Because it looks way better than the beast hunters shockwave and the movie shockwave and is voyager scaled and fits as a figure In a classics display.

I guess it's personal taste, I can tolerate figures with backpack, but not a figure with only half of the leg and can't bend the knees.

It’s almost insulting, like they r trying not to try. See how little they can get away with. No mystery why we collect kos and 3rd party. It’s fine for kids but even they know that these r sub par.

It's not insulting. It's a specific design aimed at the younger kids like the OS commander class the had in Beast Hunters. It the "no frills" of TF's

I look back at designs we had and they were better, not hollow.
