    Just got Drift tonight, and I love the potential for sword & blade poses. However, ROTF Bludgeon was really awesome in the same way...

    Drift. The articulation seems to work for endless poses, where Bludgeon was limited in the arm area, IMO.

    Drift. Wrist articulation wins it for him.

    Drift, not only does he have more of them, but you can stand the guy up on one bloody leg.

    Drift, the amount of weapons he can use is much higher than bludgeon and there is no fear of his fingers snapping off.

    Plus as awesome as bludgeon is, his feet are difficult to position correctly without him falling over.

    When I saw the first few words of the title, I knew it had to be between these two. I've been debating it myself quite a bit.

    Drift wins because of the superior articulation and the greater number of swords. Also, although it has nothing to do with the poses, the "Peerless under heaven" writing on the blade is so wintastic it's insane.

    Drift, easily. He's jointed much better for it, and just plain looks better doing it.

    God I love that figure.

    Uh...no he isn't.

    He has two figures.

    The first ROTF Bludgeon figure is a Wreckage repaint.

    lol come on. The default ROTF Bludgeon whenever someone mentions him should be the Voyager skull-faced robot samurai from Hell.

    As much as I love Bludgeon, Drift has him beat in this department.

    Drift just looks way too clunky and kibbly. Like he can pose real good, but it takes him an hour to get in and out of every one, and the battle's already ended.

    I wouldn't call it kibble since he's pretty much identical to his comic book design and the side panels actually serve a purpose.

    He's also very easy to pose.
