    Considering how much of a panelformer he is, idk that there is much that could have been done to fix that area aside from revamping the transformation.

    This MP36 is the BMB. They have changed the name to release him.

    Not sure if you're following me exactly. I don't care about the slightly messy back of the figure - it's a transformer, it doesn't bother me, and I'm never particularly interested in those aftermarket covers that are sometimes made to 'clean up' various aspects of various figures. What I'm talking about is those specific parts I listed that were solid in the prototype but were hollowed out for the final figure. Those could easily be fixed in a KO by filling them back in and would improve the figure a little, imho.

    I hadn't noticed that until you pointed it out but now that I do see it it's a horrifying trend.

    The only thing i would really have liked is for them to have found a way to give him more of a midsection so you don't get the feeling his chest is coming out of his crotch. But i guess his transformation makes that impossible.

    You'd probably be better off getting parts from a ko if yours broke than from takara.

    They dont give one s**t about helping you if you dont live in japan. They just want your money.

    Really? Look at the photo of the figure listed above. Check the pointed part atop the right shoulder. There's a waffled divider between two hollowed segments that comprise this point rather than having it be one solid plastic offshoot.

    This is about hollow parts like the legs and arms of Generations Jetfire sneaking into premium-priced items like the MP line.

    $53? Damn, that's basically insta-buy territory if the craftsmanship is good. Which version is this again?
