    Look at the curve of the pack in altmode - where the pouches clip on in botmode, there's more of a tilt than the Wu version - to me, that would push it out slightly to a 'fuller' angle, would like to see a side by side profile comparison.

    It may make the belly a little hollow, but if the rubber is thick enough, it shouldn't press in too much?

    I don't know, it just still seems to sleek to be accurate. Maybe the figure is just too tall, but it needs to start lower down and out a lot more to be actually round, not just curved.

    Well, I've dropped my Dr Wu preorder, fingers crossed this'll be out soon!!

    Wonder what, if anything, that rack in altmode does?

    Wouldn't be bothered too much if it just clipped on the back in robot mode, makes the altmode look much better, imo

    Holy Necropost Batman!

    Still no update on this?

    Had hoped a preorder would've been announced by now (with their not-Blurr coming out soon-ish)

    Losing faith, looking at a Dr Wu Mercenary kit in-stock now.... Need someone (or something) to talk me off the ledge... :D

    I guessing this didn't make it to market?
