Hrmm....it looks really good, I'm ready for the orange one. Hoping for Toy head instead of Mutant head
Seriously, this might be the best Kingdom Beast Wars figure so far. Is basically perfect. (Ah, shame about that gut gun storage though).
Holy!! I was expecting merely an upscale of the Cheetor (repainted obviously) and we got so much more! The proportions are almost exactly spot on and some things are done better than the Masterpiece. My only complaint is I wish all of the green was metallic. Hoping this comes soon, like September. Give us that pre-order, Hasbro!
It's pretty impressive how they took 90% of the transformation from Cheetor, but tweaked everything in little ways that vastly improve the figure. The shape of the torso, the way the beast legs actually collapse into the calves rather than sitting on the front of them, the way the arms work allowing them to have less kibble - they're all small changes individually, but combined they make him look so much better than Cheetor.
He turned out pretty decent, but man his thighs are such a cop out and the yellowing is utterly disgusting. It’s like PMOP’s preyellow. You really can’t beat BWMPs huh. @PrimeVsPrime you reckon 99.8% isopropyl alcohol can remove the yellowing?
I feel so off about this figure. They get so much right but then so much wrong, it feels like Dinobot all over again. They nailed the headsculpt on the bot mode and I like how the bot head collapses into the tiger head but the front legs are too thin for me, the gut gun literally just hangs there, and the paint job makes it look like it is already yellowing like the original Tigatron toy did. Maybe it will grow on me like Dinobot but I am honestly not sure. So far the cat bots are the weakest beast figures in kingdom for me.
Tiger mode is a little... gaunt? The neck seems too long and the ankles are too thin. The feet also look more like Great Dane feet than big ol' tiger mitts. Otherwise he looks great. Literally shows it storing underneath the tiger mode. Though I don't think many really care, it's just good that he has it at all. Like Primal's swords I'm glad they forewent integrated storage in order to have better looking weapons. I'd be surprised if a mainline toy could. MPs should be unbeatable, they're MPs.
