    I may go that route. Collect only my favorite Charcters in MP, sell the ones I care less about to fund the character updates in the new WFC CHUG scale.

    Personally I'd go for it, CHUG has such a wider selection of characters to begin with and they're generally less expensive. Few are perfect of course, but if you can accept the flaws that they have they really are a great value and much more fun to handle than MP figures

    Don't forget that the majority of the color blind community actually sees some color. The people that would be color blind to blue text is blue-green color blindness, so blue, green, and similar colors look the same. So to them it's blue???? Text

    I went in when Tier 1 unlocked hoping for Tier 2, and now I feel myself wanting Tier 3 just to shut up all the people who said this would fail.

    For me it's green and grey. Have a difficult time determining the two.

    Well for one, you get Victory Leo, which is not officially made for master piece, unless you go third party.

    No victory leo, no modern articulation, takara qc is a gamble with mp starsaber joints and there own durability. “Being serious here as someone who owns the mp twice over those elbow joints are shitty”

    For starters, there is no Masterpiece Victory Saber as Takara never released Victory Leo (you can count the 3p KFC Simba if you like though).

    "Hasbro's marketing team really dropped the ball here."

    For many of us, the MP isn't an option. Both because of cost and availability. And this one comes with Leo.

    I have the MP and he has some issues. While his articulation is generally great, his ankle tilts do almost nothing. He also doesn't really hold his weapons securely- they just loosely go in his hands and would fall out if you moved him. And, on mine, his elbows are so loose he can't hold his weapons up anyways.

    Well I wasn't able to get a second one because I lucked out and got a Switch Oled. But love to see how this is steam rolling along. This thing is gonna be such a huge success and I love it
