    So I just got MP05 Megs in the mail today, yeah I know I'm behind the times but I got the second run.

    I skipped the first run due to the less positive reviews focusing on his QC problems and his inability to hold himself up.

    I haven't transformed him yet but I took him out and tested his points of articulated and couldn't believe how much he does have! Maybe I just missed some good pics but all I'd seen of him thus far had him straight up and square like he came in the box. Little did I know that he was capable of the sorts of poses as I have him in here!

    Note that this is a free-standing pose that holds quite well and widening and lowering and widening his centre of gravity really helps alleviate his top-heavyness. From what I'd seen I thought he was much more rigid than this, so this is a very nice surprise (now to transforming...)

    Yup, he's quite poseable, the only thing he is really missing is an above the elbow swivel.

    Yeah, Megs is somewhat poseible, but in a I'm scared to snap something off kind of a way.
