    I hated that talk about the wrong hand color on Ratchet. Ugh...

    or... and hear me out...

    "i like the figure i already have better" is also a valid opinion! sometimes people just have preferences that aren't pedantic, or don't want to buy 2-5 of the same character because "they all have pros and cons."

    That's literally what I said. But it often doesn't stop there. You get people who start breaking it down to shades of a color or head sculpt. Because they feel like if they say "I like an older version better" they'll be hanged in effigy. That's why the Waspinator thing was so embarrassing. People come in to this situation thinking Hasbro wants them to replace their old stuff every time. But that isn't the case. It's never the case. Because that market is so small if they counted on it they'd have gone out of business years ago.

    you said people already having one is fine, but you also said people who claim any one is better just don't think they're equal when your wording made it seem like it's a petty grievance thing or something. maybe i misread.

    While it isn't the absolute best, I'll be fine with the the TR version, at least I know I'll be able to get one. Because I already have it.

    I think this may be my final perceptor and if I were to get another it would have to really blow me out of the water.

    That headsculpt looks even better than the initial pictures. I was worried for a bit, but he looks great.

    While I never got the TR version, this doesn’t look to be much of an improvement. It looks good, I just think the empty forearms and less detailing drag it down. Still, nice to see the head has improved from the renders. I might pick it up if I ever see it.

    This is supposed to be the movie Perceptor, so that's accurate.

    It's called Studio Series 86, that's the point.

    I’m not super enthusiastic about some of the design choices, but it looks pretty good overall (plus I’ve got an addiction to feed!)

    Yeah the render was kind of odd, glad it turned out fine.

    The head looks better than it originally did. The white outline on the chest still looks weird, though, and the nice look of the front is kinda spoiled knowing there's a big hole in the back of the figure for the head (which will be easily fixed, but that's the basic sort of thing you'd hope you don't have to fix).
