if you really want i can list off every thing i subjectively dislike of the figure

i have touched one one one them already. the handling of the car roof car kibble. that should be part of the coat sides along with the hood not the sides of the car as the coat is black not green

 

all i want to know is, CAN THE DOOR PANELS(basically almost all of the side of the car) hinge in a way so they end up as the sides of the trenchcoat?

 

I don't know why some of you are treating 'objective' like it's a dirty word lol

It's a pretty clear-cut definition.

 

yes

 

It's not objective because it's not something that affects everyone. Therefore it's subjective because it's not a detrimental flaw of the toy. It's a completely optional display feature therefore it being poorly implemented only affects you and others that use that feature.

What am I supposed to understand from this mess? Because I haven't once said it is not a flaw. It's just not an objective flaw because it doesn't affect the majority. My whole point has been that you should stop trying to say the flaw is "objective" because it's not accurate to the word's use and it does not make your criticism any more valid saying it. An objective flaw is something like ER Grapple's pegs, the clear plastic legs of the Datsuns,Pointblank's lack of biceps. yellowing plastics etc. Things that either actively limit the figure, engineering flaws or you have to constantly be wary off when handling the figure. THOSE are actual flaws figures can suffer from and of course there are others aswell. Everything else is subjective and can vary from person to person personally. It's all driven by opinions and emotions therefore making those flaws by definiton subjective.

Nobody was ignoring the flaws and read what a i said above. Just stop trying to frame said elements as "objective" flaws of the toy

I don't know what to tell you when I have been clearly repeating myself over and over. Either way, I do not ittend to continue this so take what you will from all I said

 

I'm failing to see how it is poorly implemented. That piece is meant to rotate for transformation and would have probably used a balljoint anyways. Since ball-jointed pieces can pop apart, it's a no-brainer for a quick solution to cleaning up the back if so desired. It isn't an advertised feature and may not have been intentional, it really comes off as "hey, you can do this if you want" going by Sam Smith's post. It isn't poorly implemented since that ball joint connection was done for the transformation. Unless I'm missing something, it's pretty much a fan mode or something except it happened to come from the designer. Even if it was intentional, it's pretty cool that they kept that in mind for people that might want to do that.

I just don't see how it is objective to say it's poorly implemented since it is a part of the engineering to rotate that piece. Objectively "flawed"? Sure, since that involves removing a big chunk of the vehicle to get a cleaner look, I can see that being objectively flawed. But I'd say that whether the implementation is poor or not is subjective. I think it is pretty smart not to advertise that but let people know that its possible to do so. Either way, it doesn't hurt anyone and everyone wins all around since you don't have to remove it to transform it, but it can do so if you desire. A win=win.

Well, you're someone that typically uses that word to disregard someone's opinion on something and come off as condescending, so of course you don't see a problem with it.

People may not like it because, more often than not, especially on these boards, it's used to invalidate someone as if someone is looking down on them.

 

"This feature is poorly implemented" is a subjective opinion. "Poorly" is a subjective judgment. By definition. I agree with you that it is poorly implemented, but that simply means my subjective opinion is aligned with yours, and you don't know what objective means.

 

Apparently they can, but they would have to flex around parts of the car so kinda no?

 

That’s a fan made model if I’m not mistaken. The coat isn’t actually that black. Here’s some better and more accurate renders (albeit not as high quality):



Interestingly tho, this concept render makes it seem as though they were originally planning to change the colors of the cape to differentiate AOE Crosshairs from TLK Crosshairs:

As seen in the films, however, this concept appears to have been abandoned in favor of just reusing the AOE model:

 

i know i would forgive everything else on the figure if they could

 

It’s not that objective is a dirty word it’s that it’s being used wrong.

An objective statement would be “SS Crosshairs looks thin when the trench coat is pulled up for flightstand poses.”

However, when you start saying that it is a bad quality is when it goes from objective to subjective. Cause a lot of people, myself included, aren’t bothered by it.

 

As much as Crosshairs is a pretty good figure, I still hate how they did the trench coat.

 

Effecting every one is not part of the definition of objective. Stop trying to force a goal post

It is poorly implemented b cause to use the action stand port the kibble must be removed or pulled away from the figure in a way that make the sides look Inc molete and flat.

I never said the kibble removal way poorly implemented like you are suggesting i did

It really is not.

You all are acting as if pointing out objectively the flight stand implementation is flawed is trashing the whole figure and should be tossed out.

You all need help if this is what is getting you so worked up over a chunk of plastic

Interesting the tlk version is closer then first thought in terms of coat

Ehh fuck it do not care enough to correct all the typos

 

I don't speak Taco Bell.

 

I like the mold but this thing really needs a premium finish version of itself or something cuz that paint job is ew

 

Does anyone know someone we can ask or message primevsprime to take pictures of that in action?

 

Thats little caesars

 

Same problem that's plagued Crosshairs from the beginning (outside of the Autobots United five-pack version). That car deco sucks up all the paint budget, leaving nothing behind for the robot mode detailing.

 

I definitely feel comfortable adding *most* of the robot mode details myself... except the black striping across his legs and shoulders. I hope Reprolabels will step up for that.

 

definitely think that when the aoe version happens he will get more paint similarly to what happened to sideswipe
