Kind of a weird choice but his portrait has them slightly in some artworks. Aesthetically a little sus. I like storms take on it tbh, a little too much shading there

Took me a while to figure out he was talking about the striations.

Meant to say ordered one from someone that will be arriving sometime in june. Edit function ate my followup. I hope it turns out good. These are what they look like. I ordered one for Ryu as well. Maybe if it turns out well I'll get one made for his hyper fighting look (light blue). But that would require painting his headband which shouldn't be too hard. That evil ryu cloth really pops, might have to grab him. Dhalsim and M Bison (vega) are releasing soon. With that in mind making a full X-men Vs Street Fighter/marvel vs capcom display is becoming a reality. It will be fun making that display.

If it doesn’t turn out good I know a seamstress that may be able to hook you up.

Spiral mustve been someones xmen-fu to make a figure this good. One step closer to a full xmen cota display.
Very cool artwork on the box.

I liked the idea when I first saw it in the cartoon, but then I realized the transformation is basically the dude carrying an entire motorcycle on his back on human legs.

I looked at the twit post and even translated but didnt find anything about purchasing/release. Do you know if this is available anywhere? Like Kern said, the Mospeada and Robotech Third Gen toys are insanely priced. This one looks rad as hell.

daaaaamn, still outta my price range. Ah well, thanks man.
In other news, they finally annouced the Studio Series Swoop and I was able to preorder him from BBTS (not sure why I didnt think of BBTS when asking about the Mospeada fig). Hasbro is already sold out on a preorder (??) so BBTS to the rescue for like $5 more.

It'll be nice to put him with his brothers. I'll finally have *all* the OG Dinobots. I never had anyone other than Slag as a kid. And these studio molds are as close to Masterpiece without actually being Masterpiece. Not quite as complex of course, but much much better than even the Leader/Commander class figs.
The Grimlock one is frickin badass.

Local shop was 50% off and I don't really have any Star Wars figs and always kind of dug these smaller scale ones.

Anyone see these new Mega Man figures yet? Kinda excited there are finally quality Robot Master figures rather than just the lead cast and big villains. I've always had a thing for Mega Man action figures. Because it's all robots, the joints make sense rather than always looking just out of place.

My buddy has a small youtube channel where he does figure reviews and he just did these and he really liked them.
