12 minutes ago, BaCon said:Even if you do like them, it seems like Rhinox is just a terrible choice for a figure, no matter what they do. Maybe it will take an MP to do it right, but it seems to be an issue with any bulky animal forms like elephants, bison, etc they have to make a shell for the beast mode that always compromises the robot form.
Which is odd since you'd think they'd hide some of that kibble in the big barrel chests that Rhinox toys have. If they engineered it right, most of it could go there. There's normally quite a bit of kibble on Rhinox's design but you're right in that they perhaps make too much kibble with his toys.
For me, I just couldn't care less about MP Beast Wars figures anymore after Kingdom. Other than Airazor. Make her already. The rest I won't be getting anymore. I did want them though but not anymore. I just don't do MP figures unless I have to and I don't have to anymore for BW characters. Sorry Takara.
Just make Airazor though and soon.
