Thanks for another great review Vangelus! I am so glad that this isn't just another block with wings and little feet that we've come to associate with Swoop. I love that they tried for something more unique. Can't wait for this figure!
Ya know... I think I really like this. I get what you're saying about the legs, but I also agree that it's a nice change from the norm. Wouldn't mind picking one of these up some day.
Excited to get this guy soon! I have enjoyed the last two releases and was worried Volar was going to be delay like Cubar was. Any idea when the web stores will be getting their stocks? Thanks for the review!!
Doesn't AOE Strafe's articulation allow him to stand up like that in alt mode? The toy was directly based off the concept art, which had him standing in pterodactyl mode.
Sigh. I was hoping this guy wouldn't be cool so I could just stick with Caelus..... Guess I'm getting two swoops. :P I was kinda hoping you'd show them both off side by side. :-\
They do actually. In toy form. They've included the teeth based on the JP3 model. And I never said pterosaurs were dinosaurs. I said dinosaurs are flying reptiles. The first dinosaurs capable of gliding show up in the Middle Jurassic with Anchiornis, to be followed by animals such as Archaeopteryx. In the Cretaceous you have animals like Microraptor and Sinornithosaurus which have a unique four winged structure. I'm a a palaeontologist. Actually, I'm a pterosaur specialist.
well that's an action feature. JP3 and JW have it sculpted it rather than pull out. Pretty crappy toyline overall tbh. No where near the old level. Shame, 2011 had some AWESOME new molds
Too little, too late for me. The 1st two were hude disappointments for me. I won't be touching any future ones no matter how much they improve. *drop mic*
