Alright it’s time for my annual unwanted review of the sets!
First Akanu,
Overall an alright little figure. The color scheme seems fine and i actually appreciate the unique weapons. My only complaint would be how far out the shoulder pads stick. Everything else is fairly normal.
7.7/10
Alright now for this beauty, Okala
This figure is fantastic. Absolutely amazing. I’m not kidding, I love this one. The weapon, the build, and that color scheme… oh boy that coloracheme. It almost perfect, they way the green and olive mix is just amazing. The weopon also looks really good, it’s simple but well done. My ONLY complaint is the lime armor underneath the silver chest armor. I would have put a dark green size 4 armor shell there, from the secound Chima Cragger figure.
9.8/10 -I love this figure
As usual the concept art is great that’s nothing new. Good job so far guys and I’m eager to see those “patches”.
Took me a while to understand this one. I had to stare at it for a few minutes to figure out exactly what the function was, which gave me a lot of time to observe the custom build. So after figuring out that spinning the tale moved the two front legs and that your designers had effectively made your own working gearbox I was pretty impressed. And that’s definitely the strongest part of the model, the custom build and function. The issues come with not being able to figure out what exactly it is, because at first glance it looks like a hodge podge. But since I had to stare at the thing for a good while I don’t see that anymore. Overall I think this is a pretty good model.
Yeah it’s great. I’m not gonna hype it up or leave anybody hanging, this guy looks fantastic. The proportions are great, the custom build is very creative as usual. I really like this one, pretty much no notable complaints. Maybe a little jumbled looking but that’s all. Nice work guys!
In case you’re wondering the reason behind the absence of content in the recent days, it’s mostly because we are doing other stuff outside the project, some are busy with school and I could not take the necessary photos for the building instructions for a while. Anyway, this is only temporary and given that there are only 4 sets left to show, I don’t think it will take longer than this month to show them all… So, don’t worry
From what I can see, he looks alright. The initial promotional image really does not work for the model but after looking at what we can see from the instructions. He is better than the first impression. By far the biggest drawback is the LoSS face. I know that you can’t make your own face print but I think using a different piece that that chest piece would still have worked batter, it gives the head a very awkward shape. Other than that the next biggest complaint is just he way the back legs are positioned which looks somewhat awkward. After that are just minor nit-picks. The function and custom build are cool and well done. And the color-scheme really looks nice on this one.
I’m going to say, while the rest is pretty good, and better than anything I could do, I’m not a fan of how the head looks in general. I understand the limits there, but it still bothers me a little.
