Okay, so personally I know this is quite a controversial matter. Some people like to keep sets the same as they way they come in which is great and prevents too much OTT modding. Once you start tweaking a set its hard to stop.
When the new sets come in 2015 are you planning on modding/tweaking them at all? Could be simple like swapping a few amour shells around or major like completely overhauling a set.
For me, I think I am going to add lime green to replace the keetorange on Lewa. From what I have seen the colour scheme just doesnt seem to sit right with me. I think I may also give Lewa the Lime Green bones from Pohatu, giving him the black ones and trying the Keetorange on him.
These are all just things I am going to try. Not set in stone. They may look absolutely horrible but we will have to wait and see.
I suppose that is fairly simple, what with a locking mechanism already being implemented into some sets like Kopaka and Pohatu. Its just a case then of replicating it for both sides.
Well you could keep the aesthetic of the gear system with out actually having a moving one if that would work better for you. Unless its the look of the gear system you are not fond of.
I’ll just see what will happen when I get the sets for myself. According to TTV’s reviews on the Comic Con builds the gear system doesn’t seem to hinder poseablity like the older sets with gears did.
