Zane Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 We all know what the box is like, so I'll skip that bit... The contents. Bags and two books - one for each model. Also a sticker sheet, as expected. And the figs: We'll start with White Lightning. The short gunned arms are nice, but elbows would have been appreciated. There's also a disc launcher, which is relatively pointless, as the discs fall out when swooshing and don't fire too amazingly. The sticker on there also comes off a lot. Waist articulation! Lovely. It's a simple feature that they could and should have used in other mechs too. It's not too lose, either. Onto BW then. I love this mech!! Definately my favourite villain one so far, if not my favourite one out of both sides so far. It just looks unique and weird. It's a lot of fun to build and fiddle with, too. The cockpit. Relatively simple. It's not guarded, but what does that matter when you have two huge sets of guns either side of you? This defines the set for me. Without this head, it wouldn't be as cool. The two sides of the head are adjustable. On the underside are two light boxes: Don't worry, these don't break off when you press them. The cables run through the head and into the eyes for a cool effect. Red or black pins instead of blue in the eyes would have been better though... The feet are large so support the model well. They also look a bit like the head.... The legs aren't adjustable apart from at the 'hip', and even then they only move so the 'toes' either face inwards or outwards. This doesn't restrict walking movement though, you can still pull the legs in a walking motion. Not sure what to think of this. It looks cool, but the big wheel/engine pieces lack detail. The green bullet is different to the one on the box. It's thinner and has a gap through it. Love this one though. It just looks better to me. The four fin bits add size and style. So yeah. Yeah, I love this set! WL is good, but BW is just great. Striking Venom was too big to play with and display well, but BW is better in both criterias. Though I can't justify paying Quote
Asuka Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 A great set and i am waiting gladly till i get it, but Bridge Walker definitively need some knee (and ankle) movement if he don Quote
dillthepill Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 I agree that the Bridge Walker is the coolest so far. The way the head and arms are just make it awesome. Good review. *y* Quote
Dino_Bot Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 That is one sexy mofo. Not white lighning, no, the Walker. Its so scary!!any alt models for either of them yet? Quote
