I heard this somewhere else, too. I loved Shrapnel but when Bombshell arrived he blew Shrapnel away. With no waist articulation I find it hard to believe Kickback is the most poseable but we shall see.


yeah i forgot to mention the waist joint, or lack thereof, but my opinion stands:

the way i see it is that his hips are unhindered (like Shrapnels') but are more slender so the knees bend better, i.e. the calves don't get in the way of the thighs. also the arm articulation is the most robust of the three, with a wrist swivel and more intuitively arranged shoulder pads it makes for a less fiddly posing experience.

I see. Shrapnel's hips suck. Very surprisingly poor for an FP figure.
