TFU .

As per Fanstyle - "Through out many tests of the product, they realized the original screw on the toy are too soft and weak. It is easy to damage the screws through repeading removal, therefore they included additional enhanced harden screws with this kits. The additional screw driver is to provided additional convenience for users."

these look really good. not sure I'm that bothered about getting them though. I only have Prowl and he's not going to flip anyone off. He might flip a table though.

Why do we always configure poseable fingures into the Bird? :lol:

(I did it with my Unicron, Primus, Metroples....MP Star Scream...MP Prime...)

They look pretty good, but aren't those fingers a bit long?

Yea, they're a bit long.

But this pic is clutch:

I've said it before, I'll say it again: Articulated hands are fiddly as ****! Give me swappable pre-pose hands any day

Just don't think the new hands match the aesthetics of the toy. The fingers look overly long and weirdly sculpted.

The fingers look kinda long. But so far I'm interested.

I went to highschool with a dude with fingers like that.
Nice enough guy, but he could touch his fingers together around an apple.

The fingers are a bit long, but they do look cool both holding the rifle & close fisted.

I may be interested in these if the price is decent.

That's kinda why I don't think I'm buying into these. I'm really not upset with the factory hands on the MPs, and I really don't want to start buying new pairs of hands for all my MPs either. They look cool, I hope they do well, and I hope they are able to hold the figures' guns better. But I'm content with the standard hands.

These things will be flimsy and fiddly, mark my words.

I'm all for articulated hands and i think these are pretty good.

They can be polished a bit more in regards to the aesthetics. They could make them a little less boxy and maybe taper the finger tips a bit or have the fingers different lengths.
Nobody has designed a a set of hands like that yet. That look like real hands.

I don't know a great deal about Master Grade on up after a certain point, as my Gundam collecting habits are sporadic, but I'd say Zeonic style manipulators are the closest thing to that in terms of looks. That in mind, even the few old MGs I have have taught me to hate moving fingers in any form, just give me solid pre-pose hand sets and call it a day. >:oP
