diversity? are you kidding me
instead of talking about how much its not cartoon accurate and nitpick everything about it
one could say since its a "Generations" toy that being said it was never meant to be show accurate but look more modern better design just like all the other Generations toys looks better than the show or the original toy, he looks tougher more bad-ass!

Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.
So what you're saying is that they should've done the same "fake" chest they've done with car/jet formers in the past even though the fandom always crucifies them every time they do itSabrblade wrote:Not unless they work some magic and "cheat" a bit, to give him a giant jaw in robot mode and normal jaw in beast mode.![]()

Neither do I. I figure if they make the bot mode look better then why complain.Dead Metal wrote:Arctorro wrote:So what you're saying is that they should've done the same "fake" chest they've done with car/jet formers in the past even though the fandom always crucifies them every time they do itSabrblade wrote:Not unless they work some magic and "cheat" a bit, to give him a giant jaw in robot mode and normal jaw in beast mode.![]()
I don't complain about those instances.

And, how does "being a Generations toy" automatically excuse a TF toy from being fiction-accurate? Look at all of the WFC/FOC and IDW G1 Generations toys. Those are all very fiction-accurate. The Classics-style era is practically dead at this point, what with a greater sense of uniformity and consistency occurring between the toys and the fiction rendering toy-only updates superfluous.

The only downside with Rhinox is that he reminds me that I still can't find the Robot Masters/Telemocha Optimus Primal anywhere.![]()
Please Hasbro, make my life easier (and probably cheaper) and release that figure in the US also.
