Figure is larger, and has more joints overall. It's just that 3 of them are only useful for transformation, which was what I was trying to say all along. The more joints you use for the transformation, the less you can use for the robot. HotHead's simpler transformation allows for all his joints to be used on the robot articulation.
Didn't we already come to this conclusion? Math equations do not really work for things that are not equal. You're right though, the Megs has more POA because he needs them. Hot head does not need them bc he turns into a head. My point, which I thought I made pretty clear was that a smaller figure could have good articulation. This figure could be the size as Hothead without losing anything. Granted, the mold probably wouldn't last near as long or you may have to make it by hand, I don't know really. But a smaller design of this figure could be done.
That's really all I have to say. I understand why the figure is the size it is, I can count the number of POA's it has, and I understand you like it the way it is. Personally, I would like it slightly smaller, and I do not thing I'd have to sacrifice any articulation in doing so.
