I noticed that too. I guess that version is the permanent one. I wonder why they felt that design was better.

They went with aesthetics over functionality, I assume.

It's a day of the week ending in Y, so Hisashi Yuki has taken to Twitter to show off some more of not only Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-24 Star Saber (in his vehicle form and with Brain of Courage at the controls), but also the soon-to-arrive wave of Legends deluxes, Arcee, Chromia and Windblade - check out the mirrored image below!

Let's not be to harsh on our Kabuki fembot. Sure the base mold is kind of iffy but once you get a hold of the real thing, you might change you mind. Same thing happened when it came to MP-BB. In pics, he kinda sucked but in real time.....amazing.

Star Saber is a definate buy for me.
Arcee looks like she comes with the crappy open hands that can barely grip her blasters....that's a bummer. I hope they ship her with the closed hands or that might be a deal breaker for me.

Maybe some company can come up with a better gun that slides right into the arcee open fist. Something with an uzi clip aesthetic that pegs into the 5mm hole and slides into the smaller hole underneath. It shouldnt take a rocket scientist to design something like that.

Either way, well probably get Nautica down the line as a Windblade redeco. I'm relying on MMC for Elita-1 (and solis Prime, for that matter).

I have to agree, their Elita looks very nice, but I've seen too many quality issues on 3p products.

Mmm. Blanket generalizations really don't make sense in this context.

You're right. Mania king is fantastic, but there are others that I'm squeamish about spending the cash on, and I know nothing of MMC's quality

This is very OT for this thread, but MMC is considered one of the top, if not the top, 3rd Party company right now in terms of ingenuity and quality. I would recommend checking out the 3rd Party threads to learn more.

Elita One, I could see, but not so much Firestar or Moonracer. But if we were to get those two, they most likely wouldn't be able to have those names since Hasbro can't use them.

Though having a transforming official fembot like Elita and the other gals would be nice, might as well accept the official non transforming Artstorm fig of her in the meantime......and it's anime accurate too.
