I stopped caring about scale years ago. I mean, Galvatron was huge compared to Rodimus Prime, but they were the same size in the cartoon.

I dont mind the scale at all,its not like wizard is 4 inches shorter.And by the time you're posing him and Fourze in whatever pose you put them in,you're not even going to notice the difference.

Wizard looks great, certainly with that parts-count, but in terms of proportion and detail he could've used some improvements. He might not be Accel levels of deformed in the head, but it's enough to hold off an instantaneous purchase. It already looks like Flame Dragon might be fixing those little things.
In some ways, the WAP version of Flame Style actually turned out better than the Figuart, and that feels wrong. Someone showed off a parts-swap between the two, giving the WAP the SHF belt, hands and head... it made a world of difference.

Yeah, but maybe Haruto is shorter than Gentarou (though, I think that the suit actor is the same). I don't think it'll be that noticeable, since I probably won't have him posed next to Fourze anyway.

Like I said, Wizard's shoulder pads aren't as flat as Fourze's. They start at the same place coming from the torso, but Wizard's curve down instead of continuing and then going down at an angle like Fourze's.

I am so damn happy I have this guy preordered on Amazon. Cannot wait for mine to get here next month. He is a thing of beauty, and I love the stand.
Also happy to see the parts count on him, counting the fists he comes packaged with attached he has a total of 6 pairs of hands, plus his Swordgun in both modes, an extra belt, an alternate front for the driver, an extra robe piece, and that beautiful stand. The proportions don't really look that off to me either, I think he looks great.

I looked at the photo again of Fourze and Wizard side by side,the only difference is Wizard's forearms are a little longer.If you trace the separation of the torso/stomach,the shoulders,neck,knee joints,all that,they are exactly the same.I think the rings on his fists give the illusion of him being disproportional.

At least it seems like there's an easy fix for the chest, someone on 2chan did this(original on the left, fixed on right)... ...with just a little tissue paper. I bought a sheet of thin black foam at Michael's tonight for when my Wizard arrives, to use instead of the tissue paper, since I don't know exactly what they did with that. |

Whoa. That fix of course does nothing about the chest design or the way the cloak looks far more like a dress, but that's a huge improvement regardless. Who knew adding something to make the sockets more shallow would make such a difference!
