a little bit of both. The arms pull out due to trans formation and while you have it out like that you can swivel them up and down.

this review shows what I mean.

My opinion is still that the Legacy Dragonzord looks great on its own, but sucks in any combo. I'm on the fence if it was worth $80, but just feeling the weight of it makes me mostly okay with it. The beautiful paint apps & molded details also help.

The visible face in his mouth bugs me to no end. The box outright LIES about it. And they bother to make the red eyes disappear when the face is visible, but then why not just have the whole face flip up and down like the original figure?!

Also, anyone know a way to give the Legacy Dragonzord ZordBuilder arms without the 2010 Mastodon? The legs are pretty straight-forward.

ok...is it me, or if you add a cape this is essentially Vega form for the Dragonzord?

So as cool as the Legacy Dragonzord looks after having him for half a day I have to say I kind of still like my vintage Dragonzord better. Why?

When you combine it with the Megazord parts, the way the Legacy Dragonzord is supposed to connect with the Saber-toothed Tiger and Triceratops doesn't seem to like to stay installed. The die cast in his feet tend to pull the legs downward when you pick it up.

The feet also seem to sit too far out from the zords compared to the original as well, which makes them look odd as they kind of 'float' out ahead of the rest of the legs like deformed knees.

Also, the staff with the Dragonzord tail being so insanely HUGE makes it almost impossible for it stand on its own. The tail is just way too big. Which also prevents you really from doing the combined mode with Dragonzord's body on top of the Megazord accurately.

Basically it feels like the Dragonzord was more or less designed to be just in its regular form mainly and the combined with the Megazord modes as kind of the afterthought.

This is exactly what I've been saying for months. While everyone else gushed over it and overlooked it's apparent flaws.

I just like the standard mode and the poncho mode.

Hmm, the more I see it the more "eh" I get about it. I love Dragon Caesar's design but for an $80 toy aimed at adult collectors I feel they could've done much better. The combination modes are pretty awful. To put it in context, $80 is how much Hasbro sell their imports of the Masterpiece Transformers and there's a big difference in getting your money's worth with them. Either then the Diecast, this guy's not really notably superior to an average BOJ mecha which retails at about $40.

I'm not going to cancel my order because I do want Dragon Caesar and the Legacy Dragonzord is still a hell of a lot cheaper then an original.

What? People have been going on about it's problems since we've seen the combined modes.

I have no problem with the way he looks combined on top of Daizyujin. However, the drill is just way too big (they should have given him a smaller one just for the combined forms) and the partial combo form looks okay. However, the appeal is getting Dragon Ceasar on his own since it is very unlikely to ever have a SRC version.
