Why is everyone gaga for Zangetsu? We've seen nothing of him, so we can't gauge him as a character and I'd say his suit was the worst, just for how boring it is in comparison, if it wasn't for Gritton whose suit is downright hideous.

Even if he does turn out to be a total boss, his suit is so boring I have no interest in having a toy of him at all.

Because some people really like the suit, some are completionists and then there's one guy who thinks he's hot. :lol

I don't see how the suit can be boring. Gold and white are a boss combo, and the green just punches it up with colour. Plus he's got a really sweet sheild and a cool head crest with sweet curved shoulder pads.

Baron has the worst suit to me, and even then I still like it.

You missed the crucial part, in comparison, compared to gorgeous suits like Gaim's or outrageously awesome suits like Ryugen, Zangetsu just sorta looks like a samurai tampon.

I'm not huge on Baron's in your face fruit design, but episode two made me think I might end up loving this guy regardless.

Personally, the sleekness of Zangetsu's design is what gets to me. And, if you'll allow me to make up complete garbage, the suit screams, "confidence."

"Yeah, I know I'm not as complex as all of those other suits. You got a problem?"

Really, it all comes down to personal taste.

You're point is kind of undercut when you're unable to articulate it without saying shit like that.

Tampon? Really? Why, because he's white?

Zangetsu was originally the suit I liked the most, because it was the most "normal" out of them, after I got used to the Fruit motif, I realized it's kinda simple.
But still a cool design, and his powered up form is simply gorgeous.

:lol

It was a joke man. I don't hate the suit, cool your jets, I just think it's kinda boring compared to all the others.

Except Gritton, he genuinely looks like a Kamen Rider turd.

I always thought Griton looked like a Cybertronian out of Hearts of Steel.

I have warmed up to it, it's quite unique even if brown is boring as heck.

Plus from all the interviews it seems he'll be a major player in the show.

I like it.

I don't care what you think of the suits, it's the gross vulgarity with which you describe them.

He looks prety cool there, actually.

Brown's always been a cool colour to me. It represents Earth and natural colours. And in Bionicle my favourite Toa were usually the brown Stone ones.

Tampons are vulgar? That is kinda mean to them.

You just can't help yourself, can you?

Indeed he looks boss, like some cross of a castle and a knight.

I've never liked brown, but this design needed that color.

Lol no.

But I do like the idea of comparing Gritton to a chess piece, that makes me appreciate the design more.

For those who are still looking for AC Gaim & AC Baron, Hobby Search has both of them in stock right now.

I just got Gaim, cause I don't PLAN on going all in on the line. Right now, I'm just going to get AC Gridon also, cause I love that suit!

So far I like all the suits. It took me a bit to get used to Baron, but seeing him in motion sold the design. I liked the three from the beginning, and I love the shade of green they use on Ryugen.

It was a very vulgar way of describing it.

But not wrong :p



So far only design I don't care for is Ryugen. I'm not even sure why. I do know why I like the others though. Gaim is nicely samurai (and Pine Arms has a cool flail), Baron is to silly yet badass to hate, Zangetsu pulls off white after Labor Day, and Gritton makes me think hun warrior for some reason.

Toywise though, I'm looking at my options, but I think I'll be getting at least one AC.

I finally have the first two Arms Change figures on the way. Cant wait to see how they turned out.

I dont know if this has been posted yet. But here is a video of the Budou Lockseed/Sounds.

Ryugens sounds are really annoying...

My AC Gaim still hasn't left Tokyo yet :( it's been there for five days now - I guess four if you don't count Sunday, but still, what the hell are they doing?! /desperation.

I wonder why Ryugen's lock has those three buttons. :O

Not sure if the right place, but this is a really cool custom:

DAMN! That is great

Also found this, probably our best look at AC Zangetsu so far.

Man that figure looks so damn sexy. Its a shame his release is so far away

Found Pineapple arms:

Another proof that Pine Arms looks great when he doesnt have his floppy shoulder armor.

Yep, the AC looks great, but the suit's shoulderpads... ugh.

So...am I guessing right and his weapon is going to have a poseable wire?

I was thinking a simple string, but who knows.

now that you mention it this seems to be more likely.

Where can I buy pineapple arms from?!

Pine looks good on Gaim, but awful on Baron :lol

Yeah Pine Arms just does not work on Baron

Not out yet, I think.

Probably after Ryugen.

Pine Gaim is the best looking AC imo.
Baron... at least he tries. :lol

I disagree, Pine looks pretty cool on Baron

Just in case you haven't seen Ryugen yet:

Even though Ryugen is my least favorite design of the base suits (which doesnt say much cause I pretty much like all of them) his figure looks really great.
