Honestly, any flaws with the combined mode I can forgive, due to the fact that back in 2010 I'm pretty sure BoA had no plans to make a Dragonzord, so those of you saying it was an afterthought...you're probably right because of what I just mentioned. I think it looks good all things considered...granted for $80 some LEDs would have been nice, or maybe another, smaller drill piece for the weapon (Although the size doesn't bother me too much, and I can live without the electronics).
I just thought I'd jump in here and give my 2 cents.
Oh I definitely agree. There is no indication that there were ever any plans outside of the 2010 Megazord. And unfortunately rather than creating a nice new figure for the Legacy line the 2010 Megazord was simply reused with diecast. Which worked fine, until now.
But because of this whole zord builder thing that means anything designed to go with it later is handicapped by that feature. Hence the Legacy Dragonzord being what it is. If BOA had just made a nice new Megazord originally instead then we'd have a more appropriate Dragonzord now as a companion piece. It's primarily the zord builder system inclusion that makes the Legacy Dragon less than what it should be.

For what this thing is supposed to be, based on the standards of today, I feel like the issues it has are kind of an eyesore. I'm vocal here because this thing retails for $80. It's a high priced exclusive that's being scalped to hell and back and despite some pretty detrimental design flaws that make what it sells for just at normal retail, seem like way too much. People are unfortunately paying way too much for this thing. I admit it's a cool toy, but it's just not the Dragonzord/Caesar we should have gotten. The weight/overuse of diecast, tail, head fin, face in mouth, zord builder ports, issues etc make me not want this thing.
