So since no one else has posted, I take it I'm the first to get Baron in.

I wish I could say I was pleased to be such, but alas... this is a bittersweet victory.

Let me clarify: Baron himself is fine. As good a figure as you'd expect from SKC at this point, but my complaints with him are the same as Gaim - which if I didn't elaborate on previously, boils down to the Arms have a very loose
connection and have a tendency to pop off the torso if you so much as nudge them lightly, and the hands just seem ill-suited to holding the weapons for very long or while posing.

My real issue, however, is what should be my victory lap.


The end result is fine. It looks good. It looks like it should. It's still my favorite combo.

The execution is what I found lacking. You will note that, unlike the Arms Change figure, Gaim's upper torso is a proper silver like the suit itself.



This is because you can switch out the torsos fairly easily between figures. The issue then becomes... this is what's left of Baron.



As there's no spare chest part. Now you COULD just slap Gaim's chest on him, but the colors clash and of course, the look is completely inaccurate - Baron's chestplate only changes for Kiwi (green) and Lemon (black).

Now granted this is mostly just me being a whiny, nitpicky b!tc4 but after all the lengths that SKC has gone to, being left with a figure that's basically just spare parts just to Strongly Encourage you to get a second one...

Yeah, I don't know. I think this is as far as I go with the Gaim SKC line. I'll probably grab Bravo and, Godoka willing, Kamuro, but beyond this I'm... just feeling really disappointed. Part of that is almost certainly on me, but... eh.



This has been my Annual Contractually Obligated"Tali Is Disappoint" Rant.
