[SPLIT LIP]

On the subject of which form better represents Takatora: I feel like they were used about evenly by Takatora himself, though we at least saw Energy transform more than once. Still, Melon Energy was used when Takatora was more ignorant/misguided to what was happening around him, wheras Melon reflects him as a "good guy" at the end. I feel like both have equal place in a display, but I like Melon more aesthetically and liked Takatora as a hero more.

I just think there's far too many exclusives in the Gaim line. Exclusives should be a rarity themselves, hence the term exclusive. Making half the cast an exclusive doesn't give collectors incentive to buy them, it makes them less inclined to get them at all like I was. Mainf orms as exclusives is nonsense. I get why Gridon and Kurokage and Bravo and movie riders and, hell, even Duke are exclusives. But Baron's final form? Shin Zangetsu? Marika? These aren't minor characters.
