It basically disabled the articulations in those areas. Had the cloth part was made of fabric, or at least flexible PVC plastic (like on SHF Buffa), then the articulations would've been way better and worked as intended. Accuracy- and proportion-wise, they were even better than Ex-Aid SHF's (hello Ex-Aid, Genm, Cronus, and Para-DX). Their accuracy and proportion were at least equal to Build or Zi-O SHF's.

Toy sales do not always correlate with the quality of the story. There are other series with equally bad or even worse stories as Ghost's, yet their SHF's and other toys sold well. Revice and (God forbid) Geats were waaay worse than Ghost, story-wise, but their SHF's have been selling well.

I completely DISAGREE- Geat and Revice were miles ahead of Ghost being ?good? or better story wise- that?s your opinion, this is mines, and most of fandom agrees that Ghost was the worst series in Heisei era. Geats was FUN, Ghost was a CHORE to get through. In this case, not just the terrible articulation of the figures came into play, but the Japanese audience wasn?t into it either.
Ghost was way more of a disappointment than Geats by far
