I'm kind of confused over how Legacy Tigerzord would be Zord Builder, since it's design, nor the Thunder Zords', actually combine...It's just armor. Where would they be able to place the Zord Builder pieces on the tiger that would allow you to, you know...Use them?

That's the whole thing. Bandai will likely just shove them wherever and compromise the design of the toy to accommodate the feature anyway. They handicapped the Dragonzord because it had to be interactive with the Legacy Megazord as a Zordbuilder. Had the 2010 Megazord been designed in the beginning without that gimmick in place then we could have a more stable final product than we do right now. Or if they had simply taken the time to do more than add diecast to the 2010, perhaps even creating a new better mold, then the Dragonzord being what it is could have been averted as well.

The Tigerzord does not need Zordbuilder. As a piece in the collectors line, not the mass retail line, it shouldn't use that system. It should be a nice high end release that isn't hampered by such a gimmick. Since it'll be the first of the Thunderzord releases it should be designed well from the beginning and then everything else could be based around it properly.

These are the things that should happen. But I guarantee they won't.

No that isn't what should happen. That is what you want to happen.

Make the arms/front legs attach by Zord Builder ports, maybe the Tigerzord's head, or even just stick some randomly on the back of its hind legs. Because why not?

I agree that not including them is what should happen. This isn't the for-kids gimmick line. It's for collectors and there's no reason to compromise anything for the gimmick.

Looks awesome! Tigerzord was the last mecha I had as a kid, so I have some pretty strong memories associated with it. Hopefully it's not Zordbuilder, but it won't be a big problem if it is; if it's anything like Dragonzord I wouldn't mind at all.

A friend and I were just talking about a Legacy Saba last week.

At 1/1 scale, Saba's going to be even bigger than the Dagger.

Nah, Den-O's right here. An expensive collectible specifically aimed at adult buyers should not compromise it's design for gimmicks specifically targeted at very small children.

Dragonzord compromised for it and the Tiger would have to compromise even more for it. That's not a good thing no matter how you spin it.
