I never got around to buying the Metabots figures. I would love to have them, but I just couldn't at the time. I collect Hasbro Marvel stuff as well so it's always a balancing act and I have to prioritize.
I'm worried about Digimon, but at the same time I have hope. I think the line would do better if they pushed it harder, maybe went with some more popular releases along with the older ones. I think they focused a bit too much on Adventure, even though that's my personal favorite. Oh, so that's why no one has taken pictures, Ultimate Armor X isn't news. That's a shame, I was really hoping to see at least one prototype or new figure. I've been waiting for a Protoman figure since this line started, and now that we've gotten Megaman and Bass I feel like he's got to be on their list. I'm just impatient, lol. |

Protoman is the only real thing Ive been waiting for with this line. But I was hoping they'd work out the QC issues of the line before getting to him

The MM line doesn't seem too bad overall, though on my Zero v2 his right arm never wants to stay in place where it connects to the forearm. Otherwise they seem to have good tight joints. Oh, my MMX had weird black marks on each face, but using an erasure and exacto blade I was able to clean them off and leave no trace of anything. Not a big deal, but still annoying.
It's tough say what my biggest want has been with this line overall. Protoman, Zero v2, and Bass are all pretty much equally important to me. That said Protoman was the first MM character that was wasn't MM that really left an impression on me. I like the Robot Masters, Mavericks, Scientists, MM Legends, but until they do Protoman I will sigh everytime I see a new reveal. lol. Not to sound whinny, I love it all so far.. Protoman is just.. well, you guys love him too so you know. ![]() |

My Zero V1 and 2's had shoulder issues and the hair broke off incredibly easily on the V1. Any version of the X mold I've handled has arms that pop off at the elbows just from looking at them, and my Vava has floppy knees. Oh and I had to buy a second X because my first one had frozen bicep swivels and I wound up shearing his arm off

Darn, that's horrible. I'm super careful with mine, if it doesn't move.. I don't try to move it. lol. With Zero I've been careful, the hair is a big annoyance, but I love the character and sculpt. My Vava is solid though which is nice. Man, ouch, buying a D-Arts figure twice, expensive.

Well my second X has frozen biceps again that I'm terrified to try and nudge out of place. Suggestions?

Maybe try what Electric Turahk did? Though I'm not sure what oil he used, but it seemed to work on his MetalGarurumon.

Shock oil. It's amazing stuff, but really only good for ball joints. So a bicep problem... :/ I know people have stuck stuff like NECA figures in the freezer for stuck joints, but I don't know if that only works for certain types of plastics and if it would apply here. Unfortunately that's all I can think of though.
So Ultimate Armor X is it at SDCC? Still leaves me wondering what Bluefin meant by "D-Arts western character" then...
