Zordbuilder isn't the reason it doesn't look optimal. Replacing zordbuilder ports with different connection ports doesn't change anything, it's just the way the Dragonzord was designed. It may have been a compromise to have a better looking Dragonzord in standalone mode, but it's got nothing to do with zordbuilder.

It doesn't matter if they're made primarily for kids or adults, toys are toys, and having universal connection ports makes sense. If you don't want to use them for anything other than show accurate combinations don't have to, but many people like being able to mix and match things into new combinations.



A zordbuilder Tigerzord is very desirable to me because it could allow for an approximation of the proposed Zyu3 combination.

Still, the original's knees for that mode were leagues above the Legacy version's.

Bah! It's the best mode.

Den-O is exactly right. I'm just saying it is not meant to be displayed like that because that is not the primary mode.

And personally, I never understood that mode because it doesn't even have the Pteradactyl attached to it, which I always found to be stupid.

Just to clarify, the "Assortment includes 6 figures" is actually "6 Figure UPC's found." I wrote that one line in myself. Everything else is from the actual description. Should've been more specific.

I'm super curious how the White Tiger is Zordbuilder compatible.

Also said in the description for Tigerzord, "Morphs with MMPR Dragonzord"

It's not that hard to imagine. Zord Builder ports for the shoulders (like Mastodon's arms) and knees (Like the T-Rex and Dragonzord). And through Zord Builder we can finally do this:



...without the overhauled designs, of course.


EDIT: *Scrolls up* Hey, someone beat me to it.

I guess I'm just too used to the original Tiger Zord's design to picture the knees being ZB compatible.

Ivan Ooze for definite? I am SO hyped for these movie figures.
