"I picked this up after a rough week at work, and a little bit of giant fighting robot went a long way towards improving my mood.
This has a great part-to-price ratio, and the final product is quite large - comparable to your standard combined transforming robot team. It is a solid, well-designed mech that gets plenty of style points from me for its firefighter-like helmet and cockpit, faux-pistons on the back of its legs, and working toe joints.
It's not perfect - there aren't any knees, the legs don't move quite as far outward as I'd like, the shoulder joints sometimes struggle to hold up the weight of the arms, and I kinda miss not having some sort of real hand option, but these are minor issues in the long run."
