Each joint gets counted as a single point of articulation. So each finger has 2 points of articulation, the arms bend at 3 places so theres 6 more etc...

yeah, that's more like it. I was considering canceling my order and getting a masterpiece megatron imported instead for the same price, but this thing will have a dominating presence on any shelf. MGP FTW!

I so wish you could buy those sets it comes with, with the tiny cars and buses, with the road.


The scale is wrong on them though, I'm pretty sure the parasites weren't the size of an estate car.

Hmm, looks like they might be the right size to stand next to Heroclix/Horrorclix figures.

They are a little smaller than some of the cars

wow.....

now that this THING is out, exposed, I'm stunned by the detail and thought that obviously went into the design.....

I don't see how any other debate on this, "size of, number of, mistakes by cgi crew, etc. " can be carried on after seeing this....

Now I guess the bigger question will continue to be...

"What IS that?"

something terrible, indeed......

Keep in mind... from his HEAD to the ground in this picture, he is 14" tall. With that arm extended, he stands close to 3' tall.

Wanna reconsider how much its worth? Laughing

true... It's probably worth it, I'm probably looking at it through a "what's realistically in my poor college student budget" perspective... haha

In the pic with the parasite and the estate car it looks only slightly smaller than the car.

They certainly weren't that big.

I'm sure there are toy cars out there that would be the right size for it.
