Love it! I did think the box choice was a strange one… in that style, a window box would have worked better and been in line with the rest of the vehicles… However I always seen this set as a play set, so would have preferred a square box just like the vintage.

Great review. I never felt comfortable putting my Classics Talon Fighter on top of Classics Greyskull, since it's so big and heavy. Does the Origins Talon Fighter fit on top of Classics Point Dread? The size seems perfect for Classics Greyskull.

@Pixel-dan Жыл бұрын

Unfortunately no. The pegs on the Classics one are a tad too far apart, causing the new Talon Fighter to not even balance. Plus those pegs were designed with a clip that won't work on the new pegs holes even if they did fit. 😢

@Rocket1377 Жыл бұрын

It should be easy enough to mod it. I altered a vintage Point Dread perch using LEGO pieces, to attach a smaller brick-built version of the Talon Fighter to my vintage Castle Grayskull (in scale with the Reaction figures). The Classics perch is held together with screws, so it should be possible to take it apart and fit it with some smaller pegs that are compatible with the Origins Talon Fighter.

@brainlock72 Жыл бұрын

How do other figure lines fit in this ship? I bought a couple of the newer CGI series TF on clearance, but ML and Joes are just a hair too tall/wide shouldered to fit comfortably, even the ladies. Some SW black do fit, fairly well. I don’t have any Mythic Legions to test, but I know Eric/Cornboy & 4H have numerous MOTU “homages”😉😉 in their line.

@thespaceram2879 15 күн бұрын

The classics fit. I put Classics Heman up front of the pilot seat. Had to bend his knees. Then ab crunch him inward then move his head inward. He doesn't sit correctly since he is hunched over on the top part of the seat. But once you close the hatch it is not even noticeable. He does sit fine behind. So does Classics Teela. I can't sit Teela up front because she doesn't have an ab crunch. But 3 out 4 isn't bad.
