Less partsforming. Izzat so bad?
Not the partsforming, the issue with the wings and backpack being so much higher than they ought to be.
And the exoskeleton
redesign did not allow for the wing part to be lower without compromising the entire transform feature as this version minimized the partsforming from the original.
In the original Godbomber, the part that makes up Godginrai's wing mount is parts formed and attached to Ginrai's supermode back holes which are situated way down on his back. Hence the wings more or less are parallel to his arms/shoulders. If Takara followed what you want, cosmetically, it would look like original but to do so, an extra folding hinge would pack in another extra cost to the fig etc etc
Really, if it was an exact carbon copy partsforming articulated modern version, people will complain. A slight tweak and people will still complain. Heck, even Ginrai's angled flat feet which is actually anime accurate and people will still complain. Too many grinches I say.
If I've got a complaint, it's the release date...past Christmas! I'll probably be getting him in the 2nd week of January 2017.
