Not to sure what GCrush's deal is with the Zaku I Sniper figure, either. I was blown away by the balancing of sharp details, articulation, and actual functionality of the accessories. It's like you opened up a different toy or something.
Yeah, I felt like I opened a different toy alright. I was expecting a Robot Spirits toy akin to the RS Zaku II and instead someone had slipped a Zeonography figure in there. It's oversized and fragile, the paint scratches easily, and the legs are basically immobile. (I mean, no thigh swivels? That's why it needs the knee brace to kneel. If you could rotate the thighs even a little you could balance it much more easily.) It looks great, but it's not play-able.
I'm not saying it's a bad figure, but it feels so far removed from the rest of the RS line that I feel like it shouldn't have been included in it.
