Weird choice of name, but then again, its to avoid getting sued i guess! Picked this up at the usual place and was pretty much looking forward to opening it up!
It's Masterpiece scaled, so it looks quite nice beside the others. There's been other headmasters from Fansproject, but this looks the better of the two in my opinion, as it looks closer to the animated version and lineart.
The quality and build are very good; the plastic doesn't have that cheap look 3P products tend to have, and the fit and joints are good. Paint apps are spot on and the details on the figure like vents and panel lines are screaming to be markered up haha.
Transformation is moderately easy; the parts have to line up, but will slot nicely into place most of the time. The chest has the headmaster stat gimmick printed on... Too bad they couldn't do the actual one like the classic toy. The headmaster figure is nicely detailed too with some basic articulation.
One minor complaint might be the poseability of the figure; due to the way the thighs are connected to the hip, plus the wheels there, the figure can't really raise his legs a full ninety degrees. Plus the fact that they used ratcheted joints means you can't really do fine adjustments, although that means the figure is pretty stable.
Still, the figure does look good overall and i look forward to future releases in this range! :)
