That's what I did.
Well maybe not a deep clearance but seeing him in-stock at Target while they were doing 25% off any toy purchase meant I paid like $72 for him (with tax).
I always found it odd how many parts make up his arm there what 3-4 pieces there
one benefit of no longer biting my nails - i can actually transform this guy without needing to use a spudger anymore (look getting those damned arms out when i had no fingernails was literally impossible)
Same, but I got him for $60 something, since I also was able to combine it with a birthday discount as well.
"Let me take that Andalite body. You'll live. It's the only way you'll live."
I liked to angle the back end of Visser-3 up to make shoulder cannons. Not remotely right, I know, I read all the novels. But I used the toy as a Transformer.
I was really into Animorphs when these toys were out but the human figures were so hideously monsterous I never wanted any.
I recently decided to pick up the Andalites because I figured going from one alien creature to another would help. No human mode to try and make work.
Visser Three here turned out great. I'm kinda kicking myself for not getting him earlier. Ax and the Ultra Visser Three are definitely on the list now.
I had Ultra Visser 3, honestly it wasn't that good. Nothing locked in place right, the middle claw was a totally wrong color, the torso was dinky, hands were just cast on the back of two triangles, etc. If you like the character, or want a HUGE Hork-Bajir, it's great. But for being an actual toy, it didn't work very well and I don't know why.
If you can find one for a not-exorbitant price (while also keeping in mind the figure's rarity and decades-old age), I do recommend tracking down the Taxxon. I got mine from a seller on eBay who wasn't getting any buyers until I offered them a deal.
I like the Ultra figure because it's one of those like Car Robots Gigatron where you can reconfigure it into however many modes your imagination can think to reshape it into.
Mine also doesn't have any of those QC issues and I reconfigured it into a better-looking centaur mode than the official one in the instructions.
I picked up the Ultra Visser-3 at a thrift store, missing the missile claws and most of the tail. I don't know anything about Animorphs, but for the three bucks I paid for it, it was a nice giant monster thing.
Honestly? Kind of the appeal. The Mega toy is a pretty good representation of the character, who was a great evil overlord antagonist. So I don't feel like I need the Ultra for him specifically, but I'd like a Hork-Bajir figure.
It looks fun as just a giant monster transforming thing. I'll keep an eye out for one for a decent price.
That too. I like robots, I like monsters, I like aliens, I like mutants, and it's a thing that looks like all of the above.
Lot a tanks.
Tarn toot'n that's a lot of tanks
