I think X-Brawn's wheels on his legs swing to face forward.

Honestly cannot tell which of these two looks better than the other, sculpt and proportion-wise.
They each have their strengths and weaknesses and I agree, it's pretty much a wash. I almost didn't get the new one because I have the original and he was perfectly fine and not in need of an update. I went ahead though, after hearing a lot of positive buzz.

I think they both do a good job representing the character in their own way. I just wish the Legacy version had a bit more paint apps, especially on the forearms and legs. I'd usually rely on ToyHax but they decided to overlay all of their red and gold stickers for this guy with a weird techno circuitry pattern that doesn't match the red and gold already on the figure.

I have a strange fondness and affinity for the original that makes it the only "right" looking thing in my eyes, flaws and all. The new one looks great in isolation (if a bit weedy) and seems to pose like a dream, but put them side by side and it's no contest. Limited articulation and kind of parts-clashy transformation and all, the chonky original is absolutely it.

The one with ankle-tilts, of course.

They do, and his roof rotates around so his weapons can sit higher, like battle-flags.
That part, I knew -- I just didn't notice that they hadn't done that here.

If they redo Roadbuster I'll buy it. I don't know if it'll be any good or not, but I'll buy it. It has to be better than T30. The current team could do better in their sleep.

The "bigger than average dude with a ton of guns" that Leader class is nowadays is just about tailor made for Roadbuster. I imagine he can't look too much like the Mugen Calibur but that still gives them a lot of leeway.

Not a lot of people really care about Dorvack. They might be able to get away with it. And they might feel bold successfully fending off Harmony Gold.

It doesn't matter if most don't care about it. If HG holds the rights, you can bet they have a google alert set for Hasbro Dorvack so they can sue.
