It came from the Toy Chest: Super7 wave2 Round 3: Chokey chicken vs Hard Rock Lady...

Granita and Sorceress are the ones getting a review this time. Who are they?

Let's start with Granita: The third Space Hippy that bends over for hardness. also known as the Female Comet Warrior. Past ME! Granita FINALLY MADE IT TO MOTUC!!

Sorceress? Well

I kinda used my joke on the MOTUC Version...

Before I start... I thought Dylamug was crap. Well, Granita beat him. At LEAST Dylamug was FUNCTIONAL. Granita can't do ANYTHING RIGHT! Her buttflap doesn't work and it falls off by looking at it. Her Rock pieces won't connect to each other... or stay ON HER... Take it away Oliver!!


Heh, since I'm already pissed about Granita, well... Let's a-go!

Articulation:
On Paper she has Decent articulation. It only works without the cumbersome rock pieces. I already mention how her buttflap rock piece doesn't work. I have to mention the over the knee swivel which looks bad. With the pieces she becomes a 5 POA Figure
4.5 without rock pieces 2.0 with them.

Paint and Sculpt:
Sloppy paints, painted joints are chipping off paint. Her rock pieces have rubbed off paint on her forearms.It's a bit worse than with Stonedar and Rokkon... BTW my Stonedar's head became a bit sticky and the factory silver paint rubbed off. I know it's partially unrelated, but letting you know... dunno why, but whatever.
Her sculpt is decent, but she has the Turtle Birthing hips from Hawke. She also seems to be shorter than the Male figures... which in other lines would be fine, but MOTUC is not other lines. Having height difference between figures is a big mistake. The one REAL Positive I can give her is that she looks GREAT WITHOUT The rock pieces.
It pains me to do this, but...
2.0

Accessories:
Rock Pieces (that don't work properly) and gun.
5.0

Overall:
Granita gets a 3.83 if we have her WITHOUT the Rock Pieces. Adding the Rock Pieces to the mix her score lowers to a flat 3.0, which is passable, but not a score that a MOTUC should have.
The bad paintjob on mine and USELESSNESS of her rock form made me sour on her...
Let's open Tyron Sorceress now...

Oh, Sorceress... What have they done to you.

Articulation:
She has the same Articulation as Teela... except maybe the shoulders, which are with the "Hasbro elbow"But all is rendered useless because of DEM WINGS!!
Unlike the MOTUC version, this one has two sets of wings that plug to her back and forearms. In both poses her arms are rendered USELESS!! also mine is looser than the Thundercats on the move.

Because of that, I have to give her in articulation a measly
3.0

Paint and Sculpt:
There were DRASTIC changes from Proto to final sculpt... China factory is making a turdtacular job... Time to change Factories, B-Flynn... The sculpt is NOT HORRIBLE, but looks too different from the Original Proto that had a better likeness of the character. One of my capes had a chunk of blue paint missing... Not a good start there...
3.0

Accessories:
Perch with pegs to put Zoar in
Zoar with holey feet to stand on perch... He kinda looks like Danny DeVito.
Kodoku Ungol Head
2 sets of wings...
5.0

Overall:
Sorceress gets a 3.67 as her final score... Super7, you are slipping and that's not good.
