A tough one but I love the way the panda looks. Although the Orangutan's arm looks like a friggin jack hammer how cool is that. I went with the panda though.

I voted for the Panda too, but it was a close vote for me. The Panda's paint just is just so blah! There should be so much more detail put into the figure......they just didnt. :bunny: But, he is supposed to be the medic.....so all white and red is what he WOULD be wearing. So I can forgive the plain colors because of that.

Ossified for me. A good matchup that again required me to think. I like Pandas weapon better, but he looks so mean I like my pandas cute and cuddly looking(so they can get close and rip your heart out). I also prefer Ossified and his other cohorts with the cool arms. They probably will get extra consideration all tournament.

i really dislike pandas as an animal, i dont weant to get into it right here and now, but also i think the paint job looks half finished, saying that the Orangatan is also fairly simple in terms of its colour scheme, i also like the fact that his whole left arm is replaced with a robotic arm.

The panda looks unrealistic, it looks fierce and angry instead of docile like a real panda, uninterested in varying it's diet or even having sex to reproduce itself - pandas are dumb!

Wow these are both pretty ugly.

My vote goes to the Panda. It has a certain Stormtrooper quality and the weapon seems to match he figure nicely (or at least is better than the monkey’s weapon). I think we would look 100 times better with black hands, but it still looks nice. Maybe black painted feet too?

The monkey is just brutal. It looks like a bad knock-off without any charm. It has a terrible weapon, in a terrible color – plus that arm looks super glued on to the figure. It seems completely out of place. The figure might have worked better with two regular arms. It also has fur working against it. Fur seems to be nearly impossible to create in plastic, and here it is especially bad.

Panda gets my vote.

This is the first game this time where I don't really like either figure. The panda is pretty bland. There's a lot of unpainted white plastic there that seems like it wants some sort of detail work. And the panda "parts" seem to have no texture at all. Just a bland figure.

On the plus side, I think the black/white/red color scheme is pretty cool. I just wish there was more black and less white. And his sword is rocking awesome!

I agree with Veers in that the orangutan looks like a cheap knock-off. The color scheme is just atrocious! And I don't know what's going on with his robotic arm. Is it supposed to be a weapon of some kind? His other weapon isn't bad... it kind of reminds me of Spock's weapon from that episode of Star Trek where he fights Kirk to the death.

Anyway, I went with the panda.

Although the panda isnt great...the deltoid armor has a fairly impressive look and the facial expression (ahh..a Panda baring its teeth lol) at the very least is fun. If the figure had proper articulation / physical proportions i could imagine it holding the sword with 2 hands with its teeth showing ready to send some poor beast to the infirmary...or morgue.

The Orangutan ..what can i say that would be a compliment.

Ive thought on many occasions that his armor would make a great custom base once you removed him from it.

Panda +1

I voted for the panda. He had potential when I read his name, but he turned out a little dissapointing, but he is still cooler than the monkey. I like the monkey, but not digging the robotic arm.

Besides the red cross color scheme he looks more like a blade master while wielding his sword:

I think you have to actually hold these figures to appreciate their high points and their down sides.

I like both of these figures.

The Panda has a bad habit of yellowing because of all the unpainted white plastic, but his armor is very smooth and the Red paint apps really set him off. His Sword is by far one of the top 10 best weapons in the whole series. I mean who wants to get hit with that sword!?

The orangatang is complete detail, so I highly disagree with the knockoff look comment. All of his hair has been sculpted out. His armor isn't the greatest. But I really like the Green. His Face is the most impressive though, not so much as for the sculpting, but the face paint applications on the Orangatangs I've owned have always been smooth and flawless.

As far as detail the Orangatang wins, as far as fierce cool factor and playability the panda wins. A very nice contrast battle here. ;)

It's a really hard choice for me. I think I'll go the playability route this time, and vote the Panda.

Neither one of these two are amongst my favorites.

The panda has a dull paintjob and a disgusting grin on his face, but has a relatively cool weapon.

The Orangatang has a better paintjob and not enlarged to the size of the image you see here,
in other words in life-size, his fur looks not that bad at all really.
(I would like to propose life-size picturing just as in the muscle-tourny for that reason)
However his weapon is in a lame color, though I kinda dig the shape.

All in all I went with the Orangatang, simply because the facial expression of Panda is too bad,
especially since he is supposed to be member of the Autobot-beasts...

DK77 Who thinks in real life PANDAS ABSOLUTELY ROCK!
They are nice vegetarian ultracute bears who don't run after their dingeling like certain monkeys do...
And I'm not talkin Orangs here, since those are Great Apes, not 'monkeys' ;) ;)

Our glorious Milky Way is a tiny, infinitesimal speck of sand in this vast, incomprehensible universe. And somewhere in that Milky Way is our own solar system, less than one billionth of that speck of sand that is the Milky Way. And then there is our planet Earth, one hundred trillionth of that one billionth of that one speck of sand. And on this planet Earth there is DEV-0, an insignificant blemish with a lifespan too short to measure when placed in infinite time.

And you are here, with them, as so many specks of sand.

i think it was a bad idea giving a Panda medic a weapon like that, i mean look at the cack handed job he made amputating the oragatans left arm, he was only meant to cut it off from below the elbow ;)
