Nathan G. –
Like the Razorhound before it, the Pyrodactyl is a very ambitious design, and I appreciate the level of engineering that went into creating something that functions both as armour, and a creature in its own right. While there’s a similar design language between the two that makes them recognisably belong together, the Pyrodactly stand apart with a different colourscheme and a VERY spiky motif that reminds me of some of the villain designs from the Michael Bay Transformers movies. It gives the Pyro a very distinctive – and menacing – silhouette.
That said, there are a few issues that hold me back from giving it a perfect score. I get the impression this set was designed as armour first, creature second, as some of the design features that work well in its armour form work against its creature configuration. The upper arms are bent at an angle so they can fit around the Dilophosaurus’ chest, which can make posing awkward when the wings are extended. The elbow joints that allow the limbs to fold up around the chest in the armour mode are also somewhat loose and don’t hold up the weight of the wings very well when the heavy fire effects are attached.
Despite these minor quibbles, there’s still a lot to love about this figure. It looks awesome in both of its modes, and the detachable claws and grappling wire features are great surprise inclusions that add a lot of cool options for play and posing.
