MOTUC Mosquitor Discussion

They did not display Kalamarr/Slush Head with water either. I presume this one has some fill-in feature.

**mekaneckpain** · July 14, 2012, 08:23am

Not to happy with his torso... They should have gave him an entirely new longer torso with larger blood window. And if it turns out that his chest piece is just a red piece of plastic and not fillable with liquid... then he's a 50% fail.

exactly if the chest is red is because we will not be able to fill it, just like the mosquitor 200x, the window should not have any color and just should fill it with red ink!

He looks cool, but I think his head could have been a bit bulkier. It looks a bit small on his frame. Though on the other hand that may be the general idea, to make him look less human.

**wundarwarrior** · July 14, 2012, 01:35pm

I think he is a cool figure but he should come with more accessories. One gun is not enough.

**hlinhk128** · July 14, 2012, 01:40pm

so Dan has to wait til Dec? Thats bogus!

**TUC138** · July 14, 2012, 02:09pm

All the hype created for this translucent red plastic ?

Mind you, I like the figure. But all this "Spector Hides Mosquitor's Torso" hype has turned into an epic fail !!

**Darkkosis** · July 14, 2012, 03:03pm

After seeing all the pics available, I must say I'm disappointed with this figure now, he just looks unfinished to me. They easily could've treated him like Stinkor, but no, they wanted him to look more vintage!

It's funny to see Pixel Dan glorifying his beloved figure (And honestly I'm happy for him) yet, he was always iffy about Webstor (Which IMO turned out to be better in the end).

I would have preferred if he had come with Buzz-Off's wings in black or purple instead of the insect appendages (which btw u can hardly see from the front). He is after all based off of a Mosquito.. a mosquito should have wings!!

This is a prime example where they should have sacrificed the ab crunch and made a newly sculpted upper torso with a large blood window that is fillable like Slush Head's dome. They totally cheaped out on Mosquitor regardless of the newly tooled pieces he did get.

**Orko's Magic Hat** · July 15, 2012, 09:11am

I think he came out pretty much perfect. I like his red chest piece - it looks as if you can see his organs.

**Sword-of-Grayskull** · July 15, 2012, 09:15am

Why does the blood chamber have a completely different shape from the vintage figure?

**JonWes** · July 15, 2012, 09:49am

I'm pretty happy, but I wish the red wasn't over the whole thing. I wish the top was sort of clear so it looked like there was a line where the top of the blood sloshing around was. But I'm happy with this.

**mekaneckpain** · July 15, 2012, 10:03am

Is there any clarification yet as to whether or not this is what the final product will look like, a red transparent piece of plastic representing a blood-filled belly??? This might be a work in progress figure... has anyone at SDCC asked if it will be fillable?? Or has TG himself mentioned anything about Mosquitor??

**dark knight** · July 15, 2012, 10:32am

i think in some point i will make a custom of this mosquitor to leave his chest window more accurate to the one of the 80´s talking about the blood not size

I presume we'll get all the answers in the (eagerly awaited) Pixel Dan walkthrough video.

**SCB** · July 15, 2012, 01:02pm

From Pixel Dan's twitter

Mosquitor 's chest can't hold liquid. Its sculpted clear red. Cornboy said they tried liquid & couldn't find a good way to make it work.

**mekaneckpain** · July 15, 2012, 01:04pm

So then Mosquitor is a fail... Oh well.

**SCB** · July 15, 2012, 01:07pm

They should have vac metalized his blood as a second option.

No Way!

Vacmetal Blood sounds like a GREAT band name. Time to find some tiny band equipment...

Think of all the money those chinese factory workers could make on the discarded protos! No starving children for at least a month!

**Sallah** · July 15, 2012, 06:05pm

Not to be a worrier... But does it seem like Mosquitor suffers from the Hssss reversed shoulders? Look at this pic of Dan holding from Toy Ark...

MOTUC-2012-2013-029_1342211572.jpg

Now that could be because it is a sample, or my eyes playing tricks... But it looks reversed to me, and I doubt that this was a hard copy proto and not a production sample (what with the play Scott put it through in the teaser pics).

Can someone confirm that the shoulders were correct on the sample?

I can't tell from the pic... but I would not be the least bit surprised.

It may not matter since it looks like the bicep piece is a new sculpt... It might not matter if the shoulders are on wrong... Good question.

Well, I am sure it will be a "design choice" if they are indeed wrong.

"Pretty cool, huh?"
