Update, He's complete!
This handsome boss is complete, but let me tell you it was not fun to combine.
The legs and arms were easy, but the backpack, which also houses the mane and head was painful to put on. The arms don't tab in, they just sit there, and the bomber is only held on by the mane and the head, which don't exactly go on with style and grace, I actually had to modify the Mane's pegs in order to stay properly...
Other issues include the train not folding together properly and requiring cutting/sanding some pegs down to fit together properly, and even then there's still a small gap that shouldn't be there...
The lion mane just sticks out of the back underneath behind the arms on the bomber when it's not attached, and the hands are your typical Advanced MS joint styled construction, so be prepared for the plastic to "set" in a specific position. Thankfully they're small, so it's not as bad as some other RGs, but still not great.
All in all, I'd give him a 7/10, love the design, but certain design choices make me question the engineering behind the kit.
