It's two pieces that split in the front, one moving up and the other dropping down, and though there's no detailing inside the cockpit itself, there's padding or something on the inside of the doors.Īnd yes, the set includes a pilot, Sarah Briggs. Funko actually understands what fans want, so MOB's cockpit opens up. The majorĬomplaint about the McFarlane Toys Titan was that, despite all the promises to the contrary, the cockpit did not open and the pilot did not fit inside. Yes, we already said that this figure doesn't move at all, but it does still have two hinges, and they make all the difference. Go figure.Īlso better on Funko's toy than on McFarlane's? The articulation. That's the same thing that's on McFarlane's BT, but the tampo is clearer here than it was there. The decoration on the chest is a Prowler, a large predator from the planet Leviathan. The glue used to stick the pieces together seems to have dusted over a little bit, so you may have to wipe "fog" off the toy when you get it. The cameras that act as its eyes are bright blue, really standing out against the base color of the mech and making it easy to understand the way it "sees": one big optical unit in the drum on the center, two on the right shoulder, and a final one in the ball on top of the left shoulder. In the game, but "MOB-1316" is printed on the right leg. The internal workings of the Titan are a silvery grey, while the outer shell is a brick red. There are heavy weapons pods on the shoulders, creating a brutish, powerful look, and the center of the back has three rocket boosters, since the "fall" in "Titanfall" is literal - they get dropped onto the battlefield from the sky. If it tips over (or to provide a stable base in case someone wants to use it for sniping), or the rungs on the left leg that would give a pilot an easier time climbing in. Look at the pads on the knees and elbows, to help protect the suit There are also lots of little bits that give the bot personality. All the joints look like they could really move, though none of them do. It's one thing to have a robot's arm just emerge from a blocky torso, it's entirely another to put a rotator cuff there with inset connectors and sculpt cartoony pistons and hinges. The suit does look like a fairly believable mech, thanks to the small details in its design. Maybe it's because they don't have heads or normal eyes? Seems reasonable. It's not just that they're robots, because it's not like the Transformers ones look this good. There's something about the Titanfall aesthetic that seems uniquely suited to translating to POP! form. Like the rest of the Titans, MOB is a goodie. But why wait, when you can get the POP! version now? MOB-1316 is the same model of Titan as BT-7274 (a Vanguard-Class), so don't be too surprised if McFarlane Toys decides to do a repaint of their hunk of ass. You'd think if any Titan was going to be on #TeamUterus, it'd be this one. Titanfall 2: Sarah and MOB-1316 Funko Pop! B u y t h e t o y s, n o t t h e h y p e.
