Just got a RF Daltanious and noticed that the head is extremely huge. It does not really match with the other jumbos.
I know it's got that vinyl plane that attaches but they could have easily made it smaller not unlike the DX diecast version.
Still a great jumbo but could have been better.

Thanks everyone. I know I complained about the head but it is a nice jumbo. I love the lion head. It's the same design as the ST and DX versions. Just much bigger. Kind of weird to have a plastic stick right in the middle of it but that is one of the cool things about it. Always wanted to find out about what was going through the designers' minds when creating these masterpieces of plastic.
And I was told to be careful of ever having the figure fall on the side with the lion head. Since the lion head is hard plastic. the connecting piece can snap off pretty easily with a drop. I don't think this would be a problem on carpet but I noticed we display a lot of our toys outside on the hard ground or inside with hardwood floors.

Thanks for the info bro, I do heard of the lion head being very fragile, Now I know why, daltanious is my fav rf jumbo even though not the rarest among the 5 Maybe u can post some pictures of your collection when you are free, I would love to see your collection photos...thank you |

Hi. I would love to post some pics but been having a hard time with that function on this site. Tried posting the battle fever w the little vinyl figures standing on it once but it was too big of a file to fit. Finally just gave up.
I will try again one day. Maybe when I get a few more key pieces.
Any particular reason Daltanious is your favorite?
I like all the robot factory ones. To me, Popy finally hit their stride with Jumbos when creating utter masterpieces of plastic with those. My favorite is still Gordian.
