Onell Design takes years to complete some of its figures. The Sincroborg Buildriun
had been in the design phase for quite some time, and it shows.
Designer Matt Doughty probably knows just how long a figure needs to be
viable and exciting, and by giving a figure three distinct heads, a
head/weapon part, a vest, a knife, a blaster, some belts, and oh yes - a
mask you can flip down, there's a lot of meat on these bones. I'm not
100% sure what all of his inspirations are, but it smells like Dragon Quest
Golems, Mega Man, and countless other import figures were likely on his
mind. And things I'd likely never guess. The end result is a distant
cousin of his classic Buildman figure, which has been out of
circulation for some time. You can see why this is better, though,
with similar fists, a regular hand, and just so many parts to configure
and reconfigure.
