Why do so many Tankers dislike the supposed "diaper crotch" on most new era figures? I, for one, don't mind them and actually prefer the look over the skinny/bikini crotch everyone is asking for. I understand it improves articulation for when you sit your figures but from a strictly "aesthetic" standpoint, I think it looks better and more accurate to what actual pants look like on a person.
Does anyone else agree with me? |

articulation, that alone is reason enough for me. it can look perfect but if you can't use it, whats the point?

As the vast majority of my collection is displayed standing, this really does not bother me. As a toy, that I buy for my nephews, the better movement would help.

The wide pelvis inhibits other poses as well. I also prefer the look of the fixed pelvis over the look of wearing depends under their pants. However, I wouldn't consider myself a "hater". I just simply "fix" the pelvis and it's ready to go.

And they couldn't sit properly with the vehicles, which is a big disappointment.

Even with the wider crotch the articulation is more than acceptable (IMO)
