I've always loved Imperialdramon's design, and in my Digimon collecting Prime I have 4 versions of him- the D-Arts, The American Digivolving, the Japnanses Digivolving one, and the Paladin mode Japanese Digivolving one. I sold them all when my Digimon fandom waned a few years back and never regretted it. When I saw the Promo images of Imperialdramon's latest incarnation, I caved and preordered it through a proxy ASAP. Finally he arrived today, and it's time to pick him apart.
Thanks to the huge box, expect shipping to be pretty high. Thanks Ban Dai! He looks okay in the package, while the animated one looks cooler than you figure could ever hope to be. Let's open him up.
Well, that is a bit underwhelming. Imperialdramon comes with Wings, two cannons, and four extra hands. Well worth $70 right? Yeah that's sarcasm. The wings are cool, but they feel flimsy, and hurt your fingers as you jam them in. The cannon was sort of a bitch to attach to the arm as well. The paint job is fine, bland, but true to character. He can stand on his won though, which is a nice thing.

Imperialdramon looks a bit cooler in dramatic poses, but his should construction is odd. There shoulder pads are attached by a loop that likes to pop out, and the arms under them are jointed rather oddly. They felt pretty cheap too.He does look okay poses with his cannons, both of which can be chest mounted, one with hands, and the other with out. There's really not much here unless you love this character, or think it will be woth money someday. It is getting an American release, which is a bit cheaper, but still not worth it. I give him a nostalgia based 6/10.
