(NOTE: Because this is a repaint, this is not a full-blown review. This mainly covers any changes made to the mold and the color scheme, and merely compares it to the original RotF voyager The Fallen. For a review on the mold itself, read the review of the original RotF voyager The Fallen here.)

    In a bit of an homage to his original War Within form, The Fallen has been done up in fiery colors. The two main colors by far are a fiery orange and a "burnt charcoal" gray, both of which work very well together to give him a "fire elemental" look, which certainly fits how he looked in his original War Within incarnation. The thing is, those two colors make up practically all of his colors. There's a few minor silver and light red paint apps, as well as his light red "solar panels" that fold out, but they're all small exceptions to the rule. Personally although I love the fiery scheme, I would've preferred a tad more variety-- perhaps some more red and some yellow. The paint apps are also generally the same as on the original voyager class The Fallen, and I think they missed a huge opportunity here to paint his appendages up with "flame" paint apps, which just would've looked awesome.
    No mold changes have been made to the "Burning" Fallen.
    I really liked how fiery the original Fallen was, and I was kinda disappointed they didn't really go that route with the movie version of the character. This nice redeco helps to rectify that, and although I'd recommend it above the original, I think it doesn't quite live up to its potential to really look fiery in terms of its paint apps and lack of real variety of plastic colors.



The Fallen (Burning) Bio:
For millennia, he has waited. Thousands of years have dragged by as he recruited proxies, one by one, to scour the cosmos for the artifact he required. Now he finds he must return to the primitive, flesh-slug infected planet on which his quest began. Nothing will stand in his way this time. If need be, he will scour the surface of this disgusting world clean in the fire of his rage, and search through the blasted rubble for that which he seeks.
