“People are saying that Tarix is one of the worst Glatorian. Not true! He is almost better than Vorox or Gresh in my opinion. His water blades are very cool with those gold bases and translucent blue blades. These also make him look cool when you pose him, so it looks like he... More is paring them. The thornax launcher, as always, if you squeeze it in the right place, it fires far.”
