I honestly like it but I am currently turned off by a few things:

1. Price/Price point for overall size
2. Characters that they have made so far - I don't mind big powered, but I'm not a fan of the new diabattles or the original. I'd like to see Fortress X, Warudaros and Battle Buffalo for example.
3. Overall styling - I like the new aesthetic, but I feel like they've been too modernized - not as extreme as Michael Bay Movie Transformers, but I wish they had been a little bit closer to the "futuristic"/classic look of the originals, kind of like how SOC still feel slightly vintage/true to the original designs.

I’ve been trying so hard to resist these. They are awesome and look like a lot of fun but they also seem pricey and my shelves are already full. Battle Buffalo might be the tipping point that makes me cave in.

I'm selling my Diaclones if you're interested. No more space (storage or display)!

I agree...I had to be selective and passed up on many of the smaller figures and Big Powered simply because of the price. I did the Dia-Battles and 2 of his variants but otherwise, held off buying anymore until recently, Buffalo Wings. Had to get that.

They are nice toys but for all-plastic, just really pricey.

One can never have enough robots. Never.

They are sooooo tiny!!!! Hahahahaha. They are also; as it happens, compatible with some Hexa Gears parts. Awesome! ^___^

All sorts of fun combination potential!

dooquie: Quick question there used to be a thread on where to buy stuff in stores around the world. Anyone know if that thread exists still? Jan 17, 2023 15:04:51 GMT -5
