Battle Buffalo?

[drakepasha72]

Is Battle Buffalo part of Diaclone? what is its diecast content? Rarity? Playability?

Yes, it is one of the Waruder Diaclones (bad guys).

He's not huge, about, say 7-8 inches tall when assembled, and has a good amount of diecast - like all those early Diaclones (Dia-Battles, Dia-Attacker, etc).

I had one about 5 years ago, and still regret selling him on!

He's not especially rare, although he's rarely for sale (if you see what I mean).
The only problem I see with him is that even though he's part of a recognised toy line, he kind of looks out of place among his peers, with that dome head/cockpit thing and the antennae...
That said, I'd gladly pick up one if I saw it!

Regarding diecast content, he's particularly hefty. You wouldn't want to throw him at someone. Very little plastic at all. While it's true that Battle Buffalo looks a bit different than most of the other Diaclone robots, I happen to think his unique looks are charming. They remind me more of early tin robot toys, somehow.

Thanks for the info(s), guys. I finally won it from YJ. Sounds like it's a good buy after all. When arrive, I'll post its picture and my own opinion about it. Sounds like it's a good buy after all.
