TakaraTomy Diaclone Reboot: Discussion Thread

Do you collect other toys besides Transformers? Maybe you've got a Masters of the Universe collection you'd like to show off, or maybe you like Thundercats, Voltron, G.I.Joe, Power Rangers, Star Wars, Wrestling, or any of the various comic book toy lines. Please keep the discussions here to non-Transformers toy lines.

Really interested in these guys. Even though I don't really need to collect anything other than TF's.
Oh and moved to the right forum and merged with an existing thread about it.

Agreed...although I don't mind stepping outside the realm every now and then. Still waiting on an update for Baxingar. Hopefully someone posts the links for preorder info.

That vehicle mode looks rad. Wish we had more detailed pics available for the other two vehicles as well. I also hope this gets some more release details soon.

Stock Images of Upcoming Diabattle Diaclone Toy from Takara

Postby william-james88 » Fri Sep 25, 2015 11:05 am

Motto: "'till All Are One"
Several Japanese toys shows have shown us a reimagining of the Diabattle toy from Takara's Diaclone line. This was more of a Masterpiece take on the character. So far, the figure was only revealed as a grey prototype/test shot but that is all changing now. We finally have some beautiful full colour stock images from Takara Tomy themselves.

These pictures show the 3 vehicles (which are dsigned to repesent mobility in different environments such as underwater or in space) as well as their combined vehicle form and, of course, their combined giant robot form. Enjoy!

I think I liked it better as a prototype.

It looks like a nice homage to the original, but I just don't see it meshing with my collection.

The head is too obvious, and I don't like the colour choice, but otherwise looks pretty great! correct those issues and I'd get it.

I dont think this should be treated under the same scrutiny as a transformer toy. This is a mech, not a sentient being and thus he whole point of the machines is that they do have components of the larger robot, like Powerrangers. So a visible head is a bit more forgiveable.

It is the original stereotypical "heroic" colors of Japanese super robot genre. Optimus too shares the colors old red, white and blue. Gundam, Starsaber, heck even Starscream (sort of)
