A friend of mine in China says these are all the rage, but he isn't sure if they are known as something else outside China. Anyone recognize them?

That a knockoff figure from the videogame and anime series D.I.C.E., which is kinda like zoids.

Are those motorcycles?

Looks like dinoaaurs with wheels!

yeah, thats a knockoff from D.I.C.E., i have the official version of that figure. i tried to get into the series but it was never on TV, and compared to transformers that i was also into at the time, the figures sucked. the armored human figures were great (some of my most poseable figures ever), but the dinosaur/vehicles sucked.

Its a vehicle that pops out legs and becomes a raptor i guess. It has a pilot too.

ok, i took some pics of the real one:

as i hope you can see, it doesnt really transform. a better word would be... shifts, everything just pulls out from the body. (sorry the pictures werent better, i'm not used to the camera yet, ive been using a much nicer one but that ones dead)

i know, but im not too big on those. i prefer small complex transformers, its rare for me to buy anything bigger than voyager because i hate bulkiness too. (the last big one i bought was movie leader optimus due to his good reviews i figured id go for it, also, it helped me talk my brother into a brawl so i could play with it when he was done :grin:

Yeah, i prefer small interesting toys too. That is the reason why i never seriously collected Alternator/Binaltech/Masterpiece line.

I was actually really interested in that series, but sadly it was moved to digital cable here, along with no sign of any of the toys. I was really hoping for it to catch on more.
