Anyone played with those MagnaFormers? They transform from car to robot using magnets.

Where'd you spot the Magnaformers? TRU?

Yesss...but i'm sure i've seen them in either Target, Big W or K-Mart as well.

In fact, i'm sure it was Target when they had their toy sale on.

Maybe I should occasionally look down toy aisles other than the transformers one...

What bothered me most was the amount of shell pieces that are left over from the alt mode when you convert it to robot.

No leftover parts with Roadbots, all parts are used in robot mode.

Nevertheless, the amount of pieces which must be removed before transformation can be completed really pushes it. Some of these are reattached to the robot, others become shields, and anything else must be attached to bulky weapons which are entirely separate from the vehicle. The majority are are non-essential to robot form. Too many loose pieces in my opinion.
