The drill is cool. Amazing how such a simple thing works so well.

Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.

Some people have observed that MP-11 (and redecoes) are 1:60 scale. Well, so is the original MP-03 version of the tooling. And I think that version of the tooling might be better-suited to adapting to Diaclone, with one particular change: Turning the faux-scabbards into real scabbards.

It's also making me want to see if I can kitbash my spare Classics Mirage to hold a Dianaut.
Speaking of Dianauts... Can anybody fortunate enough to own the Great Robot Base weigh in on how well modern Dianauts play with it? (speaking of that base.. on the escalator, are the pilots adhering to metal under the belt, or..?)
Question about the new Dianauts. How wide are they at the hips?
Which Prime? G1, MP-04, MP-10, or (bleh) MP-44?SpikeyTigertron wrote:ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:It occurs to me that the 1:60 scale might be a factor in the lack of a Car Robots subline, since sticking to that scale would make most of the robots only slightly bigger than Hot Wheels cars in vehicle mode.

I’ve thought seriously about using Prime’s trailer as a hanger bay

Not pictured the mobile battle command station (legs w/cannons for Big-GV) or the jet wing kit for the mobile suits

Your picture needs more love... That battle force is a thing of beauty. Though mentioning W40k... Wonder if any fans have actually written rules to turn Diaclone into a wargame (an even more expensive wargame then the aforementioned W40k!)

Might be because the market for them is smaller in the US. Plus there's the fact that Hasbro already has several brands to deal with.SpikeyTigertron wrote:D-Maximal_Primal wrote:That air unit looks really good, I'm planning to grab it to combine with Trydasher for some powerup fun
Yeah, I’m excited for it.... hoping they don’t do a black recolor as a convention/takara mall exclusive....
Surprised Hasbro doesn’t try to bring these over at least online.... I wonder if takara is missing out on some market segments.

ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:Regarding the Waruders.. I don't think I saw anything about it in this thread, but Warudaros Gigantor isn't the only Warudaros unit coming out. There's also a smaller "Warudaros Soldier Type" coming. Maybe that'll fill the "medium-size Waruder" role?
The Soldier-Type can also form a new arm for Gigantor, one that looks like the arms seen in the illustrations from a while back.
I wonder if they'll make an analog to the Walk Insectors.. Or if Raptorhead and Bughead are that analog.
