Replica Robots - good?

Postby SnipeShade » Fri Aug 03, 2007 11:13 pm

Are those things good? I saw it in the stores today, and for some reason I automatically thought they were bootleg versions. But it has the same TF box cover like the rest did...

Is it good enough to buy?

I remember seeing a thread that talked about 'em, but I always thought they were just bootlegs. Your opinion?

they are real versions, but they are meant to be accurate to the robot mode and do not transform, they are pretty much statues

Not revoltech good, but not bad. Should be 7-8 bucks, not 10.

Articulation sucks (despite revoltech like joints). Why the heck does a non transforming action figure have kibble in the way of everything?

Probably the closest we will get to movie accurate robots.

I saw them today and passed. They don't look good and BB's eyes are messed up. They aren't worth 10 bucks. I'd pay 3 bucks for em if i could. Pass on them

I think that they are terrible. They look cheap and have poor paint jobs, and the worst part they are "Transformers" that don't transform. Now I know someone's going to say "There are other lines that don't transform" and yes that is true, but those lines suck as well (Action Masters anyone).

Final verdict: don't waste your money on this garbage and go grab yourself a good meal instead. :D

haha! Yea, it was the paintjob that caused me to first think they were bootlegs. And the fact that they were non-transformable WITH a poor paintjob, led me to not even second guess buying them.


Thanks for your feedback. No wonder they were the only ones left:
