Same here. While its gorgeous, I am not that much into the modular system. And I do find it very small too. Cobo, its as big as the Biomachine Exo skeleton right?

Want me to help dissuade you? It costs 160$ and is as big as CW Longhaul. Would you be cool with that? Are you that passionate about this toy?

Well, That was an experience. I can dig that. These piloted mech things are turning out pretty sweet.

I know, me too, but hey if thats what you like, there are a bunch fo other takara toys to experience as well that are cheaper and could give you an idea of this without spending the big bucks. The only thing is that you wouldnt be one of the Jones' and I dont know how much that factors into everyone's want of this right now (including mine).

For instance, this is what I got for 80$ when I wanted to try out Microman (still available for that same price).

Its 4 vehicles with 4 of the most articulated figures ever. They are the size of G1 Joes and the armour on the vehicles can turn into weapons and armour for the figures:









And here they are combined (and one inch taller than Diabaltles)



Cobotron made a review of that as well: viewtopic.php?f=206&t=103137&p=1743380&hilit=kong#p1743380

So why compare them then? The product isn't a part of the Diaclone reboot line. Now if there was another product of the same line you position would be valid.

Bottom line is, the discussion is about Diaclone and not Microman....off topic already

Maybe they learned their lesson the first time, and built mechs comparable to Earth's.
