I would have never gone for these when I was 3. I had the awesomeness of G2 back then.

Seriously, I just don't understand making all the little kids versions of TFs. Maybe it's cause these weren't available when I was younger, but I think it cause it shows a dumbing down of the populace.

When I was 3 I could transform some of the more complicated figures of the era and not break a single thing. (Have all my old figures to prove it) Nowadays, it seems like kids are getting good at breaking stuff. (And according to US toy laws, choking on it as well.)

Aren't these kind of like Throttlebots though? I think there's a definite need for smaller, more inexpensive Transformers. The reason these look quite bad is that nowadays there are Legends and awesome Scouts to compare them to.

edit: also Robofreak, I never broke toys either, but had cousins and friends who seemed unable to touch something without breaking it. Careless children isn't a new phenomenon, but possibly parents caring to educate their children on why breaking stuff isn't the best way to be might be dwindling.
