I'm on the verge of falling into Diaclone Reboot. I've been taking a look at the Waruders. I thought it would be fun to have some to go with my Generations/Masterpiece Diaclone-colored guys. And then I saw DA-91Pod Gantry. And then I wanted V-Max Convoy. And then I looked at the second hand...
I think Metroplex looks neat. I always liked the original and I have a desire to get this new one so he can tower over my Cybertron figures. All of the negatives have been mentioned here, and I agree with most of them (especially the lack of Mini-con ports), but still, I like the toy.
Imagine the G1 Optimus character model with Sky Striker parts hanging off. A very obvious cab-over-engine truck chest, but he turns into a plane.
Edit: or would it be worse if he turned into a military truck but still had the cab-chest? Either way, too weird for me.
The lower jaw bugs me so much, ha ha. Especially because you can clearly see the “real” jaw right behind the robot head. But I bought the new one anyway.
I just transformed Beast Megatron for the first time. I felt like I was going to break his hips splitting them apart. Is this a common problem?
Thanks for the thoughts. I just ordered a bunch. I'm holding off on Waspinator for now. Megatron and Terrorsaur are sold out. But the rest are on their way!
Is there any consensus on which Rhinox is better? The new Kingdom one or the one from a few years back? Same question for Rattrap. After holding off, I think I'm going to buy all the Beast Wars guys. I've already got the older Waspinator and I think I'm going to stick with him.
Is it really supposed to snap into place? I've found a position that sort of stays put, but no snapping. That whole tail armature is a big pain in both modes. Otherwise, a really fun figure!
