It's probably one of stipulations that got this line greenlit, that the designs wouldn't resemble any of the Diaclones that got used for Transformers.Part of me is disappointed that these designs seem to be getting less recognizable with every release. The rest of me is just impressed that these designs are so cool in their own right. It's still surreal seeing Diaclone getting the AAA treatment like this.
Where is the Japanese source for this? The previous forum thread was titled "Diaclone Revival Discussion", which I found to be a better characterisation.Yeah, "Diaclone Reboot" is the line's official name
