These are 30+ year old characters. An extra year makes you lose interest? Fairweather fan much?

I am sure Action Toys is just one name this company is known by. They make other things.

 

They probably make toys in general

 

Not "fairweather" (over-react much?  ), just noting that they're killing enthusiasm/momentum by being so abysmally slow. I'm not the world's #1 Gobot fan, and I've never seen any MR cartoons. I'm only tangentially interested in these because of their Gobots connection. I bought the first few waves, but the longer they take, the more likely I am to find other things to occupy my time and disposable income.

Collecting Gobots is not one of my major life-goals. You may be just fine waiting a decade to get the characters you're interested in. I'm not. If they want to hold my interest, they need to get their act together already.

 

Maybe they are fans and this is their pet project?

 

You should try watching Revenge of Cronos. There are a subtitles on YouTube channel.

 

Looks like the missile turret turns.

 

Maybe not but the world's #1 GoBots fan agrees with your assessment that the foot-dragging has to stop.

Also I will never ever understand the love affair with Revenge of Chronos. It's like the rage against Hanna Barbera is so dense that it warps reality for some people. Doesn't hold a candle to the grudge held on behalf of Mighty Orbots though...

 

Can't someone like all three shows? Four shows if you count Battle Hackers.

However, I can't stand Machine Robo Rescue! That shows sucks.

 

I would give my left nut for some 3P Orbots. That theme song still rattles around in my head periodically.

 

You know for years I thought mighty Orbots was the US port of God Mars.

 

I have designed several simple 3d printed figures. I really should make one that looks like Mighty Orbots.



Okay, just for giggles, I pieced together a robot from parts I already made, but recolored it in Orbots colors.

 

You and me both. It was fucking awesome. I remember it aired maybe a few Saturdays then disappeared(I know why years after the fact). I kept asking my Dad where did the show go so he got me some of the VHS tapes of the show. I watched those tapes til they wore out. Screw it, that theme was even better than "The Touch"

 

Its too bad we never got a SOC remold of GodMars   Then again we haven't gotten Baikanfu as Gardian and I thought that was almost a given to happen...

As for Action Robo being slow...they are part of Fewture, which pretty much NEVER gets anything out quickly. Heck, I'm still waiting on pieces they announced YEARS ago

 

At least on the plus side, my worries about having missed that train were unnecessary.  

 

I guess I should get around to preordering Spacy.

 

i like the launchpad display on shuttle robo...the ones i have i have displayed in robo mode but that's tempting to keep it in shuttle mode...

i echo the sentiments around blue jet and supercar robo.....also, is there anything more around tough trailer or pro truck racer? i only recall the prototypes. i wonder if the line would even get as far as them.

 

Nope. Right now no news on further toys. We have seen color versions of Supercar and Blue Jet, as well as prototypes of Steam, Pro Truck Racer, Tough Trailer and Jet Transer. There was art of a Bike Robo DX. So that means potentially 7 more figures after Missile Tank and Shuttle.

 

I'm still holding out for Shuttle and Missile Tank Robo (again, if I could handle TR Sixshot's release date being pushed back about five months from the original estimate I can handle this just fine) but I have to agree, this has been agonizingly slow. Action Toys needs to get around to churning these figures out faster or there's no way in hell this line's going to survive any further.

 

Looks like this line has pretty much stalled out. Eh, doesn't really matter, I guess. I really wanted to like this line, but not being able to get the main six from Go-Bots ultimately killed my interest in it anyway.

 

Alt mode on DX Bike Robo.
