    Hmm, does the small one scale well with that Eagle Robo? I'm guessing the big one doesn't.

    he is meant to scale but he is a fair bit taller so it’s not like an eye to eye nemesis thing.

    Here’s the whole gang, minus tiny CyKill who I no longer have (MRR Blue Jet added as a placeholder)

    For an idea of size here are the taller guys with two of the most recent deluxe size Transformers.

    I really like how the line isn’t all the same height. With Blackbird and Rod Drill being the shortest, followed by Shuttle and Battle and then Mixer, Missle and Eagle being the tallest I think it makes for a more visually interesting display.

    (Mixer’s leg is mistransformed, d’oh!)

    We can only hope and dream. Though even carbot size would click in my case.

    Now that you mention it, how well does the big Cykill match up to the MP seekers?
    That should/could give an indication on the inevetable bigger Leader one Release.

    He's about as tall as a current voyager.

    I know this is an old thread but I hope Leader-1 DX is still on the cards. That being said I'd hope they'd do at least the handful of main characters on each side.

    If we got Leader-1, Crasher, Cop-tur, Scooter, Turbo and maybe Fitor all at DX scale all with cartoon options that'd be so awesome.

    I second this motion. I have no desire to own a full line of MP Go Bots, but I would love to complete a display with the main characters on each side. Especially if the others turn out as amazing as that Cykill did. That thing was damn near SOC quality.

    Yup.

    Yup. I couldn't bring myself to buy more than Bike Robo of the little Action Toys guys (and that was just to round out a collection that includes an original Cy-Kill, Super Gobots Cy-Kill, and Bike Robo DX), but Bike Robo DX is so good I would definitely buy the other five main Go-Bots.

    Honestly, even though I keep saying I wouldn't go nuts on a whole MP-esque Go-Bots collection and I just want the main characters, I gotta be honest and say that I would probably buy every Machine Robo DX figure, as long as Action Toys keeps including Hanna-Barbera options. Y'know, assuming they could release them faster than Gigapower releases their Gigasaurs.

    I love the original machine robo toys when I was a kid, I think I have at least 20 of them, in Hong Kong, they are very affordable, you can even find them for sale in a dairy store, new team member release like every other week.

    Micro Change was a much more expensive toy line back then and could only be found in normal toy store, luckily when Transformers launched, my family can afford almost any toy I wanted.

    As much as I love Transformers I have a lot of very fond memories of GoBots & Rocklords. Some of my favorites were Scooter, Leader-1, Smallfoot, Cop-tur & Slicks (evil mirage) teaming up with my Autobots & Decepticons. If they did MP size I too would buy them all honestly would be hard not to.

    That's the issue. I'm not expecting Zeta levels of release but even a cpl of prototypes to show what's coming would be enough to show us what's planned.

    Holy shit those are epic! There a thread for that?
    Hell yeah. Also if KFC could make a CyKill from one of their junkion molds. And maketoys do a leader one from their starscream.

    With the new comic out I broke down and bought the 1st season of Gobots on YouTube.
    I would love MP scaled versions of:
    1. Leader One: Starscream’s height with 2 heads: cartoon and toy
    2. Turbo: carbot scale
    3. Scooter: minibot scale
    4. Small foot: carbot scale
    5. Cykill: Ironhide scale
    6. Crasher: with animated head
    7. Coptur: Starscream scale
    8. Fitor: Starscream scale
    9. Pathfinder: Hotrod scale
    10. Tank: Ironhide scale

    Same here. I actually liked Gobots FIRST, and was actually anti "copycat" Transformers at first. Then I watched the G1 cartoon and played with a friend's Transformers...Game. Set. Match. ;)

    We already have a large MP scaled Cy-kill in DX Bike Robo who has multiple alternate Cy-kill faces:

    He's awesome. Fully articulated hands, ab crunch, high leg movement for spot on kneeling stances and blast effects. It was said there were multiple more at this scale in the works with a Leader-1 to match but we're still waiting to see anything.

    Oh yeah I know about the action toys machine robo line. But I’m just a big fan of people making gobot retools from transformers.
