    the ball joints look to be the same size. These will be very useful for parts. Especially at that price

    Some of them look kind of cool, not really my kind of thing though.
    Bumblebee as a 3-changer, I laughed at that.

    I can't say these are completely hideous. I mean, I'm not fond of a lot of them, but the sheer potential that this has... Is like nothing Hasbro's ever done before. I mean, when the Kreo started they were pretty weak looking too, but after a little refinement, they were pretty awesome. The Star Wars TF toys started off pretty unimpressive, but eventually, they developed some neat guys from that line as well. It may not be perfect right now... But with a little development, this could be huge.

    At the very least, it ought to revolutionize kitbashing.

    Until they make a figure of him with a different name to avoid Copyright crap, probably.

    Interesting, I personally won't buy one (I say this now, but I could change my mind), but they look fun.

    So, like Kre-O Bionicles (yeah, not exactly, but...)? Interesting, I think this has some potential.

    Very interesting. I will pick up at least on set to see how they are. The one thing I'm wondering is if you will have to completely disassemble the figures and put them back together again for the 'transformation'.

    If that's what they're doing, I'd like some direct to DVD fiction.

    The concept sounded okay. Then I looked at the pictures..... No thank you. I'd rather not have Transformers Bionicles. Can we have some REAL Transformers again? And not that Beast Hunters crap, either. Why is it so hard to make more good beast figures? Thundertron appears to have turned out rather well, and yet they can't get any others right? Ugh.

    My thoughts exactly - Hasbro's rip-off of Bionicle. All the alt-modes look basically the same thought. Might be picking up Blitzwing, probably that's it.
    I mean, when you look at what you get for those things, you might as well buy Hero Factory and actually get a decent figure.
