I've seen a lot of debate over the real gear line, and I wanted to get some more opinions on it. Personally, I love the line, it's a nice little thing with some great molds going for it.
But this is about your opinons, so get to it! |

News Credits: 10 | The real gear line has some great molds in it (The camera, phone, video camera) But as of lately it has turned to crap with no new molds and way to many repaints.  http://kelseyconqueredthebus.tumblr.com/ |

Collection Count: about 360+/- | I absolutely love the real gear line and own one of each mold that has come out in Sweden so far. There's just too much to love with them. And for once the bots and cons are equal (not counting repaints) |

The many repaints aren't a bad thing to me, it just gives us more options to pick from if we don't like the color of the origional. They also make great kitbash fodder. Quote:

Not all the toys are great, and there's too many repaints, but the concept is great. We've finally, at last, got some TFs who turn into everyday objects again! Been waiting for that for a long time.

And, to tell the truth, I think some of the repaints are better than the originals. |
