    That is great to hear, I think that's one of the main things I like most about this line.

    I decided not to keep my Warudaraider Raptor set. I just wasn’t feeling it. It’s in the sale forum if anyone is interested.

    So I've been really sceptical of this line for a long time. Their rather expensive for what you get. The small mech suits and alien robots are impossible for me to personally justify.

    However I've been thinking it over a lot, and there are a few I'm looking forward to get. Namely Battle Buffalo, the new blue ground based one (i forget the name) and Big Powered GV Destroyer.

    Big Powered in particular I'm super excited for. I'm saving up for it right now and should be able to order it in just a few days!

    Anyone found a good use for the effect piece that comes with the Hammer/Smashy Targetmaster from the Transformers Siege line? The gun ones are usually pretty easy, but this one's a bit of an odd duck.

    Lots of new people diving in to the line with this latest release it seems?

    Any of you interested in the last of my Diaclone Reboot I'm clearing out, just send me a PM. It's all going to ebay soon if I don't sell it here.

    Maneuver Alpha, Beta (Alpha opened, Beta unopened)
    Warudersuit 2x Red, 2x Blue (one blue opened, others unopened)
    Gyroseptor (unopened)
    Powered Suit C (unopened)
    Powered Suit E (unopened)
    Waruder Raptor unit (unopened, actually just delivered after I'd decided these all need to go)

    Pics/prices in my sale thread.

    fs: the rest of my Diaclone reboot figures (plus related TF figs)

    One thing I love about Diaclone is the absolutely insane level of playability and mode/combination potential. Not to mention the manic implications that come with it.

    Take Big Powered for example. Imagine you're driving in your big jeep buggy thing. Then that plugs into a tank. Boom. You're driving a tank now. But then a jet comes down, lands on top of your tank, and drops of some huge engines. Next thing you know your combo jeep tank is flying in the air! And that's only half the set!

    I can vouch for this upstanding gentleman. He's legit!

    That said, after I recently bought a few more pieces from @deruberhanyok , I think my time in the Diaclone community is drawing to a close. While I truly love this line, I need to prioritize and bring a bit more focus into my collecting habits.
    Unfortunately, Diaclone needs to go.

    I'll eventually put a list up, but I just want to say it's been awesome here with you guys!

    So I had the upcoming Tri releases pre-ordered already, but now I'm talking to someone about buying their Moonbase Dia-battles and I just pre-ordered the Strike Buffalo in the same colors...

    I've been combing this thread and I saw the Hexabug base stuff and now all I want to do is set up a crazy base on my desk at home. I don't even have any of this shit yet and I'm already dreaming big. This is a problem guys.

    They’re probably others on this board with waaaaay better comparison options. My “official” purchase history consists of all the figure packs, da-08ex, da-27, da-36 and now this bad boy da-33. Everything else “diaclone” has been mft (my budget appreciates mft).

    Tri-jetter looks so damn cool. It has some awesome jet/space ship stuff that I'm hoping will lend itself to some great fighters.
