    How many is it now? Four? That’s like 16 baby Insecticons! And you can put them in a hat! I love that.

    But for real they should make a Diaclone set.

    @GAUGE is a successful troll. People keep taking the bait.

    I don't know if any bait was successfully taken if we all disagreed in a very positive way, which we did. Isn't the motivation of a Troll generally to inflame?

    More of a respectful dissent from the views of someone who seems a bit salty, but that kind of nonsense is never going to dull my enthusiasm.

    Still, I'll add them to my 'Troll Radar' and if I notice another lame comment I'll just block/'ignore' - ain't nobody got time for that!

    I come here to share my passion, not complain about stuff that isn't relevant to me [ie: redecos I have no intention of buying - how does it hurt me if they exist, when other people might appreciate them?].

    Hell, I don't see why they're limiting themselves to pre-established themes. They're insects, gimme some real bug decos. Gimme some wacky neon shit like Krok. Gimme a shitload of reasons to throw my money at you for these wonderful toys.

    I held off on getting these cause it seemed a bit pricey for Legends scale bots, but baba had these in his new store for $45.98 after the coupon code. I may get another set after I check out the quality on them.

    oh you will most likely buy more. they are pretty well made. i thought they were a little on the pricey side for what you actually get. but it is what it is i guess.

    They're the best figures New Age has done yet, and definitely in my top 5 3P legends figures. You'll love them as long as you aren't expecting them to be very big.

    Got these guys yesterday and they're as great as I'd heard. Amazed there are no hollow bits in bot mode (like calves) or ugly backpacks at this size.

    Shit, while I don't have most Insecticon molds I'm flat-out declaring these the best Insecticon Trio figures yet. Fight me if you must but you know it's true. Let the truth wash over you and find peace in accepting it. We're all one in the truth.

    Huh? Oh, insecticons? Yeah, they're pretty great. I just saw that you were offering to fight.
