    I kind of wanted to get into the line via bughwad, but if that's true, maybe I'm better off waiting to try the trydashers
    Really? What makes you say that? And by how much is your guess? If I had to guess a cheaper price, my money is on 250

    That's where I'm at with my hobby dollars. I like the Diaclones enough that I'm fine with just buying the cool bots and skip the waruders.

    I’m not sure if you noticed, but this line takes a lot of liberties with the designs of classic characters. They don’t always look the same. This IS Warudaros.

    speaking of warudaros, I can't be the only one who kinda sees the fanshobby aesthetic in him, right? Not that that's a bad thing, he looks beautifully chunky. But another question is, where o we go from him waruder wise? If i remember, all thats left is the dragon and the diaclone insecticons, and someone mentioned that maybe warudaros is trying to also compensate for the dragon right? It makes me wonder if we will get new giant mechs.Something new. After all, one they run out of things to homage, where do they go from there. If i understand this correctly, we're approaching the end of the diaclone large mechs, right? Just multiforce, ad the greatest size diaclone mech, and other molds later used for transformers. Maybe Im just rambling. I wasn't around for diaclone after all.

    Maybe we'll get those flying saucer esque waruders which were seen in one of the cinematics?

    Actually, do those have any relevance in the old diaclone toyline? I dont think i saw anything from it, but maybe I'm wrong? That would be cool though. Wonder what kind of gimmick they could introduce using them...

    I really wish this one were darker, though I would imagine a future release will probably be black or IMS colored.
    For now though, he's still pretty awesome.

    I knew it wouldn't look like the original. My problem is it looks almost nothing like the design they teased way back at the beginning. I haven't gotten any Diaclone Reboot, since the first guy, but I was ready to shell out money for one of these. They ended up removing almost every trace of the insect design, to go for this dinosaur thing. I'm just not feeling it anymore.

    Oh man... Might have to go with this one. He looks better with Destroyer and BB than I expected.

    I can see where you are coming from, but I think that the picture below has more than a passing semblance to the source:

    [​IMG]

    And his fore arms have the insect legs and turn into modular creepy crawlers. But!

    ...this will be a lot of money, and I don't blame you for not liking it if it's not what you really want.



    I feel this picture summates why so many people love this line - looks great!

    Well they can probably remedy that, and I think that's intentional. One of the things about waruders so far is cross compatibility, yeah? And we know that warudaros can separate right. All theyve got to do Is create waruders that can act as replacement arms. Case in point, the insecticons were waruders right? They can make it so a reinterpretation of shrapnel can be an arm for warudaros. Just saying. We do know takara loves money after all.

    I need to know something. Does the 3 Triverse bots form 1 big robot or do they just cross combine vehicles?

    Where’s that news from?

    If true with a typical 20% discount it will be right at around $312 minus shipping. Whew. Now then... do I really want 3????
