I am going to say okay effort, but nowhere close to binaltech standard.
wow! great find. These are actually really cool.
Why cant we have toys like this for kids over here...
Tempting to buy one.
It's like the Tonka truck of Transformers.
You do realize that these are made for CHILDREN right?Quote:

I have the earlier, smaller X and Y tobots. They look great but are loose, floppy and made of thin plastic.
Adventure Z looks like a marked improvement. I'd be tempted to buy it if it was available in a smaller size.
Hmm... It doesn't seem to be like for children, it looks half arse serious.Quote:

Well seeing as it is for the KOREAN market. How can you even say that?Quote:

The bot looks awesome. A lot better then anything hasblow can muster. Hell even looks tons better then some Transformers. :eek:
I think you're too spoiled with Japanese bots that you have. Its like you're expecting such great things from a toy that gears towards 4yr old Korean children.
Not only is Z cool.

These are really cool. But at $75 a pop. Man, expensive kids toys. They really do look great.
Just going through all the youtube videos noticed that the show for this toyline has been running for 16 seasons?! How long is a tv season in Korea? It also has a loose spin-off based around bicycles/sentai/mecha and the zodiac and there's another show featuring funny animals that turn into sentai and pilot vehicles that change into robots.
These guys have done well! :D
Not denying it, that's why I said they looked okay. They do look serious enough and effort enough to get Kia involved.Quote:

Yeah, I'd love to get them for my kid, but damn $75ea - better spent on other stuff.Quote:

There is a shop in Eastwood (NSW) which sells them. Not sure of the price though...
I happen to stumble into this shop in Eastwood over the weekend as well. Not sure how much they cost as there are no price tags and I didnt ask for it.
