    Default 3rd Party Datsuns

    Not sure how new or necessary these are. Seem to be about legends size.

    Oops I just saw this post, I posted it in the BBTS section. But exactly what I was thinking. My guess is that Ark Studios had already invested in the project but TakTom had beaten them to it, like what happened with Fans Toys and their not soundwave. But instead of cutting their loses, they decided to go ahead with the project anyway?

    Unless classics size, they are not gonna sell well at all. The MP datsuns are great.

    They're slightly longer than the Legends Class Prowl mold by 1cm (6.5cm vs 7.5cm) But $140 UsD for 3, or $50 UsD each... Good luck with that.

    They're very cool but just too expensive.

    it basically looks like they just gave the legends prowl some articulation...

    for $50 i'd rather get 2 hasbro voyagers on sale.

    These will end up in clearance.

    What were they thinking? They would need to be way cheaper and be supported by a very good (scale, articulation wise) and populated line for people to consider them. I don't think we want to replace our legends Prowl that desparately.

    No doubt. it also makes me question why people would invest time selling these... Unless of course the cost price is peanuts & they've put a severe mark up on them?
