To be fair very few things in life are.

Naturally with them being symmetrical, you can combine them the other way around. Roga! Doublefang! once again the stock configuration is ehhhhh Much better. Personally I much prefer this configuration, the face is much meaner and less derpy looking, and...

Thats right. it wouldn't be a Takara toyline without being completely obsessed with combining. this may look familiar to you if you know your Multiforce or Superlinks. Tiga! Doublefang! This combined...

They look pretty great together in every mode, Tigamaru's bright and clownish colors compliment Rogumaru's dark and moody ones perfectly. in the show they're quite agile and tend to use each other to preform all sorts of stunts...

In the many years that Transformers has existed in Japan its had many contemporary Takara-made replacements for when sales were low or when they just wanted to try something different with the Transforming robot-shtick. Brave is probably the most well known, running for 8 years, we currently...

The Action Masters aren't exactly the most fondly looked back on part of the franchise, the reasons are pretty self explanatory; "its a Transformer that doesn't transform? well whats the point of that?" for the most part I would agree. non-transforming Transformers aren't exactly my idea of a...

I've already stated that the cheapness and hollowness isnt the problem, it's just outright weird design decisions. this isnt a situation where they had a great toy in mind that they just had to mangle in order to fit in the budget, the arms hiding away should have been in the blueprints, the...

Yeah I specifically did not bring up durability because most Diaclone/Microchange molds aren't exactly solid either, if this was on some 86+ stuff I could definitely go over on how much better the durability and longevity is on them compared to a chug equivalent.

So before I get into anything I just want to say this isn't meant to be a call out post or a way to shame people for buying mainline figures, or even some superiority complex about g1 toys, this is just something thats been on my mind for a while now and getting Liftticket this morning finally...
