I think Cardbots would do better with people if the vehicles didnt have the goofy eyes on them. I know thats their "thing", but it turns off alot of people. Maybe if they have a way to hide the eyes or something.
Some of these are a bit too greebly and g*ndam for my tastes but some are pretty cool. Lord knows Hasbro Takara could use some honest competition.
>>11876821I think you need to shut the fuck up about this already
>>11876984Put the eyes on panels that can flip out of the way so you can display it with no eyes. Or maybe make the eyes an insert piece that can be removed.I just hate that they look like cool vehicles, but then have cartoon eyes on them.
>>11876991make your own
>>11876992No.If any Metal Cardbots teammembers are browsing here trying to gauge interest in the series in north America, know that I and many other people WILL NOT BUY THESE, because they all have cartoon anime eyes on the vehicle modes. Its very off putting.
>>11876994you have brain damage you know that? cars merchandise sells very well, you fucking retard
Cars is for gay little babies. I dont want gay little baby toy eyes on my cool robot.
>>11876724Does this one have any heels? He looks like he'd fall backwards very easily.
>>11876969They are definitely beating Bandai, but Takara idk. This year they experimented with downsized Miniforce bots that used strong, friction-based joints similar to what Takara uses, but fans hated them because they lack those loud, clicky ratchets. The irony is that clicky ratchets are made using more common plastics so they have to be big to be durable, which in-turn limits how small and intricate the toys can be....but it's not like they really need to compete with Takara's smaller toys anyway. SAMG's toylines are still going strong despite the toys becoming larger every season.
They should put these in stores, not just BBTS and whatever. Kids would love this shit
>>11876994This guy looks sick as fuck. Giving me Yuusha and Unicron Trilogy TF vibes.
Some of 'em are pretty fuckin' neato, but either too extra or too blomby to fit my collection. They're also usually very expensive. I kinda want uhh... Safari? The truck from Cardbot. He might make a cool Decepticon.Anyone have recommendations for specific toys that might fit well in a mostly CHUG TF collection? In terms of size and aesthetics.Regarding the big cartoon eyes: Rubbing alcohol and/or a magic eraser.
>>11876994"People won't buy these" They're coming to North America because people were importing so many as they are now, retard!
>>11876984>shut the fuck up>>11876996>you have brain damage>you fucking retard>>11877451>retard!I didnt know Neca Anon also posted in the cardbot threads.
>>11877367>Anyone have recommendations for specific toys that might fit well in a mostly CHUG TF collection?Probably the first Cardbot wave. Miniforce stuff is more greebled
>>11876991You forget that Cars toys are some of the most successful toys of all time. I'm glad it filters adults, theres been too many kids hobbies overtaken by adult speculators.
>>11876735I just want Blackhook and Drills for hands
Are there size comparisons with TFs?
>BLACKED
more coming
>>11879360The cars are roughly the size of MPM cars.
>>11880251Of the season 1 stuff I only went Helicopter, boat, and ambulanceBut I may buy up this whole wave
>>11880251Are their cielo and skygallop zesty effeminate dudes too?
>>11879961Sleek
>>11880251Blastrain my beloved...
apparently they will start being released in japan as well
just two more years and it'll out pace transformers!
>>11880251sad that this stuff isn't hitting stores physically, but still, being able to get my hands on Glober sounds fun
>>11882744see if you still had toys r us and didnt flood toy aisles with ugly star wars slop you'd still get cool toys
>>11882903aren't star wars toys a fraction of what they used to be in terms of sales floor presence? It feels like only lego and specific brands for girls still have aisles to themselves
>>11880251I've got every season 2 toy but Red Blitz, so maybe I'll get his American release to help support.>>11881429According to an Agabyss rep on TFW2005, SAMG insists that Cielo and Skygallop are dudes despite the cartoon's production team repeatedly calling them women. SAMG are the ones providing the promotional material for the western release, so they get the final say here. They DID confirm that they're voiced by women in the upcoming english dub of Cardbot S though.
>>11876724>>11876727Why are these better than like every mainline sentai toy from the last ten years? They aren't even that much more.>>11880251This train guy mogs Bandai
>>11883691tbf bandai cannot do transforming robots at all. the chogokin choryujin was an incredible disappointment
>>11883691korean autism
what is machina core
>>11877345>Giving me Yuusha and Unicron Trilogy TF vibes.exactly my thoughts. It's wild that the Transformers name has been allowed to single-handedly dominate the transforming car-robot market when all someone would have to do to beat them is make toys like they were making 20 years ago.
>>11879961Are there any other female bots aside from her?
>>11887761Season 2's has two gay dudes see >>11883585Season 3 besides Tachy, Phantom Hornet has a female VA but marketing and wikis use male pronouns so he's one zesty ninjjahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7vhw_Qt7TU
>>11887764>>11887761why you weirdos obsessed with the sex of cartoon robots?
>>11887778Because I want to fuck a cartoon robot. Have to know which port I can plug into.
>>11887799>dont know about you anon but my ding a ling gets very chunky when I look at a children's toyyikes
>>11887764CGI stuff always looks so SOULESS
>>11880251when are these going up at BBTS?
