Does anybody have any experiences with this line?
I've always been curious since Mach Baron because they tend to make figures of obscure /m/ shit that'd otherwise never get a new toy.
Coming from someone who owns a Re-issue Takara Jeeg, I'd imagine the magnet joints on these probably don't last well at all and are a pain.

Got the Nyago King and even at a steep discount I felt ripped off.

The magnetic joints are a terrible gimmick that feels way too loose due to being reinforced by rubber in only a few areas, can only hold the most basic poses and are a far cry from something like the godly Denjikou Jeeg gokin that can be held horizontally by the legs.
Engineering-wise it's completely basic shit akin to what you'd find on dollar-store bootlegs and the same goes for the plastic they used that just feels lightweight and cheap.
Oh yeah, and the V-fin wasn't glued on an fell out of its socket inside the box.
The paintjob is sloppy with tons of errors like color bleeding, touch-ups and dirt speckles under the paint and hell, the inside of the cat-head on its back isn't even properly painted inside and you're looking on the blank primer.

This isn't even an unfortunate isolated case but an issue with the ENTIRE line and pretty much everything robot-related this company does.
Collection DX has reviewed multiple ones and they pretty much had every issue you could think of: toy design and engineering from two decades ago, missing pieces, parts breaking even when handling the toys with care, functions not working properly, insanely overpriced and just plain terrible.
The only positive thing they can say about the figures is basically "well, no one else is doing those mechs so beggars can't be choosers *shrug* ".

The only robot from the like I have is Robot Jr and it must be the only one not suffering from any problems - and I bet that's only because it's so small and lightweight that the magnetic joints never become an issue.

I bought their last Grendizer. It was complete shit. The thing felt so light and fragile it could have passed for a KO.

Pretty much since it was part of their S! series that was smaller than the regular figures and as simple as it can get.
When you check out their other stuff then shit quickly hits the fan once the functions and details demand actual engineering.
Like, I seriously have to wonder how a company can look at this, think "yeah, this is adequate for a premium product in 2016" and demand over 30.000 fucking Yen for it.
This isn't a high-end figure, this belongs onto a blister card.
