>DA-93 is the most preordered Diaclone item for China and HK
Some Japanese Diaclone fans have been complaining about Chinese and Hong Kongers hoarding certain Diaclone stuff leading to the awkward situation of Japanese buyers getting their preorders cancelled. Imagine being a Japanese dude and being told that your preorder of something sold by a Japanese company meant to be sold exclusively in Japan is cancelled because reasons, and when you go online to do your research you find out that it's because China and HK fans almost always get their grubby mitts on Diaclone goods first for the simple reason that the products are all made in China. There's also been some grumbling in the Japanese netspace about DA-80 having several QC issues - the most ubiquitous of which being the rotating shoulder pieces and ankles being too loose. I sure hope the Robot Base Project won't suffer this same kind of drama.

Also I hope they took inspiration from this guy's fan art for the design.

HK and Japan have different distributors for Diaclone. China and everywhere else outside Japan draw from the same HK distro's stock so if anything it should be Hongkongers complaining, but they can't because of the NSL lol.

There are still a lot of overseas collectors buying directly from Japanese Retailers because they are more accessible compared to HK ones, so you can't rule out the gajin-theory completely. It's just unlikely to be mostly scalpers from HK and China, TakaTomy Mall-exclusive colors aren't even exclusive at the HK distro.

It will. Every large scale toy requires a compromise to function as intended. Ergo When you get over a certain size and weight, it's a matter of managing compromises to get the best overall product. This is evident in the big powered releases that have their own bundle of issues, especially the DA-80, but overall they achieved their intended function well enough considering the size. A big "titan class" robot toy like the siege omega is a good robotbase comparison, and achieves everything a robotbase should do well because it has a lot of hollow space, tight (but limited) articulation, and simple transforming mechanism to give the best overall package, a giant robot figure and suggested base mode.

My opinion is that the robot base will have fantastic detail, and fantastic play value, but it will suffer a crippling flaw. Hopefully I'm wrong....

That bit about the Siege Omega is a very good point. I used to have all 4 of them from the Omega Wars involving Hasbro and the 3 third parties (FT, WJ and DX9), and Siege was objectively the best toy out of all 4. People seethed about its partsforming but that's par for the course with TF fans, while with Diaclone it's the entire point so I can totally see a Robot Base that is functionally similar to Siege Omega, or even the Earthrise Scorponok if they wanted to make it a bit more all-in-one. I still regret letting the Siege go because he would have fit right in with Diaclone and even Legends scale TF stuff.

Coincidentally those two figures proved that TT already knows how to work with big/heavy duty ratchets that they should have at least tried using on the Big Powereds, and would be absolutely necessary on a Robot Base.

Because that's never happened before... the other 3 went for toon accuracy & look bland as shit for what they cost. Siege looks better even if it's not purely G1 toy & the Toyhax set works wonders on it. Pity about the translucent claw.

Yeah omega was great, his leg compartments would definitely fit a tacticool mech in each leg. In hindsight, I should've kept him, some customisation to turn him into another dianaut compatible titan robot. The bulk and build are spectacular, plus he was really easy to handle and play with. Might try and buy him again for this purpose.

I ended up going all in on this line after getting a Soryu to try. Now I have Abyssal, Magni, Medusa Mk III, Ronin's orange variant, Soldier Ant, Soryu, and Titank so far. With a second Abyssal and Soryu that I combined together into one big monster, Rotor and Flame Ant on the way, plus plans to get a Proteus when I order my Akaden and the white Akaden variant when it arrives.

They use 4mm pegs but several of them include adapters to be 3mm compatible so I've been getting some M.S.G. kits to add weapons to them too.

These are suprisingly modular but I dont really mix them up although its possible. All the armor can be removed and the inner frames can be taken apart. Not sure where else to post it as its 1:24 scale.

Decided to bite the bullet and ordered the EM-05. They are doing bundles but the prices are a bit too rich for my blood. What am I in for? Are E-Monster pilots interchangeable with Dianauts?

>>9964202
The most you can do with them is mix and match the armor parts between units that use similar frames, like FEAR IV and V, but yeah they're kinda customizable. I've been getting the impression that they're leaning more and more towards their 1:18 stuff though, especially because their Warhammer lineup is also 1:18.

The pilots that come with their mechs (I don't have them) should be interchangeable with Dianauts. The 4-pack ones come with a molded-on rifle and may not fit tight diaclone cockpits.

That is pretty dang cool.

Archecore is still so weird to me though. When it was getting previewed, I was like "cool, this is almost like Warhammer minis with articulation." But now we have actual Warhammer toys, and they're awesome and affordable. And Archecore designs have been pleasing me less and less, and they're stupid expensive. This line had potential, but poor timing and high pricing drove me away.

I will say this about Diabattles, he can't really wear his upgrades without a stand. His riginal wings are fine, but his ankles aren't quite enough to stand reliably for long under the weight of his Cosmo backpack. On the other hand Convoy is an absolute beast, load him up, he doesn't give a shit. But I can't stay mad at Diabattles, I have actual nostalgia goggles since I had KO King Dam back in the day.

I don't think Exhobby sells anywhere else, outside of some physical hobby shops in Japan. Maybe you could wishlist it or follow their twitter to see if they'll ever reprint it.

If you want to use generic steel rubber sheets, I believe the thickness is around 0.5mm

Are the white parts painted? The sad thing is all the official TFs use different sized peg holes so you can't plug Diaclone bits on them and vice versa. Takara clearly knew if they built that compatibility in people will be supplementing their Diaclone collection with the much cheaper WFC shit.

It's indeed a shame that Diaclone Reboot is using 4mm pegs. Their Tomica Hyper/Hero and Shinkalion lines however, share the same 5mm pegs as TFs.

98 RMB is still quite cheap, this is a good deal. I hope they choose good colors.Especially since these things usually only use a few colors of plastic and have no paint apps or stickers, so they will need to pick and choose carefully to make ornate Egyptian designs look good.

Quite small, they are 1/24 so the same as Hexa Gear. They feel durable and fun to play with despite their small size.

I highly recommend getting a pair of tweezers to insert the joint pins though, they are incredibly tiny and difficult to work with no matter how small your hands are.

Looking on Twitter, this is the “Lambda” iteration of the Bulkarm, which sounds about right, seeing as the V-Thor has really broken the previous aesthetic tradition of the bipedal mecha. I like that the two directions that Hexa Gear has progressed down are “fucked up mechanical animals” and “humanoid/bipedal mecha,” but I’m wondering if the former will adopt the smoother lines and shapes like the latter. Some of the smaller drone stuff like the dogs, bird, and wasp have, but I think they might be hesitant to commit to the larger animals due to how close the line might look against Zoids.

This design is pretty safe and boring. Hexa Gear loses me more and more with every reveal. Acid Rain is going the same way with more dull, generic-looking sci fi designs rather than the gritty stuff I fell in love with.

I mean, it’s more generic human in the limb design, but it is still in line with the Bulkarm proportions and structure. Do you prefer more industrial design? That’s one of the appeals of the earlier 30MM body shapes IMO, and the reason I dislike the newer Spinatia/o designs. But I kinda dig this very of the Bulkarm.

Yes, I think I prefer more rough, industrial looking designs. But I also appreciate really over-the-top stuff like the beast vehicles in Hexa Gear. This just doesn't work for me because it's neither, it's sorta just...miscellaneous sci-fi.

However, I'm not here to yuck any yums. I don't think it's actually a bad design, the knight-like head is cool and the proportions are actually quite pleasant with the thickness in the hips and shoulders. It's just not super interesting to me personally.

I feel you. Did you at least like this fucking crazy six-legged nightmare tank they showed?

I love industrial stuff too and I’m kind of disappointed they haven’t taken that in any new direction since the Loudgale (which I own and love as an extension of the Bulkarm line) but maybe the sales of the Loudgale and it’s EX kind of swayed them to go for smoother stuff? Who can say. I’m kind of down for industrial/generic sci-fi stuff in all forms, especially since you don’t see it all that often at the 1/24 scale, so anything helps. I currently have two Bulkarms, a Loudgale, and a V-Thor on the way and I definitely feel like the V-Thor and Bulkarm Lambda are going to clash aesthetically, but I do think I can swing it as a “faction” oriented thing.

Uh, anyway, rant over. Thanks for the pleasant conversation, it’s cool to just be able to talk about modular robots and not have anyone dragging one another’s taste.

Got my copy of this dude. This pic is kind of misleading because the bot there has some extra accessories that you don't get by only buying EM-05; namely two additional missile pods, pauldrons done in a similar style as the lower limb armor and "ugg boots" for the mecha's feet.

The plastics used are very reminiscent of Iron Factory - and the shoulder and hip joints are ball joints, so some future (heh) maintenance will eventually be needed. Some of the joints on mine have loosened from just an hour or so of fooling around with it, not to the point of being annoying, but you can definitely tell it's there. Articulation is superb, especially the less armor you put on it, but that is to be expected considering its framebot styling. One bit I don't like is that you have to lift the "brachial plexus" missile pod cover if you want to maximize its head articulation.

The pilot is interchangeable with any Dianaut, as in you can have any Dianaut inside the EM's cockpit, but due to the molded in rifle on the EM pilot's right arm, you can't jam them in the tight spaces of Bullet Cores although you can work it out on stuff like Versaulters. Also since it's a simple peg you can just remove the rifle arm altogether. The pilots do not feature magnets on their feet but they use ball joints for the shoulders and hips so they are a bit easier to pose than Dianauts.

You get two different head armor that simply slot in with friction onto the standard framebot head. Height wise it can fully extend its legs to be on par with Versaulters or MS/NA TFs. If you want to wear the leg armor you have to make it go full digitigrade which shortens the total height a bit.

The most interesting bit about this dude is that it has quite a bit of 4mm pegs so you can peg Diaclone stuff on its body, and of course, you can also put EM kibble on Diaclone bots. It can wield all of the Versaulter's weapons which is neat.

All in all it's a decent effort especially considering the price.

Way too big if true. If only the lower half is 17 inches tall, that would make the completed bot approx. 3 feet tall. The original was what, 18 inches total? Yikes. Something that big will make it unwieldly and likely very, very busy design wise. I hope this rumor is incorrect.

Judging from this comparison the Grandion seems like it'd be 2/3rds of the total height instead of half, so the full robot would be around 60-ish cm, 70ish at most if you want to be autistic and have to measure to the very top of the giant antennas. That'd actually be consistent with the increase in size for the other old bots that also got rebooted such as the Big Powered and Battle Buffalo, not to mention that the biggest giga nigga mold TT has made so far would be the Unicron, which was also around 27" in height.

Definitely a smart move to sell him in two halves.
The upper chest will probably be quite lightweight due to the space inside the chest, so the Grandion will probably be the biggest and heaviest of the two sets (unless they add loads of extra stuff to the upper half set). I hope they give the waist connection a giant triverse joint like on the smaller figures. But very impressed with what I've seen so far.

Agreed. I'm inclined to think if the thing had to be shipped as a single package, the box would easily be as big as DX9 Omega Supreme's (which was pretty much the size of a mini fridge's box), and that's assuming all the extra stuff is only for the lower half/Grandion. I've never been this hyped for an upcoming toy release in my life. To think that not even a month ago a bunch of Japanese fans seethed because TT teased only Dia-Guardion, and this after merely using old footage to announce the Robot Base Project and yet removing its actual silhouette from the video.

My feeling on this is Takaratomy is testing the water with a combo set, to see how many collectors (keyword) will get the set, or even multiple.
By the website story and staff description these Robot Base are satellite stations for one or teams (collector's collection).
Perhaps they already have something larger in mind already... like a much bigger base "Giga Zone" and it's AI "Land Master".

I'd be surprised if they haven't also planned a Fortress X. It would only require some retooling since the original was pretty much the same size and overall shape as Robot Base, if just a bit smaller, and from what I can see in reviews and pictures it has fewer, but more integrated gimmicks that work in all modes. There is definitely a market for these gigantic 1:60 basebots.

I don't think the vintage line ever had a Waruder rival for Robot Base. Perhaps because Hasbro and the TF brand then came to the scene.

But if it were up to me, considering everything including the Warudaros and the upcoming DA-94 Vajra that looks a ton like Gigatron, I'd design something that looks and functions like Scorponok or Trypticon, to keep the "evil looking Beast Wars mecha" theme that recent Waruders have.

And even now, it still seems like TT just want us to army build with identical Waruder mooks mixed with a few unique "leaders" like the Warudaros, kind of like what people used to do with Sharkticons, Sweeps etc.

In Diaclone / Gridman universe spinoff Land Master met with Gridman. Land Master is a crystallized mechanical humanoid from that could transform into different forms by crossing his arms to his chest.
Another Takara old toy Henshin Cyborg 1 "Katagai Kenichi" is a crystallized mechanical humanoid. He could transform into different characters by crossing his arms to his chest.
Henshin Cyborg 1's arch nemesis is King Waruda.
Assuming Diaclone's Landmaster is Katagai Kenichi, his youngest brother Katagai Akira helped Microman / Micronauts in his own series.
Then Kenichi and Akira's dad Professor Katagai is the developer of Kenichi's cyborg body and Android A.

I start to think Takaratomy might have thoughts to reboot Henshin Cyborg, Android A and Microman very soon if Diaclone have good results.

>Land Master
I checked out the old Takara ads because that description felt familiar. Turns out I've seen it a few times. Its commercials advertised it as being able to shapeshift to Ultraman Taro, Mazinger Z and even various Kamen Riders. The Henshin Cyborg line also featured an animal body mold that can partsform to make a jaguar or a griffin-like creature. This and the Henshin Cyborg being able to partsform his accessories to make all sorts of weapons were probably the starting point of Takara's fascination with transforming and modular bots. The articulation on these was also impressive for its time. It's interesting to learn that Takara basically sticked around to that particular universe for all this time.

I dunno, TakaraTomy isn't the best at milking nostalgia themselves. A lot of Transformers and Diaclone rebooting wouldn't happen without Hasbro's involvement, including their HK-based branch's efforts. Even for Gridman, they came in relatively late to its second-wind, long after GSC and Bandai had their turn.

You also have to factor in how SSSS.Gridman including the Diaclone crossover is made by the Trigger crew, and they love making deep-cut references and throwbacks regardless of the potential for merch.

That said, Trigger did get Gridman rolling with a 7-minute short anime, so maybe this small Landmaster cameo may cascade into something larger with enough interest.

I have the one that comes with the up-armor ship thing and it looks comparable. It's...fine. feels a bit light/cheap, and I just hate the engineering on the forearms and wrists. The bit of the gauntlety part that comes out under the wrist gets in the way when holding the sword like in the pic there.

I think the Diaclone version has compromises made for the armor-up gimmick, so I would've gone for the Figma instead if I wanted Gridman PF alone.

What are the odds of Diaclone tackling things like a direct Machine Dragon remake or the dino robos that became the dinobots?

I know we've gotten some parts of waruders that vaguely match machine dragon, but nothing full on, and the best arms/legs for it are undersized for the massive drago head.

Just feels like the dinos are arguably quite a famous subset on the line and something that could be very interesting to see with the current design philosophies.

With the current design philosophy, Machine Dragon and the Dinobots would just look like Zoids but with their classic colors. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I can see them rebooting the Dinobots to capitalize on their relation to the TF franchise, not so sure about Machine Dragon.

If they release any of the dinos they will probably be modular blocks interchangeable with other existing DA numbers, just to differentiate themselves with the TF line.
This is why I think a reboot of Microman or even Henshin Cyborg in modular combiner form could be possible when taking cues from Kaiyodo's Assemble Borg series.

The Dragohead might be all we get for Machine Dragon, its profile mention that it's imitating the look of a KyoJuu Dragon, which seems to be name for the beast before it got turned into a cyborg.
https://www.takaratomy.co.jp/products/diaclone/product_details/warudaros_eg.html
So maybe Waruders have moved past that one time they were brainwashing dinosaurs.

>>10024471
Machine Dragon is a little different because it has fleshy organic parts hence its full title Cyborg Kaijuu. Just doing the usual waruder-biomechanical-aesthetic doesn't feel enough for a proper update, I'd rather they just skip it.

There is also the small issue of how Machine Dragon's toy was a retool of their licensed Machine Saurer toy, a character from a lesser-known Go Nagai manga of the same name. So who knows how far they can replicate the old toy without digging up some old rights issue.

Takara is unlikely to revisit Machine Dragon or the Dinobots under the Diaclone line. Machine Dragon was not a Diaclone original and yet another take on the Dinobots is not a good use of the Diaclone property.

That’s too bad, it’s adorable.

Glad to see Diaclone fans eating well. Not much of a fan of the aesthetics but I totally get the masculine urge to have big blocky mecha. The newer stuff is more in my wheelhouse, but I can’t justify buying another scale.

I think the torso area is easily the biggest problem- I know it's only one half of the bot and they've split the upper windscreen but that's part of the issue. The OG's biggest appeal and best features were all tied to that gorgeous fold down window and revealing a cavernous interior. The escalator went into it, there was the gigantic missle station, and then a whole other giant top area with the iconic rotating control seats and the amazing shiny control panels. This looks like it has none of it. The lift in the back opens into a tiny black detailess void which may or may not have missles. Then the (half) window looks like another cramped seating area. I was holding out for this to actually feel like a base, but at first glance it looks like yet another diaclone item with just a bunch of seats. Also really feeling the lack of chrome here. On many of the other toys it didn't seem necessary, but this has such an iconic look that it really does feel off to not have at least a bit of it.

Chrome isn't at all a deal breaker for me. Chrome in toys are always a pain to maintain without losing its luster. I wish they keep the transparent plastic on the torso though. They mentioned a large missile and ton of features have been bought back so its still possible. So far its pretty one to one. I more curious to see how this thing transforms

The top part of the bridge is said to be another detachable flying command center, so I don't think that will be part of the Robot Base robot mode after combining with the upper torso.

It's not a deal breaker for me, but it would have been nice. I don't care about it losing it's luster, all toys break down one way or another over decades, it's not like it shits the bed in 2 years or less or something. No need to post the handful of transformers that did shit the bed after 2 years, I don't give a shit, i mean in general. I'm much more concerned with the lack of actual base and inner play area.

>>10025446
this is also kind of a bummer, I wasn't expecting anything huge, but even still it feels a bit undersized, especially for them increasing the size of everything so much. This is going to be a bigger toy than the original and yet so far it feels like play area is smaller.

That's very true.
If there is a way to open up the compartments and make use of it like the Battle Convoy V-Max container, add extra stations into it so it will be a become a real "base".
Now it is just one of the many Diaclone robots that has a vehicle mode and a tower mode.

If anything I'd avoid buying this if it has any chrome. Glad to see that the drill bits are not chromed and instead painted metallic silver. I think the only transparent plastic they'll keep is the big orange ones on the actual chest, the new version of which we haven't seen.

Also Twitter artist moyan0802 drew some takes on how he thinks the thing will transform. Can't post them because image limit reached, unfortunately.
