Re: Gravity Bots?

True dat.
Plus, while the gimmick is engineeringly cool, it still falls in the category of
'Transformers for the dexterity-challenged' !

They are really fun, but overpriced. Love the bumblebee, but won't buy more unless on sale (say $10 or less)

Re: Gravity Bots?

Watched a couple vids on these and they look really rad. Will probably pick up Prime and Sideswipe at some point, but not at full price.

Its a market mix price strategy. We aren't the audience for Battle Bumper or RPM's. If a parent or gift giver walks into a toys tore looking for a Transformer for a kid. Battle Bumper, GB's, FABs and Deluxes are the comparable size wise and the of comparable "level" of gift. Like a mid-sized gift. And the only thing that matters is that Hasbro gets $15 out ofthe person. Because a person typically goes into purchase a gift with a level of spending first. The only difference is the intended audience.

Usually I try to be cleared with my arguments, but this one seems all over the place.

But yeah. I want them. But on sale.
