I still think they look like a knockoff of sd gundam.

Are these very popular? What age group do they appeal to?

News Credits: 2 · by **Darksong** » Wed Jan 30, 2008 2:00 am

I also usually only buy Transformers that actually transform, but something about these are just so darn cute... 8-}

I used this line as decorations for my holiday tree. The G1 characters were bright and festive, the movie line with it's blander colors (except for Bumblebee, Ratchet and Cliffjumper) were not quite as effective.

I want BIG characters like the other hero lines! Unicron, gestalt teams, Metroplex, etc...

I really do not get these. I'm not sure who would like such a thing. When I first saw them, I thought they were kinda cool. Then I looked at them closely and their facial expressions all look mangled. They don't pose, transform, nothing. Soo, I passed and the more time goes by, the happier I am that I did.

Since they are cheap, I am guessing a lot of people grabbed them and are now in completionist mode which is the only way I see there being any demand for these.

Still, no skin off my back. I don't get thee, but ood news for those of ya who like these.

I'm still hoping for a transforming Dispensor. A RH version just won't cut it.

So why do we need multiple waves of the movie line??? I enjoyed these with the first G1s I bought. But they're just so useless-I'm even tired of the ones I own.

Dispensor would have made a great limited edition deluxe or voyager but the RH format is a waste.

So let me get this straight?

A number of you are clamouring for a full blown version of a cameo bot that Trasnforms in to a vending machine?

WTF?!

Robot heroes are a bit of fun, for my money they're for those of us who had G1 when we were kids and now want just a little something on our desks at home or at work to say 'yeah, I'm a TF fanboy'.

Bit of fun... chill out dudes.

Dude...

Do the Dew.

I like this line a lot, it's not just for kids but it's great for them too, obviously. I'll prob. get all these exc. for the Jazz/Megatron set, seems unnecessary.

These BB and Ironhide (and maybe SS) molds seem to capture a single moment in the movie, and they do it quite well IMO, nice idea.

I kinda like the idea of dispensor and how hasbro has basically acknowledged this little joke form the movie.but if they can't get the dew logo,they should just make up one and make the figure.

Dispensor is a funny name.

Nice one. :lol:

I'm predicting this softdrinks guy will get so popular that he has to appear in TF2!

Wow I don't like thease, but they are good news.

I mean wasn't there a new articel about a RH dispensore comming out, being folowed by a deluxe version and we all hoped that it was the Dewbot?
Guess this means that we are getting one!

What is going on with that Megatron? That is not good at all.

I may be one of those people who only want transformers that transform but I have to say one good thing about these guys...

This is the happiest group of Movie Decepticons I've ever seen. lol

I wouldn't call them completely useless, I set mine up with my 6inch Titaniums, and they go pretty well together. I also got the KIT Rumble and Frenzy, so with titanium LaserBeak, it looks like they're all being launched.

It's disturbingly cute, but still disturbing so I like it!

by **Mr. Buzz Killington** » Wed Jan 30, 2008 3:43 pm

Why do they make a non-transforming toy for the character everybody wants, or make a FAB of it like frenzy, but not make a transforming version? Transformers are called transformers because they TRANSFORM! Not to look like cartoon statues!
It would be the first figure I would buy if they came out with a deluxe or voyager class Dispensor.

by **Blasta-Blasta** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 8:16 am

why did they make this?
what a waste
the only one I will buy is the bumblebee vs starscream because I can use bumblebee's version to make a new character.

Can't help it Dispensor was awesome. Going to have to get Barricade too. Other than that my Husband will probably get the others, he's interesting like that.

Any chance for Xbox and the Steering Wheel-bot?

I have a perfect name for Xbox bot.... Gameboy! :lol:

And for the Steering-bot... Turner! :mrgreen:

I came back hoping to see this wave in a new light...

Not happening.

I can't believe so many people like these molds!!!!
Most of these look very sub-par to me.
I really dig Robot Heroes, but these lack the quality that I was used to with all of the others.
Obviously the styling changes their look slightly, but the proportions of these seem too far off to me.

I guess I'm waiting until the next wave of G1er's arrives.
