I can deal with the Revoltech non-transforming valks, they are fun. The Revoltech TF's though...yeah I don't know about those, but for the most part I am with you, I'm not a big fan of non-transforming toys of transforming mecha.

As for the Toynami 1/100's, I'd like them more if the polycaps didn't bust so easily and if they were made better. Fun to pose in battroid for sure. However I think for my tastes, the VF HI METAL by Bandai is for me.

I really wish I had taken better care of my diecast 6"-ish Dairugger XV that I got in England as a kid. Last I knew, all that was left was the head and it got sold at a yard sale for about 25 pence.

I actually had the 80's Dairugger XV. It was pretty cool. With all the hype World Events threw behind the Dairugger XV releases, I hope this is a sign that a Toynami MPC is coming out.

To avoid issues with Mattel, Toynami just needs to opt for a Dairugger XV license instead of a Vehicle Voltron one.
