They look absolutely fantastic. I'd buy these in a heartbeat if I wasn't fussed about money. Incredible looking range. Are you still buying these Phil?

Spent the afternoon building DA-13 Dartloader It has been a long time since I built a kit, probably 2009 when Zoids Marder and Sea Panther arrivedIn the box is a black & orange Dianaut, another Diaclone Powered Suit container, and another connector for the suit along with several spures of parts. Most of these go to make up the tank which splits into tank treaded boots, a gun and shoulder cannons for a powered suit. It's pushing a big Zoids Customisable Parts button for me. In a move that will please Burns no end there's also a set of adaptors for turning the various sizes of peg on Diaclone toys into different sizes, mostly 3mm to 4mm, and male/male female/female adaptors. Fun kit, but it doesn't really feel £10 worth of stuff, let alone what they're asking.

Big Powered is here!
Astonishing piece of kit!
Very scary moment folding the foot back out the trailer after I'd folded it in.
Going to study the instructions on how to release the head, forced first time Diabattles and it has never quite worked right since.

Oh, that looks like an absolutely fantastic piece of kit. Lots of value in the individual components, and the combined Super Robot looks like it is darned impressive.
(Love the missile launchers in the side torsos - a proper Itano Circus in there.)

My Diaclone Dianaut trooper set from Kapow should be delivered today Actually this box has been winding me up a bit. In the Big Powererd set there's three Dianauts: 1 x Blue 1 x Blue with Grey 1 x Grey with Blue However there's cockpit seats for NINE Dianauts. One of them is inside the Powered suit, which is easier to leave vacant so we'll call it eight to drive the vehicles. In the Dianaut set there's 5 Dianauts, effectively filling all five vacant seats. There's two bikes as well. 1 x Blue 2 x Blue with Grey 1 x Grey with Blue 1 x Grey That assortment is offending my ASD/OCD BIG time because over the Big Powered and Dianaut Trooper sets it gives us: 2 x Blue 3 x Blue with Grey 2 x Grey with Blue 1 x Grey Adding 5 Dianauts to three give us EIGHT, as in 2 lots of complete sets of four. But no! They've not given us enough Grey Dianauts and given us too many Blue with Grey Dianauts. Surely 1 x Blue 1 x Blue with Grey 1 x Grey with Blue 2 x Grey would have been a better assortment for the trooper set?

On Tuesday night we had a little accident with Big Powered.
I was applying the special magnetic stockers that the Dianauts use to stand on when I dropped two. Gone vanished. Unfortunately they were the two I wanted on the most, just in front of the head. Today I found one and astonishingly it still stuck!. So I used the frame for the sticker, cut another from the excess material round the sticker sheet, and applied it :-)
