    Classes have moved from size to engineering, would you rather a poorly engineered toy that’s massive? Or a smaller sized toy which is engineered well to be accurate and posable. I’ll drop in a little more info since you seem like a pretty good guy, however the lack of information puts a pretty bad image on you. -older toys are larger as engineering wasn’t quite great then, hence why they just upscaled them a bit and called them a day, furthermore inflation has caused prices to go up, this includes labour to make the toys. With the designers already being given a set quota of figures to make for each line (E.g wave one legacy 4 deluxes, 2 cores, 3 voyagers, 2 leaders) need to be made with a shared budget. This goes for all toy lines and if you couldn’t tell by now, with such a small budget that the designers get for each figure they have to make compromises as seen with SSGE. With engineering slowly getting better it’s harder to actually incorporate it in the figures and make them larger. And besides people are going to complain “bee is too big, it’s not to scale!!!” If he was too big and had a lack of engineering As seen with a figure such as SSGE barricade. That’s all from me but you’ll find more information on TFW forums.

    Very nice review, thank you. I appreciate your attention to the car interior because that's among the most astonishing features of the line. In their alt modes they could easily pass for model cars... especially Binaltech with its die cast. In fact, with so many modern figures made to be highly posable and so much more focus on the robot modes, I like that Binaltech/Alternators look so incredible in their alt modes that they happily make for some good display balance. The magnets that control the front wheel steering is probably unnecessary but still very cool. I picked up a Binaltech Meister a couple days ago and I love it. The weight and size of it is so perfect. The attention to detail is incredible. The line as a whole is quite underrated so I hope more collectors catch on to it with time.
