Posted September 17, 200618 yr Man, I loved Throwbots! I wish they could tell us more about them. I have Torch, Ski, Scuba, Granite and Flare. I used to have Blaster and Millenia, but I took them apart.
September 17, 200618 yr I like Bionicle, but the Throwbots (and Roboriders) sets held the greatest Bionicle enhancement pieces ever. I'm glad I got into Lego when I did... gave me an opportunity to act on this foresight... and snag dozens of these at bargain-bin clearance prices. X-D As "figures" though, I though Throwbots were pretty lame. One had a "weapon" that was just a technic panel. X D The legs were in wonky-lookin' positions. Their "combiner" were on par with the idiotic Bionicle ones, having no care for flow, color dispersion or anything apparently. There's a reason they went so drastically on discount5. They didn't look very good. Not enough to become hits anyway. But parts sources... they were GOLD.
September 18, 200618 yr Actually, a couple of their combiners were very good builds. The colors, though, sucked. ^^ I had Ski, Torch, Turbo, Scuba, Amazon, and Millenia. Good times. Blaster was probably the biggest and only Bionicle-sized Throwbot there was, and man... did I want him. *Checks E Bay for Throwbots*
September 24, 200618 yr I have a few of them gathering dust in my bedroom back home, but you know what I loved most about them? Their ABS cases *wub*
April 30, 20231 yr Just yesterday I received the last disks that I need to complete all the first way. YES! I completed, finally, the collection that I started with my brother 24 years ago ^^'. I have the eight first Slizers Fire-Ice-City-Sub-Judge-Jungle-Rock-Energy (in Europe, you know, were Slizers, not Throwbots) with the 6 disks all of them! Good bye! Edited July 11, 20231 yr by A.
