...how many would you have bought by now? It would have been awesome to see them in Toys R Us back in 2003/4 when I was younger and bought action figures by the cart. Instead of Gundam, my room would have been filled with little simplistic yet charming robos  . I probably would have around 30 by now, about 15 in the first year, slowly adding one or two every year when I see a deal. and that's not including other awesome toy-like merch that I probably would have gotten either, like chess sets, erasers, and keychains  . Oh, to think of what could have been. ...kinda painful... ...kinda depressing... |

same. if capcom decided to just dump a whole line of toys on us, then wishing for gotcha merchandise and constantly looking for it wouldn't be as special anymore. if all the borgs were in toy form, i wouldn't be so quick to buy myself a death borg omega toy than i would now, where any gotcha toy is priceless.

If there had been a Gotcha Force toyline, I would have bought fewer Bionicles in favor of Gotcha Force toys. I had >20 bionicles, so the 11-29 range is probably where I would be.

Man i love Bionicles... Ummm... I'd prolly buy as many GF toys as i had favorite borgs. So... Ruby, Beam Sam, Cyber Hero, Teleport ninja, Metal Hero, Demon Samurai (Alt), and Imperial Knight. So 7. Unless i'm forgetting borgs...

I'd have bought them all because i was a spoilt kid and a completionist. That's not a good combination, money-wise.
I am glad that i wasn't able to get the toys as a kid, though. Nowadays, i have a much greater appreciation for Command Girl/Barrier Girl/Battle Girl and all the Death Borgs, which i would never have bought as a young boy (the girls for obvious reasons, and Death Borgs because one-eyed toys weren't that appealing to me as a kid). Thankfully i'm older now, and now i can afford to be hunting down figures like Shadow Girl/Killer Girl.
And, of course, growing up means a better knowledge of CAD...
For the record, i voted 155-205, because i know where i live, the rare alts and variations would never have showed up.

Hmm...maybe it isn't such a good idea for Capcom to make a toyline. They might get ideas from Skylanders >_>.... I mean, it's a nice idea and all, toys linked to video games, but it's just waaaaay too expensive, especially for GF. That's the big reason I won't get into Skylanders  apparently some characters go for 150+ on ebay, and that's definitely not cool. On topic, I think it would have been cool for these to come out like Gatchapon (or Gachapon/Gashapon). Think those machines that take 50 cents and give you a bouncy ball or sticky hand, but instead a little collectable toy! That's the concept GF was based on (I mean, look at the name lol), so it would have been pretty fitting (and I wouldn't be suprised if they had a few in Japan...) |

I'd definitely buy Usagi and Sirius, but I'd probably end up getting every Commander and several other Borgs. |

I'd get them all if only to try and homebrew up a miniatures game Imagine getting engaged in tabletop battles with these guys Warhamer style. |

I would get the transformicons, the combinicons, G-Red/Neo and G-Black.
And Machine Head. Closest thing to an R-Fighter model I could afford.

You would buy 15~ figures that would cost $7 each at the least, and a Machine Head, but you can't afford a $40 R-Type model?

1. I would be buying the toys at different times, when I had the money.
2. I'd be getting more than just one figure/model that way.
3. WHERE IS THIS R-9 MODEL THAT IS ONLY $40!? O-O

Ah, dangit. I'm bad at model kits.  |

I made a thing... Long live Gotcha Force!!!
