I heard these were starting to trickle out and checked ebay since I know it will be months before my stores get the post-holiday restock. I got 3 (Snake Eyes, Duke, and Roadblock) today in the mail and holy smokes are they awesome. I only had time to open one and started with Roadblock because I was curious how well his accessories worked.

Minuses, the figures only have head swivel and arm swivel joints, so not much in the way of articulation. The helmet didn’t quite fit and is hard to find when you drop it on the floor 3-4 times.

Pluses, everything else. This felt like opening a figure on Christmas day in the 80’s, but modernized. They come on a card back that really a plastic display with a rear soft hinged door to access everything. The back has the image off the ‘82 hard case The accessories are bagged behind the figure including a clear stand.

The tripod fit on the gun which fit in the figures hand nicely. I couldn’t get the helmet to stay on even after heating but it does fit. But the highlight is the working backpack. Seriously, I love these.

aw I was hoping at least for them to be able to sit (on my future Masterpiece Hound)
and what a failed distribution to come out after Christmas

Oh these are sweet. How had I not heard anything about them before this?

I see them referred to as "about 1 inch tall" and was told "They are about 31.75 millimeters." . Is this accurate?


They are bigger than a Dianaut but smaller than a Mega Construx figure based upon the picture.

I got the 3 for $24 off ebay so $8 a piece which is roughly what the World’s Smallest runs for in stores.


Barely bigger than a Dianaut but big enough that they won’t work with Diaclones.

That makes World's Smallest Gung-Ho and his Armadillo sad:

styrene , ball jointed hips , internal armature, knee joints , swivel waist



....it will work.

We can rebuild him.


Now to get a Roadblock.

I wonder if they will tigten the paint on Roadblock's shirt at any point. That is a pretty deep V he has in back and it looks like all of them have camo on the chest.

Oh there are even smaller versions that come in a set with other toys.
No articulation at all.
Beware these are so small you may lose them!

Yeah, I picked up the Five Below packs and got Duke, He-Man, Bumblebee, and Starscream. I actually like the size of these smaller ones better, since they're closer to Dianaut scale, but they don't move at all, so they're kind of lame. I also can't get He-Man to hold his sword, which sucks. I'm thinking about trying to give Duke some articulation so I can throw him in my TF Legends/Dianaut setup.
