Nice job

Very very complete review for just using selling photos.
I still have mine, do you regret selling it?

I do regret selling it, as I

I do regret selling it, as I do many of the pieces from that time. It reminds me how much more toy-like SOC was then than it is now.

With all the new versions

With all the new versions out, it's pretty unlikely this set will ever be reissued - which is really a shame because I don't particularly want to spend the aftermarket prices on this considering the aging rubber treads.

Wish somebody made repro rubber parts for these, then it'd be no issue at all!

Agree

I still regret selling boss borat….
I wish the Queen Cosmos would eventually come out.

SoC Dynamic Classics

This review reminded me of these re-issued SoC robots in the form of Dynamic Classics. I think it's about time I get one of these and Great Mazinger comes to mind.

I'm with you, I miss the late

I'm with you, I miss the late 90's and early 2000's in the collecting field. Everything felt fresh, new, and exciting. Could have been a sign of the times and the period in my life back then that I wish every day I could go back to re-live and make better choices in my life.

I have a review coming up at

I have a review coming up at some point of the 1999 Burn! Robocon Chogokin release and it really made me realize how much I loved that era of toys. A nice sweet spot between being actual toys and Collector pieces. The whole collecting environment has changed so much since then.
