Should TWISTOIDS come with removable legs?

**Captain Atkin** · April 25, 2012, 12:53am

Another possibility would be to use legs that come with a future Multi-Bot for these two figures. That would be a very good re-use of existing parts, and help offset some of the cost with producing Multi-Bot. With three sets of unique legs to choose from, I'm sure that Rotar and Twistoid could share some parts with Multi-Bot. The blue legs with treads would definitely work well for Twistoid, as they match his arms with their straight lines and robotic parts.

I voted yes, give them legs.

I loved the "Energy Zoids" growing up. And I really enjoyed the mini comic that explained their origin. Man-At-Arms used his Gyro Machine that makes his Robots to save the life of Rotar. So knowing what the "Energy Zoids" are, being spinning robots I say NO to legs. Give them stands with wind effects, or turn their attack stands from their vintage toys into a cool stand to display them on. Giving them legs takes away from what they are.

I think these guys are perfect for a two-pack. Give them "extra legs/torso" like King Hssss but display them in the packaging with their "spinning torsos"

You mean like this?

If so, then hells to the yeah they should!!

Boy they look horrible with legs. They were made from the "Gyro" Machine, and they were a new type of being/creation called Energy Zoids. If they have legs, they are just normal walking robots/cyborgs.

I don't think they look terrible with legs (at least Twistoid doesn't) but if they come with a cool way to keep them standing straight, I don't see why they would need legs. Honestly, the 4H could work something really neat out like differently shaped rotators (they don't have to actually be functional).

Yeah I believe if they take their original stands and attack stands and give them the "MOTUC Treatment" they will be fine.

If they ever get made, no legs. But they got to be packed together since both are only half a figure to begin with.

**MrRoboto** · February 23, 2013, 10:10am

With removable legs. The more options the better, these two are not exactly my favourites but with added legs, i could tolerate them a bit more.

**Jyrki** · February 23, 2013, 05:38pm

I voted yes. I don't see problem if Twistoid and Rotar has removable legs.

**hadley** · February 23, 2013, 05:51pm

Seems like this would make these guys very expensive.

**uaxuctum** · February 23, 2013, 08:25pm

Yes! Something in the vein of Emiliano's vision would be the way to go for me.

**King Tamusk** · February 25, 2013, 03:07am

As long as you would have the option to display them either way, with or without legs, I say go for it.

nope.......

**joseephus** · February 25, 2013, 08:25am

Would be cool if they released legs for Shadow Weaver and Orko too. That way they could fit in with the rest of the line of figures with legs.

**bloth** · February 26, 2013, 01:17pm

A set of legs could represent a "before the accident" figure!

Yes, exactly like this! They'd be oversized for sure, but I'll gladly pay $30 for each!

If they should look like that, I'll gladly buy them.

If these morts ever make it, they'd best have removable legs.

**Nemisythe** · May 1, 2013, 12:43pm

I can see in E's version that Twistoid's legs could possibly serve as reuse for some NA villains.....
