    Not bad, but honestly, the rear part is too wide and large. Old ones looked much cooler. But still, not bad. Will likely get another set.

    Absolutely hideous... Compare those chunky static looking things to these creepy, AI looking beauties!

    Love them. It look like the daleth and the missile REM. Hope we will also see the zayin and lamed models.

    I already own 2 zaying and 2 Lamedh, these will complete my REM collection

    Hmm. As Nemo said, not bad, but they look too clunky and inelegant for an ALEPH design. I'll get another set of old Rebots when they'll get a discount ;) They might be annoying as hell to glue together, but the end result is far more pleasing.

    They look so much better! Soon I will have 6 of them.

    Wow, I love them! I think I‘ll get 4 for the start. Looks like magnetization of the weapon shouldn’t be too hard.

    I've mixed feelings about them, they are not as sleek as the old ones, a bit more bulky for light and unarmored remotes ... Since i already own 8 rebots (2 converted as lamedhs and 2 others as daleths), i'm not sure i'll buy them ... (and next time i'll buy minis i'll probably buy a box of them anyway :p)
    At least they will probably be easier to assemble than the old ones.

    I like them. I like the old ones too, but I think these just edge them out.

    Hmmm, Gorilla-bots vs. CA drones ver 3.0...
    (seriously paint these black and red and they look like they could be in OCF)

    I approve of the update actually, I like the new faces, the underslung weapons and the F1 DRS spoilers they're packing.

    I'm mixed, I really like the old ones, and these are so very different.

    Gonna wait until I have them in hand before I make final judgement (because i'm going to be getting them either way)

    Although part of the charm of the old ones was weapon position - similar to a scorpion's tail. I really like the Rudras with the Tachicoma chin mount - and these are in that same style, so they'll join in with the army.

    There does look to be sufficient space on the back to re-mount the chin-guns as tail guns, I wonder how easy it'll be to make scorpion-mechs out of them?

    I hope that we will geht new probots as well. The old ones realy need a backup.

    I was really looking forward to the resculpt of the Rebots after we heard about it in Gencon. The old sculpts spider/insect-like concept was awesome! Those new ones... I don't know. Not only they are too blocky but the weapon placement bugs me as well... I will reserve final judgment for when I put them together though... (cause I will buy them of course...)

    That was my first thought. Do I really need 6 rebots though?

    Really hart to tell. With the cyber dancer possibly having neat interactions with HMG bots, i could see me fielding 5 (2 flashbots, 2 HMGs, 1 FO). But maybe the new REM would kinda take the list space away from the old one. And worst case we still have the old ones eh?

    I like them.

    Still a dream shattered: I always imagined the old ones to move like happy donkeys instead of a mechanical spider-crawl. I always hoped, they would animate them like that, in the obligatory PC-Game, which will - at some point - pop up. Well, no more happy donkey-Lamedhs.

    I don't dislike them per se, but the old ones weren't bad and we live ina reality where the trolleybots still exist.
