The point in comparing the 2 was to show the chasm that's been created over the last decade and a half of design. This set of toys is not in the same class as their beast themed anniversary predecessors. In no functional way are these toys as good as those. There's simply no arguing that.

You can enjoy what you enjoy and we can disagree about things and continue to exist without that mattering. But I'm sorry I can not possibly accept what you're saying. There's just no denying that 15 years ago a toy with similar scale and animal theme was created that was far more complex and creative than what we have today. You're entitled to your opinion, but this one is indefensible.

I wasn't looking for a defense and I stand by what I said. As pretty as the power animals were, most of their transformations were uninspired. The cubes are far more creative in their transformations, period.

I guess we have differing opinions on creativity. The cubes do far more in that they take the same shape and make multiple animals. It's not close in my opinion. I believe the only reason people say different is because they just don't like the 8 bit aesthetic. That's fine if you prefer the heavily detailed, more realistic style, but difference in style doesn't denote difference in quality or engineering. The build is quality, and the engineering is really smart.
