[glow=red,2,300]1.[/glow] Yes, they are worth it. I have 46 Stikfas & 6 Xevoz. [glow=red,2,300]2.[/glow] Buy both, Xevoz can be found at TRU & Targets. Stikfas can be found is TRU, or on eBay. BUT, there is a size difference between the 2, Stikfas are 3 inches & Xevoz are 6 inches tall. [glow=red,2,300]3.[/glow] It takes about 30 minutes to cut out the pieces, trim off the excess plastic bits, and put 'em together. Add a couple extra minutes to apply the STIKers on it. Go to www.stikfas.com & click on the products link to see what is avaible [glow=red,2,300]4.[/glow] I use a pair of small scissors to cut the pieces of the frame, finger nail clippers to remove the extra plastic bits, and a sharp pocket knife to trim off any extra plastic that could not be removed with the clippers. [glow=red,2,300]5.[/glow] Reviews Stikfas: I LOVE Stikfas, but I just put the figures together & customize them with the included STIKers. Some people use a Stikfas for some incredible customs. You should be able to find better Stikfas reviews here forums.delphiforums.com/n/main.asp?webtag=stikfas&nav=start&prettyurl=%2Fstikfas%2FXevoz: They are great but ask for some opinions here, goldengonzo.proboards29.com/index.cgi?board=general, they'll be more than happy to tell you what & why they like Xevoz. |

do they sell stikfas in any other stores? [i.e. kb toys]
my TRU doesn't sell them any more and i'd really like to avoid buying them online.
i have 7 xevoz and would like a stikfas, but i don't know where to buy them.
oh, and do you think classic or G2 is better?

Stikfas was also carried in some Music/ Video game stores like Babbages. Because of Stikfas' popularity & that they are no longer being produced/ distributed by Hasbro, they are impossible to find in a store in the States. A TRU near me still has the Omega Knight with Horse and 1 Firefighter. PM me if you want to know a great ebay seller of Stikfas. For more info visit www.Stikfas.com or www.SaiZon.comI currently do not have a G2 as of yet, but the classic/ G1 designs are great IMHO. |

i've been to stikfas.com and a bunch of other stikfas websites. i heard about the hasbro/stikfas split, but i guess i didn't realize that meant no more US stores supplies.
do you have a mechana segmented robot? do you think he's a better buy than an alpha?
thanks for the help

I have all the Stikfas released so far minus the Fencing, the Con exclusives, the Singapore Navy ones & the G2 Monk. The Mechana is awesome b/c of his jointed fingers, which means mine is currently flipping the bird.  But, the Alpha & I guess you mean the Military, he's just a figure. Truth be told, they're both great buys, but would you rather have a Robot or a Soldier ? IMHO the Omega Soldier is better than the Alpha Soldier. |

RIGHT NOW i'm more interested in robots, but that could fade at any time. i'm still undecided... thanks for the help, though

i wanted to order the mechana wednesday, but i had to wait until thursday to do it. unfortunately, on thursday he was on back order. so now i have to wait for him to show up at EE, then wait more for him to show up at ME!
he'll probably be worth the wait, but it's hard waiting anyway
i'm diggin the fact that he comes with a teddy bear... kinda weird, but awesome nonetheless

But I still don't know why he comes with a Teddy Bear. because its a bomb!!!! the teddy bear bomb! or at least mine is. mecha has the coolest gun too! also, if you buy a regular alpha male and not the g2 male, you can use the mecha's fingers to give the alpha g2 type posibility. Your_Number1_Fan |

The teddy bear is his arch enemy ;D
Seriously though stikfas are great. I have a ton of them and if you like customizing then stikfas are better than xevoz. Thats my opinion. I do have a few xevoz but I like stikfas better.
Peace,
NorthFire
