Battle Force 5 - Battle Talking Reverb
I never quite managed to find all of the Battle Force 5 vehicles in their myriad of assorted sizes, given that I was late to the collecting party for that line. It's really just as well, since the last thing the basement needs is several more plastic bins full of well-intentioned but quickly ignored awesome toys. A number of the Mattel-made items did join the ranks of the Preserve, however, and are still slowly making their way onto the site - one such item being the Battle Talking Reverb vehicle!
It's a long and proud tradition to have a toy that broadcasts audio from the parent cartoon. While fun the first day or so, it tends to get a little old after a short while. These vehicles continue to hold my interest, though, and hopefully anyone who wanted these fun Battle Talkers was able to scare up a set of the three that were made. I found this one at KMart, on some sort of hidden clearance shelf or another. Click the image above for more shots of this here-and-gone-in-a-flash sonic vehicle! Muadib!

Wait - BATTLE TALKING? Are the figures the standard size here?

Nope - sorry I really should include something for scale!
The figures are super mini, and in fact don't even come out of the vehicles. They are just a head sticking up, which is in fact the trigger switch for the audio clip!

It doesn't surprise me at all that these things failed horribly. Too many scales, none of which had everything. I suppose we'll see next week if the new series they showed at SDCC last year will get more than a token release.

Yeah - it is extremely confusing trying to understand all the parts of this line, and once you do then trying to understand why they needed to do it that way. I think I'll retain a collection of the 1:24 scale vehicles, since they are pretty cool and a useful size.
