Totally Nostalgic

[Wisemon]

I've got Two Original Digivices (Tai's and Mimi's), Davis's and Yolie's D-3, a translucent blue D-3, Takato and Rika's D-Powers, and Takuya and JP's D-Tectors, as well as the D-Terminal. I have most Tamers Deluxe Digivolver figures (Terriermon, Guilmon, Renamon, and Impmon to mega forms) Most of the Armor Digivolvers, a ton of the Mini Figures, pretty much every set from season two to season three, and the movie sets, and few other things.

Funny thing about the red D-3 (Yolie's), after the toy first came to stores, they stopped packaging it in the boxes. A case of 16 had 5 blue, 5 green, 4 yellow, 2 black, and no red (or it might've been a case of 14 with 4 blue and 4 green). When the D-3 first came to stores, the shipments were half blue and half red, but after that, no red ones. I guess Yolie wasn't too popular among younger fans. Of course, they never made Kari's D-3. Nobody wanted pink. Thus far, I'm the only one here who can claim to own Ken's D-3. Also, I'd bet I'm the only one who has the special edition gold Warp Digivolving WarGreymon.

Well then what the heck else would they be made out of, nanomaterials? Chrome Digizodium? Because I somehow think that a plastic Digivice could never survive the rigors of being tossed around, flying, stolen, dropped from high heights, prodded, analyzed, stolen, crushed, etc... Some stronger material than the plastic used for the toys must have been used.

Have you ever taken a polymers course? Well, I have, and let me tell you, plastics can be quite strong. Yes, most toys are made from polyethylene, but that doesn't mean that they crumple like soda bottles. For an "enduring" Digivice, maybe they used polycarbonate, but even polyethylene can be pretty strong. Also, ever hear of Nylon and Kevlar? Those are plastics too, and some of the strongest manmade materials ever.
