    Been trying to track this guy down with 0 success. Not a terrible let down as I think the colors on the US toy are better but it would still be cool to own.

    I got one off the boards last week or so. I prefer the Japanese colors over the domestic colors. They just work a little better, IMO.

    I thought so too until I started looking at it a little more yesterday. That red really contradicts the dark blue in robot mode. Ultimately that's what set me to purchase the US version.

    I can see how that could be a turnoff, but I like it. And I actually paid less for this than I could pay for a Torca (at the time).

    SB1 can you take some clean background pics of him in both modes?
    I have someone who kindly offered to help with pics, but I don't want to burden him too much. If you could help it'd be awesome :)

    Congrats on the haul!

    Some of the figures you mentioned are in the site gallery already I think. If we don't have box shots they'd be cool, though :)
