    Are there preorders for this anywhere yet i think it would look real slick with a coat of paint rather than the stickers (i dont see them being able to fill in all those detail effectiveley

    If the stickers on these are as good as the last ones, that won't be a problem.

    They're cheaply priced candy models. They aren't supposed to look super-detailed.

    I wonder if we'll see an upsized more detailed version of this combiner anytime in the future, aside from the obvious upsized KO that would be a no-brainer for the KO companies. I'd rather have a larger official HasTak GaiaCross than any PCC anyday.

    According to the site, the international shipping is the same as any private seller would reasonably have to charge, so you can't come down on them for terrible shipping rates when it's what the USPS charges everyone in the first place.

    It looks hopelessly bland to me...for now.

    I'm hoping to see someone repost these pics. (With labels this time round) :p

    Hmmm - keep my preorder or not? Does it look like the individual bots merge in pairs like the original Landcross?

    Every single bot has the split hips to spread them to create shoulders and let the head pop out, so it certainly looks confirmed that they do.

    Do you know when you're going to have these in stock yet? I don't have Gaiacross on order, but I did per-order the Starscream/Ginrai/Prime set from you. I had a lot of fun assembling the previous three I picked up (Ultra Magnus, Jetfire and Wing Saber, also from you).

    While it's nice that the proportions of the robot modes are better, it's a shame that they're all partsformers (even more than the original Landcross was).

    Then again, how big, or rather, small are these?

    Within the next 7-14 days it should be, along with the Kabaya Wave 3 (and much other stuff that has been held up by recent events in Japan). This should be about the same window for any importer.

    The typical Kabaya kit figures are around 4 inches tall, a little under scout size when you consider height and mass. From the pics, and the lower pricing, these are smaller. Looks about three inches tall each, and 6-7 inches combined. I don't think official measurements were given.
