Also, looks like after this event, the Japanese toyshop listings are going to be changed to Convoy at last?
It's so sad to see how many Wildriders are hitting yhj auctions already  |

Past figures like the blue version of BT-15 Prowl which only had the color on the car parts changed resulting in a mismatched color scheme in bot mode had me worried that the same might apply here. Glad to see it's not the case.
The hands on this figure are also really well sculpted. A big improvement on the BT hand sculpts even at a smaller scale.
The only downside for me so far is that the engine block is attached to the back of Convoy's head. It's not so apparent on this version since it's all silver but I think it's going to stick out on the red version. | |

Hopefully that won't be an issue anymore. -VELOXIRAPTOR-

Figure looks so amazing in silver. The red one will have to be pretty slick to top this.
