Looks awesome but I'll have to wait for his US release. I won't have the money in time for his Japanese release.
^ This. How did that SOB get him so damn early? Then again, if that was me, I'd be doing exactly the same thing...
Already bought and paid for.....would have been epic to be opening him tomorrow morning but alas...... Looks awesome
All i can see is a $170+ version of a character i was never that big on, and who turns into a box. ...but it would be the first Masterpiece mold i ever skipped on first release. When have Hasbro ever confirmed their version of a Masterpiece before it's released in Japan? Takara's premium is in part an impatience tax, and Hasbro would be undercutting them if they did that. It's almost a dead cert though, isn't it?
^This. I'm in two minds to wait for a (likely) Hasbro issue or simply go for the affordable G1 reissue.
