    I'm for Ginari only if that means that they will do OVERLORD! The wait for him is killing me!

    He's so tiny!!!

    Despite being barely familiar with Star Saber, I'm really looking forward to this Masterpiece. I love the design aesthetic and the combination gimmick.

    You should look at the MP design book. Lots of similar looking sketches in it.

    I want somebody to convince me on this figure. I ordered from AE when they first put them up then cancelled. Then I ordered of HLJ and then cancelled. But still this figure has not gone out of my mind. Still wondering if I will regret my decision to skip it.

    Go back a few pages, but yeah, it's Ginrai. Keep in mind TT approaches these things from the Japanese pov. I think God Ginrai is pretty much a given in the by '16, '17 at the latest.

    He's a show accurate representation of one of the most badass TFs in all of G1. He's giant. Even a little taller than Ultra Magnus. More articulation than Ultra Magnus. A three in one, with the Brain of Courage, Saber, and Star Saber. A fuckin' sword and shield! Limitless display options. Decent amount of die cast. Most likely getting a Victory Leo MP and will be able to combine to form Victory Saber, who'll end up being the tallest MP yet. You might even consider him a herald to possible future Headmaster MPs and combiner MPs. He might end up being the most impressive figure in your collection until an MP combiner comes along.
