    I love this set! I haven't been into anything but MP's lately, but I had to order one of these sets. Takara did a wonderful job on this one!!

    i love this set so much. the colors just work so much better in combined mode, and i love the white hands and feet.

    ...but what's up with Sky Dive's blue tail fins?

    They were blue in the cartoon.

    I do wish that Superion's face ended up gray like in the promotional photos. The silver is so much worse.

    Can anyone who has this set tell me what the set included. Was there only an instruction booklet? No Bio Card or anything? I know some have coins. Did anyone who got theirs from BBTS get a coin?

    I got mine at BBTS, but got no coin. Five robots, four handfootguns, four small guns, one big gun / shield, and some instructions.

    Ok same here. Thank you for confirming.

    I'm guessing the coins are from the Asia versions as per usual and not the Japan versions.

    Man, I gotta admit...Superion, IMO, is THE best looking combiner from CW. And this version takes the cake (I'm a G1 fan)...it looks so good that I just might...MIGHT have to pick this up :)

    ^ I have no regrets about buying mine. This thing is a joy to behold in person. I think the strongest asset is just how much better the paint apps are on Silverbolt in robot and torso mode. I bought CW Defensor last week and I can't wait for UW Menasor to arrive. :)

    He looks much more unified in combined mode than the Hasbro version. I got the PE hands and feet, and he just looks incredible!

    That's one of the best things about Superion is the symmetry of the five jets. SO sleek and uniform, especially in the UW release.

    Defensor makes asymmetry look cool, but it's a different flavor.
