    I want one of those Baikanfus. But not at the current going price on ebay.

    Maybe if these are successful, Action Toys will do their own. Or, Bandai will do a reissue...

    Right! I hope he's still on track for early June. I'm curious which designer did him.

    You're forgetting that these aren't just for us. Revenge of Cronos was a pretty popular show in Japan.

    Very true. That said, considering these aren't yet being sold by Japanese etailers I'm curious if there are a lot of Japanese fans importing them from places like BBTS. It's a weird thought since it's usually everyone else importing from Japan.

    What I find interesting is that nearly all of the text on the boxes and the instructions is in English. The only Japanese text is the heading. Not common for a product intended for the Asian market. It makes we wonder if we are receiving a US/EU specific-release.

    Is he still selling them? I might me interested in one since I like all things Fitor/Blue Jet. I took a look but frankly his store has so much stuff it can be like finding a needle in a haystack.

    Ohhh, it's a KO of the Machine Robo Rescue version. I have the original of that and his legs are kind of wobbly as well. I'm very tempted by the other MRR KO's there.
