    Just got mine from bbts. Thoughts:
    It is way lighter and thinner than I expected. After putting super Ginrai together, it becomes clear that this thing has to be light and thin. Those ankles on super Ginrai can't hold much more.

    This is the perfect classics Ginrai figure. If somebody scooped into my head and pulled out my vision of classics Ginrai, this is it.

    The standard Super had fits quite well into the Pc16 cab, even while still attached. I don't know why it's advertised as not fitting. Turn sideways, fine. Easy fit.

    Anyway, if you want an upgrade for Takara Ginrai, this toy is all upside with no compromise. Recommended.

    :eek:  Reeeeally??? Pics?

    If we don't have to pick up a whole other add-on set just to get this guy to transform without partsforming, that would be just swell.

    For that SD mode, did you just drop the Titans Return helmet over Ginrai's normal head?

    I'm perfectly on the fence about this figure. I'm into PMOP enough to spring for the Takara or box set version but I do want the Ultra Magnus version. If I like the UM version it will bug me not to have the prime version. If I buy the prime version the other version will loose priority because I already have that mold. (And repeat)

    Yep, but the hinge gets in the way a bit.

    You guys are going to make me buy this even though I told myself I was just going to get the Ultra Magnus version because I have no interest in Powermaster Prime or Ginrai.

    You bastards.

    I think pound for pound this might be the most entertaining thread on TFW right now.

    Use hairdryer to blow on it and it will disappear. Make sure don't blow on the painted part
