My SOC Voltron arrives tomorrow. Tomorrow. He's my Grail piece. It will take every fiber of my self control to not leave work early tomorrow when I get that "delivered" notification.
Hell, with the SoC eventually getting here ($4 shipping club here too), I would be willing to part with my Playmates version. Got all weapons, etc.
So...is the upcoming GX-88 Vehicle Voltron still available to pre-order anywhere? Is this set going to be unobtainium after release like the Lion version was?
I think GameStop still has it up... Haven't checked for a while and I'm not sure how well they are since I haven't pre-ordered non games from them before. Some have said they can cancel orders if they oversell, but again no personal experience.
My shipment from BBTS showed up today. The figure truly does live up to all the hype. I see what you all mean about the smudges on the lions legs. I just did a quick initial check for damage and had to wipe all of them down thoroughly. I'm going to stop by the drug store on the way to work this afternoon and pick up a pair of cotton gloves before I go any further and combine them. A question for all of you previous GX-71 owners, were the leg sections on the original run made completely of die-cast? I see that each leg section has a combination of die-cast and vac metal plastic. I figured this was the case on the original run as well, just wanted to check.
