    I blame Takara, they are making the prices go up.

    Wondering if the price on TFSource is a mistake.... I mean sure, some stores are higher than others, but that's a pretty wide gap.

    Phrasing! :p 

    I think I like the toy deco better than the other, except for the little swirl on the chest. But I've always been partial to the red inner legs, and I think the face actually looks nicer here than in the toon deco.

    And yeah, $50 was closer to what I expected to pay than the nonsense over on TFSource. Hopefully that was just a typo.

    It's a little tough to say from this photo but I think the head may be toy accurate; it looks like that little black forehead crest is on there. And of course yellow eyes are toy accurate. I think I'll end up getting this deco, I prefer no swirl but I like the rest of it enough to live with it.

    I was thinking along very similar lines! Dude looks breathtaking from certain angles, but I'm worried that he'll look weird from others due to, for example, how thin his abdomen is. Reckon it will be more good than bad though.

    Preordered the EX version from showz ftw....

    I'm a Magic Square guy and will definately be picking up their megs, but that toy colored version will look sweet in gun mode.....

    Shhhh, don't say the g-word too loud or some might get triggered.....

    (ha-ha see what I did there)

    I've picked up more Magic Square than NewAge, but the toy decos have been a convenient excuse for inevitable double dipping on characters since Magic Square doesn't seem to have a lot interest with repaints(which makes sense, their plastic doesn't seem the best fit for repaints).
    I like the yellow eyes, hopefully if NewAge gets around to Mirage they do the same thing.

    Yup, not much of a butt/back of the waist either, as your pic demonstrates. :(  That thinness, frankly, is a bigger issue to me than the somewhat unsightly thighs/upper legs.

    Once again I'm left wishing/daydreaming NA and MST would join forces. Together--with their strengths combining to offset their respective weaknesses--they could rule the galaxy!
