    Got my pre-order with Kapow in the UK and they are saying they should have them ready to ship out by the end of September. So still a bit of a wait til I can get him in hand.

    Yeah
    I’ve got mine coming from ToyDojo. I’m guessing it’s gonna be end of September or early October before they get here.

    I am 100% down for referring to these figures as TripleK

    Yukio's review.



    Unfortunately, his figure was missing a rear skirt armour.

    Got mine today! Havent opened it yet but it comes in a very obvious box :lol  Also the packing sucked, nothing but a thin layer of bubble wrap. Previous D4 toy purchases came with more bubble wrap and corner protection, ended up with a few dings and dents on the box. Wont get a chance to mess with it until tomorrow but im super excited :D

    By just a tiny bit, by head height, it seems. Not really a significantly larger toy, just different proportions.

    Only because I extended Star Saber's feet a bit. They're pretty much the same height. Though as mentioned, Tarn has more mass.

    Two questions as you own Star Saber. First question, Is the head switch out on him loose or does it take some force? Second question, the blue clear plastic on the legs that cover the lights, are they meant to be glued in? on a review I watched, the blue part fell off when he showed leg articulation.
