    I am sorry if I misunderstood as it wasn't my intent and Motormaster is sentimental for me as well since it was 2 years between getting Him and Drag Strip (2006 for DS and 2008 for MM, can't remember at the moment on Breakdown) so I can get why you like him and I am cool with that. :)

    Cool catch! Any difference between the version 1? Do the lion's manes move out of place when the combined form is moved?

    Yah man this is like the definitive version of CM's Brave GGG :thumb . here are the improvements made to this fig:
    -New longer shoulder fins on the Gaigar (to connect to the Stealth Gao)
    -Ratchet jointed Ankles (very nice!)
    -Redesigned Linear Gao (no need for any parts removals).
    -Redesigned Gaogaigar head.
    -Improved shoulder and elbow joints
    -Redesigned "collapseable" Dividing and Gattling Drivers.

    -Lots of newly added diecast parts
    --Gaigar's shoulders
    --Gaigar's lower legs
    --Gaigar's knees
    --Gaogaigar's biceps (on the Linear Gao)
    --Gaogaigar's Feet (on the Drill Gao)
    --Diecast Pistons on the Dividing and Gattling Drivers

    I've got to say, the diecast parts now really balance the toy, making it alot more heavier & stable than the previous one. the lion manes...no longer MOVE! there's a peg to clip on the core robot Gaigar's body when fully combined. :wink:

    Thanks for the heads-up with the review! Looks like a massive improvement over version 1.0! Did you pick it up at CSC? When was it released? I can't believed I missed this one! Blah!
