    If you look at the first post, there's a picture of the prototype that shows the Brainmaster

    Saber always had a pretty goofy looking head in the series. Aside from maybe a wider chin and less defined features (which could be due to the picture being of a prototype) and the sides of the helmet curling a tad bit more, it's not really all that different to the MP-24, either.

    Left is MP-24, right is IR-V01 grey proto.
    (Trying to find a decent picture of either is not as easy as it seems like it should be)

    see to me that grey proto looks better than the painted pic, so maybe its just the pics or the paint they used. idk in the pics his face just looks very bland and kind of small for the helmet to me

    I love me some Ismenios, but if their Deathsaurus is on this level, he might be ousted.

    I'm liking this fella more and more.

    Now to get my hands on a giant Prime Star Saber, so I can have a Star Saber swinging a Star Saber...

    It's good to see this guy with some excellent hi-res photos. In these photos the main SS headsculpt looks pretty sweet. The paint finish overall looks good and adds a nice pop to the figure. I do wish Saber had some ankle tilts and they designed his forearms to close the gap behind the hands. I'm glad Saber has universal hip joints, a welcome improvement over the original MP. The spaceship mode looks okay, but I'll be mostly displaying him in full combined mode.

    Wow!! This does look great and waiting on reviews too before I buy it though.

    I agree to those that mentioned about the forearms being smaller being a nice touch. And for me, Takara's didn't feel like a figure you wanted to pose either. Irontrans just has that look that begs to be in action poses.

    I've been seeing this guy show up in my feeds the past couple weeks and I'm starting to really imagine him standing in my display case next to SOC Godmars.

    Subbing for updates.
