    I just saw that the maskless head for the first Pexus was included with the SG version. I don't have the original one so anybody want to buy this one?

    EDIT: SOLD

    Thank you!

    This small piece was loose in the box when I opened it for the first time. Anyone know where it goes I haven't been able to find it. Same color as the legs and head so one of those. This is the SG version.

    I had the same issue with my SG one. It's a screw cover for the side of the foot. On mine it was the inner side of the foot, not the outer side.

    So, this has been sitting open in my tabs for weeks, but, now that I'm finally getting around to it, I'm in.

    I had been thinking I would just wait for an even more Scourge like remolding from Prominion, and when I first saw these comparisons I even thought that Prominion in Pexus colors would be nicer, but, no, I dig Prominion's more dynamic deco, tho I think I might prefer if the forearms were silver, which could lead to some of that dynamism receding so that might not be worthwhile.

    In any case... I'm excited to see this develop further! :thumb

    While paying off Eris KA, I noticed that TCP's listing for Optus Prominon is ten dollars cheaper than ShowZ's, so I placed a preorder with TCP.

    Edit: Actually it just seems that ShowZ's listing is ten bucks more than everybody else, including BBTS, ToyDojo, ToyArena (which does more with GunPla than TFs, I think) and even TFSource, which tends to overprice their offerings.

    So, I guess ShowZ just didn't get a good deal from MMC, or maybe weren't even able to buy wholesale... maybe.

    Watch these guys be the ones that make Optus Loco. That would be absolutely hilarious.

    It would be something, but I don't think hilarious is the word I'd use.

    Disgraceful is one.

    Vile is another.

    And unfortunately, still is. I'd pick that figure up in a heartbeat if it were real.

    I’m kinda behind on this thread, but I tried catching up and still need clarification. So all retailers will include the extra head of you preorder now, however PSX will have an additional unknown bonus plus the head?
