    seeing as this set could easily be compared to the protector armor, 100 seams fairly reasonable. i will probably wait till December or January to get him though. hopefully they made enough to last that long.

    When comparing with Protector in price, I gues it is reasonable...

    It sucks that this thing is going to be $100+ probably, but it's one of those "figures" that I don't want to miss out on.

    Two unknown pieces for me.

    Is the thing next to the head a Matrix?

    What is that piece next to the sword? I can only guess that it has to do with the electronics but better sure then to assume :)

    The piece next to the head with the red jewel is the hilt of one of his swords.

    The other piece (above to the right) next to the red blade is the other hilt and mounting clip for his second sword. The piece has a wire that runs to a disc battery mounted to his back. The sword lights up.

    Thanks, those were the only two I was unsure of.

    The package is a thing of beauty and I am one who doesn't even care about packaging.

    I'm looking forward to getting this so I finally have reason to open my G2 Prime.

    Total buy. But I hope it will be delayed until the end of December/beginning of January. Not enough funds. Traffic tix!

    Hopefully they won't have a limited supply. I want this but cannot afford it until after the New Year.
