[First Gen]

Some new images have surfaced on the web, courtesy of an auction on Yahoo! Japan of the second Lucky Draw figure to come from the Henkei Line.

Henkei Galvatron is shown here, in package, an extremely limited release, of the Lucky Draw family where figures are repainted in a special paint scheme then typically released as contest prizes for various magazine outlets. This figure was announced at the same time as Lucky Draw Henkei Convoy.





You can view the auction for this figure here.

It might fall apart even more! Does the gold plate make it heavier?

It's not real gold - so no, it's not heavier. I've heard that often the gold colored plastic is more brittle though....

I'm new to this 'lucky draw' thing.

Are these fig's packed in figure assortments but at an extremely high rarity or are these contest prizes? Both? Neither?

As for the Galv, I wouldn't open that because the mold is lousy [functionality wise] and the gold plastic is more brittle then the standard plastics that are used.

It's just a gold chrome paint that's added to these (just like the silver chrome that is added to figures such as weapons or the Henkei figures). This is 100% different than gold colored plastic.

Gold chrome paint can chip off just like silver chrome paint. I'm not a fan of either personally.

They should have done his gun barrel gold too...Looks like they missed a spot...

What is "Lucky Draw"?

[Megatron Wolf]

I like shiny things. Should be silver.
