I agree. Their premium should be the standard release. It reminds me of the time that will go down in infamy when Silver Swan replaced the formula of their premium Golden Swan soy sauce with the regular Silver Swan recipe. Their regular soy sauce was swill and I nver tasted their premium sauce ever again.

Would that be prowl? I noticed that some parts don't match watch, esp near the front.

Is everybody ok here?

Finally got Galvatron. The tank is nice. But the robot mode is not so nice.

Nevertheless, he's a must-have character.

Robinsons department store. I also see them in Toy Kingdom and toy sections of SM department stores.

Galvatron and the green Seeker, are the pair available recently.

Galvatron tank is nice. Same scale as Movie Deluxe Brawl. Put them side by side, and it looks like a showdown between a US tank and a Russian tank. (Due to the color)

But Galvy's robot mode is not so good. The arms and especially the legs, are like mixed chop up parts from junk shop sewn together to give a remote resemblance of actual limbs. And they're very flimsy too. It's not easy to make him stand up.

Although you can do a few nice poses. But once you got it, don't ever move him again. Or he will crumble down like pick-up sticks.

Didn't see Blaster. But i'm not hoping of seeing him. I'm actually not even interested in seeing this version of Blaster.

That's kinda steep. But if the final toy quality is better than Binaltech, that should be acceptable.

When do you expect to get it?

I want to see the actual toy first. Before i buy.

I'm thinking... this is Japanese. Here, Japanese gets top pesos. So buying it as it comes out will be quite expensive.

I may wait till the madness die down, before i grab one myself.

Unless, he'd be out in Toy Kingdom. At least, i'd get it at regular SRP.

Anyway, congratulations for being one of the first Pinoys to own one. :)

I hope you can post a few pictures when he arrives at your home.

I haven't even pre-ordered yet! I'm also waiting for a sale so I could get him cheaper. :grin:
