Yeah, if I did not try to order it from Amazon Japan, and went through BBTS, then it's really expensive compared to Buster Prime and even the two pack for that matter.
While I may get Buster Prime next year, this repaint is damn nice. I'm impressed with how fast I got the item, probably faster than it should have been. Also, factor in the US Dollar is still not as strong, for if it had been, the price would have been much cheaper.
Hehe, I passed on Buster OP too. I pre-ordered it near the end of summer but then cancelled it a few weeks later. If I didn't already have the normal RotF Leader OP, I would have kept the pre-order.
The Amazon exclusive repaint's not a bad price considering the going rate for Buster OP and like you said, you're also buying the Blu-Ray DVD. I just don't feel like a better paint job and a gun or different colour scheme is worth an extra $50 or more. If I cared about exclusivity, it would be a different story!
