You're so lucky Protoform-S.
Diecast panels? No wonder it can hold the sidekick stand!

I was fooling myself to think I couldn't pick this guy up on release, and put an order in at betatoys. Hooray for R:J discounts! i'm really looking forward to adding another red space truck to my collection.
Beware my zohan kick photos. They WILL happen. BEWARE!

Well Daimos' eye's aren't what he see's through. If you remember Daimos mimicks the pilots movements so I'm sure Kazuya Ryūzaki is surrounded by monitors or whatever. The eye's like in most SR probably just have camera's and uses advance radar/sonar/scanners like Star Trek to put images up on monitors. I think you are right, Chen, I just watched the "Americanized" version of Daimos, while converting the VHS to DVD this weekend. Kazuya sits on top of his head, the cockpit, and monitors show him what Daimos, "see's".

There is something wrong with TRANZER MODE, seems like it's not proportional. and it seems plastic parts is around 30% or more. The robot mode is excellent.

for one, the top panels in the mid section look that they cave in in tranzer mode.

do watch the anime. The story is one of the best and really stands apart from other super robot animes. Daimos is also a fine and really cool robot by itself.

or better yet- wikipedia it to get a sense of the story and then watch some episodes...
i am not sure if daimos is the same like votes V like episodes that send in 7 r 8 kinda gives you a wrap up of compressed version of the whole 40 eps...

Hey everyone!!
Daimos!!! Can't wait for Daimos!
I've also ordered one from Betatoys! Hooray-----!!!
Because of this now I don't have any more dole for many, many other "things."
Wahhaha, so, now that the official release date for Daimos listed on Amazon jp is 9/27, does that mean that it will not be until mid-Oct will Betatoys be receiving the Daimoses and having them shipped out??
So then not until passes Oct 15th will I receive my Daimos? My Daimos!!?

I just realised that this is coming out at pretty much the same time as Yamato's Danguard Ace. My wallet finds this deeply unsettling.
