Anyone picked up the new Combattler SOC released in December? I hear the only difference is the head? I'd love to hear a review of this from someone before I splash out on buying one.

New Combattler reissue? Never heard of it.... Only voltes new release in December.... Where u heard it? It's in the stores here in Singapore. It wasn't available until late in December. Has anyone picked it up? I'm curious if they made any other fixes to the design.

If it's a re-issue there will be no technical changes. At the most there might be a slight paint or plastic variation in colour shade compared to the first release.

True, Chen ! I got 3 Combattler-V, one is the black version, the second is a regular hk version, and the 3rd is a re-issue one I bought on 2008-10-21, from a japanese shop (maruzen). This last one got a difference : the plastic of the Battle Marine wings (those which fold out on the sides off the legs) is flexible ! The plastic use on my black and Hk version is a rigid one...
I just ordered a GX-13 Dancouga... I will compare with the one I got in 2003 and my recolour version too...

is there a way to tell of the version by just looking at the box?

The reissue would have the current/year it was reissue on the copyright line in the front of the box. That's one way to tell.

Gold did some comparisson of 1999, 2003 & 2006 version. Can't find the thread though but I remember that the 2003 is the worst ver. Specifically the Battle Crasher red plastic parts is "maroon" & the yellow plastic parts is "orange".
I've got the 2006 ver & it's close to the 1999 ver.
