I just received the third SOC book (awesome by the way!). And I saw a page about this new robot. Do you guys know of a way to acquire this bad boy? I am becoming SPEC obsessed (I have all of them. Okay not all of the SPEC Eva's... But close). Thanks.

Do you mean Black Serena Ghost Vision version, or is that something else? (Prince of Darkness is the Nadesico movie that featured Black Serena.)

It is completely something else. It is a red figure. I have the Black Sarena. I have not opened it but I know that I will love it.

You mean this guy then? robogeki.sakura.ne.jp/1990/xs-limited.htmlGeeze, I wish I knew how we could get him. He was a limited Tamashii online only release and I don't know if you can even still order them. Maybe yahoo japan, but that's probably your only real course of action.

Here's another site. Dunno if you can get this one or not: gamu-toys.info/goukin/gouki/spec/spec07/spec07.htmlIt's the red "villain" mech from the Prince of Darkness movie. The one that the pilot probably wished had the same cockpit armor reinforcements as the Black Sarena, eheh. Are you blocked from photobucket?

You can't ... not unless you find someone flipping one on ebay or Yahoo Japan. It was a special order through the Tamashii website (Japanese sale only), and it's sold out there. tamashiiwebshouten.jp/SHOP/JH0003.htmlEDIT: Send you a PM, Mazfan

Original MSRP was 7,350 yen, but expect to pay double+ for it through an online auction site.

hell i dont mind when its a limited discontinued item, I think its worth it. BTW is this transformable its desing seems to lead me to that assumption.

It's got a kind of Votoms-style "down form" looking hover mode(?) I think? Even MORE limited were the little "minion" robots that accompanied it, those were mail-away only through Dengeki Hobby Magazine.

"I just saw a commercial on TV for something that I never knew existed but now desperately need!"
That was a line from a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon I had up on the fridge for the longest time... hilarious.

From what I've read and seen in pictures, plastic only.

Well no diecast isnt a deal breaker for me......however finding one isnt looking good now.
