man the figure can hardly stand by its self and now they adding more weight to it Hm? I have no problems posing and playing with the figure at all. Must have transformed it hundreds of times. honestly man like i said i dont own it but some of my friends feedback was not good about the figure with extra parts on its become like MP Vehicle Voltron i hope Bandai dont go crazy with the next SOC release prices , hopefully this figure is a one time thing

P-Bandai? Suck a f**king thingy Bandai. For almost 20,000 yen, that's not even a good deal. No broken magnum/protect shade effect parts? No proper Chogokin base? I wipe my ass on your online exclusive garbage.

The cost is in a word, insane. Is the Stealth Gao II made of solid die cast metal? Although if it is that will make the figure even more horribly unbalanced than we initially thought. As in the stand is there because the fully decked out GGG can't support itself.

I highly doubt Stealth Gao II has any diecast in it at all, and any weight problems should be countered if you're using Goldion Hammer. I think the stand is there simply to try and justify the cost. Once again, why isn't there a proper base, like the one Gunbuster has? If it had that I could maybe see the justification for the cost, but as it is this feels like another Goldymarg scenario. Except Goldymarg was at least a triple-changer and came with all the necessities to do Hammer Hell and Heaven.

That's all plastic. And that included free shipping (plus it works with three robots!) I can't see how doubling the scale, still in all plastic, results in an order of magnitude price increase. At the price they ask it would need lighting or special effects or Bluetooth controlled ducted fan engines that let it fly.

To be fair, nothing about the Goldy or Star Parts releases make sense.

I just scored the GX-68 for $206 shipped on eBay. I'm as outraged about the price as anyone but there's no way I won't get it. I'm too obssesive.
You guys are enablers.

BANDAI LOGIC: "Oh, no one is buying our outrageously overpriced/bad quality figures? guess no one wants any other character or item from the show ever again" END RESULT: Every prototype from every tamashii nations event in the past few years to never be released. (I'm still mad about D-arts Sol Badguy) sadly we have to enable or never get anything else from the series.

BBTS has it up for pre-order at $289 usd. Sheesh!

¥20,000 equals about $165 in today's rate. I seriously doubt the shipping would be anywhere close to $100.
Can anybody say if NY's shipping charges are reasonable?

Yeegads... that price.... The first thing that came to my mind is, what if Bandai decides to make a complete SOC Star GGG set with the hammer and in golden destroyer colors. Then, make it an event exclusive... Pow! Instant 1000+ USD SOC GGG set on the secondary market. I almost hope it never comes to pass... Gold
