i think the figure is the cake and the optional parts are the cherry on the top not a must but its nice to have More of the dessert after the main course, however, in this case you had to order the dessert before the main course otherwise there won't be any dessert. TH'x

that my cousin strategy eating the dessert before the main course
joking aside for me personally i try to get those adds on parts for my figures i just love them to be a complete set, but Sentinel need to be smart about this one, since there is a high demand a reissue will be awesome unless if its an exclusive

And boom, yet another person who came to the conclusion that it looks so badassed without the upgrade set that it isn't the "must" that folks were making it out to be pre-release. I'm telling you guys AGAIN; this piece is incredible on its own. Well it is not like the Upgrade Parts Pack is laying somewhat here and there with the Add to Cart Button clickable, because we got what we are dealt Bro. To me if I can find it with a reasonable "JACKED UP" Price I would go for it, but the thing is that I couldn't even get a hold of the darn thing even on eBay. but to pass on the whole figure just because I couldn't get the Upgrade Parts, HELL NO. TH'x I'm talking about people who own both the set and upgrades preferring it displayed not utilizing them like Reed.

I think displaying with the upgrade parts is my favorite for this figure. If you like the design aesthetic of the character the extra parts really take it over the top, and the battle axe is just better than his hatchets. My display is a little crowded right now, though, and the wings take up a lot of real estate, so currently I am happy to display without the wings and tail. It's good to have options! Lol. It seemed very obvious to me when this figure was solicited that if you wanted the full kit you would need to bite the bullet and order the upgrade parts. If you collect "toys" like this you should become comfortable with the price points and know that you might only get one shot at paying retail for this stuff. Do you need the upgrade parts? No. The figure is fantastic as is. Will the upgrade parts make you a happier more handsome person with fresher breath? Yes. Attachments:

Hey, we will all have our own favorite mode for this getter. But do not, DO NOT pass up on this little master piece if you can’t get the upgrades. It is so impressive by itself. At least for me it is. I have him next to my Hot Toys figures because it’s that level of craft and quality. My only other Chogokin I have up there is my Gipsy Danger SOC. Hey dumb question, can I post pics from my desktop here? I can’t figure out how.

I just can't wait until my upgrades get here to at least knock out the review. I haven't seen any HQ photography of the full set at all and it's irking me.

The option parts really get the best out of this already great figure. Congratulations to those who were lucky enough to get the full set

You just missed out on some of the most epic robot fights in anime history I think he simply meant in terms of not having an attachment to the point where he felt the need to shell out money for this item; particularly second-hand pricing.

The breakdown article and gallery for the Sentinel Riobot Getter Devolution Getter 1 Upgrade Parts Set is up. kumastyledesigns.com/sentinel-gdg1-upgrade-review/ It's an accessories set so there's no need to really explain what they do but the article breaks down why they do what they do well. It's pretty cool to see one of Sentinel's best be taken to an even higher level. Here are some pics from the gallery portion:

Yo Guys, Get a load of this !!!! The Upgrade parts are available on Nippon Yasan, however, the catch is, it costs more than the figure itself. TH'x

Good old NY... I've bought many overpriced things (many myth cloth and others TWE) but this time they've gone very far...almost 34k yen for the set is way overpriced. Saw one used in mandarake for 22k yen but got sold out almost immediately

NY always goes with second hand pricing once their preorders/initial listings have sold out. This is in line with what Japanworld.it has had them listed at for approx. a month.
