The after market price of Voltes V will stand up strong no matter how many times that bandai issue XXth or R verison, PERIOD! After market price it is but are Robo fans buying it for the ginormous mark up price?

Too bad Daimos is not a HOT commodity like Voltes V. I remember GX 43 went out on sale for $100USD at HK Shops back 2008-09. It could probably be famous again if plans push thru with the live adaptation they are cooking at the moment. Teaser pictures were probably in the approval stage to get the production going?

I underestimated the power of SOC Voltes V. This is insane! Anyone still looking for this 50th Voltes V, you might want to try your luck at CD Japan. But mind the hefty price! Probably Bandai will re-release a few more. lol!

Probably will skip this one. I havent opened my GX31 40th Anniv and theres a new 50th edition coming? Dang Im getting old! Dont you know 50th is always more valuable than 40th? lol. I love it when Bandai bends us collectors over like this... next thing is shortening anniversary intervals to 5 years... 55th anniversary edition... Nyahahaha...Its just lame how Bandai is milking anniversary specials with the same old mold with a few gimmick added. Like others mentioned Its a re-color robot with the same mold but a bit of twist and presto, A 50th Anniversary $pecial for the fans!!! I can hold out till they release the 60th.....70th....80th.....90th.....100th....

I purchased the Japan exclusive Blitzway Voltron from HLJ. It came in stock and charged my PayPal. I have it in warehouse. When I go to ship it has FedEx for $411.00 or DHL for $388.00. I know I must be missing something because I’ve purchased from them before and never saw shipping that high. Anyone delt with them before had shipped that high? Or you could have consider getting the Metal Club Muscle Bear Voltron:

Is it worth to get the YF19 without fast packs? They are still in Pre Order mode at BBTS for $250. Tempting to snag one. I did, hoping Fast Pack and Booster will be some exclusive Add-ons later. But who knows... I thought of backtracking the old Full Set with everything, but that thing is quite old. Worry about plastic yellowing even if it is brand new unopened. One aspect I don't like about these DX valks, their bare plastic has limited shelf life, no matter how well you protect them, or leave them unopened in the box. They will still yellow after a number of years. Good thing the YF19 is already yellow. lol. How's is the build quality and the die cast content? Now im a bit worries as I havent opened my Red VF1S since I bought it 2 years ago. Probably will open it someday soon.

5.6" its like same scale with a Marvel Legends Figure. Too bad Its a bit tad small considering the looks of the figure is promising.

30.5K Yen with a smaller scale will be an easy pass. But I like the look of this Voltron.

I like how they stick up with the original art line of Shin Getter 1. But for me the CCS Shin Getter version is probably more menacing compared to this anime inspired Shin Getter.

Is the plastic different from the Blitzway? It looks like the plastic is cheaper... I dont have the original to compare with but upon handling the KO plastics are OK. Nothing feels cheap in this KO Voltron except for the issue in my yellow lion, Left leg is stuck and I cant seem to bend it and a black part fell off while removing it from Voltron robot mode (you can see it at the end of my video review) But overall this Muscle Bear Voltron feels like the real deal. Also worth mentioning that ShowZStore said that they will send me a leg replacement for the yellow lion.

Wonder if Blitzway change they're factory counter part in China? Because if not most probably this Shin Getter could get KO rendition like Voltron.
