Goldymarg looks incredible and makes me happy I sold the SOC years ago. Plenty of articulation and cool gimmicks on this guy to boot. Now to patiently wait for that big payment request it come in for this set.

Seriously, this looks much better than expected. I imagine he is going to be a fairly complex transforming figure, I hope King Arts QC and engineering will be up to par for this guy. Been waiting for ages for a good transforming version of this guy.

It was rather surprising when this sold out on some stores, I expected it to shelf warm as very few large expensive figures sell out now. In addition, to good word of mouth, GSC generally makes items to order that's why they leave pre-orders open for so long to tally up those orders and to get a good idea of how many units need to go into production.

Looks incredible, and all of those ratchet joints they are putting in there. Hell yeah.

I'm really not sure why Bandai did not just make this thing a Premium Bandai exclusive and just make the damn thing to order. Leave the pre-order open for a while to allow people to save up since P Bandai is pay upfront, but that's gotta be better than this current crap they are pulling.

Hmmm do I even bother with the JP pre-orders or just sleep and go for the US? I might just wait for US stores.

I honestly wish the knees and hips were ratcheted. Actually, the ab-crunch could also have benefitted from some metal ratchets to maintain the weight of the scrander.

Only slight disappointment is the size. 27cm combined is not that big, for something that is supposed to be very big. I was expecting at least 30-35cm. But I am buying this for sure. Been waiting for a couple decades for this. Hmmm I'm going to have to agree with that one. This should have been 30 cm minimum.

My Reissue just shipped from D4 Toys! Nice! I hope to see they made good improvements to make it more sturdy even if minor.

After the disappointing metal robot spirits version, this has got to be the one man.

I'm happy with the regular edition at the usual retailers. Sharpest looking Linebarrel yet.

Sure would be cool if this was an actual combining GL figure like what Studio Halfeye did. I hope it's more than just a model kit.

Honestly, if you live in the US, it's better to just wait for the domestic pre-orders so you can enjoy your sleep.

Looks like R-1 is out overseas. Just watched a couple of YouTube reviews, and I gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed. At like $200, I expected it to be able to transform, but it basically gets ripped up into pieces and then rearranged into a plane. SRX is understandable cuz the powered parts are its arms and legs, but didn't expect the same treatment for R-1. This will be my first time getting a sentinel toy. Are the combiners/transforming robots from them always like this? I guess I'm spoiled by Bandai/Pose+/TT/Third Party. Man, it's like Pose+ price range, but nowhere near as good gimmick wise. SRX will likely be my first and last sentinel toy. Usually, the combiners from Sentinel or anything transformable doesn't require this much partsforming. I was also surprised how much of it needed to be pulled apart and rearranged like a lego set.

Okay. Okay. Magnets look strong too nothing flying off in the video so far. I can't afford this now, but it's cool CCS said they will do another run in the near future once they get factory space to do so.

I like what I see so far. Some of the poses here make the proportions look better.

Okay this will be a super neat little desk toy. And if they manage to keep the price in line with the rest of the line it could be a big hit for them.

Sentinel blog post for Ultimate Gravion: ameblo.jp/sen-ti-nel-info/entry-12689973397.htmlInteresting tidbits: -The way the shoulder armor attaches it uses a separate joint from Gran Kaiser's own shoulder joint and it looks like it moves more independently of Gran Kaiser. This is probably how the shoulders can now raise above the head -The Ultimate Gravion head comes with the pull out joint like Gran Sigma -Geo Mirage's wings besides moving up and down can now move forward and back to get out of the way of the arms -Sadly, this still seems like the same Gran Kaiser that came up with Sol Gravion, however, they are going to ensure the joints are tight enough to support all of the extra weight. Rats, would have been nice to get all those improvements carried over from Gran Sigma. :redface2: -They also made geo javelin bigger than Sol Gravion's so the proportions looked better. I'm glad those drill feet look nice and big because man he gonna be a little top heavy
