CM's Corp = Ridiculous. I'll gladly wait for the super sale on this guy.

Well, seems they added diecast knees, articulated fingers (love that one!), Flip up helmet (hate that one!), articulated "thingy" in the helmet, and maybe a new Gaofar head sculpt?!?.
Not worth well over $300 (with mandatory EMS shipping). I'll wait until the super sale and then think about it...

Yeah, I never got that "flip up helmet" feature. I would've prefered a removable mouthpiece instead. Man, the Amiami close up pics are great! Looks like they made the Dividing Driver "collapsable", improved the Goldy Marg hand transformation and there're added wrist joints to the fist and the thumbs are multi jointed. Woot! The price is a bummer though. Gold

For comparison purposes, what were the prices for the original Brave 01 (i.e. GGG only) and 01x (i.e. Goldy Marg + Star GGG parts)?

Wow, while I'm not sure when the original star ggg release was, CM managed to pull off a 30% price hike within a few yrs! Yes there are added improvements and diecasts, but as looking forward to this set as I am (since I don't own the original), CM needs quite a bit of justification. 1031Prime Original B01: 13900 yen Original Goldymarg Set: 6000 yen Original Star GGG (GGG + Goldymarg): 20000 yen

That might be including tax. But yeah, expensive.

I believe the official price is 26,000 yen. It comes with Goldy Marg & Star GGG parts. Well that's not a bad price at all if it comes with all of that!

Not a bad price considering the combo, but shipping will be a killer!
