Just got invoiced from betatoys today. $250 with free shipping was a sweet deal. How did you get that low price? It's listed much higher at the site. It was a special promo if you preordered early. You had to pay a deposit of $50 bucks though. Just got my tracking number.

well its not as bad as it sounds. You can see it on the next cdx show coming soon. It was caught on video. I cant stop staring at it. I guess its the obssessive side of me. Anytime I inadvertently cause a stress mark on one of my toys I always want to kick myself in the behind because I feel I wasn't being careful enough. *sigh*

a "battle-damaged" Daioja! Sorry about the accident. It does suck knowing that the figure is no longer mint, even if the damage is not noticeable... }D

Chachi teh chest attachment on this guy is very odd,the shoulders I believe should move over about an 1/8 inch if teh chest is in correctly.And then make sure the armpits are in correctly.Its strange but this connection can easily go in a few different directions when assembling,I had to fiddle with these to see which is correct,Im sure you guys have noticed this. Although I havent had mine upside down,if you ghold him right side up tug on teh chest upward to see if its really locked,it shouldnt come apart when held upside down this way.BUT its possible the weight could make it give,as possibly in Chachis case.Im sorry Chach,as I know you are as anal as I am about your robots.I know youve probably reordered,as a glued head piece would never do for us. BTW was it all seen in slow motion??? ugghhh Im trying to source a replacement but if that doesnt work out iwll most definitely get another. Yes I am anal about it...obsessive even as most collectors are. Im sure someone out there doesnt mind a bend mark on their figure and would provide a good home for it. Luckily it didnt break off completely. I'm the same way. I'll list a flawed figure on eBay just to re-purchase one that makes me sleep well at night. lol

You're welcome. The only downside is that since they are a US seller, it takes about a month for them to receive their stock after the Asian release date. Anxiety kicks in a little bit while reading posts from members who are enjoying their figure since they ordered from retailers located in Asia.

Finally got to take my Daioja out of the box last night. It is a great SOC albeit light in the diecast department. Bandai did a great job with the transformation. To be honest without all the reviews from everyone I would have found it challenging. Thanks guys!
;D

Wonderful transformation!!!! Really like how it looks but the leg knees keep popping off. Do the non perfect change parts remedy this?

Go mine today (well, yesterday, but I wasn't at the store so it didn't get openned until this morning ) The add on parts seem to eliminate the knee "pop-offs". I was worried about it myself once I started fiddling with it. The extra foot pieces also seem to make him a lot more stable IMHO, before he was a bit back heavy. Overall, a bit plain in the looks department, but deceptively intricate. And for the $214 I paid I'm more than happy

I have heard story about one place in Hong Kong was selling it as low as 1000 HKD (about 130 USD)! However, most of the (HONG KONG) shops are selling it at roughly 1500 HKD at the moment, that is 190 US dollar. I think it is a pretty good price from Amiami now, I might pick one up from them... it is very tempting. ;P

And I thought getting it at $250 shipped was a steal.
