With what transpired regarding the huge price drop of SOC franky,(ofcourse, obviously, theres not enough demand, hence the pricedrop)
i think Bandai, even just a little,, would now have second thoughts pulling a stunt like this one again,
and probably, in regards with SOC line, will focus on more wanted super robots, and not on experimental oddity like Franky.

I hope they don't blame the designer, because the designer did a good job. This is more a mistake in Bandai not understanding their consumer demographic. |

yup the technical design was quite good,, and yeah, it doesent really sort of, fit within the SOC line.. and perhaps its current sale price was its real market value. its not even the only option of getting a decent Franky figure...  |

However, I am going to show this to the fiancé and see if her reaction is "you're an idiot" or "wow that is so stupid you must have it". Been there, done that. Several times.  |

While i was boxing my toys for my big move, i got to handle just about every piece again, of all of 40 something robots i have, The General Frankie was the most pleasurable.
The most surprisingly awesome handcandy .......surely one of the oddest release but wow.!
Man, There was lot of love when making this thing. Just exudes quality, it puts most of SOCs to shame..Thats.just bizzare as the character itself
If you have one, handle it again and youll see. If you dont have one, please seriously consider getting one, especially if you see him in decent price.

I wish I had one. It looks as fantastic as it looks odd. I might get one in 2017 if I can find one for the right price.

I always love that piece and try to shed positive light when I can. It really is something special, even if it mainly tailored to One Piece fans.
Wow, after a quick search, looks like General Franky is fetching a pretty high price now. That's a surprise. Thought no one want this thing...
