Ok guys, so just opened the box from Toy-arena and If you wanted a box that doesnt take any hits or damage, don't order from them I'm not really into boxes (as long as inside contents are fine) but I know a few collectors are - so just a warning/heads up - Toy-arena doesnt package their stuff really well |

Mine just arrived, will open when I get home from work How do you post pics from Imgur to the boards? Sorry noob mode Congrats, sorry your box was all banged up though. Upload to Imgur then choose to edit the image. I like locking the screen ratio box and choosing by 1000 as that seems to be a decent enough sized pic for the boards but not too large either. You can also choose to automatically resize when uploading. After that go to your pics and click the one you want to use on the board, a list of links should appear to the right of the image and you want to copy the one that says it's the "Direct Link". When posting on the board just click the little add pic button and paste your link into the pop-up box. |

I just want to show the box thats pretty banged up! lol go to your imgur account , select your image , then select edit on the bottom , then on the right change the resolution size to a smaller number by clicking on it and type another number, "Grayson" recommendation of 1000 is a good start. if you want it smaller just lower the number. , then click [apply] then [save] Attachment DeletedOr you can just resize everything in paint from windows, and then upload it to this board directly, each post can take 2 pics if it's under 1MB.  |

Triple Protect Shade   Wow, GGG is amazing! Fun to transform, the engineering, his huge and bulky and heavy as well!!!!! In terms of weight, Voltron is still the king. The shelf presence of this thing is awesome! Well done Bandai - Soul of chogokin is an expensive hobby but worth it! I'm not rushing on Goldy but will definitely get him once I've seen the other episodes, I'm just on 7 at the moment, haha! Thank you everyone for the feedback and recommending this figure! I hope you get your one soon grayson! |

I hope you get your one soon grayson! Thanks TJ. Looks awesome and I am glad you got your's as well. Mine will be here soon and I took a little time today to clear some space in the good old Detolf, gonna need to get another one(Detolf) very soon. Great collection you have brewing there! I will try and pick up GX-71 Voltron/GoLion soon. I am torn however as I never watched the classic Voltron cartoons but love the 2 seasons of the Netflix revival. It kinda makes me want to hold off on GX-71 as they are making a die cast version of the modern update which I am familiar with. |

Seeing you as a robot fan..I hightly recommend Gx71..Im sure other members will feel the same, he is starting to get expensive though. Gx71 is a brilliant figure! Hope your one shows up soon! |

I repeat, DO NOT hold off on buying GX-71 Voltron/Golion when you can get it at retail price. You will regret this , I can guarantee it, as long as you are someone that appreciate well built gokin toys. I am not that big of a Voltron/Golion fan, but even I can't deny this release is among the top bests in this line. Simple straight forward combination with very sturdy structure and ease of handle. As great as GGG, there is still a couple areas that is annoying at times (like the multi jointed shoulders you have to fiddle with). GX-71 has none of that. |

GX-71 will be one of those SOC releases that more likely will not devalue. Reviews alone speak for itself. Unless Bandai release a ton load of reissues.. which we are still uncertain. |

I do intend to pick it up in the next month, most likely domestically from either BBTS or Amazon. |
