Well, Daitarn 3 was never a serious series to begin with. It was goofy and over the top, so were its alternate modes. And we have to talk about silly alternate modes, some super robots from the late 80's did not make any sense at all. For example: - Baxinger was composed on motorcycles that were ridden in space. - Acrobunch's arms were two motorcycles that could never be in scale with the rest of the vehicles. As a kid I loved them, but at the same time I new that they made no sense. Yes Daitarn actually was a parody of Super Robot animes.BUT it has one of the strangest/coolest Villains ever...DON ZAUKER!

Baron is yours currently on the way to you from Amiami? At first I was looking forward to that renewal royal blue color, but after acquiring and watching the Daitarn 3 anime (thanks to you), I'm actually ok with the darker color because it's more on par with the anime and I wasn't able to get the first release. Had I not watched the anime, I would still want that lighter royal blue though.
I'll probably be the last on RJ to get SOC GX-65 as I ordered mine from BBTS.

I'm anxious to see the side by side color comparison because I was given a sealed gx-53 (now opened) as a gift a few months ago.

To be honest, I think it is a missed opportunity, this new Daitarn 3's arms and legs should have been white color. Then it would be closer to anime accurate.
