At the time, the GX-31V was the same price as the GX-31 so no loss really for the seller. c",)
Wow! Its already available at BBTS? It's only been less than a week since it was released in Japan!

whats strange is, I also have Gaogaigar GX68 on pre order as well. and eventhough GGG was released before Voltes V 40th, the Voltes arrived in stock first? my order status for Voltes says "pending" credit card processing. So I wont believe anything until I receive the confirmation that its been shipped.

I like it. I'd say go for it if you don't have the other two. I wasn't happy with the upgrades on the original GX-31V and for me was kind of a step back. eg. The Voltes bazooka not being built into the right hand, the fists no longer retracting into the bomber jet, the tank treads being too tall, the antenna on the Frigate being hard plastic. I got this because it's a 40th anniversary version plus I actually like the colors. OOPs. This Voltes can't retract his fists.

Well, if it turns out to be a mistake and it was actually for the GX-68, I'm pretty sure you'll still be happy with Gaogaigar til they send you Voltes. c",)

BUT the toy was also given some plug in fists when you push the fists inside..

Too late, I ordered 40th yr. version from local store Yesterday. I only watch youtube review of GX-30 but never watch GX-30V. I think they have the same forearm.

Damn lucky! I ordered the second they showed up on their site and still have not received any notification of GX-68 or Voltes being available. Keep us posted. Just received an email from BBTS that my Voltes V pre-order is now ready to ship!

Other than the "transparent blue" canopies on the GX-31 40th Anniversary vehicles, I much prefer how the original GX-31 looks. }D

FWIW folks, if you're still after it, the Voltes V has become available for preorder on Amazon.ca. So, FYI.
