Yea... I didn't even know this until someone told me the other day but Bandai apparently made changes on the back of the renewal for the Black Wing attachment. I agree with BW being a more streamlined, stylish aesthetic in comparison but I feel like we're going to have to just live with an aesthetic mismatch.

If bandai does a re-engineering of the Dancouga gx-13 with this new blackwing then I might reconsider. The original GX-13 while awesome for its time is a bit dated from my perspective so not sure how this will look if the new blackwing looks leagues more modern when standing next to it.

I am really loving the Black Wing here as a standalone.
I may try the combination once and never do it again. Especially with Sentinel re-releasing their Black Wing and Dancouga as the Final Dancouga set.

Probably will get it. Dancouga is one of my favorite animes. I love gx13r (I know is a bit dated but the fact of having a triple transforming combiner is awesome). This will complete the set.

Dang.
For some reason a full on numbered release is being sold as a Bandai Premium exclusive.
At least that is what the sites that have this guy are telling me. Great. It would suck if I missed out on this due to not having the money at the said time.
Kinda hoping to eventually snag one just for the Black Wing alone.

Is it compatible with the old GX-13?

ok... i wasn't expecting it to be TWE. I will wait and try to get it later, since no site is shipping to my country and they wont let me pay in advance without . I really hope in a couple of month this one is still available.

I really hope in a couple of month this one is still available. Is this a first for a full on numbered release to be a Web or Premium Exclusive? Cause this is unheard of to me. I expected all numbered releases to be widely available.

I can't believe it costs more than GX-13R.

I can't believe it costs more than GX-13R. But it isn't? And that's factoring in that those stores are overcharging since it's PBandai.

Resellers are marking it up even higher than that. But I'm not comparing MSRP. GX-13R didn't sell super well in the US and was at or under $200 in many shops, including BBTS. I got my GX-13R for about $190. For me, Black Wing will cost more than the entire Dancouga.

Ughghghh BBTS's price and the tax I have to pay for them is what will make me avoid Black Wing. I would much rather deal with Nippon Yassan to be honest.
