Composite image from Twitter that we can make out of the reveal so far (with Ground Dion's Command ship stayed intact afterall in the mid torso). This is pretty faithful to the vintage design, just modernized. All the main shapes like the glass panel chest, shoulders, and head remain very similar. Though the top half doesn't seem to add a lot of height to it, so Robot Base will definitely shorter than the newer Fort Max.  |

How am I supposed to display a two foot tall giant robot?
Tlbut this is very impressive looking. I hope they figured out the joint tolerances well.

Also, found this colored Japanese Twitter image on proportion tweaks. LOL on No.4, since some Japanese fans actually want a big chest/control room to be closer to the vintage one.  1. Original proportion 2. Small head 3. Small head and arms 4. Small head and arms, big chest I personally would prefer No.3.   |

Better colorization of the grey prototype, closer to what the real thing might look like.  |

A nice full body shot, as well as a good look on the face and eyes light-piping. Looks great!   |

Big shoutout to TogeAtama for his awesome inspiring base setup, and got his permission to play with one of his photos. Was trying to figure out the height of the GRB robot mode when placed in a base setup like his. Photoshopped a matching prototype photo with his, then got a bit carried away and did this piece. Not a very clean execution since the resolution of the images are quite different, but this will have to do for now. Hopefully I'll be able to build a cool base like this, by the time I get my hands on the Cloud Across.  |

Preorders going up June 5th (Japan time). Probably a full-on promo video and detail release a day or two prior. Stay tuned. |

New photos showing the main bridge (actually looks like a legit bridge). Looks like it has an elevator that connects straight down to the Ground Dion's escalator. Looking awesome! Though not a fan of the Dia-nauts color choices. Pretty random, and the white female Captain is using the old body unfortunately.   |

I don't own the vintage but always coveted it...this will be very nice to own...though, I think singularly, as a unit, this would top the scales as the most expensive toy I own...and no gokin. Both LOL and sigh.
