I would like it if the paint was more like the Blue Metallic SOC Tetsujin 28

I'm glad I went ahead and got a metallic version from eBay. There's a little bit too much chrome for me on that newest version.

I'm thinking it won't be THAT shiny, it's on a light table with camera flashes going off but i think once it's on your shelf and under normal lights it'll be allright.

True. I'm starting to think this one particular Danguard Ace was meant just for me - I mean, the exact version I wanted (original colors), on sale, and then SOLD OUT right after I placed my order! It is an awesome figure. Zero complaints from me! }D

I was actually questioning my purchase of the metallic version when I saw the announcement for the Chrome version. I am glad now that I got the metallic, the chrome is way too shiny. I think it makes him look really cheesy. My sentiments exactly. When I saw the first promo shots of the HK Limited Chromed version, I liked what I saw and was debating whether I should sell my Metallic version... Well, after seeing these newest pics, no more debating! I like chrome as much as the next guy, but talk about overdoing it! A bot that's so blingy just looks ridiculous. All it's missing is some big diamond studs in its ears and a big gold chain around its neck. My Metallic version is staying put!

I actually like the chrome version, and will probably get that version. My second choice would be the metallic version. same thoughts ..since danguard ace was long awaited and they finally made a modern toy for it..I think this shiny version suits him in my collection and it will be saving it spot in the center ^_^

DAMN... I just ordered an original color version. How did they get more of these if they are sold out and not being reproduced?

Right now I see two Danguard As up there, both are priced a bit high, but not too bad, with shipping. If anyone wants to order the metallic one from HLJ and trade me for my regular one I will hold off on opening it.

Whoa! I have to say I didn't expect to see that level of shine. It's nice as a variation (next to say, the GX06M Getters) but I don't think it'll blend well with garden variety SOC. Gold

The metallic version is the popular one now, and the upcoming chrome following closely. Even Betatoys will get the Metallic and Chrome Danguard Ace figures...
