Yeah really it’s cute little thing and one my fave super robots since I was kid. Even intrigued me more than Voltron.

I just got one on eBay for $290. I hope I didn't over pay too much for a used one. LOL No anything under $300 is good. Heck I would have bought it. DX brought those prices down little or demand for GX-50 isn’t as much. Wasn’t it going for like $400-$500 couple years ago from what I remember.

Man I’m fighting Bandai mind control big time on this. Fact all my non-Chogokin collector friends will be hitting up SDCC and of course my dumb ass might cave in and ask them to buy me one. 😂

Do you guys think that Aphrodai-A will get the DC treatment some day? Maybe, but honestly the Aphrodai-A actually look or fit right in with DC look. They are very sleek. I actually have the girls Standing with my DC and they fit together very nicely. Only thing I would change if any is covering screw holes in the back.

It’s kind of funny we got taken on social media hype ride and nobody guessed it right even on SoC FB page. Some people on others group sites were like for sure it was GL. But according to translation it said New small line though? That hasn’t been revealed yet.

Don't underestmate the power of Bandai Magic....one sprinkle and youre done. Before you knew it, you already pressed "buy." Damn... Oh yeah I know, I’m aware of that power. I fight it. 😂When I was newbie collector I drank Bandai Koolaid. A veteran local collector caught me up to speed and set me straight. These items though I don’t collect for return value or profit don’t hold their value well. If you sell something it’s usually at loss with eBay fees. I’m real picky now on what I buy from Bandai. That false hype, that fear of missing out gotta have it. I don’t fall for that anymore. I buy most of my Bandai stuff on second hand sales for cheaper price now from catch and release buyers. 😂 Yeah I know Bandai interns or student workers are reading this all 30-40 lurkers on this forum.

Seriously more repaints? This is what kills other toy lines. Didn’t even notice difference until paint was mentioned. Just can’t get over those toothpick legs. Looks like less money to Bandai this year. 😂 I’ll use that money on some power tool that I’ll use once or twice a year instead.

With reissue date that far back I wonder or hope they fix some of QC issues. I thought that Sentinel didnt do reissues.

What a bust?! Been holding off commenting until there was confirmation. This is another pass. Bandai striking out again with me. I assume this more dynamically poseable or whatever. I have Zambot and that is one most rigid non articulated SoC ever. That thing hides in my collection. If it’s part of combing bigger version of Zambot than I’d be interested Bandai getting lazy again with there repaints, reissues or same characters done over. Not falling for it. I learned from past collecting other lines. Not falling for their hype of something either that sense of urgency. They will just reissue it or you get it cheaper after market. See so many catch and release buyers. Should be easily available.

But why Black and Green?? Looks like Hawaiian football team colors. If it was Black and Red I be more incline to buy it. It's Dragonzord colors Ah ok. I’m just use to seeing Black and Gold Legacy Megazord which looks really nice color combo. Does the Megazord actually change color Black and Green in the series? All footage I’ve seen it retains its multiple color scheme. Sorry, I only watched show sparingly back then was too busy chasing girls in college. Haha

Reminds of an insect with that color and those legs. I love that about it. So unique looking and will stand out on the shelf. I swore it was more of a reddish color in the movie. It actually looked good in the movie in its short lifespan. This color maybe it’s just lighting looks more Copper instead. Certain parts look more Crimson Red in first photo.

I’m going to try not think about not get my hopes up high. Remember that secret box last year and people speculate it was GL. Then turned out to be bust. 😀 Until I see photos then it just number.
