Haha! WRONG! I can't stand

Haha! WRONG! I can't stand that vintage abomination. No, I actually prefer the SOC. Just when you think you got it all figured out, right? ;)

Maybe by "homely thing" I'm referring to the SOC! Just when you got it all figured out...

Wow

I don't think anyone could get you "all figured out" Dave. It appears that they have broken your mold. I assume that's what you're shooting for.
No surprise here- mine has been on pre-order for several weeks already.

Not shooting for anything

Not shooting for anything but a laugh, my friend.. But now that I think about it, are there any vintage Dancouga vinyls? I don't recall ever seeing one, only the big store display.

The sculpting isn't very good on this one. It should look more like the Gigabrain Dancouga.

Not gonna lie, surprised they went to Dancouga for a revoltech, but I'm not complaining. :)

Great review. I wonder if

Great review. I wonder if Kaiyodo will accept Yamato's challenge and release a Nova version as well.

Why does this thing have such a machine robo revenge of Cronos feel to it?

Orange Chips

I think the objective of those plastic orange chips is to collect them as many as you can from their Revoltech line-up so you'll be eligible for some prize. Probably a discount offer for your next revoltech action figure.

I don't know if the eligibilty is only available for customers who have a dual-citizenship in Japan & some other known country.
