I love the detail on this

I love the detail on this but yeah, I agree this kind of detail really belongs on a statue than a figure but it's still is nice even though its has balancing issues. oh well

Yea, definitely man. I think

Yea, definitely man. I think it's a pretty awesome figure for the $300 or so that importers are selling it at, but some of the US e-tailer prices like $500 are high IMO.

Why 500?

Well, I know retailers can sell them for a lot more but 500 is just too much IMHO. If I could, I'd get it for 300 but I don't have that much for it so...

YEa

I know Anime-Export had their preorders at the lowered price, but I lucked out and saw it randomly on Mandarake before retailers had even gotten them in at 300. It was seriously the most dumb of luck.

To say the least. Since

To say the least. Since Mandarake is second-hand for the most part, it's normally a good bit after people have gotten them in hand before they get things in stock.

I use/prefer vinyls for shooting just because they're so easy to clean.

If you don't mind sharing,

If you don't mind sharing, where do you get your vinyl backgrounds? I have been on the hunt for some new backgrounds and I would be interested to see what kind of vinyl backgrounds are available.

TJ, great to see you on board

TJ, great to see you on board with CDX! Always great to see your excellent photos. This figure looks real good in these colors, real sinister-like. While I would love to own this, I am saving for the 3 getters that come out later this year

Thanks

Hey, thanks CP! And yea, I hear ya. I'm back and forth on whether or not to get all three Getter Gs or just stop at dragon. Something about Liger is just throwing me the hell off.
