    Exactly this, Robert. Super confusing at this point, but hey, sounds like it is at least good news for increasing accessibility. Glad to see this realised now, I hope it doesn't [but expect it will] feed more into the hype-flipping markets.

    Very much so, Steve! TE has had such a strange ebon flow of high prices and deep dips into affordability. I’m sure the retail pricing will be reasonable, though I’m admittedly willing to get *slightly* unreasonable for how long I’ve waited to see this figure realized!

    Is it the same metallic green as the last preorder? That’s kind of a bummer, but also good because I don’t have ¥35000 to spend on it. Looks like it’s sold out anyways. I’m hoping for a colorway I like better to land when I have the money for it. ::fingers crossed::

    I didn't do a side by side comparison but yeah it seems like it is the same. The initial paint up of the metallic blue grey was the best so far. Think that was just a test though. I liked this colorway enough that I jumped on it. The first release went quick, this one hung around for a bit. Hope everyone is getting one that wanted it. I like these stress free releases.

    Yeah no stress is nice. I'm hoping for a black + silver or dark blue soon. This one is too busy for me.

    That’d be fun. Kazumitsu has been on a more complex layering kick lately, so I wonder….

    Saw a new Parabola Ace today. Looks very close to the preorder paint. Hopefully this colour will be easy enough to find.

    Still love the big ass cat paw lookin’ hands on this one. And I can’t help but see a spider web in the satellite on its head. Couldn’t swing this one at pre - order and it still hurts. One day!

    My favorite Target Earth pieces that I own are the Blood Freak Turkey, Horror of Party Beach Monster and Golem that's based on the Maba Zombies Series 1 conjoined face monster. I'll get some pics and post them here shortly.

    Can anyone offer any info on this Target Earth GID Gameldon I picked up a while ago. I've struggled to find any info on its release. I know there was a GID release back in 2011 with paint by Sato-san, but I can't find any pictures of the collection.
    Any info appreciated, thanks.
