Is it worth the large asking price?

Random question, but can you do a pic of how the shoulders connect to the arms? I'm curious if it's the same port system used on Bouken/Deka/Gokai.

Very nice! The clear plastic really works nicely on these kits, especially Lupin Kaiser!

According to the Bandai Blog, Series 04 will be coming out July 23rd. This set will most likely contain the X Emperor.

Thanks!

The clear definitely looks cool! Though I can't help but feel like a lot of detail gets lost in all the clearness. lol.

I decided to get this dude for my birthday because Liveman is my favorite Sentai ever and OF COURSE I'd want an actually affordable version of the best Sentai robo ever. *casts glance at the $2000+ vintage Live Robos*

Don't think I did a terrible job assembling it, since it's my first Minipla but one of the stickers did tear when taking it off the sticker sheet with my tweezers but it's barely noticeable.

Looks good to me, Princess Viola!

Also nice job on Orion, Infinitevirtue! Really well done panel lining.

Looks perfect, and if you hadn't mentioned the tear, I wouldn't be studying the pic to find it, yet I still can't. So barely noticeable indeed. Looks pristine.

Great Orion Battler! Never noticed before how the thrusters behind the head almost make it look like an Olympic torch robo. Which the big club it wields helps give that effect too of "passing the star torch."

Small pictures for X emperor minipla.
Seems a bit better than the DX toy even if not the best design for a sentai robot.

The minipla usually are better than the DX versions in my experience.
