Pretty much. I can't say I would've bought it for sure but with retailer discounts, I would at least put a pre-order in and then see how things are going in that month financial-wise.

It's still an interesting piece though, I look forward to seeing some video reviews.

Poster Mechagodzilla is up for preorder in the US!

No middle man for you.

If you live in the US.

Hence me saying US. :P.

Otherwise, like me & you from the sounds of it ... It's gonna be tough.
Ordered mine through Nippon Yasan ... Which hurt like hell.

I PRAY it don't get hit by UK customs.

Oh, nevermind then, I'm just a bit salty over a release I don't even really want. Don't know why myself :lol

I can imagine. I do hope your pain was worth it and that you'll enjoy the figure once you get it though!

With NY chances aren't too bad since they undervalue the contents of a package, and if your customs people have a good day they might not want to see the actuall bill.

Yeah you should be fine. I've never once ended up with a customs fee from Nippon Yasan due to them undervaluing packages, and I've bought Masterpiece Transformers from them.

Not surprised, and even though it is another repaint set I like it. Always loved Battra's design in both forms. If I had a bit more money to spend I would probably get this.

And at least the line is still kicking... no matter how many repaints they pump out, it keeps me hoping that we'll see new molds being released eventually, starting with the classic Mechagodzilla.

Ughhh. Kinda want this as Battra is one of my favourite kaiju and I didn't pick up either version before.

Hopefully the legs on adult Battra aren't floppy and prone to falling out right out of the box like the first release. Yeah it's correctable with a bit of nail polish, but still annoying.

I like the idea of adding effect pieces for this and the Mothra two-pack (being redecos that barely differ from the originals would be kind of boring, so there's at least some incentive to bother with these), but it's annoying for first adopters who don't want to buy these all over again just for some extra parts. I wouldn't mind a separate effects set that throws these in and the spaceship from Poster Ghidorah.
