NY preparation in progress email received as well. Now to see whether this ships before my AmiAmi order.

Speaking of, everything's listed as in stock (been waiting for MP-10 and the new Adventure 'bots) but I never received an invoice last night. Odd.

Gridon is just awesome and you should get him.

What throws me off with Verde is his helmet's design including the chameleon eyes. The other Ryuki riders keep the horizontal or vertical lines pretty consistently for the knight motif, and Verde (in my eyes) stands out a bit too much. Amusingly, I'd by his Biogreeza without hesitation if it were ever released, which would probably lead me to track down a Verde just to complete the pair. Until then though, I'm fine without.

As for Gridon, I haven't had a chance to watch much Gaim yet so I can't speak to his character (who appears a bit popular from casual observation); what I love about the Gaim figures is how colorful the suits are. Gridon's suit, compared to the others, didn't do it for me; maybe if different shades of brown & gold had been used.
