I'd go with no, but others may feel differently, and I don't consider it a *bad* purchase by any means. Getting it to look right takes more effort than with a standard minipla kit. Mine arrived with what I believe is a defective tyranno tail. The ptera mecha pretty much needs some glue so it doesn't fall apart when handling the combined modes. The stickers for the sides of the helmet don't look great.

That aside, the finished product is good-looking (assuming you effectively cleaned up the sprue remnants) and moves well. The pre-painted face is very welcome. The plastic is good-quality. Unlike the SRC version, it can break into individual components, form tank mode, and combine with the upcoming Dragon Caesar (although the latter will set you back by even more money.) I don't think it's a bad purchase by any means

There's a Super Robot Chogokin version on Mandarake right now for 7,000 yen, which comes out to 62.50 before shipping.)
