Thanks seibertron.com! (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/takara-tomy-transformers-legends-lg42-godbomber-revealed/36844/)

It looks pretty impressive, if a tad on the pricey side.

The bot mode looks a tad derpy (mostly because of the head which is also a headmaster) but overall it makes a good official upgrade kit for super ginrai.

Judging from the leaks pmop will get his own set too, wonder how much retooling it'll have and if it'll just be a redeco or be stylized to match?

This was the sort of thing we all knew was coming, it was just a matter of when.

Then they dropped it all on us at once.
They are like "yes it's confirmed. Here's pricing, dates, colour photos of it on it's own, photo's of it combined with Ginrai, oh and X Y and Z retailers already have pre-orders"

They skipped the rumours stage, the leaked grey-model stage, and the unconfirmed combination stage.

I mean it's good. Just leaves me a bit stunned.

See that is how I prefer it!

The foot extensions will have to be retooled, but the rest probably won't need much work

I'm actually not sure I'll get Godbomber cause I'm using my LG Ginrai as Powermaster Optimus Prime and replacing my Henkei Convoy with him.

Yes, woke up to an email from my Japanese supplier this morning asking for payment on this. Really looking forward to getting this guy over the next couple of weeks :D

Just paid for God Bomber through HLJ. $67 after exchange rate, etc.:(

I'm just waiting for them to process mine as I picked up one of there extra allocations. $67 isn't too bad considering he's nearly leader size.

Yeah, but considering it was only 5600 Yen, just feels like I'm getting ripped off on the exchange rate.

Yeah the exchange rate is frustrating...i wish it would go back to .90 aud to the 100 yen it was a year or two ago.
Something interesting i discovered with the shipping prices at hlj is that it can work out cheaper sometimes if you split your orders into a couple of shipments.
For example i had MP artfire and god bomber ready to ship. Sending together 3350 or so yen though separately artfire 1180 yen and GB 1280. Saved a third roughly on shipping. This was for the slowest SAL btw

I'm the opposite I need a ginrai but they are just too pricey at the moment

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet but a cool feature GodBomber has is that he has CW ports, so he can do this
