The Japanese conventions like the Winter Wonderfest are known for their limited edition model kits and figurines, and this year there will be a "garage kit" of Minerva, that is said to be transformable, but requires construction and painting first.... and is likely to be very small and very expensive.
Pics mirrored here.
You forgot to add a few more "very"s before expensive ;)
I'd love one, but don't know of any sources that could get it.ebay?
I'd rather put that money towards an actual G1 Minerva and Goshoota to finish my Headmaster Jr's.Quote:

Doesn't sound like there is an official display from TakaraTomy, as the only news coming from it so far are displays by license-holders, like Prime-1 Studios (Optimus & Galvatron statues) and Kotobukiya (D-Style Starscream & Black Convoy).
your 'best' bet is yahoo japan via a proxy buyer, prepare to pay through the nose in the unlikely miraculous event it ever shows up. if you have no exprience with resin kits then i would say avoid it as it'll only end in heartbreakQuote:
