[Verno]

Rhinox is a beautiful statue.. Hard Hero were delivering the best statues around this time.. unfortunaly it was towards the end of the lisence agreement and they didnt renew... i would of loved to see more beast wars particulary the waspinator that was planned to get released next...

Hard Hero are still my favorite series of statues!!

Here here!

What number is yours Kup?

The number is 103/200.

So there was only 200 ever made? What number is yours and Sharky's?

In regards to the box, it was ripped open but thankfully it tore on the edges in fairly straight lines so I can technically re-assemble it with some sticky tape with the damage only visible on the would be box 'edges'.

Transformers Animated Freeway Jazz arrived yesterday
United Darkside Optimus and Megatron arrived today

Both were panic purchases when the dollar started sliding below parity....

I have been wanting this for a long time but shipping costs made it prohibitive. Thankfully I found an auction with decent shipping and went for it:

Hard Hero Rhinox!
*snip*

Thankfully the figure was undamaged on the way. As always happens to me with anything Beast Wars I import, customs opened the box and made a mess of it. They ripped open the statue box but thankfully they did not damage the inner foam and therefore the statue.

That really is a stunning statue Kup and I should be ashamed that I don't own one but I'm also very glad that it made it to you without any damage in the process.

Welcome to the Club! It's a very exclusive club, I think it's you, me and Sharky!.

I'd very much like to add my name to that list in the not too distant future.

My replacement Unicron arrived yesterday and Kranix has a head! Yeeeeessssss!! Bit silly really, all I did was pluck Kranix out of the box, now I have to ship the whole massive box back. Good one Amazon!

Nice work with the Hard Hero Rhinox, I have one as well it's awesome. Really wish they would have put more out before they lost the rights.

Great to see you branching out and getting amongst G1 Hursti. CJ and Brawn are the only minibots I technically still don't own (I have a key chain as a placeholder and CUGGGAABAA... whatever, Brawn)

Kup Sounds like you got the "Artists Proof" Version of Rhinox.

which can range from anything depending on the company possibly 200 were pulled from the production run and inspected by the artist or the first 200 produced i do not think hard hero have explained what the AP means.. (usually a higher price)

the "Standard" Release saw 2500 units produced and mine is Numbered 907/2500
