Assorted Japanese retailers have started charging and delivering. My C-01 from AmiAmi (paid today) might be on the way as early as Monday And then it'll be around 2 weeks until it lands here in the Dead Heart. What a version to have as my first ever G1 Prime!

Oh, and it turns out that it does have a proper waist swivel after all, not just leg hinges that allow some movement other than just back and forward. Bizarre the way Takara seemingly went out of its way not to show that properly, particularly as it was, amongst all the heaping praise, the most prominent criticism of the thing...
