Thoughts
This toy carries all of the qualities of TR Sixshot, which I think is a really nice toy in its own right. At $115 RRP it's a tad expensive for a Leader Class toy. I got a slight preorder discount so I only paid $100 for mine. Considering that G1 Greatshot originally retailed for what would be roughly $105 in today's money, the asking price for this toy isn't too bad at all. And I'm sure it's much cheaper than whatever the ridiculously scalperrific aftermarket price for a G1 Greatshot would be. TakaraTOMY have also put more paint ops on this toy compared to TR Sixshot, although probably on par with LG Sixshot.
An excellent toy that I would highly recommend if this character or toy happens to interest you. Otherwise feel free to just stick with Sixshot as Greatshot doesn't really add anything that Sixshot doesn't already give you.
