That looks cool!

Just hope the toy is not as complicated to transform otherwise the box might have to say 15years & up.

nojooc,

it's a pain in the **** to transform. It took me half an hour! I got as far as I could (not far) without opening the instructions, thank god there were pictograms because I can't read japanese.

I might get those in HK... can't find it in local hoppy shop and I am always outbid in eBay...

Do you reckon they have dummy bidders to bid on the item when it is too low price to sell? I bid on a toy RX-8 1:34 for A$5.00 and was outbid in the last second for $0.5!

I bought myself an RX-8 stress toy at the Sydney Motor Show, it's cheap and looks good on my desk. It's got a bit too much chassis flex though :p

That is very nice. I might consider it as it is very close to a black 8 :D
