    Had to grab both these suits - they're just too good! Now I REALLY need some bodies. Anyone know where to score repro-Henshin bodies for cheap? I know where to get Obitsu bodies for $20, but want to get some Takara bodies too.

    The repro Takaras don't seem all that cheap these days, but like you I'd rather have those instead of obitsu bodies.

    the repro's are a bit crap too, the joints are really loose. Unless you have a stand you'll probably have to keep him sitting on his arse.

    I know the purists hate them but at least the obitsu's will stand up.

    Hey where can you get that kind of price on the obitsu bodies....

    And when the heck is Takara/Tomy going to give us more Henshin Cyborg? It isn't like they wouldn't sell...well at least to us they would...

    They may yet show up on YJA. I'll post links in the USUAL place if they do.

    The suits were definately a milky glow vinyl poured inside. Not the intense RADIOACTIVE sorta glow I expect from a Japanese toy, but still Quite fun none the less...

    I would have gone for the GOAT sacrifice, but that has already been done on our website,
    by a fellow named GORT.

    Mine just rolled in, HOLY CRAP! I thought I like the painted way more, I was wrong. Also, if you haven't gotten it in yet, sweet header card!

    I know what you mean, and kinda agree. Not to take anything away from the painted one (I might still like it more, can't decide), but right now my lone body is sporting the unpainted suit.

    I just got my painted phantom, and it looks great!!! I just have one question, does the Death Phantom suit always come with 2 right feet or did my set get screwed up?

    I think the boots are identical.
