    Whoo! Nice looking! Can't wait to get my hands on a pair! I'm actually going to keep them, and not paint over them!

    The Mographixx Rangeas is a great news! Now how to get one . . .

    I am not so sure about the Mid Size Rangeas - still think T9G missed a great opportunity to do something new with this character. But I want one nevertheless.

    I think the mid size will look good with my Fight Figures, and it means less expensive Rangeas, so it's win win for me.

    I hope so. The were released at the design fiesta on may 15 in Japan, and sold out there- I'm hoping more were/are being made for retail release. I'm chomping at the bit to get these guys.

    i really wanted a black one, but i just can't justify $90 on one of these guys.. i really didn't think these would be that expensive.. how much was retail on the regular sized ones? any chance any US shops will be getting these?

    You can see how big they they are in the comparison photos to the original Rangeas... :| but to answer your question, they're about 6 inches tall.

    I'm surprised to hear people say they thought these would be cheaper- I mean a newly released full sized rangeas usually seems to cost about $100 if you buying from a retail outlet in the states amd are in the states. And from the pictures its not too far off from the original size-wise; it isn't a mini or anything. And only V-kingz seems to have it, and they have to make some money on it and they're headquartered in Germany- but their flat rate shipping isn't deal if you ask me. I'm glad to be able to order a pair finally. Now I have to hunt down the green one! Anyone have an extra green Rangeas?

    You can always try yja and maybe you'll find them cheaper, I dunno.

    That's too bad. Rangeas is a great piece of Kaiju Nouveau (I'm coining that right now btw, because I don't like "Neo-Kaiju" ). If you can find one I suggest picking it up, mid sized or OG, you won't be disappointed.

    I'd be all over them, but I really don't like how the sculpt turned out.

    still trying to find one big one that I can be happy with (and actually afford).

    Its different for sure from the original (which I prefer ) but until I get these in hand (just waiting for them to arrive!) I can't say if I definitively like or dislike the midsized sculpt.

    I myself would like to encourage everyone to dislike both full size and midsize Rangeas's..
    This is purely for my selfish reasons of course :twisted:

    Been debating this with myself but decided I wont get it - though a clear Rangeas is a fine thing, I just do not like the mid size sculpt enough.

    I'd love to get the Silas release, but the terrible exchange rate stops me in my tracks. 8610 yen is over $100 right now! yikes!
