    Yup! . . . I guess the Astro Zombies branding made it a necessity.

    Cool - the paint matches the Tiffany brain. Now I need 2 of them (one for me, one for the wife). Any ideas on timeframe for this?

    Available only when it's raining in Tokyo. In-store only from Astro-Z and Secret Base during June . . . no mail order!

    I love it. But I agree....wish it matched the other rainy days with no paint!

    As for the necessity to add paint because of the Astro-Zombies branding, I'd say that's doubtful. Just like the Skeletal branding on the Captains, without painting the rest of the figure, they could have branded AZ on these without painting the rest.

    Oh well. Still a must have!

    Sure they could've . . . but I'm guessing it's 'all down to how 'flexible' Astro-Z are/were about how low key they wanted it . . . it's their sculpt so it's down to them!

    It's all speculation though, Pushead might have thought it needed the colour to give it some 'pop'!

    I agree about it being a shame that it doesn't gel with the other RD's but it's still a killer little piece!

    I'd be pleased to put it with the other rainy days!!! Unpainted would be great, but hey, it's a mostly clear blue Skullwing...gotta love that!!

    It's gorgeous! But I think they shoulda stayed away from calling this a Rainy Day since it has paint.
    Obviously I won't be getting one, but I'm glad to see it with Gloves instead of Fingers - love the boxing gloves.

    Wow, I usually hate Rainy Day figures but that paint really makes it attractive.

    Well, to this day, we still have yet to see an unpainted transparent 'wing. Was looking forward to the RD version just for that fact.

    hehe....stolen from a thread in the Sales forum!
