Thanks to 2005 Boards user Type-R we can inform that Takara Tomy LG-EX God Ginrai Box set has been delayed for some more weeks.
This Takara Tomy Mall exclusive set which will include both Legends Super Ginrai and God Bomber plus Minerva and Cab Headmasters was expected for release on November 25, but customers who ordered it from Takara Tomy Mall got an e-mail informing of the delay. The set is now scheduled for December, 2.
Fans who pre-ordered this amazing set will have to wait for some more time. You can click on the bar to share your thoughts at the 2005 Boards.

Guys, you may go to the Toys discussion section for this release now. Thanks!

The international GodFireConvoy is a walking waiting fall down go BOOM! I previously owned one. When I transitioned to the JP version (not the Encore), it all changed. Very stable. Meaning, the mold by the time it was repressed back in 2002 already was degrading.
The latest Ginrai looks awesome (I have both chromed and unchromed). The ankles and the so called kibble free mode of Godbomber's head do leave a lot to be desired. The helmet keeps falling off and I still love the set.
How TT should have kept the elevator shoes stable is out of my league but the really should have found a way to fix it.
Also, like you, I went for it to complete the HmJrs. Missed opportunity for TT to have done the transtectors too.

Ankles on mine are… okay. Since I'm used to handling model kits, I'm not too bothered doing some weight distribution exercises. The God Ginrai combined mode doesn't feel any less unstable than, say, Car Robot's God Fire Convoy, so I don't think I'd want to put the toy in anything more than a "stand and look cool" pose anyway…
I do plan on keeping them…
I'm going to look into getting an LG Wheelie to get the remaining Headmaster Jr.
jya na!
Purple Heart
Do you plan on keeping Cab and Minerva?

Looks awesome but yup, the support(?)/weight attachment of the super parts kinda sucks. Don't even start with the ankles.

Just picked up this set (in what is probably one of the worst financial decisions in my life… lol) and… I can't really be fully excited with it.
I have no problems with Super Ginrai, even with the much maligned feet, of which doesn't bother me one bit.
But God Bomber, oh, God bomber! This thing gives me grief… It's an over-engineered, fragile mess of parts. His forearms fall out easily (despite Takara previously being able to design folding forearms that secure properly, aka God Magnus's forearms) and getting his parts to lock in properly for his "vehicle mode" is an exercise in frustration.
Despite the God Ginrai combination being an awesome sight to behold and an impressive feat of engineering, getting to and from that place is an exercise in harrowing nerves. Securing God Bombers torso onto Super Ginrai's back means having to deal with two tiny, as in very tiny, clips that have to be flexed to get them to fix themselves onto tabs on Super Ginrai's back. I think I've manged to stress those strips of plastic getting them off to return them to the box.
I dunno… I wanna love this set, but God Bomber REALLY brings it down. I wanted a toy, not a fragile mess of parts.
jya na!

I have this set, and honestly, don\'t regret anything with it. It does things really nicely
Fenrys
There’s a chance it’ll get koed as well since the mold has already gotten a knock off in the Magnus version
God Orion
It really is impossible to find right now. But well Worth its price if you can find one. I got scammed on one and got one for a bit more in Italy.
Silenticon
Yes, that perfect effect pc-16 (ginrai cab figure) is impossible to find because it is out of stock everywhere. According to TCP, it'll be available in June this year if it is true.
Fenrys
Perfect effect pc-15 is the god/power master ginrai/hi-q, leg fillers for the thighs and a new super Ginrai head
Perfect effect pc-16 is the ginrai cab figure, pc-17 and pc-20 are repaints of this and pc-17 has been koed. The figure also includes new supermodel chest harness
Pc-18 includes a sword for god bomber/god ginrai, wing extensions, two large guns (retools of the perfect effect bruticus guns), ankle stabilizers for god ginrai/arm fillers for god bomber
pokemonsdoom
other is a new sword, forearm filler for god bomber and god ginrai mode a part that goes onto each foot in combined mode for stability, new guns and a new wing tips

geekatron prime

Silenticon

Thanks!

Those look great! Good job!
I also wish HasTak had done the HMjrs. Maybe we’ll still get them in the future. We can sorta pretend PotP Inferno is Cab.
Thundershot
I say give all 6 Headmaster Jrs transectors.
I still find it baffling TT never did even the headmaster figure Wilder.. The other 5 got them..
Maybe they planned on making a full figure (from doublecross) and the partnership with Hasbro shot it down.
Silenticon
At the neighbor of HK.

I had to resort to customs with paint, reprolabels and a shapeways adapter for Cab.
