I'd like that. I'd like to some Brave homages generally though.

Every time I look at Brave toys I want to start collecting them. One day.

I have a few Brave toys in the collection - Build Tiger, Fighbird and a handful of others. I do have a great love of the general aesthetic of the stuff. They are cracking looking toys.

That Blog is in danger of reawakening my nagging sense that I don't have enough Brave toys yet....

How are those still on sale? Do Takara keep making them, or did they make 20 billion?

Most recent lot seem to have been from an "anniversary" re-release of some of the Brave stuff in Korea a few years back. (Brave Anniversaries are a bit like Super Sentai ones - you can gerrymander which date you want to measure from to give you the right round number closer to when you want it)

It does look very plausible, especially given the context of the crossover between the two lines in Japan around that time. If you exclude the cowboy hat, the head/face sculpt does look remarkably like the Super Megatron design. Does anyone have this toy/know of any size comparisons with the Cybertron Battlestars figures?
