I like the look of it, even if it's a little busy. The addition of a firing cannon on the arm is a definitely cool touch, hearkening back to older SOC and older toys who had firing fists.

I also like the tank mode, even if it's not "show" accurate. Then again, this toy isn't about being "show accurate", it's about being ... toy accurate ... to a different toy.

Wild, I know.

A few more pics can be found at the official Tamashii site.

There's a Japanese language review of the toy here:
Gear-Gear: RESPECT FOR VOLTES
... It compares the original release to the new one. Good to look at for comparison. No word as of yet on whether or not the ankles or swing joint in the hips have been modified or tightened.

I absolutely adore the Voltes V design. As soon as I can afford it, it's mine.

In my homeland Voltes V is a beloved mecha. I hope to one day see a subbed version. The toy looks awesome, look at all that brilliant engineering Bandai implemented!
