Infrared Astro Boy Hikari QUESTION

Postby funkystark » Fri Dec 19, 2014 3:00 pm

Ok, I know this is nit picky but is it just me or does the Gemini glam look different from what Popcultcha has showed. They are no where near different enough to be 2 different versions but it looks to me, that there may have been a change made between glams. Look at the hands, the glam we got today seems to have metallic painted hands, where the popcultcha one clearly has see thru glittery hands. Personally I'm hoping for the Popcultcha picture to be released. Does anyone else see that, or are my eyes not all that good anymore?

They do look different. It looks like the Popcultcha one has a glitter base while the Gemini is a solid metallic paint. I'm guessing they will end up being the same though.

The colours do look different but that could be due to the lighting. They look like they have different eyes. One looking up and the other looking to the side.

i guess all we can do now is what to see what's released.

Anyone want to volunteer to buy the $140 version from Popcultcha :) so we can compare

I thought it was up for $283? I'll be happy with my $45 version from Gemini.
