I think you will enjoy him. He is very weighty.

One thing I should add, that has not been described yet. His title on the box is "Cybertron General".

Binaltech is Japan only. For the American version. well he was released a few years ago, so your best bet is Ebay or online retailers.

Don't think Hasbro has any plans for Re-releasing him in the US.

Maybe if they go off the deep end, they'd consider re-releasing him for the 25th Anniversary line though I really doubt that.
