    Has anyone put the darker blue toy head (from Terraegis) on the lighter blue Sphinx Alternative? If so does it look OK or look terrible?

    just bought this after having skipped it initially because I thought Invisible was just as good. now I have both and Sphinx really is miles better. should've bought him earlier.

    Yes I am interested. Would you want to trade for the darker Terraegis face or sell your Artifex face?

    I haven't had any issues with mine, I think he's a great quality bot and a spot-on representation of the character.

    Also, I have a spare PS-01 (dark blue) battle-mask for Sphinx that came with Terraegis if anyone needs one.

    I may be interested. I'm supposed to get my Sphinx today from ebay. Pic has PS-01 but title has PS-01A, so who knows which one I'll get...

    There were some issues with the initial release (wheels collapsing if you put any pressure on the front of the toy). The 01A version fixed this. He is awesome.

    I think that the color is better on 01A too. The original 01 is hard to find anyways.

    Only issue that I have is that the universal joints in the hips could be tighter. Not a problem for posing once you get him into position, as he balances well, just a but floppy when you are holding him.

    I've always thought it made sense for a hedonistic aristocrat like him to have such puffy, jovial facial features.

    That's a pretty cool version. That was a con exclusive, iirc.

    Liger was a red recolor, I think. Can you post pics of that one?
