40th anniversary Lio Convoy found!

[Shockwave 75]

Twitter/X user @TatoTahto has posted pics of the Takara 40th Anniversary Lio Convoy he purchased in a store in Australia.
So hopefully for those of us who have had it on pre-order since last year, this means we may have it in-hand soon.

I will be glad to finally have an alternative to Derp Lion.

Oof. I keep telling myself I'm fine with the derpy original, and it DOES look nice aside from the face and tiny arm blades (I quite like the yellow instead of gold mane), and idk if I can swing another purchase like this in the middle of everything going on now (plus the hassle of flipping this one).

But that does look very nice.

He looks good, but I'm happy with the Legacy version. Yeah, I do wish the face looked a little better. However, as much as Lio Convoy always had a more distinctively anime look to him, I still like having him fit with the more realistically designed beast modes of all the other new BW toys. That's the version I want to have on the shelf next to Kingdom Primal and AotP Big Convoy.
