If you're starting your collection, I'd advise you to go for the normal V2 bronze boys. The golden versions are all limited, despite being shown on anime / manga, and they're more expensive than its normal counterparts. Specially Shiryu, that you'll have some hard time finding it, a friend of mine is selling it on eBay and asking US$ 480. It's a repinture per se, but it's a different cloth, and it does appear at both anime / manga. That's different when we compare them to OCE versions, that are alternative versions of a same cloth. I guess Poseidon set will be one of the most beautiful when completed: 7 Marines + 5 PoG bronze boys and Poseidon + 3 bronze boys wearing the golden cloths... It will be PERFECT! Normal bronze boys together with God Warriors and everyone's happy at the end.

I disagree on that. They'll probably be exact same item as its normal counterpart. The other 3 are exactly the same, so Shun would follow this premise.

Can't wait to have this figure! Despite being a repinture, it's not because the Bronze Saints use the Power of Gold versions while defeating the Poseidon's Marines. An expensive must have for completionists. I do honestly doubt that Bandai will release every ~ Gold Limited Edition ~ on both Japan and Hong Kong. I guess Seiya relaunch on Japan is because it's Seiya (remembering that only he had OCE V2 EX and even OCE V2 PoG EX versions launched). There is NOT a pattern in relaunching stuff (so far) and I wouldn't count on HK releasing Shun / Japan releasing Ikki + Shiryu just to keep a box art pattern. Personally I don't care about the box art, as long I get the item itself. Now waiting for Hyoga to finish this beautiful and expensive set.
