I know that it was just a trick of the lighting but...the canopy being a dark gray instead of silver is a huge negative.
I am still excited for mine but that feels like such a waste for it to not be more of a silvery-gray

On the original, wasn't the canopy black? The original model's canopy is black/dark gray, but in the anime, the canopy is silver.

Kind of interesting that an HMM would be absed more on the original toy than the anime version, but I dunno, not a big deal to me either way. I ordered two. I'm not sure why, but I did.

HMMs for the past while have been heavily focused on the battle story variants, with no anime-themed kits. Marking Plus are a good example. They include tons of additional decals with battle story references, and sometimes box arts based on specific scenes, which is cool~ Rev Raptor's box art features a scene where Arthur Borgmann was taking his Blade Liger out for a test run, and was ambushed by Rev Raptors, one of the first small-scale mass produced Zoids with a limited Organoid System. I appreciated the detail of it looking like the Rev Raptors are trying to cut him off above the cliffs, since the book featured them jumping off of the ledges to reach the Liger. They were later driven back by Storm Sworders and Gun Snipers, though. Could only afford to order one of these, but admittedly suffering from some Jurassic Park guilt of it not having a pack! Guess he'll be living with the Gilraptor & Raptor pack.

Im only now noticing that the Raven Raptor has a silver canopy
If you get both kits, you could swap them.

Here's my review, finally. The short version is, it's good.

Built the Raven Raptor!
The only downside? The lavender plastic scars very easily and unfortunately, the canopy is not silver. Its the same dark gray as the regular Rev Raptor. This may sound weird but I only got the Raven Raptor over the original because I thought the canopy was silver.
