“Wonder Twin Powers...Activate!”

Anyone else old enough to remember these teen superheroes in their purple costumes on TV in the late 70’s? Or am I the only dork here?

These twin Plum Crazy Purple DW-6900’s from 2009 remind me of them. Or a Dodge Challenger. Give it to me in a Hellcat!

I'll Play.

This is the GW5000 for the Japanese market.
And yes, totally worth the extra bread.
Bonus points for having GW in the name.

Cheers,

I agree. It has those upgrades to make the cost worth it. Very nice piece to have in any G Square collection.

If you like negative displays, the GW-5035A-1 and GW-5000HR-1JF are pretty sweet.
