I have a copy and personally recommend it. Is it $280 good? Probably not, I am a huge Gundam fan and have the majority of the metal builds but even that price would stop me. If you can find it for $200 - 240 definitely get it. Anything above that would be at your discretion. I have read the manga and like the suit design. If you like the pirate motif this will be the best version you can get.
The suit is on the smaller size, like the F91, but is poses beautifully. There isn't anything impending movement other than the weapons when holstered. They changed the shoulder joint so it slides out and you can get the arms further across the chest. Like the F91 there is an extra joint in the forearm to help hold the weapons. The waist and legs work similar to previous metal builds. All of my joints have been tight and nothing is lose.
The hole on the back is for the core fighter to plug into. It is only there because it is part of the design. Unless you are displaying the core fighter by itself the hole is a mute point. Either the core fighter will be plugged in (the X thrusters are attached to the fighter) or you will have the cloak on it. FYI you can have the cloak on while the core fighter is plugged in. It just makes the cloak look like it is flowing in the wind.
The high point is the number of gimmicks and tampo printing. The gold tampos are really sharp and nicely done. It probably has the paint applications for the regular releases because of the shiny gold and matte colors they used. And it comes with a ton of option parts. Everything from the manga for this version of the suit is included. Plus the month opening gimmick works really well and does not get stuck.
The only slightly negative thing I can say is the cloak took me 30 - 45 min to get setup. Bandai wants you to attached the plastic pieces a very specific way. They attached very securely but if you have to remove them you risk damaging the fabric.
Hope that helps. There is a link to the manga if you are interested.
Thank you so much for the details @General Rasp much appreciated, payment of MB Eva is around the corner from AmiAmi for me and I think for this time I will sacrifice my PO of this Crossbone MB I think the cost is a bit much of what they are actually offering(still have some time to think about it), like I mention that huge hole in the back is a big No No for me, I know it can be covered with cross or the cape but for me is like Bandai decided to deliver this MB with that huge hole in the back cause of cost reduction hence reducing the material put into this build, not sure if other MB has this detail. The Aile strike cost me about the same and effing love it from every angle the quality and details are superb, but for the Crossbone is really really a hard option at that price tag.

Hi guys I'm on the fence about getting the MB Crossbone , but really not sure if go ahead an pay the PO(about $283 dlls), love the look of the front, but that huge hole in the back is were is making me think twice.
For those who have it , is it that good ?, like I don't know like the Aile Strike for example ?

It looks amazing from the front but that side profile has me worried. I’m such a sucker for things that combine and transform that I might overlook it. I hope Vehicle Voltron comes out after this
This is GX 87 and Vehicle Voltron is GX 88 if I remember correctly, so is not far away.

I really need to calm down about getting more Figures this year, I already have a bunch of expensive PO waiting to be paid in the near future, but then Bandai shows this:
Soul of Chogokin Getter Emperor 24840 Yen , 7 / 29 Release date
-
OMG! is happening!
Lion Voltron Re-issue and Car-Voltron( I always called these two like that )
-
DX VF 1J at AmiAmi if someone interested , Item A Box B
-
Finally arrived and effing love it!, believe it or not this is my first Roy Focker in my collection.
KitzConcept really if they keep improving this Valk, like the more stiffer joints and lock in position parts the figure would it be perfect, the plastic quality is great and heft is great as well, it doesn't feel cheap at all, very high quality in my opinion, the packaging went into to protect it is superb, some would say "is too much plastic to protect it" hehehe

This is what I was waiting for , for the other versions of the Mospeada and finally most probably will also jump into the Legioss figure as well, this one the quality and detail looks effing great.
And of course we can't miss how our wallet feels
-
Great pictures @Lolicon, really excited for this one, love this design cause it has so much in there and on top of that it transforms without loosing how cools it looks.
-
Suddenly I don't feel that bad for the PF price of the new VF-0D.

I'm surprised we got no news for Bandai Valks at Wonderfest.
Probably they are playing their cards more carefully, waits for the competition what are their offerings and then they choose what valk is next .

Are this like the Hi Metal R (size)?, parts forming?, are this good quality ?, really grabs my attention how cheap they are, I think I saw this figures from lots of years ago but never put too much attention to these ones.
Update:
Ok I just saw a video of it and I will pass, already have some expenses this month with the x2 buy of HMR VF 4g
