Sorry TT, you're wrong. US Reissue Powermaster Prime is also metal fronted, and has chrome stacks. That's most likely what gemma has. The only easy way to tell the Japanese (or Japanese Reissue) from the US Reissue is by looking at the copyright mark (or the missiles, if you have them. They're longer for the US, because we like to sue people for our own stupidity.)

The Japanese giftset, and both reissues had missiles, yes. Technically, they belong to the "God Bomber" portion.
