nope, the apache warrior is dahm's body for some yokomos.

I think this one is Parma, but could be dahm's.
Doesn't it say what body it is on Tanaka's website? Just use a translator to check

I looked at some of his old posts and there's one in which he mentions a JG body.

No progress on what the body is in the first post yet? I'm really digging that body and it would be nice to know if that would fit on a non-Mid Optima.
