Holy &@*% !!! I wanted to replace my plastic Taekwon with this gokin version, but the price is just ridiculous. I know the manufacturer is not as big as Bandai, and the reseller markup and all this mean a higher price than a Soul of Chogokin, but... come one... this is too much. And yet I have a feeling I'll end up caving in and coughing up the dough... Sad...

Hmmm, no idea what this mecha is. Why does it look so much like Maz ?

Teknoman, did you buy it from Ebay? Also do you know how many pieces it's limited to?

That's where I got my plastic one. He was very reliable and insanely fast on the shipping. At least he was that one time I've dealt with him. But judging from his feedback, I'd say it wasn't an exception.

HA! I love how it comes with the little sidekick kid in the teapot armor also. Wonder if there's figs of the main character pilot, the professor/team manager guy, and the girl?

Yeah, has the teapot guy but not something more important, like the Control Ship that lands in its head!

Funny, I was just going to ask the same thing when I was browsing ebay.
It looks excellent and is such a cult hero.....I wonder if the release will be limited.
I'm going to try an offer of about 90USD and see if it sticks.

I love how they new it would be displayed next to SOC's and especially Mazinger Z so they made it much larger, the history between Korea and Japan is still much alive!

I just offered $90 as well. The seller has 95 pieces in stock. The lowest I saw one sold in the feedback section was at $120.
