My comment was referring to energer not great mazinger tj. I thot this thread was energer but pics are of great mazinger? Did I miss something here lol? Did search and energer was the only one I could find that had a thread made for him. I did nog want to make separate threads for the other two, so was using this one as a 1969 general thread. And, my response to you did not reference which one you were referring to. You've said multiple times that you like "silver z" over whatever, and I simply stated that I'd hope you like it since you've mentioned whatever it is multiple times now.

Also another reason I only bought the silver mazinger vers is that I felt the sculpts were too similar to buy the others, especially at the high price point. I decided to buy either max, great maz or energer. I think they all look great but settled on the maz since that's the original look. If I had the money I would've got all 3 for sure

If I had the money I would've got all 3 for sure Ok, I think I get what you're saying now! Silver Z = Mazinger Z 1969 (original SILVER color)!!! Dude, this whole time, I did not at ALL know what you were talking about. I agree. The sculpts are pretty much the same in terms of main-body, but the heads, forearms, colors, and accessories were enough for me to justify the three. My favorite is going to have to be Energer, which is funny because he's the cheapest, most bland in terms of accessories and the least rare, but that headsculpt, and the gold accents are just so awesome in hand! I also like that the pileder ramp on his back looks like a robo-spinal cord and adds a lot to his super-skeletal look!

Energer the best? I didnt expect that. What spinal cord are u talking about? Are you referring to the ramp? Do you have a pic of this? Maybe if its unique enough I may have to pick up an energer then..hmmm..

I even googled Silver Z! :lol Yea, I'm talking about the ramp. It looks like a spinal cord when not bent down. Here's a pic from the review that shows it:

TJ, RALLY? You prefer Energer over The Great? Looking at your toy porn photos, I have a hard time understanding that.
BUT you have both and I have none.....so

I wonder why fewture chose not to do rocket punch with these maz gokins? I guess they wanted these to be display peices vs being playable?

@sad-P: Honestly, I don't blame you. If I had to choose between all three of these and all three of the Getter G set, I'd go Getter G. These are WAY too similar to put over those. And, they "DO" have the Rocket punch option. The forearms are actually held on by magnets and can detach if you want to simulate rocket punch! They just don't have a Spring gimmick. Personally - I'm glad they don't. Sometimes that stuff can get cheesy. greengetterguy - Yea man. Of the three, Energer is definitely my favorite with Great Mazinger JUST edging out Mazinger Z as my second. They're all rad, though. And LMAO @ Toy Porn.

Glad to see you also like gokins TJ, I follow your TF reviews and find them great (I specially love the Giant and Herc ones). Awesome pics as always!
Out of the Mazingers I like Energer the most (only one I have left after all). That black, white and gold just pop. Wish the DX Maz had that white.

I guess Energer look LOT better in person than The Great.... I mean, when I look at TJ's photos (awesome), the metalic blue and silver on The Great look so...."great." I just don't like all white Energer's face...It hides all the cool little surface details unlike silver faced Mazinger Z and Great Mazinger..... Since my wallet's on life support right now, maybe, I'm going to have to pick it up next year if Energer's still available...and see it for myself, in person.

I like these but I don't like that they used the same exact body for all of them, with only changing the heads and some other minor things. Look at Energer's pilot and you can see it should not be that big. Energer should have been a new mold, a lot smaller than the Mazinger and Gret mazinger. But Fewture just reused the same body mold as the other two, like Mattel does with their Barbie dolls.

I agree on the head thing. I think that the ultimate version would be the Energer body color scheme with the Maz head and the Great Maz lower arms.

EPIC! You managed to make the figure look just like it should, a lumbering giant coming at me with a huge sword ready to strike!
