I sort of skimmed through the entire series, but does anyone recall the Big Shooter actually disassembling like that and merging with Jeeg? They never do this in the anime, but you could do strange Big Shooter-Jeeg combination with the old Takara toy... this is probably just a nod to the vintage Big Shooter.

From the pic it almost looks like the big shooter will be sold with Jeeg & Panzer.
That's another chance for those who didn't pick up Jeeg this time (like me) around to pick it up...cool.

dont believe so, it looks like an add on set like they did with the gaogaigar. jeeg and panzaroid already came in the same box anyway.

Gold Jeeg never combined with Big Shooter's wings like that in the show, but Big Shooter did utilized the 'wings' magnet separation a couple times to get out of trouble.

the wings are not part of the big shooter when it launches initially, it picks them up on its way out of the base.

Does the vintage takara big shooter also able to keep Jeeg body parts inside it?

The Takara Jeeg only separared into 6 parts (8 if you count the fists separately): head, body, two arms, and two legs. The parts would never fit inside the old Big Shooter.

Alright. So if CM's Jeeg and Takara's are in the same size, are you saying that CM's Big Shooter will be bigger than Takara's?

Alright. So if CM's Jeeg and Takara's are in the same size, are you saying that CM's Big Shooter will be bigger than Takara's? That's for sure. Look at the photo I posted of the vintage Big Shooter attached on Jeeg's shoulders, than at the CM's photo with Jeeg combined with Big Shooter wings.

Very nice. It would be awesome to display Jeeg and Big Shooter side by side using flexi stand or something

I was on the fence before with Jeeg, but I think wwith the Big Shooter, it would be a great set to get. $$$ though...

wonder how much the big shooter will sell for.

I'm guessing it will be around usd 100 - 150 before shipping. Considering the price of CM's releases and the set itself will also contain some extra parts for Jeeg.

At 26 CM long the Big Shooter has a pretty decent size for scale with the CM's Jeeg. I know it is not going to be cheap, but I'm getting me one of these as soon as it is released!
