Ehi, looks like it's John Holmes' sized!!! And eh, ehi!!! This time they went the extra mile and even translated the info!!!! Now, if only they had done a properly sculpted and proportioned Mazinger Z, instead of the usual fat legged "Shin" kazoobaz, it may have been interesting. Even unmissable. Hope this new line sinks like a ton of lead even before they can think of releasing another one.

Okay, now the minuses: 1. SRC sculpt - Come on! Are there no sculptors working for Bandai anymore? How about a "Real" new chogokin Mazinger Z for its 40th anniversary! 2. Articulation - For what I can see in the pictures, it will most likely have GX-01R like articulation. I hope I'm wrong. 3. Removable Magnetic Armor - what to say... I hope it is strong enough not to come off while handling the figure. 4. Articulated Fingers - NOT! Again, what the hell is going on Bandai? The thing is 30cm tall! Pretty easy to give it full finger articulation!!!5. No Drill Missiles - was it really so hard to put a tiny hinged plate in the forearm? *sigh*6. No Jet Pilder - WTF!!! You SUCK! 7. No Koji in Pilder - WTF x 2!!! You really SUCK!!! 8. No Iron Cutters (coming soon) - I guess $460+ USD is not enough for Bandai to include those with the figure... 9. No Scrander - see #8. 10. No Rust Hurricane sound effect - again, see #8. That's all I have to complain about right now... but I'm sure more will follow as time goes by. ;D }D 5. remove number 10... there is rust hurricane sound effect

Glad to see it. Bandai needed to release a gokin item that rivaled Fewture and MAx Factory's recent releases. And boy, what a release this will be. This baby comes loaded. And with the inevitable iron cutter/scrander/etc add-on features that will follow...12" awesomeness. Now, about that price......

I think this is not another SOC or SRC figure. I think it is going to be a line of Mazinger Z related stuff, maybe enemies, pilots, bases, in celebration of the 40 years Mazinger has been making money for Bandai. At least that is what I hope it is. I hear you, bro, and I think/wish so too! I am crazy about these super robot mechanical stuff, and now we have a 30cm full mechanic skeleton figure for Mazinger Z! Wow, just wow!Great Mazinger and Grendizer...come on!

all the features are nice, but i dont like that for the huge price it doesnt come with the scrander, iron cutters and jet pileder from the start. also, how articulated is this figure? it seems to be almost like a statue that you can pose the arms. how about the legs at the hips, do they move? i may pass on this since it is a remake of the src mazinger mold for $500.
