Good job looking it up, guys. I didn't think those stores would still carry the DX in stock. Lock in on your best deal and score it.
I am still humbled and grateful for mine the way it came to me on Christmas weekend. It's the centerpiece of my display, along with the VV and the SRC Mazinger and a couple model kits.

I guess I got lucky getting mine a couple weeks back for 444.00 for the maz shipped and around 70 bucks for scrander shipped. I got 30 bucks off for opening an amazon card when I got the scrander so thats why it was 70 bucks

The max is great I almost didn't buy based on a review that made it look bad. You know the arm thing ain't no thing if your using the correct arms. I didn't realize they had a different set up that is not just a gimmick. They never should have even included the gimmick set and just had the one set of arms that hinged and hidden the damn hinge. I keep these on.bthe only thing I don't like is the storing of all the pieces om still stuck having to store stuff on the box. It would have bee nice if everything fit in the hanger. The magnets on the front ate a bother too. Way too weak. I need super magnets and will one day move to corral castle when the build one of these perfect without a single flaw. Happiness could not exist if everything were perfect. He'll how would we know happiness then.

LOL.... I hear ya, the arms have to be aligned properly or else they could end up getting stripped in their notches. I wish I could come up with an alternative joint system for the arms.
I think the arms were hinged to show them off as the "Drill Missle" attack position other than just basic posture. But if the Drill Missile thing is the case, then a ring-set of Drill Missile nose cones should've been made as a "prop" that users can place onto the bicep to show that attack pose on the DX Maz.
The magnets really are weak, for the size of the parts they're connected to. I'm thinking of replacing them with strong Earth magnets; especially on the Breast Fire areas, since I tend to knock a chest plate off while handling the figure.

I always stop myself before I do anything with it and place the chest plates aside. Too many drops will ruin them and they ALWAYS drop when handling.

Yeah... if it weren't missing that piece I woulda bought that one a while back.
They had an opened but perfect one they were selling for like 380 a month or so ago that I wish I'd purchased.
Seems I'm never gonna get this without paying $450. Why or why didn't I jump when it was $300 on amazon!?!?

It seems that fans are grabbin the DX Maz up where ever it appears on sale. Surly, lock away $20 here-n-there every week or so, then before you know it you'll have the money to buy it. Remember that the shipping is expensive, because of the size and weight of the box. Good luck, bro!

somehow your pic really stands out from the rest..even the semi pro ones. the composition, the angle, the pose, makes the product look really nice. a beautiful shot.
better resolution and background would of made this shot even better though.

Hey, congratz Silverdonz! Awesome pic there, too! Man, I wanna shoot pics of mine against some office buildings downtown. The DX Maz, along with my VV ma-01. I have my Blackberry Torch 9800 that has an 8mp camera built in, it takes awesome pics outside in broad daylight. Yes, the Scrander set is definitely a Must Have for the DX Maz, no question about it. Plus it also includes the Iron Cutters and the Jet Pilder, so the Maz is all complete. zozo-mag
