That's a seriously expensive custom.

Go Nagai should get this. He probably holds a grudge against them Koreans for ripping many of his robots off

Personally I do not prefer to get too deep into the politics of the Korean ripoffs. You get into geopolitics, xenophobia, ridicilous national pride etc. and that sort of thing always turns up nasty in the end.

What a piece of junk... Stealing away once again. Might as well put some cherry bombs in it and blow it up. }D

Well, at least now we know the armor and parts can lend themselves to making reproduction parts for making other custom "DX" robot figures. I have a very good guess of what the next DX Mazinger-Z custom will look like, but I won't say what it is until person X displays it. As soon as he does I'll call him Theodore and you folks will remember I predicted it here and now. heheheheeee zozo-mag

I love that thing,but it needs new voice shouts and music to be complete.Im guessing it will as it has a grilled breast piece.Im sorry TMZ but I have a soft spot for these Korean SRs.Even though they are ripoffs they are exotic to me.Is he selling them?

Not me bro. I find these Korean rip-offs extremely crappy, and even offensive to the source materials. The Koreans seem to be very talented, so why not come up with their own Super Robot anyway...

I find them offensive only if someone tries to imply they're better than the originals - because that's just flat out bollocks. Besides that though, I do somewhat share (or at least understand) Baron's fascination with them. Although in my case it's not because of any kind of "cool" factor, but my own fascination with sh!tty things

I'm not against the act of taking inspiration from someone else's work, if you then come up with your own ideas to create something unique. Not original, but personal.
But ripping off Mazinger Z, in such a blatant way... And I'm not talking against Koreans specifically, I'd be disappointed with anyone if they did something like this. I mean, come on, not even Great Mazinger looks so similar to Mazinger Z...

I realize ofcourse its insulting and all that,I just like obscurity,and I like them because they look like their greater inspirations with an a odd twist think Bizarro to Superman...maybe not the best example considering they are both DC works and justified characters,but because of the odd differences.They are beautiful train wrecks in their own way..

I think it's pretty cool, sure it was a ripoff from established characters but it did end up being it's own creation. From a pure mechanical side I think the actual handy work was well done.
