This is the full Facebook post. I don't see how it's supposed to be about their Black Getter, but I might be missing something. img src="http://i.imgur.com/ip5lRBB.jpg" www.facebook.com/SentinelInternationalHadn't seen that. Well, at least, it seems that this limited run will not be for the Black Getter. Thanks!

That's Black Getter, you can tell from the knee pads and the covered up "mouth". I'm totally passing on these but they do look like they are nice figures but I think I've had enough of the chubby Getter renditions. I MUCH prefer the original Anime look which had a way more heroic look like GX-06.

I normally would but I think I'm over the chubby Getter look. I want the more muscular classic looking Getter design to come back.

I was never a fan of the old 1970 Getters. The fat cubby Getter is the way I remember it from Getter Robo Armageddon. And the Black Ryoma Getter is straight up from that series. @$100+ it is a little too rich for me.

It's all personal taste I just prefer the look of the classic one that showed up in 51 episodes and two crossover movies to chubs who showed up in around 10 and got either replaced or trashed.

I like both the chubby look and the slim look. It's not which is better but more like the joy of having both. I like the chubby look because sentinel did it so well! He doesn't look chubby fat he looks stocky and powerful

Maybe because I like the heft I guess. I LOVE my SOC Tetsujin classic, Boss Borot, Scopedogs, Dougrams and chunky Getters!!

Go Nagai had almost nothing to do with the Getter's except give Ishikawa the idea of having planes as alternate modes. It was Ishikawa that came up with the idea and wrote and drew the Mangas. It should actually be the Manga and TV versions, since from the beginning Getter 1 was kinda drawn "pill" shaped but was given more heroic proportions for the Anime. It was just the later OVA's took that "pill" shape that ishikawa drew and exaggerated them to chubs. As for the Animes, Go Nagai and Ken Ishikawa just wrote the Mangas for which the original 70's animation and later OVA's were based on they had almost nothing to do with Animes except have the shows based off their Mangas. In all honesty Tomoharu Katsumata, was the big honcho and head director for Mazinger Z, Great Mazinger, Grendizer, Getter Robo, Getter Robo G, Gaiking, Dangaurd and a ton more.
In a lot of ways Go Nagai and Ken Ishikawa are a lot like Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.
