That black getter is a thing of beauty. yes but the cloth cape is a thing of uglyness.Looks like it came from someones hamper. BTW why are the chests split? for posability?sorry the overall accuracy suffers there. And the big Vs on the legs of Getter Robo are distracting,as well as the ultra thick horns and large head,call me used to Aoshima but these parts do not look like the anime..The robots overall are very nice though as a whole.i cant help thinking the joints on the elbows will be a problem,that tiny pin thing worries me.Ill get them though LOL.

I can also point out few stuff myself but the overall finish on this piece is outstanding.
My, I just want it....I need it, I love it...haha

I rather have the cloth cape than a rubber/plastic one.
If the joints are anything like the Gurren Lagann then they will be good.

I'm not tooooo worried about how poor a likely handmade prototype cloth cape looks in this case - normally I would agree that cloth stuff looks pretty bad normally but there have certainly been instances where cloth can look decent (thinking about 1/6 figures as opposed to the average Hasbro Star Wars figure with a terrible cloth robe) and if there's one company I trust to do mixed media well it's Sentinel. We'll see, either way!

I hope Getter 1 doesn't keep going on this weight gain track or it could end up like this lol.

Lol anyways I might get the Black Getter, I need a black Getter in my collection so it's basically this or the Aoshima version. Just not sure which way to go? Their probably close to the same price.

Yeah I was leaning towards the Aoshima ones till it was revealed these will have a ton of metal too.

i doubt the diecast from sentinel can beat aoshima diecast as i have the black getter from aoshima and man this is one heavy beast.

Yeah I have quite a few of the Aoshima Gokins, the plus side is their loaded with metal and have that hefty feel, on the downside articulation is pretty limited. While I'm pretty sure the Riobot will be smaller and have less metal plus I have no idea how they handle diecast toys. It will have modern technology but mixing different medias in one figure is pretty tricky.

true the articulation is limited but i prefer the aoshima for me is the perfect black getter figure i can ever want.

I might get the Riobot just to try out the line and give it a chance. We'll see these don't come out till the end of the year.

I don't mind them in a cartoony sort of way. Almost humorous to me, or like a little kids toy.

Does anyone else think teh gold elbow joints are distracting? Silver would be better.Or white/black to match figure.

Had not really noticed it in truth Baron. So guess its not distracting to me.
