I think it's pretty unanimous that this is a awesome figure, no real complaints or QC issues and for the price is better then some toys that cost twice as much.

It's an awesome figure, it's been a while since I felt like this from opening up a toy from its box. Took me 2 tries to hunt him down in Greenhills trying to find a decent priced one. The heft is just right and the plastic parts feel really durable and high grade compared to the crap plastics Bandai uses on their Master Grade kits.

Yeah, one of my absolute favorite figures. The Aoshima one is a brick and does not have a lot of play-ability. Awesome looking figure. The SRC looks amazing and is fun to pose. Love it!!!

The only gripe I have with this figure is lack of effect parts and the getter tomahawk! I'm actually planning to make a getter tomahawk out of silver so the blades will come out nice and shiny but I'm afraid it might turn out heavy and make the arm joints loose. I was thinking of making the shaft from plastic to reduce the weight since the size of the axe blade is quite big.

@ ChenI don't know if those are TWE only, and those are hard to find here. I can't even find the weapons pack 1 for Mazinger Z anymore. Also buying an additional weapon set would ruin my budget. I just find it weird to not include the axe in the first place and a part of me wants to make SRC weapons out of metal

I was thinking of making the shaft from plastic to reduce the weight since the size of the axe blade is quite big. How about Aluminum? It's probably lighter weight than silver and metal. So, it shouldn't stress the Getter's arm joints by much. Would Titanium Steel work out just as good? You could cut it from old mountain-bike frames and reshape it. zozo-mag

Right now I don't even have time to make the axe as I'm knee deep in work.

Ive observed recently that some are disappointed to the point of them disposing thier SRC Shin Getter 1s,, i was thinking doin the same in favor of an Aoshima, but part of me thinks Bandai's SRC line would also release both Shin 2 and 3, which Aoshima failed to do.. but with unpredictable Bandai(with some abandoned/unreleased SRCs), we would never know.
