Interesting that they call it a diecast model, how much gokin is in this guy? Love the simplicity of the design.

Giant Gorg comes from the Anime, Giant Gorg. Came out in the early 80's and lasted 26 episodes.

I find it interesting that this piece used to be a limited garage kit sold back in 2011 at wonderfest for about 37,000 yen at the T-Rex booth and now it's going to be a fully assembled toy for almost the same cost. Furthermore, I read the HLJ description and it describes the diecast content as being in the skeleton, I was kind of hoping for more on the exterior, but will see. wildcats.pupui.jp/mt/archives/2011/02/2011.html

If this was a smaller figure, I would probably be all over it. Giant Gorg is a cool design and I would love to own one. This is going to cost more than DX Maz

If its in the skeleton then it'll be like Bandai's metal fix figuration line. OT anyone know that transforming racing car is in the link? Really liking the look of that also.

That's T-Rex's kit of Galvion, which ironically is being produced by Megahouse under their variable action hi-spec line.

Looks beautiful and love the simplicity.
All the pics are digital renderings and not actual samples - SO FAR.
Amiami is taking pre-orders. But at $370+ for this figure, I want to see more info.
Prototypes, Metal Content, Articulation, etc.
Definitely one to watch. Hope they knock it out of the park on articulation.

35,800 yen (amiami), that is far more than I would like to pay for it.
