Here's the very first Aoshima Mazinkaiser: And here is the just recently re-issued Mazinkaiser: To me, they look the same, except for the thicker red paint application around the eyes. }D

Hey Guys,
I've just received mine from Amazon, can someone please confirm for me that the "shin Seiki Gokin" version is the OVA color version cause I think Amazon may have sent me the wrong one.
Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help. Amazon? Did you get it from Toysguardian? They are all Shin Seiki Gokin. "The Mazinkaiser OAV color is limited 500 pcs for Italy Toysguardian". }D

So is the OAV color version only limited to Italy? If so I'll stop complain and retract my replacement request from Amazon....

If it has a Toysguardian Limited sticker, it should be the OVA Color (grey limbs) one. The rest are just regular Aoshima releases - without stickers. Please take a picture and post it if you can. }D

I just looked it up on Amazon and only one seller does seem to be selling it using the limited sticker, even using pics showing the white arms. But if the one you got is the regular, "grey arms" then they got it wrong. Did you get it from this seller? www.amazon.com/Aoshima-MazinKaiser-Seiki-Action-Figure/dp/B00KZFVDRE/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1421852898&sr=8-6&keywords=mazinkaiserSo I guess you can either send it back and get a refund or keep it. Depends on how much you got it for. The srp for both versions is close to $180 USD though. The regular's prices is stable at $180, but the 500 LTE version's prices have jumped up to $250-$300 over on Ebay though. In my experience, Ebay prices are cheaper than most prices of secondary market Amazon sellers. Gold

Thanks Gold!
Yes, the pictures are very misleading and I basically went ahead with my purchase based on those silly images... given what I know now I have to decide on whether to keep it or not... for the rest of the folks on this thread... you can get one on HLJ right now for 130 minus shipping so probably can be had for about 150 to 160 maybe with shipping.

Compared to the other two versions, the paint application on the face of the Limited OVA is horrendous! Reminds me of the CM's Grendizers with paint QC issues... What the hell did they use to paint it? A Roller Brush???! }|

I never liked that all-black mouth grill. It's not black. It's gunmetal, like in the original OVAs. What I never liked was that Aoshima painted the head and limbs white! Should've been light grey. }D
