Love Fewture and I love this GaiKing because I feel that it's a blatant attempt to go a "Fewture" route in terms of design. Won't be the first GaiKing I've owner, but definitely the first I've gotten excited to preorder.

That head really creeps me out. It reminds me of that clown from the movie it with the white skull, blue and red crest, diabolic yellow eyes and that mask that feels like sharp teeth. I actually think I will pass this figure because having that face stare back at me from the cabinet really, really creeps me out. REALLY!

WOW looks like a Daiku Maryu will be on teh way for this as the chest head piece transforms and looks like it has plug in parts on teh back nice!!!!!Cant imagine what it will look like,very sinister and menacing I bet!!
In my opinion this BLOWS AWAY any Fewture design,sorry just does for me.I mean its much more aesthetically pleasing,way more dynamic,and it actually has character,something Fewture stuff REALLY lacks,it looks like its actually been designed with purpose and cohesion and not thrown together.
The best Fewture stuff is are the ones that closely resemble the source{Getter Robo G trio} and that is why,because the stuff furthest from he source is the worst{Grendizer}if Fewture veered away and actually made something NEW and unique with the old designs Id praise them,sorely they do not,new shapes like making feet like Air Jordans and adding jagged corners ,teeth and arm bracelets isnt exactly innovative,its just an easy way to make you think its a good or cool design at first glance because its different,but not necessarily good..
Making something new like Dinosaurs from getters is,and Super Robots into Knights is,like Sentinel is doing it may not be all that mind blowing,but at least its bringing something new to teh old characters,not just willy nilly addition of modern looking parts.
At least thsi piece resembles Gaiking AND something NEW,they made him a knight,a demonic knight and its FRESH,thats is the difference.
All Im asking is to think about what im saying before tons of Fewture Owners {note I didnt say fans because if someone owns something ,more times than not they automatically defend it,whether they really like it or not like its their girlfriend or nose or something LOL.}Just trying to open eyes to this toy,its definately cool.

wow....im impressed with the joint engineering with this figure. Therere plenty of diecast to boot. it wouls b cool if they design a horse for this gaiking. make it same theme with similar joint engineering, cloth sadle, and plenty of diecast. id buy both in a heart beat then.
cant tell how stable the figure is since the 3d artist never set him down without him holding it...

Haha, Baron! Going after us Fewture fans again! LOL Well, unlike the Fewture Ex Gokin SR's, and just like the ThreeZero Mazinger "H", this is one rendition of a cool character that I can't stand. I don't think I would even get it on sale...! Will just have to wait and see. }D

How odd the 2 companies that come up in reference to this toy are the two that I like least in this hobby Fewture and revoltech..Revoltech has been living off that horrible joint since they started..think it would have evolved into something that actually works well for their toys by now.The best use of that joint is for customs..not their floppy pretzel toys. Actually Revoltech doesn't do diecast but we lump them in hear. Anyhow GGG the dragon is called Daily Maryu and it would be just awesome if he were done for this toy!Love to see his design.as a dragon or horse!! .TMZ maybe then you'll bite!!

I don't know about you guys, but every time I see Gaiking the Knight's face it reminds me of the Joker from the Dark Knight.
And instead of a horse, I would rather see this Gaiking riding a Daiku Mayru.

But I doubt they make a horse ..seems like a DM is in order though as they have made Gaining split up in 3 with head piece for DM.
