Although its rather old, and outdated.. it has his own unique appeal. ofcourse its from the original getter anime, its a must have if you plan of having a getter in your collection. GX-06 was my first getter. whereas, GX-52 and SRC G1 are from the same anime, so in my case, its unnecessary. unless i would sell my GX-52 hehe.. but i think i wouldnt exchange it for a smaller version with less accessories.

Good one BKΩ! It is almost absurd that the GX-06 is the most recent modern representation of the original Getter 1 from 1974. At least to my knowledge. I mean, the GX-06 is over ten years old now, right? Shame on you Bandai, constantly pushing the new Getter 1 design and not even giving the original one a chance to shine...

I ordered one, can't have to many Getters plus it's less then 5,000YEN with a PO. I also want a new toy of the classic version but it seems the fans just like the chubby Getter more for some reason. I personally think it looks like a egg or a pill lol.

Shame on you Bandai, constantly pushing the new Getter 1 design and not even giving the original one a chance to shine... I mean, I have nothing against '74 Getter (if anything, I prefer '74 Getter's 'heroic' look, even if the purple tomahawks are kinda silly) but I DO see why this version is ALWAYS made as a toy. it's meaner, it's got a more dynamic look to it, and it's more modern. the reason I say GX-06 is STILL the definitive version is because it has the ONLY Modern Show-Accurate Getter 2 and Getter 3. Everything else is a redesign like Fewture or an SD like the Dynamic Change or ES Gokin. the same goes for GX-19 and GX-20. Why has there NOT been a more recent SHOW-ACCURATE representation of Getter Poseidon or Getter Liger?! Getters are supposed to be in sets of THREE, right? ....on that same stint, when was the last time Getter Go, Getter Sho, and Getter Gai had a figure? I can only remember the DX for the later two... and Neo Getter has NEVER had units 2 or 3 made in ANY toy line...then again, the Getter Zan team NEVER had ANY figures...

Got one as well. Hey, just like with the Mazingers, there is no such thing as too many Getter Robo action figures! }D

yes getting it for a couple of reasons, but the most obvious one is that SRC Shin Getter 1 needs another Getter in the group. i mean pretty much Shin Getter 1 is the only one out of place with the group been almost fill with Mazingers (yes Grendizer is not a Mazinger but he pretty much acts as one as well having the style and color of them that makes it look like one so his included).
im curious, once they do Getter Dragon(if they do), will they make a TWE version of him but with the Toie colors version?(like the Getter Robo Daikessen game). we already know there is gonna be a Black Getter later on as a TWE thats for sure, but i wouldn't minde if they painted Getter 1 in the proto Getter 1 colors

I agree 100% with you ! first too much mazinger and getter against many other robot like Daikengo or Golion waiting for Bandai treatment... and Two again a Modern Getter...

I agree with actionawesome's comments above. If this Getter (classic Super Robot) doesn't do well in sales, the chances of Getter 2 and Getter 3 getting made will become almost non-existant, let alone a 1970's anime Getter 1. And for that matter, the chances of other even less popular Super Robots. It is cheap enough, and it looks good. You must give to receive. I hated the SRC Crayola Robot, but even so, it was cheap so I got one (don't even know where I put it). It was a "Super Robot". I want Bandai to continue thinking that making Super Robots is profitable. Of course, not so much with the Armored Core or Sentai robots (sorry). But even then, I still purchased one Sentai Megazord. }D

I was surprised with this news. I'm looking forward to this getter and I also hope 2 and 3 will be made along with the getter g team.
