well maybe that would have been better if v2 had separate hands.
my v2 really needs better hands. they fit ok with the guns, but very loose and floppy with the sword. the only way it holds is If I use both hands.

Thats why i mentioned about those hands, once it's used to hold the gun, it will became loose to hold the sword.

It's hard to take group shots with these iPhones. Something is either tout of focus of being blocked. Didn't even notice the sword handle blocking MazinKaiser face until I put everything back. Oh well. So this bottom picture, I uploaded using photobucket. It doesn't matter what image sharing website I use, The problem is from the websites not giving me an option to resize the photo during uploads. Sorry it bothers you this much. Can only suggest you used the mobile site with a mobile device.

Bro we cant see your pics they are HUUUUGE!Think i mentioned it before,no sense posting them,you cannot see them on computer,they need to be shrunk down.Sure as you said you may see them fine on a phone,but most people use computers,all you can see is a tan block or part of a sword.Use Photobucket or something.Its really necessary,Id like to see the photos but I cant.

Imgur gives you resizing options after the upload. All the photo size issues you guys have would be fixed immediately if this forum supported the [timg] BBCode. Photobucket > click on the Gear icon in the top right corner of the picture > drop down menu > click edit > new window opens - locate the resize tool from the icons (tab) located from the row of icons options > enter new size. I've been changing the size from 1024 to 768.

I've been changing the size from 1024 to 768. Tried but is this possible using the iPhone app? I tried the full site on the phone and it's hard to navigate cause it's not really made for mobile. The reason I don't use photobucket in the past is because there are a lot of ads and photo don't load. The apps allows me to get past some of the problem but seems limited too cause I don't see the option to resize. My problem again is no access to a PC/desk top. Only have Apple iPhone and iPad. Look into imgur and saw many negative review regarding the app. If I have access to a standard PC I will not have this problem because I didn't have this problem in the past. For me it's not a big problem cause I see the pictures fine on my mobile devices and I don't even use the normal full site forum anymore. Been years since I went to the full site and I can see Baron was talking about when I switched to full site. For now, I will just not link any photo until I find a better way.

It doesn't matter what image sharing website I use, The problem is from the websites not giving me an option to resize the photo during uploads. Sorry it bothers you this much. Can only suggest you used the mobile site with a mobile device. First off BRo you have an IPHONE and no digital camera? You are not getting the point,its not about bothering me,its for everyones sake!!the photos are for ALL of us,to be able to see on ANY device! Its not about me getting annoyed!the photos are useless if no one can look at them except on a tiny cellphone,not all of us have laptops either.No one should have to change devices to see photos here,thats crazy.They should be able to be seen on ALL devices. You should get a camera!!,they are CHEAP now!If you can afford these toys and an IPhone you can get a 50$ digital camera or a 20$ cheap used one..because posting pics no one can see also takes up HUGE amounts of the page here that Computer users{most of us} have to scroll through to get to the next thread! Its not personal,its just how it must be done.Seriously no one wants to see the CORNER of a photo,and then scroll bar the whole damn thing to imagine what it looks like by remembering bits of it??Come on man you get this.

I do have an old Sony Digital Camera from around 10 years ago. Still works. I can take pictures with it But what good is to me when I have no access to a PC. It uses Memory Stick, what good is it to me if I have no PC or laptop to transfer the image. For me to resize these images, I would need to go to the public library or something and get the use of a laptop/desktop computer. Haven't have to use either for years. $50 unlimited everything cell plan, so no longer need to have home internet access which lead to no PC at the house. Been this way for over two years. I get the point that you are annoyed and the users of the regular site, I apologize for the inconvenience. For now, I will not post my new images until I find a way.

How do you even collect that way? Toys I mean? Damn.I'm done derailing sorry guys.

How do you even collect that way? Toys I mean? Damn.I'm done derailing sorry guys. Not a money issue. it's a preference kind of thing. Whereas, you don't like typing on the small non keyboard screen and looking at a small 4 inch monitor, I am used to it. To me, home computers, desktops and laptops are obsolete. Would only need one if I play computer games or something. But visiting basic web forums etc... It's much easier on a mobile device. Another thing, I just don't have the time of day to sit down and use a computer. With the phone, I can whip it out, during my bathroom break at work, take a dump and post this message. Try doing that using a laptop sitting on the toilet, even if you have wifi. Still need to balance the laptop on the lap and type. It isn't as discrete when you are at a public bathroom. Imgur works best. Not the app but the main website. One of the pictures have been fixed. Lunch time, will fix the others later. Imgur works but not as convenient as sky path hi hosting with imageshack.

hehe... even though that skull looks funny.. i love the more obvious detail at the neck area. and i just cant resist not getting the old SKL for a price not even possible a year ago! Just got one used for just below 80usd. i guess some collectors or shops are really unloading thier "hoard" 1st release SKLs.

For those old enough to remember. ... I'm going to try to recreate the Maxell commercial with this Mazinkaiser. Already know the chair may be an issue.

Well, better late than never. Here's the review for the Super Robot Chogokin Mazinkaiser SKL Opening Credits Kaiser in action Tornado Crusher Punch Breast Triggers (I know.. *snicker* ) Breast Triggers ends require some parts swapping when using them as guns. For those who missed it in all the fast-paced action scenes, the ammo clips for the Breast Triggers are the "fins" on Kaiser's forearms. The Breast Triggers can also be used as melee weapons. Alternately, they can be combined and used to form Axe mode (I was hoping for an accessory of this to be included here.. no luck). The cape (tarp?) accessory. Ganzanto Comparison with original Mazinkaiser (Weapons available only when in Wing Cross/ Full power mode) Kaidu also only shouts the attacks when Kaiser is in full power mode. Rust Stream Thor Hammer Breaker Inferno Blaster The SKL-RR (Bike form for land mode, flying skeletal mount mode for flight mode). The Good-Kaiser weighs 212 Grams (260 Grams with the cape) . For those curious, original SRC Mazinkaiser is 277 (and 308 Grams with Scrander wings on). SRC Genesic GGG is 344 Grams. -Diecast parts include -- lower legs --Main (torso-connecting) joints --Upper Torso -Adjustable Breast Triggers so they don't get in the way of posing. -Manual gives a detailed account of which points are sharp on the toy (thanks Bandai!) -Cape is decent, gives the figure a cool look. The Bad-Skull Pileder still not removable -Lol.. lots of sharp points. Despite the manual warnings I still poked myself. So be careful. -No Wings -No SKL-RR bike -Much lighter than Mazinkaiser? Was hoping for at least equal heft. -Front section of the cape tends to pop off too easily for me. The UglyThankfully, nothing really bad to report here. Overall, it's a nice update over the original release. Better tooling on some parts (chest skull), upsized scale. Even if it falls a bit short of expectations due to the lacking wings (and the Bike, too, but I guess that was expected), it's a solid purchase and doesn't disappoint and the best part is, it gives folks who missed out on the first release a second chance to get this character. Funfact : We never hear anyone in the show refer to the machine as Mazinkaiser, they just call it "Kaiser". Funfact 2 : Akira Fudo and Miki Makimura (from Devilman) and Lori (Rolly?) make a cameo in the OVA (thanks to TheMazingerZ for the correction. ) Funfact 3: A while back we saw images of a customized SRC Mazinger in Japanese hobby Magazines, it turns out it was based on the "Mazin Brothers" design which hailed from the Mazinkaiser SKL Manga. mazinger.wikia.com/wiki/Mazinger_Z_(SKL) Closing Credits Gold
