Got mines two Mondays ago on 3/30 but haven't got the chances to open it up and display it until last night. I like this one so much more over the regular MazinKaiser. It just looks so much better. Them blue eyes are really nice in person. And in person, can't really see the black outlines on the blue eyes. The head sculpt looks so much better than the regular MasinKaiser. SKL is just the better of the two in my opinion in design aesthetics. Only thing is SKL has lots of sharp points so handle with care. The shoulder joint is interesting. Has many points of articulation. I had to try it out myself. And it took awhile to get it into this pose cause the cape does get in the way but it does look nice on hi I will redo the last picture when I get the time to. The angle I took the picture isn't good. In person the pose looks better. I feel that this is one of the better SRC that we have gotten in a while. From the moment I saw the face and the head sculpt, I was like yes, yes , yes, This is way cool. Totally different from the unboxing of the regular SRC Mazinkaiser which was kinda dissapointing and SRC Shin Getter too was for me disappointing. While your at it please shrink the pics,they are so big no one can see them! Just to help you out MINE does not need an S on the end its already plural,just helping out.Or is that some sort of slang,like "I gots mines"?,Its a sad thing..that's 2 wasted letter S'es that could be used elsewhere,there are many starving words in poor sentences that could use letter S'es badly!... LOL,just joking around! supergetterv ! The cape does look good I agree,but it also looks JUST as good without it,having 2 of the SKL in both poses is almost a must..glad I have the smaller old ones for that purpose..The cape almost gives it a star wars Tatooine look right?

Yup, Tatooine. Thanks for looking out and correcting my verbage. Much appreciated. I no longer have access to a computer and everything is done using the iPhone, my only access to the web nowadays. So the picture was shot using the skypath app and uploaded to imageshack. The App doesn't seem to have a resizing function. Best solution I can think of for you, view these thread using a mobile phone or a small tablet and the picture won't be so big. Will fix things up a bit once I find a desk top computer to resize them pictures.

SKL fights like Dante, with style and the SKL Minerva is like Bayonetta. Will look into imgur and see if it is as user friendly. I use Skypath and imageshack cause it's quick. Take the picture and upload. Copy the link and paste into forums post. Quick and simple to use on the phone.

I just cameback from a short vacation to find my SKL waiting me at home! I am not sure how do I really feel about this figure but I know it does not impress me that much. It's kinda of a restyled SRC Mazinkaiser. I still lean towards the first release for its dark color and smaller size (untowering SRC Grendizer). However, this v.2 is in scale with SRC Kaiser... So, here is a cool option. Now, hold on... The cloak isn't soft rubber? Bummer!
Considering SKL is from a different universe (w/ unknown stats), I won't have a big issue displaying him next to my SRC Dizer though.
Cheers!

Bro, I mean... the first SRC SKL doesn't look -too much- like SRC Mazinkaiser figure (you can detect some figure differences). But, the v.2 SKL figure looks TOO MUCH like the SRC Kaiser figure. I was talkin' about the "action figures" not the super robots as lookalike Mazin canon members. Of course, I watched the OVA in 2010 and I liked it.

I dont get the humour,I knew exactly what you meant,and there isnt much differences between SKL figure and the anime robot.As far as the 2 SKL figures they dont look any different to me besides size.the 2 SKL figures are almost exactly the same besides size and minor color.So why would one SKL look any more or any less like the SRC Mazinkaiser besides size?unless your really over examining.

Oh, then, perhaps because I am a former professional animator and comic artist - or simply, because I have an artistic sense like most of the action figure collectors - I can see the difference between the 1st and 2nd SKL releases in terms of size and colors, and why the 2nd SKL figure looks a bit close to the classic SRC Mazinkaiser. COME ON! The 2 figures look like brothers.

I also have an art degree and eye for detail but all I'm saying is there is no huge differences only minor I don't get what all the fuss is about and why this point is an argument.It doesn't take a professional anything to see that the differences aren't huge..who cares anyhow ..so they look like brothers OK..so what?One is just smaller SKL with less detail I don't get why all this is so important lol.I own 2 old one new SKL one has a cape with a nicer skull and different colors and some improvements one is smaller and doesn't..are you trying to decide which is better or if you should get both? I'm losing the point of this discussion.

Kinda hate the slim body of the ver 2, and yeah, without the cape and the breast plate, he's just like mazinkaiser recolor. Twe ver also give different pair of hands for the guns and the sword. Atleast to me, the twe ver haven't lost its exclusiveness ;D
