Great review Gold. However, those two characters in te restaurant were not Koji and Sayaka. They were Akira Fudo (Devilman) and Miki Makimura. }D

Thanks guys! Great review Gold. However, those two characters in te restaurant were not Koji and Sayaka. They were Akira Fudo (Devilman) and Miki Makimura. }D No kidding? I've never watched a single episode of DevilMan. Thanks for the correction TheMazingerZ. Gold

is regards to the chest guns, I don't even bother to use the little connected barrel piece. I just juse the completed guns for mounting on the chest and it works fine.
a small bit less maneuverability in the waist but that's it.
a tiny price to pay for motvhavingnto keep up with more little bits. back in the box you go!

Yes that does simplify it, but there's the risk that you might loose one of the barrel pieces. It is a bit small and does seem to slide off with little effort when pointing downwards. Gold

Octocamo, nice photo. Yes, I agree that it is better without the front cape.

going to get the wing version, but is the cloak worth buying the figure again?

The Cloak Mazinkaiser is the early version of the Mazinkaiser SKL , the Src have a good presence on a shelf so if you find it for a low price go get it

going to get the wing version, but is the cloak worth buying the figure again? That's going to depend on your taste. Personally the cloak has grown on me. I really like how it stands out in the display. Also there would appear to be some major color differences between the cloak version and the scrander one. As pointed out the Cloak version is from the beginning of the movie. The wing version and color scheme from the end. I plan on getting a V2 winged version. But I don't think it will be quite as distinct of a display piece.

I'm happy with just one version since I personally thought the SKL anime was subpar but I'm happy they are releasing this version though.

I find the anime is quite tolerable provided you down a couple of European import beers first and then binge watch it along with Adult Swim's Metalocalypse to properly set the mood. It's so over the top in its trying to be badass that it works well as a spoof.

It does look like he is draped in melted plastic.
