Even if it looks quite different from what Yamato used to do for the Metal Box series of toys... this one looks less deformed, and has got a nice level of detail going on...
That price though, it is a bit expensive yes. Not much more expensive than figures from the ES Gokin line from Fewture though. This is nothing "too crazy" right?

So the figure is 11 cm tall, which roughly translates to 1000 JPY per cm. Thank God that I am not into super deformed figures.

Youre welcome! I was putting accessories away and realized I left the small stand and tomahawk slash effect out of the review. The stand is very basic black plastic and the slash effect is a translucent pinkish PVC. looks like a quality gokin. i liked everything except the rubbery pvc cape. it really should b abs or cloth now days. love the box, love how easy it is to pose. the proportion looks to be one of the best as far sd s concerned. Far better then now outdated fewture es getter 1proportion. aw...i want one! thanks alot chachi

Got one when it released. Awesome figure. I'm a sucker for SD so this fit my collection perfectly. I believe they are also releasing a different paint model. same figure metallic paint instead of white.

guys, i after recieveing it what seems like weeks i finally got the chance to open and handle it
pros wow, its legitamate gokin with tons of dicast. articulation everywhere. the only missing is ab joint. so no ab crunch nor turn articulation where hip meets stomach...the joint feels velvety. perfect , no cheap squeeks. even the light button feels rich. beautifully sculpted with jewel like clear parts with perfect paint app in vibrant colors. beatifully handpainted cover on the box. very beautiful. thankfully no poison styro for me to wrestle with.
cons few cheap soft heavy pvc parts. unfortunately ,the beautiful cape, axes, and ofcourse hands are all toxic pvc. ......thats it for the con!!
summary this is the best sd figure i ever delt with. The best. end of the story. it beats the hell out of artstorms ES line. wheather youre into, gokins, getters, or sd figs, please do yourself a favor and get this. you will thank yourself. highly highly recommended.
i now eagerly wait for the black getter. his color prototype looks shockingly good.

Anyone know where I can find that Proto getter? I know they were sold at SDCC but haven't found it anywhere, even on the bay. I was going to skip out on repaints but a the prototype scheme looks soooo good.

just preoed this guy at AE for around 94. a good deal considering i paid 103 shipped for Getter 1.
ill put up more preo announcment from our usuals as they come up. i cant recommend this guy enough. i dare to compare these getters to SD counterpart to the sentinel getter bros. thats as far as the pure quality of the workmanship and exclusivity, if you will.
