No. It's the same mold, but with different paint. I don't dig the rough finish so much, but I do like the silver accents they added. The paint finish looks more like the SOC Mazingers now. }D

so whats so special about this Mazinger version other than the paint scheme? is it much bigger? yeah. I don't see the reason to buy this at all. there's not a significant difference in the colors and there's not even any cool accessories like the getter color version for instance. this is a definite pass.

This Kurogane Edition reminds me of that Mazinger Z kit Extra Heavy version by Bandai...

LOL... the funny thing is, I customized a GX-45 Shin Mazinger into a Toei Mazinger Z and added the same rough Iron look this SRC has in the body, but at the end I didn't really like how it looked. However, every time I got ready to strip it all off and redo it in glossy paint, I just couldn't bring myself to do it. }D

Just a normal repaint, nothing more. Extra pocket money for bandai. And using amiami pricelist as reference, the kurogane cost twice as much as the original mazinger z.

Don't forget that it comes with the Scrander, and a mote detailed paint job. So in reality, at the AmiAmi price, it's not that much more than the original. }D

Also, Japan once again had a tax increase which affects the price.

Me too. I just skipped the Asian Restaurant version and the Getter Version. Just way too weird of a repaint for my taste. I almost skipped the Devilman version for the same reason, but now I'm glad I didn't. }D

Ohhh I have that one. Though it was one i had missed That one was the most elusive and expensive one i got out of the 4 repaints. Not ebay expensive but still expensive for an SRC. The devilman was also a pain to get.

Yes, I know I have them all with the exception of the Kurogane that is on pre-order.
I am a big sucker for Mazinger-Z.
