I knew they'd come out with this sooner or later, if this is confirmed, then most likely Grendizer will probably follow.

Sadly, it still has the tiny head. But you gotta admit, it still looks pretty cool! }D

Yeah. The head still seems tiny. Damn Bandai.
However, I think the awesome JM-coloring creates a huge distraction to hide the tiny head.
GM just looks so damn BOSS in the JM-coloring!
Hoping this is a general release instead of an event-exclusive or TWE. It's got a big nostalgia-factor for us westerners.

Well, at least they're repainting something other than Z for a change.

Yet another repaint in the SRC line, huh? Well, at least is not a Mazinger Z repaint.
"Repaints, repaints everywhere."

oh great.....another recolor of SRC Mazinger Z in the wor............wait what?!? SRC Great Mazinger in Jumbo colors?!?!? well not surprise there doing it if the already did Mazinger Z in jumbo colors.
So it seems Bandai has nothing new in both SoC and SRC line so i guess the market must be very slow in Japan for having more interesting Super Robots or people got tired on seeing the classics.
very dissapointing, so what is next? Great Mazinger in:
- Getter Dragon Color versions - SKl version. -Wasami version.
get ready people, is the second coming of the recolors.

That looks horrid, and they STILL never fixed the head. Other than the micro head, what's wrong with it? }|

I see the SRC Great Mazinger sculpt as a modernized version of a small well-articulated chogokin toy. Of course I don't like the small head, but hey, whatcha gonna do? Besides, we already have the perfect anime-accurate Great Maz, the GX-02R This version? I don't think jumbo colors go well with small gokins, honestly.. they're not terrible, but I'm gonna pass. I'd rather see more new entries in this line, rather than all the repaints we're getting. All I'm excited about at the moment, as far as SRCs go, is Godsigma. And the Grendizer set.

Wished the shoulders were painted black. It looks like he has a sleeveless shirt. :-)

The overall proportion of the head sculpt is just not very well balanced. Its face is too narrow, horns are too thin, head crown is just too wide. I have a feeling that it was designed by someone that has no clue on the beauty of Mazinger designs. ehhh... it is the same exact head as the regular release version. Nothing was changed sculptwise... }|

OK love the Maz jumbo SRC gotta get this..wish Maz jumbo had scrander too though..also as I explained in other thread WHY would anyone expect a change in any sculpt from banda they NEVER have done any version 2 of anything besides SKL..why would anyone think differently? With all the complaints about Gmazingers head they still don't fix it because they DONT care.We can all keep dreaming..version 2 is not in Bandais vocabulary.

Updated the title. Seems this is an upcoming Nagai-museum exclusive for this year. Not likely a general release.

I think the color scheme may be contributing to the "small head" impression. Didn't the "Shogun Warrior" or Jumbo Machinder version of the character have a slightly oversized head? So seeing those colors now used on this SRC mold sort of amplifies the impression of it having a small head.
