The megazord soc is great and I would never sell it. The one that was expelled was the legacy megazord i agree with you here, the GX-72 is the best figure for the MegaZord in the market, true it could be better but i like it the way its

I still prefer jeeg over great mazinger different tastes bro for me Great is better, it comes with alot of accessories and over all its acceptable for its price while Jeeg comes almost nothing and the joints color is pure ugly not to mention the his T-Rex arms Well, I guess that the original release does come with accessories to spare. Jeeg is overpriced that's for sure. They could have easily included the pantheroid for a very similar price. But the figure itself is better. Both have f**ked up proportions but is more severe in great mazinger imo. And the play value on great decreases with the condor always falling off and some of the joints being too loose. Plus the metal joints in the hips are too small, so one actually broke on me. But it's not like either is terrible.

This is fun! Mazinkaiser SKL SRC. First disappointment was the fact that Bandai decided not to include that tiny plastic nub that allows you to attach the sword to his back on this particular release. Why? Then I start posing it and the face pops off and barely stays on now. Lol I recently ordered the Gunbuster SRC FX kit w the cape. Took the cape out and attached it to the figure. Gunbuster buckled at every possible joint. Lol The cape is way too heavy to use w my Gunbuster. I spent 20 mins trying to get him to stand w this massive plastic thing attached to his back and finallly gave up and returned it. MEGAZORD SOC.......what went wrong? Lol Toynami 30th die cast. Love the stand.....the rest is garbage. I keep it because it looks decent in one pose and it’s a die cast voltron. Hmm. Interesting I have both SKL mazinkaisers and they are amazing. The only issue I have with them is that the knee rackets are too weak

I love the figure! SKL is one of my favorite super robots. I didn’t do enough research and ordered the second reissue which unbeknownst to me.....didn’t include the piece. I was disappointed lol Then the faceplate popped off. I still love him though.

I don't have any problems with the ankles. Just the knees. But if that's the case, you can always pop the joint off and apply a thin layer of super glue to the diecast ball, let it dry, and pop it back in. That usually does the trick for me. Just gotta be careful not to fuse the joint.

The brain Cóndor on my didn't even stay. The kurogane one stays decently well if you don't fiddle around with it. The joints are way better, but the torso joints are still finicky

Thanks for the heads up S! I maybe dodged a bullet then you are welcome bro, the best SKL in my opinion is the 2nd release with the cape even if it cant put the sword in his back i have all the 3 and its just the best Interesting. I don't have any problems with the ankles. Just the knees. But if that's the case, you can always pop the joint off and apply a thin layer of super glue to the diecast ball, let it dry, and pop it back in. That usually does the trick for me. Just gotta be careful not to fuse the joint. thank you for your suggestion i will try to do it on my free time

I still love all my EVAs as well. I know they can be fiddly but they are so unique. Still the most disappointed in GX-41 Reideen. Could not wait for this to come out as he was one of my favorite toys as a kid. Finally comes out and it should really not be called a SOC with how little die cast there is in it. Also nothing stays on, so fiddly. I kept it out of love for the character only. I know I'm gonna be bashed over this but I like my SOC Eva they were great when I bought them and still love them. Also recently I had experience my first revoltech, the Eva evolution Mark .06, I though I could fill the void of movie evas with those (they almost scale with soc ones and they were being re edited). I was wrong. I photos it looked awesome for 35us but in hand I couldn't pass it. Paint was messy, articulation was good but it looked as it was going to break. The paint got in my fingers. I cancelled all the other ones I had on PO and still trying to sell it (here in Argentina it's very hard to sell those stuff) But my most disappointing figure must be legacy megazord, I bought it after owning thunder megazord, dragonzord and tigerzord. Being the first one in the line there was a lot of difference in the quality of the product (and metal seems forced into it and not helping the figure in any way. That was because it was a re release of 2010 megazord with metal). You couldn't even combine it with dragonzord because its knees would bend and half body would fall due to the weight of the dragonzord. I kept it until I got my soc megazord and month later I finally was able to sell it
