bro $500 is an awesome deal last time i checked it was about $700 and if you want the anime colors Jet scrander than came with the repaint version (comic color) it will set you on less than $900 for both (if you can find them) the starting price for Great Mazinger was about is $700 also if you can find it, a guy on ebay was asking for $1000 (the price of two DX Great Mazinger) man i really miss the days when AE used to send you the payment request for shipping and the shipping notice faster than you can blink your eyes Ive asked them to ship mine a while ago yet no answer so i have to stay up, to see whats going on with them I just looked at the prices on eBay and you're right. They are $700 plus. Toooooooo rich for my blood. I'll just take my my two robots with less accessories and be very happy. LOL.

LOL, thanks bro i guess they lost alot of customers due the fact of their not existing customers services and the surprising drop in their over all services like packaging and damage boxes, i honestly got shocked when they replied within minutes, and i was forced to go with them since i already have the original i didn't want to spend alot on this repaint, you know my policy of no repaints (unless something got broken) and AE was the cheapest + they have a private warehouse free of charger, that's always come handy for me honestly

I just pre-ordered this from the BBTS, and I'm really excited! I have some of their SD figures, but this will be my first serious Fewture release. I had ordered the Mazinger D.C., but this caught my eye. I went back and cancelled the D.C after reading this thread. This looks way cooler. I was going to get one of their Getters a while back, but the QC issues scared me off. I hope they release seperate weapons/scrander at some point. But still, I can't wait to get this!

The style is so unique. And, from what I can see from the pics, the detail and quality level look insane. This can't arrive soon enough!

ok guys i just got mine the figure is INSANELY beautiful, photos gives it less than %20 justice, its VERY VERY beautiful to look at in person, im not a fan of chrome and in my opinion it should be limited just for weapons, but Fewture did an amazing job with the chrome on this guy, its not super shiny or fading either its in between, and the new blue paint is blinding nicely with the chrome my advice get it before you regret it funny thing to share, after the rumble i did in the main post office couple of days ago, they sent this figure to my near by post office in no time LOL and the dude give it to me before it even go in the system i guess they were like ok next shipment to Saud A.. OMG that the dude who yelled at us ABORT everything send it to him NOW lol honestly im a man of peace i hate it when i have to yell at people to make them see & understand my point specially those who just wont listen when you talk to them gently, its a language many of use dont wanna use, but sadly some people just wont get it in any other languages EDIT here is a quick shot for it, please understand this is from my phone using Snapchat app, and im sure most of you guys know that Snapchat reduce the quality of Android phones camera

alright i just finished taken photos for this repaint version and im telling you i compared it side by side to the older version and this one is just pure awesomeness, the only thing the older version got better is the accessories, luckily i bought the weapon set for the comic color version long ago so it come very handy now lol
the chrome made this figure looks more alive the paint gives it the still wet effect, couple of things to put in mind tho
1- i had a problem with the magnets on the arms (same as the old version) Fewture put spits instead of glue so the magnets will end up coming out most likely the rocket punch to the arm but you can superglue it tho
2-make sure to move the hover/jet pilders wing by its joint dont move it by the actual wings so you don't bend it
3-keep a microfiber cloth close by, so you can remove your finger prints from the figure
4-my advice is dont open its mouth AT ALL the mouth is soft pvc and it will become loose so it will end up been slightly open not to mention you might damage the teeth
5-for some reason the ratchet joints on the right leg on my unit is not clicky as the left leg, its not loose its just not giving me the right sound
6-there was a weird feature on the old version which is you can take the whole arms out, back then i didn't like it but now i love it, it helps you give the figure a last min cleaning before the photoshoot start, im not sure if this new version have that (forgot to try)
7-there is an extra joint on the knee but its very tricky and hard to move so i didn't use it ( didn't really need to move it )
Lastly i really recommend getting this figure specially if you missed the first one its just super awesome figure to look at and to handle

Can you take a picture of and explain how to remove the arms? i never knew that was a thing. does it also apply to the great mazingers? sure man no problems i will do it when i have time (later tonight hopefully) you just hold the shoulder from the top and pull it out gently (just like Voltron) as for Great Mazinger it does apply on it as well, im not sure about this new repaint tho EDIT sorry man last night i was really busy, here you go see you just pull the arm gently like you are pulling the red or green lions from Voltron nothing in Fewture say im pure Taku Sato like Mazinger z and Great Mazinger he literally put his everything in those two, i feel really blessed that i got them into my collection

i thought i quote you guys lol greengetterguy thank you bro, its indeed a very beautiful figure, and the only reason im dealing with those stupid people from the post office is because they cost nothing its totally free if its a personal use, other shipping companies will require at least $30, its sound cheap but when you pay at least $30 extra on every shipment you feel its alot, the DX Great Mazinger could cost me about $186 extra if i used another shipping company mpchi you welcome man, and i agree its a must have for every Mazinger Z fan
