Just got this and it's fantastic. Really love the look of these Infinity designs. My favorite part of this one is the ridiculously oversized Drill Pressure Punch! No real surprises here otherwise if you have the Mazinger. Feels really solid, joints are tight, flawless paint. Excellent all around. And compared to the recent model kit....

I just love the re-design of the Drill Pressure Punch, makes me wonder how Grendizer (weapon-wise) or the Getters would be re-imagined in the Infinity universe.

Congrats to bros who got him. He sure is beautiful...
Cant wait for your reviews.
I cancelled mine due to, among other things, the complete lack of exterial diecast. MB Mazinger has diecast on fore arms, lower legs AND "the cod piece" is diecast...so.

I wish that there were some sort of public designer notes that explained choices like that.

Still waiting for mine to show up.... one thing I noticed is the model kit face seems to be a lot sharper than the MB.... can’t judge to close but to me the kit one has a sharper face than the other MB? .... just noticing not nitpicking. This Great looks amazing and his feet did bother me at first but watching them up close in Charles review I am gladly surprised. Also the price is higher than Z but this Great has a lot more to offer. Maybe Bandai cut cost doing it all plastic and not include diecast. History tells that big brother takes a lot longer to sell than Z and I believe they did not want to lose $$ on this one. They are like all big companies out there ..... All about the Benjamin’s!!

Yeah, bit diappointing for a "metal fiend" like me....
MB Great regressed in that department. Also, Here was a "Great" chance to improve upon the neck issue from MB Mazinger but no...Bandai MB team just ignores it...
SOC DX team improved on Mazinger to Great Mazinger...why didnt MB team? Sentinel and 5Pro Studio DEFINATELY would have improved and fixed the issues given such a chance.
Having said all that, it is a stunning just a stunning display piece...I cant fault how he looks. Visually a faultless piece.

Great pics Goldorak!
Got mine last Friday and I really, really like it! I usually prefer Mazinger Z to Great, but this time I think Great is the winner. Still sad about the neck limitations and lack of Thunder Break effects, but am still plenty happy with this one! Probably one of my favorite MB's together with Eva 1 and Exia Repair. Hoping Gunbarrel Striker and Strike Freedom keep the hype going...

Bandai's making an Infinity styled Mazinkaiser after their Infinity Grendizer... hoping for the Metal Build treatment for both of these designs, cause I will buy them for sure. Though I hope the scale is handled better than with the HG's.... www.taghobby.com/archives/367697
