To me... this one is a must. I was hoping for a dc getter dragon but bandai showed us a lot of getters except Dragon... I'll have to get the gx18, that now has a very high price.

18CM !!! what the heck man this so small i thought it will be at least 22cm combined ! Yeah. It's surprisingly short, even shorter than emperor despite being able to combine in three modes which worries me. Maybe they wanted it to scale well with past SOC Getters?

Most mazingers and getters are in that scale (except mazinkaiser). I'm happy with it.

Not surprised at the size though, to keep it roughly same size with other SOC Getters and Mazingers, rather than a giant odd-man-out displayed next to them. If I am buying this, I actually prefer this size.

Will skip this one, im a getter fan but for some reason this vers has never been one to like at all It's understandable. I have not watched the whole show, just have the manga. But from the little I've seen, the anime treated it more like a traditional combiner super robot than a Getter. Just look at the combination sequences and you'll know. Getters always morph with anime magic and focused on Getter Ray, but not Go, making the aesthetics quite different, as well as the atmosphere of the show. And look at this mid season upgrade...feels more like a Brave. If I remember correctly, at least in the manga, that Go doesn't even use Getter Ray as energy, but the Getter Ray energy theme is very much present, especially important for Shin's setup that came later. The manga feels more Getter in the storytelling, and Go is pretty much the setup/precursor/placeholder to pave the entrance of Shin Getter towards the last quarter of the manga series. You can say that Shin Getter's introduction into the Getter-verse is really the meat of the Getter Go story. But all those were not presented in the anime, and it got this armor instead. The anime show is Getter in name, but the direction of the show went somewhere else, as far as I know. (Getter Go doesn't even have those wings with the spinning thing in the manga. The body shapes are overall more round like traditional Getters) As of the SOC, I am not sure to get it or not. Lukewarm to the anime look design and what the show represents, but it is rare to see a Getter Go chogokin being made after so many years. I guess the price can be a factor.

I think the size is okay too, as long as the price is proportionate. Getter-1 is supposed to be bigger than Getter Go in real life, but for display purposes, this set will look good next to GX-75/91 as well as GX-87 Getter Emperor.

Getter Go is around 18 m. May be smallest Getter.

fun fact its 1cm taller than the DC Mazinger, just to let you know lol
if they priced it right, gave it a decent amount of diecast, smooth transformation, and a premium feel, probably i wont care much about the size
but for a combiner it should be bigger than this, corrected me if im wrong, is this the smallest combiner in the SOC line ?

Its the right size. It doesn't have to be bigger to be a combiner, in fact as someone says I wouldn't want it to be bigger, it would not look good with the other getters and mazingers. For example ultramans king joe SOC is a combiner and is about 16cm to be in scale with the ultrmamans sh figuarts, it makes more sense than making it 23 or 24cm just for nothing (I'm looking at you gipsy danger...)

It can combine into all 3 forms!!!
Maybe this was shown before but I don't remember. In my head I only remembered the 1st form.

Getter Go is 20 meters in real world. Mazinger Z is 18 meters, so the scaling is correct here. getterrobo.fandom.com/wiki/Getter_Robo_Go_(Mecha)My concern is the joints and parts are solid, considering it will be on the small and thin side.

yes bro i knew that, remember a while back when i showed you guys my vintage ko Getter Go ? i was researching the robot over all
the scale is right but for me personally i love huge combiner so if they made it a bit taller i would be much happier with it
but still i love the character since it used to be a part of my childhood (even tho i thought it was a mechanical beast not a hero robot LOL)
now we need to know the price, preoder date and release date

Man, hoping he's not too expensive, because it looks amazing. Size wise doesn't fit in my collection but it looks so good

Man, I guess it would cost close 20000YEN. I might skip it as the size is quite small after combination. I prefer to play with my Super GetterRobot.
