Is it my imagination or are some of those swords chromed?

Yeah it looks like the swords are chromed now. I like the chromed swords but I'm pretty indifferent to the chromed thighs. I think they should just leave them painted or chrome ALL the grey parts.

I love chrome swords, so that's a huge improvement to me, but I'm not a big fan of those upper legs. I'd like for them to at least chrome the upper arms too, or to just leave chrome off the Mazinkaiser entirely.

Yeah, I don't get the chrome pics at all. The official pics on the sight look a million times better. If he ends up being chrome I will be ticked off. If he looks like the official pics, this will be my favorite Chogokin of all-time. I guess there really is a fine line between love and hate.

Its the chrome swords and display stand I want, so I preordered me one... maybe they can go with my Aoshima Mazinkaisers... the bot is just an added accesory, but who knows I might grow to like it also.

I still don't know why they didn't chrome all the grey parts or left them painted but with those gold joints now I kinda like the chrome thighs. I guess they didn't want their version confused with the Aoshima black versions.

The swords look very metallic but not chromed. The mazinkaiser looks very posable, but it'll need to have very stiff joints for it to be safe to have it in wild poses. I don't mind the gold joints, but I wonder if the arms will be able to contract and extend like the aoshima version. I have a feeling the elbows will look like crap when they're not bent if there isn't something like that. The blue on the arms and legs seems to be a bit lighter in these newest pics too. I guess it probably won't have any firing arms. That would be too bad, not that the firing arms on the Aoshima one are any good. I can see it won't look that good in a rocket punch pose thanks to the way the underside of the shoulder armor looks. The aoshima one didn't look that good in rocket punch poses either. What's up with those legs anyway? It looks like the thighs are made of 2 halves that come together left and right instead of the usual front and back, and there seems to be a big fat screw cover on visible from the front on each.

bizzio, I'm sure the chrome thighs version is their latest version. They could change it again before release, but it does say "saishin seihin gazou" which means the latest images of the product.

It's a real shame that they decided to chrome the thighs and add all the gold joints; the original figure looked a lot better in my opinion. Here's to hoping the final, final mech more closely resembles the original rather than the latter, although I'll probably end up getting it either way, since the Mazinkaiser is one of my top two favorite super robots (along with Shin Getter 1).
