I was poking around the Robot-Japan site today (I usually just read the boards) and stumbled on this pic: According to the text it says that it is an early SOC. I tried to find more info about it on the web and came up with nothing. Is it diecast like the later SOCs? I'd love to see an actual photo of the toy out of the box. Any further info about this would be greatly appreciated.

This is the GD-03 chogokin GoD raideen made by bandai in 1997. The original yen price is 5000, and there're two versions, the regular version and the black version. The one in your picture is the black ver. , which is almost blk over all. I think there's still a regular version on sale on one of the ebay stores,150$ "buy it now" option.

Thank you, Andrewdsz!!! I did a search and found the ones you were talking about on eBay. Where is this Raideen version from? Did they do an updated version of the Anime like Getter Robo G to Shin Getter Robo? I was completely unaware of this? Thanks again!!!

Yes, there's an anime called " Super-raideen" was showed back to 1996~1997. It is very similar to the original raideen anime, and the robot we are talkin about showed up on episode 25 as "God raideen" with the absolute divine power which can crush anything in the world.

I heard the show was ass. You call it God Reideen and don't show the robot till the end of the show??? Man the powers that be in Japan make some fuqn odd decissions.

I had that one. The Black one and I sold it a long time ago. It was a pretty well made toy and I liked the look of Raideen.
I hope Bandai will add it to their SOC line.

So was brave at least in the episodes prior???
