imagine it's due to a bad paint job when doing the regular production run and Bandai just say "Ah, we just sell it as limited pieces and do a lottery draw, NO ONE will NOTICE!!!"

;D ;D ;D I'm with changegetter! If you think about it when you are calibrating the machine to start manufacturing, you get a few irregulars during the first few runs. Some genius in marketing thought of making it a special edition.

That would be SO easy to make a fake of. Hell if I could find a cheap GX-01B I would just custimize it to look like the Iron Castle version. Also is this the chrome Getter you were talking about?

I think I still like my regular color gx-06 better. Just my opinion.

Awesome pics y'all.
I wonder if they'll ever do a GX-06R and make all three Getters like this. *prays*
Andrewdsz, is that yours?

Nah, it belongs to a HK collector called jack. That jack ass bast-ard got it years ago from Yahoo Japan for a dirt cheap 900$ because the seller had no idea about the value of this piece.
Japan bandai museum has SG-01 GODAIKIN Tetsujin28, but not GX-01 Iron Castle.

GX-06R NOT LIKELY! The only thing I would change on that(and the rest of the earlier SOCs)are the flimsy name sticker used on the display stands.

That chrome getter I guess is a homage to the old Getter from the Chogokin/Shogun Warriors line. If there's only one then good luck getting it let alone seeing it in person, there's a better chance of one of us dating Jessica Biel than getting that.

No wonder! It should have gotten an exclusive release just like other SOC recolors.
