this is a mail that max factory have send to me Hello, Thank you for your interest and inquiry. We will be releasing "MAX Goukin Genesic Gaogaigar 1.5 Ver." this year. It is an upgraded version of "MAX Goukin Genesic Gaogaigar" released almost two years ago. And we are in the process of producing "MAX Goukin Big O" which is scheduled to be released at the end of next year or later. Hope this information helps! Best regards, Megumi Miyahara Good Smile Company / Max Factory

I hope MaxFactory doesn't multiply the price by 1.5 for the GGGG ver 1.5 re-issue! Wonder what the improvement will be.

"we will be releasing this year..." is a rather vague term, has anyone some news on the release date for the 1.5 GGGG version? or better yet, supplementary pictures from an obscure fansite

From the wiki encyclopedia : The Big O is a TV anime series produced by Sunrise, Inc. It was directed by Kazuyoshi Katayama (animation director, Giant Robo), with character and mecha designs by Keiichi Sato (original concept, Karas), and script by Chiaki J. Konaka (Serial Experiments Lain, Armitage III).
Forty years prior to the events of the series, a mysterious occurrence caused the residents of Paradigm City to lose their memories. The series follows Roger Smith, Paradigm City's top Negotiator. He provides this much needed service with the help of an android named R. Dorothy Wayneright and his butler Norman Burg. When the need arises, Roger calls upon The Big O, a giant relic from the city's history that may hold the key to its future.

Somehow this Big O reminds me of FFVIII GF summon Alexander with the castle-like appearance.

Max Factory releasing Big-O is really great news! I wonder what happened to their Max Gokin transforming Garland? I'm hoping the Max Gokin GGGG 1.5 will have major improvements Gold
