I might be in the minority here but I love that design for Getter 3

Vitas: I like it too. I want this Getter team sooo damn bad, but there is just no way I can afford it. These things actually tempt me to put up some vintage pieces for sale or trade. Maybe unload Golion or Daltanias, I don't know. But these are the only figures out there that have a hold on my imagination right now.

I probably won't buy this one, but the design is really funky. Probably the most hardcore industrial looking out of the bunch. I like it, but I'm not sure if I like it enough to justify the cost. I would like to have the whole Fewture Getter line up, but then who wouldn't? It's looking like I'm going to probably stick with Black Ryoma Getter and Getter 2, because I can't resist their awesome gokin tractor field!

I'm not a fanatical completist, but I hate having partial sets. That's why I was so delighted to get that #3 Trotter ship from diecastjunkie this month. I've had the #1 and #2 ships since the seventies. I don't even have these things out on display. The new piece went straight into storage, waiting on the day when I can expand my display capacity. That's how I'm looking at these Getters. If I can't have them all I won't buy any of them. It would drive me stark staring nuts knowing there was a missing component from the set. The shelf presence these things would have together would just be mega cool. The other thing that occurs to me with these is future value. If you're looking at stuff that might have a chance at huge appreciation these small market items would be a better bet than the Bandai issues. Just a hunch, though.

You have a good point about the shelf presence of these three JWM. Having the whole Fewture Getter team together would be an awesome display group. That's a very tempting thought. And I guess if any newer bots had some investment potential it would most likely be these three.
