According to some japanese sites, Bandai has disclosed information on GX-46 and GX-47, coming in 2009.
GX-46 ends with a 3: ○○○○○3 I'd say it's probably Daitarn 3 (ダイターン3), only other robot with a 3 besides Zambot is Gekiganger 3, but I really think it's Daitarn.
GX-47 ends with a 7... we have various options: トライダーG7 (Trider G-7) 大鉄人17 (Daitetsujin 17) レインボーセブン (Rainbow Seven) With these alternatives, I'd bet on Trider.

Actually I believe this Dai Apolon is the best unreleased sketch from Taku Sato. I would buy it for sure.

Yes, definitely. Anyway, I'd love to have a SoC release of these 4 mechas... but I really don't know if I'm prepared to buy EX Gokins of them: they're going to be tall and expensive.

I believe GX-41 is a perfect rendition of Reideen.
Yes, it's not as heavy as some of the other SoC releases, but I actually believe it was the only way to produce a balanced figure in both robot and God Bird mode.
Just consider the legs are suspended in the air in God Bird mode: there was no way to do them in metal without compomising stability.

A question about the Gold Reideen figure: is it diecast or plastic?

Here is a picture of my GX-01s; from left to right: GX-01, GX-01R+, GX-01R The following is taken without flash, so you can see the weathering paint more clearly than in the previous photos

Anyway it should be Gattaiger, not Gattiger. Gattai means combine/unite in japanese

Anyway the refund they give in Italy when the package is late is for real: it happened to me.
Same thing for a lost (or robbed package): if you can prove how much you paid for it you get a complete refund for most postal products.
...and no, I don't work for a postal office, but I do LOTS of shipments for work, and I can say Italian post is not worse than most carriers (DHL, UPS) if you use the right products.
Different thing is the customs processing for shipments outside EU: that is really slow but has little to do with the carrier itself.

I am italian and have to disagree with postal quality as it's been reported. A EMS from Italy to Europe is guaranteed to arrive in 3 working days at max. If it arrives even one day later the difference between EMS and normal airmail charges is refunded from the post office. All EMS shipments are trackable online. If the seller has used something cheaper (some products have 60 working days guaranteed delivery time!), it's only his fault. It's all here (page 28-42): www.poste.it/azienda/cartaqualita/cartaqualita.pdf

I can also confirm I bought a Devil Wing on eBay a few months ago for $138 including shipping to Europe.

I heard the rumor that the total GX-01R+ at Tamashii Nation were around 3,000.
I have no idea about the items sold from the website though.
A rough estimate could be around 4,000 - 5,000?

There are 2 Devil Wing Shin Getters: normal (all black), Kawai (black & dark brown)

It seems some Mazinger 1969 models have defective magnets on the forearms Good magnet: Bad magnet: It's probably not too difficult to fix it using glue, but I'm still very disappointed with quality control (images from a Taiwan forum)

Another closeup picture without the glow in the dark effect. I agree: finally this is a recolor that makes sense, since it was actually seen in the anime/manga.

Actually Daitarn 3 is not a combiner either.
It has 3 transformations (Daitarn 3, DaiFighter and DaiTank) but it never appears in separated form.
Even if I don't like the mecha too much, if I had to choose from that list I'd bet on God Mars.

I just changed the title from GX-40 to GX-39.
It seems Bandai decided to release Baikanfu before Raideen (now GX-40).
