gosh, I can't believe it's that time again...
Let us now nominate around three to five nominees ("preferably" ones that you handled) which I then can add them all to poll on around 12/31ish.
Then our esteemed members can cast their vote on that poll. And then finally, I can close the poll on 1/15/2024ish to reveal the Awesome RJ TOTY 2023!
Anyway, here is mine
1.CCS-Great Mazinkaizer! 2.MoShow-Ling Cage Heavy Mech 3.Sentinel-Riobot Guren Lagaan 4.Blitzway-Boss Borot(?) 5.Bandai-GX103 Kiryu 6.Sky-X Studio-Getter 1!!!
BTW, you can change your nominees till 12/15ish before the poll goes up. (lets be nice and respectful of our members' nominee choices please. This is just for our fun)

I hope it does too.
the fact that it got approved to that stage is troubling tho.
Unless this is a new trend, everyone in the approval stages is proportion blind.
This is "beyond" superhero proportion IMHO.

Thank you for the heads up Getterboi.
Sigh...I'm not even going to go there with Bandai SOC team. (Specifically, the head of that department.)
There's absolutely no excuse for this mess. It certainly isn't a budget issue.

I "THINK" I paid 399 USD MSRP on the original.
a BEAUTIFUL figure.
Hope they fixed the wing attatchment and star sword(?) Attatchment issue on this release.
(They fall off when you casually handle the figure. Displays fine tho)

1.Magnet panels 2.usb powered LED gimmick 3.damaged parts? 4.more dynamic posability

Thank you for the very detailed review! All valid. After displaying without removing the battery for around 4 years…the left chest LED is failing on mine.(I have to fiddle with the contact on the wire box to get it to work long enough for a photo or two..) But I still love mine.
I preoed Carbotix Black Getter from eKnight. $217 with free shipping (tax not included…)
BUT it has Non refundable deposit of $25.

Time for me to order some batteries now~

Just preoed Black Getter at eKnight...
I took out Getter 1 from display for "inspection"
How do I change its battery? I mean I can access it but the battery looks tobe in there pretty "securely."
I have NO idea how to remove it.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: NVM. I got it. Just GENTLY push/nudge up that metal "bar/string/strip" on top thats preventing the battery from popping out...yeah. It must be old school?
(SOUNDS pretty logical but it just feels instinctively scary and nerve wrecking since the bar looks little flimsy. Don’t want to break my $350 figure. Thought there is safer way to access it. I’m so used to spring loaded battery box)

Conjecturally speaking, I’m thinking the beautiful SKY-X Getter 1 COULD be at @ $299 IF he is at 30 cm.
My beautiful 5Pro Getter 1 is 23cm (Pretty sure I paid AROUND $300 total from BBTS)
I’ll prob get both SKY X Getter1 and 5Pro Black Getter.

Yeah, I’m def seeing a pattern…
I DO love his proportion and the face tho (One of the best if not the best…). It’s bit frustrating.
