Wow, I could've sworn the SOC was a lot bigger (in all aspects). I guess I need to get mine out of the crate where it's been for all these years... }D Let that SOC out!!

I have to hand it to bluefin, my DX Mazinger came with damaged packaging from Amazon. At first i didnt mind it cause i was excited with the figure and the deal I got, but the more i looked at it the more it pissed me off seeing as this was a $370 figure. So i emailed bluefin on Feb 11 and today i got my new packagin!! ;D So glad to have a NA distributor that is willing to help! And i know some people dont care about packaging but im one of those collectors that does. They sent you a box? That is a first for me! I wonder what they did with the figure... ;D }D Apparently i wasnt the only one from what they said in their email.they got the packaging straight from japan and it had never been folded into a box. It didn't come with the handle which i took from the damaged box and the slipcover didn't come with sticker advertising the 1st run manga issue.

Got mine yesterday. Poseability is good but im underwhelmed. I dont understand why bandai didnt include a crossed arm piece for the iconic pose.

Yeap, they've had it in stock for about a week. I wonder if it isn't selling very well. If it ever hits the $250 mark I'm buying another one! ;D }D Same here! BBTS screwed up by getting these in late. They were my first choice when i pre-ordered but even amazon got it before them. Now they are sitting on about 100 of them. Im waiting for the clearance to hit and im buying another one.

I got mine from amazon at $366 with no tax and $3.99 overnight shipping. ;D $366 has been the absolute lowest ive see this figure at.

Who knows, perhaps someone will find some new surprise in the DX Mazinger yet to be seen or heard. ;D Speaking of which..... has anyone found a way to hack the sound system inside the DX Maz? Such as a hardware hack: installing a stereo-out jack so you can connect it to your surround sound system to listen to the DX Mazinger's sound effects through your home stereo system? Just hinting. ;D zozo-mag I would like to find a way for the damn voice box not to turn off after a period of inactivity. That was the dumbest thing they did to this toy IMHO.

Got mine, nice figure but I think it would look better with that accessory pack. GX-34 is still king! But i cant wait to get this one. It'll be my playable gunbuster figure ;D

I wanted one with the outline but reprolabels is so sh*tty at precutting the symbols. If they looked like the con sign on MP-13 then i wouldve definitely gone with that one

Chachi, come on. It's either a SOC Grendy 2.0 or SOC Lion Voltron. Leaning towards Voltron since you can't talk about it. Regardless of what it is, I can't talk about it lol, so not being able to talk about it has no bearing on what item it will be, I also didnt mention what line its from. Let's see, we got: S.H. Figuarts S.H. MonsterArts D-Arts Figuarts Zero Super Robot Chogokin Soul of Chogokin Robot Spirits Metal Fix Figuration could be in any of those lol. You said to start saving now and the only expensive lines on that list are the SOC and MCFF. FIX Figurations are gundams, so its gotta be a new SOC.

The ones from bluefin come with that sheet that tells you how to insert the elbows. What is a bad elbow though? One that comes off with little pressure when bending the arm? Because mine wont come off with light pressure but it doesnt really seem to catch on the groves of the forearms.

Mine's still in transit. Hopefully, I get it by tomorrow. Love all your pix guys! You got a super great deal anubis20! Good thing you waited huh? Gold, super excellent review as always! Yup i was 2 seconds away from getting from betatoys but dude never responded to my email so he lost a sale there. I got lucky with amazon. My friend was actually texting him and he said he could pick it up since he was in NYC and he never responded either. They are not just gloves... They are soul of chogokin gloves! They must be worn when handlin gokin I know they are chogokin gloves... I have several of them myself. I only use them to handle the pretty Max Gokin Mazinkaiser and the GX-06M, never ever regular painted figures. The regular figures need to be handled with bare hands, you know, to give them some character. ;D }D Well this is the most expensive chogokin i have so i have to treat it with care. You are themazingerz of course you dont need any gloves
