Here's a translator. babelfish.altavista.com/Copy and paste the text, and select "KOREAN to English." Just curious, what made you think this was Taiwanese? (By the way, Taiwanese don't write in Taiwanese anyway. They speak Taiwanese [and Mandarin], and write in Chinese.) |

Can't get your Taekwon V? Don't give up. Ebay is like God: miracles Do happen... ...you just never know when someone here in the US might get tired of their Taekwon V figure and sell it out of need for money or just to get rid of it for a good deal... keep faith.  zozo-Magengar |

That's simple...it's because I'm stupid! ;D I knew it was a korean site but had been reading about taiwan robot toys on another site and had a brain fart. Shame they don't mail overseas...that's rather limiting. The problem with ebay is that I've been using Ebay since they first started puting toys up and back then you wouldn't believe the bargains you could get, now everything is marked up or is selling for the exact price it is on the shelf in stores, so now I just make contacts in other countries and get them to get me what I need. I find about 60% are honest and reliable. |

Just picked up the last Jumbo 90cm, Mazinkaiser from ToyMaru, here in Korea. I also did the mods on the elbows as posted earlier. As previously mentioned in an earlier thread, this mod only took 5 mins. This was not the last one that he had, but he gave it to me for a great price. GEN1   |

Hey Mannix, Glad you like my new toy. I know that you have one already, so thanks for the comment. As far as comparisons between this one and the Gigabyte series, I would say that it is on par with just a few exceptions. As mentioned before, the face could have been detailed a tad more and a few of the details are missing as well. Thing is though, it is 95% identical to the Max Factory Mazinkaiser, less the chrome thighs of course. Here is a pic to show the exact likeness. It is so uncanny how the manufacturer pulled this mold off. I, like many others, had my doubts about purchasing this figure until I saw it in person. Even then, I still had no figure to use for reference. That is until I got home and noticed it's likeness to the MF Maz. All in all I would tell anyone who likes jumbos to get it; that is if they can get it for a reasonable amount of money. The quality is great and after the mod is done to the arms this figure really kicks @$$. Plus, he is tall as all get ;D. Well it was nice speaking with you about this figure and I hope that someone will do a review on this one in the near future. Peace, GEN1   |

Got mine today!!! Let me show it to you through my eyes...  HUGE box!!! The UPS guy looked at me funny...  Pretty decent packing, except for the Kaiser-Pilder wing, which got a little scoffed with the box.    This is going to take a little while to unwrap...  YIKES!!! Ugly elbows! Must conduct a non-intrusive alteration right now!!!  Vinyl + Heat = Instant FLEXIBILITY! No cutting involved, and absolutely no modification to the figure...  Ahhhhh, much better...  All it took was a little love - from my wife's pink hairdryer... no seriuosly, it belongs to my wife!  Even with limited articulation, this behemoth Mazinkaiser can strike some simple action poses.   Now, let me figure out how to modify the Kaiser-Pilder to make it removable... }D |
