Available in about 4 months..., distribution will be mainly in Europe, but DCD will carry it, so it should be easier for all to purchase. |

no love going to US?  Not really, we want to... but everytime we propose grendizer items overthere, no one takes it. Even DCD pass on all grendizer lines. So we have love to give, but usa don't want it hehe. I'm certain that it is going be easier with our MazingerZ products though. Mazinger rules |

yeah we are doing pretty good with MazingerZ in the US, as expected. the upcoming 12Inch action figure will do even better.

I have both the 60cm Grendizer and the 60cm Mazinger Z...I LOVE the Grendizer, but am having some major issues with the Mazinger. I want to like it, but I can't seem to get him to stand up without having him thrust his pelvis out at a very awkward angle. I have tried every possible combination of thigh, knee and ankle rotations, but nothing yields a natural-looking and functional stance.
Any help from anyone? Otherwise, my giant pelvic-thrust Maz will need to find a new home on eBay.

I also have the 24 inch Mazinger Z. Mine doesn't push out his "pelvis" but it has developed a substancial forward lean. I had to tie it up with fishing line just to make sure it didn't fall forward on it's face! Here is a picture - I took the first picture is when I first got the Mazinger, no lean at all:  In the second picture you can see the excessive lean, and I just took this picture today, for this post. Mind you the shelf the Mazinger is standing on is perfectly leveled. Mazinger did not lean like this when new:  I'll probably try to fix it with a hair dryer one of these days... }D |

Happened to my Marmit Getter Raider figure, which has very thin ankles. After some time, the ankles couldn't support the figure very well and it eventually fell over. It's leaning against a more stable figure at the moment. |

My pelvic-thrust Mazinger is only thrusting because he, too, has developed the forward lean. Rather than keeping him upright via fishing line, I am forced to rotate his thighs, knees and ankles such that it forces his upper body to lean backward.
Lower body leaning forward + upper body backward = pelvic thrust! He stands on his own, but looks like he's waiting for some action from Aphrodai...
Anyone have a fix?

Ok, I am travelling on business till the beginning of November, but will send photos when I get back in a month. I definitely tried all possible combinations...with the Marmit FLOSRs, I have been able to find the optimal combo for most all (except Gaiking.) The High Dream Grendizer also stands perfectly. The Mazinger just leans, and leans, and leans more with each day. I now have him lying flat on his back to prevent his falling and knocking down the other robots in my display.
If a replacement is in the future, would this be coordinated directly with HL Product, or with HLJ, from whom I purchased from?

it will be with HL Product not where you bought your mazingerZ.
I'll have to show you how look the one I have at the office though...because it does not stand like maybe what you are trying to do, up straight, the pose forms an arc. But we will figure this out by emails.
I'll be in Italy for 2 weeks, but don't worry I'll take care about this.

The breast plates have uneven surfaces. There are scratches everywhere. Horrible toy!!! |
