dont think i ever posted this here, but I splattered it all over tbdx and macrossworld... took a getter dragun jumbo, chopped a bit here, bondoed there, a sheet or two of styrene, and a whack of paint...here's the result: Used the SOC getter 1 for the design, so the head and chest details are pretty much identical. The belly gun is fully functioning, with the button on the back for launching it. Plan on adding an axe, a big ol cape, and downsizing the head spikes to one inchers as soon as i stop being lazy.

naw, this took way too much work to ever sell.
and thanks chogo....if I was more patient I would have smoothed out the chest insets a bit more. I still might paint up some thin styrene cutouts to fill the gaps.

thanks! I used the forearm launcher from a jumbo raydeen and rigged up a lever system to come out the back. I still need to make the missile for it, but i should get some time in 2 or 3 weeks to give it a shot. My plan is to get some clear, pink, sparkly dog or cat balls and chop em up to look like the getter beam.

thanks again I'm debating making a getter 2 and 3 to go with it, but don't know if I'll have the time (it takes waaaaay too long to make one). Does getter 3 ever stand up like poseidon? or is it always in truck mode (barring a leg swap with on of the other getters)...surprisingly enough, i love the characters, but have never seen the show :lol:

it's always in truck mode, the original Jumbo Getter 3 was surely the smaller I ever seen....

ah, that's what i figured...my plan was to have 3 different getter jumbos on the same shelf above my diecast getters to mirror my soc collection/unifive jumbo shelf...probably end up just getting a dragun jumbo and making a custom black getter.
and glad you like it boog! I really need to take some better pix...the glare reallly ruins it...maybe i'll go do that now.
