Head is off,shoulders off Im sure of it. but what are you comparing it to? ... the custom figure of Gattiger based on Energer? the anime version doesn't really have "shoulders" just some .... things The anime version looks way better! Dictator Jammy loves to stretch the figures (now their faces too) cuz it is an European style that "he" likes, which doesn't work for Japan robots. Could you please stop playing the role of his defender lawyer here just cuz he is sending you FREE or low-priced samples? We All know this, so, really please stop it. This man and his company's attitude suck BIG TIME. STOP!

They did the same to my older account and banned me cause I politely asked them if they were going to release the new MT01 head sculpt separate for the people that were stuck with the 1st one!!! They are very arrogant and unprofessional...typical French lool (They)? There is no "they". You mean "he". The pathetic toy maker CEO who thinks he can do whatever he wants disfiguring our beloved characters as he wants. Did you see the ugly 2m Grendizer he is releasing? And why is Duke Fleed running on the hand of Grendizer, (statue)? Anyway, since this is a MT thread, let us hope Mr. Sick will stop stretching our characters, he is just a manufacturer not a creator of any. P.S. Some should tell him to slow down with using the icon. It doesn't suit his age and it's not an excuse for his cheesy aggression with human beings. what statue with duke running? do you have a link of that dammage?

Im comparing it to the other parts of the toy,just anatomically speaking as an artist its not rightChest is too wide for the figures in ratio to the other body parts,head is not proportionate,and the top hat part is off as well as eyes part,just wonky.Nothing to do Tom with how its drawn differently really,its just off proportionately a bit.But I really welcome this fgigure otherwise!Bravo HLPro for making it.

To be fair there's only one anime of gattaiger and it's kinda hard to get the right proportions to him since 70's anime's tend to have bad proportions when a character is shown in different perspectives. And I'll be honest in saying that I'm not really feeling the design of the character compared to Grendy. I'm actually shocked that and feel ashamed that I didn't know of him till now and I've watched a lot of robot anime since the early 80's. Though I'll have to give it to hlpro for making a figure of him.

Baron I respect your judgement, you've got a lot of experience and figures under your belt but go back and look at those few seconds of footage in the OVA.... you don't get to see Gattiger for more than a few times and hes not dawn with a whole lot of detail by todays standards.. and when you see him during docking and undocking, he isn't much to look at... and when hes standing hes got real slumped shoulders, Gattiger wasn't a real "good looking" character to begin with. That one photo of the uncolored prototype with him just standing in a static pose... that looks about right to me, not exact of course bc that would be impossible but it does look like Gattiger. I was shown some other photos of the hands and shoulders... the open hands DO MATCH when you see them from other angles .. they are built on the same 3D model.

You see how did you talk about the toy? It's almost the same I said about it. I just said I think its head is stretched but overall it looks nice. Imagine if you get banned for just saying your point of view in a polite way to a company you spent lots of money buying its stuff. Don't tell me you won't feel offended. Plus, without the collectors' (us) opinions how they are gonna improve their products if they only listen to their own voice? Oh, why I am saying "they"...I should say "he". And add the cheesy tongue smiley as an excuse for being cheesy! Do you understand my point? It's not personal. It's professional. We are not only talking about toys here but the money we pay for them, and the policies of the companies making them. Again, I am asking you, how would you feel being banned just for the post you just made?

Even the Mazinger bible and the SRE 2008 book also shows its proportion not matching at all to what we see in the promo movie. then again he was just that, a promo video.
