Such an expensive figure and Bandai doesn't even have the common courtesy of making a little Koji Kabuto for the Hover Pilder - not even molded and/or permanently attached pilot inside the aircraft. Bandai's attention to detail is really sucking these days... }\

i'm hoping the Kouji is just not pictured here. The cockpit looks like it's got very nice detail and space for Kouji to sit in. So I wouldn't be surprised if it actually does come with a Kouji. Cross your fingers!
I'm still debating whether to get this though, it's expensive for a jumbo, but it's huge with superb paintjob.

Something about the way those RocketPunches are displayed there (with their bicep triggers)... ...gives me the feeling of owning a jumbo-sized Plastic version of this figure's SOC counterpart.
Yep, it is expensive. But someday soon I hope to afford it before it goes into obscurity. For being what it is, it'll sit nicely among my other Maz stuff.

Will the Neo Jumbo Machinder line continue or will it only produce Mazinger?

At those prices, I hope they don't make any more Mazinger or Getter Robo related characters!!!

I am definitely going to buy this! ;D
I recently started collecting Mattel Shogun Warriors and I would like to see the new Neo Jumbo Machinder line produce more JM's like Raydeen, Diamos, etc.
I hope it does and I will be looking forward to future news and updates regarding this line.

That's a good question. And, furthermore- if this becomes a popular item, would this bring on the revival of the classic Jumbo age with new modern-made jumbos? zozo-Magengar Will the Neo Jumbo Machinder line continue or will it only produce Mazinger?

Here's some pics and a short video of the Rocket Punch feature. I was kinda hoping for a more powerful punch, one that could go throw walls and punch a whole through Mecha Kaiju that ring my door that or door to door Salesmen lol. ameblo.jp/digitamin/entry-10418510063.html#main

Hey, ANY Rocket-punch feature beats a blank. And judging by the video showing the Pilder being mounted, this seems to be a good size jumbo that will keep me amazed as much as my GX-01R. The sculpt in this jumbo is so friggin beautiful I could almost cry lookin at the pics! ( the last pic shows a GX-45 crammed inside the crown! LMAOF!!! ) I still want this jumbo more than anything else right now. Thanks, Chen, for the link and vids! zozo-Magengar

I feel really bitter... This jumbo Shin Mazinger is selling for about $250; I think that's pretty steep for a jumbo; and further more, it feels like someone's dangling a carrot in front of my face when I think about it: All the coolest and BEST Mazinger toys feel beyond reach for many of us who are on a budget, and for many of us who Can afford them but have difficulty getting them shipped back to the USA for whatever reason. Back to this new cool jumbo... it is beautiful. I want it. But I really don't Have to have it nor do I need it right now. I have more important things in life as my first priorities, for now. For $250, I could enjoy acquiring a couple MechaCollection RAIDEEN models (my holy grail), and a couple of extra MechaCollection Mazingers (Mazinger-Z, and Great Mazinger)... I luv those plastic models so much I still haven't started assembling my first Mazinger mechacolle (it's still sealed in its box). Back to this jumbo Shin Maz... It's so damn friggin Beautiful! I can't have it now. But at least seeing pics of it here will inspire me with something to look forward to in the future. After all, good things come to those who wait Patiently. zozo-Magengar

Magengar, more poison for you! www.toysdaily.com/discuz/thread-121414-1-1.htmlFolks in Toysdaily are all saying they want it but are afraid the wife will not be happy with such a gigantic toy at home. LOL. Can't blame the wife when HK people typically live in 500-800 SF homes with 4-5 ppl.

I truly lucked out this time around! Not only did I get the Jumbo Mazinger at a very low price in comparison to everywhere else, but I also got the EMS shipping at 50% OFF!!! I'm getting the Jumbo Mazinger and another Revoltech Grendizer shipped EMS from Amiami for only 4800 Yen (shipping)!!! That is incredible!
However, I asked Amiami to ship my Imakarum (Murakami) Registered SAL about three weeks ago and I'm still waiting for it... I don't think I'll be using the Registered SAL option again.
Oh well, at least the Jumbo Mazinger will be here early next week!
