Kanedas bike question

[cborn]

Hey dudes,

I am a big super robot fan, and pretty much just stick with buying toys having to do with them, but that Kaneda's bike deal looks super cool. I was just wondering how much diecast it has in it, this may be the deciding factor on me buying this toy or not. If any of you guys who already have it could let me know the heaviness value, it would be much appreciated.

It's Soul of popynica, so... ...May be very little or none diecast for it at all.

The gx-02 cyclone got no diecast at all, that i noe for sure( i have one)

There's a great review (w/ lotsa pics) @ Toyboxdx.com by toy guru drifand:

I like the bike. Heavy with good die cast content. I don't like the figure with the limited articulation. Kaneda can only sit down.

If you just want to display the bike, then go with Bandai's version. I do feel that they dropped the ball with Kaneda; he's too large for the bike and has a doltish expression. If you want to display bike and rider (and don't mind lack of diecast) go with McFarlane's version. The decals aren't accurate but you get a scaled bad-ass Kaneda with a wicked stare and removable goggles, not to mention an excellent rendition of his bike.
