I am trying to collect some info to see if it is worth the cash.
Does anyone have the stats on this item (weight, height, etc.)?
Also, more pictures would be great. (Do the elbows bend? or only shoulders?)
What shops sell it? (or e-bay only?)
Any help would be awesome. ;D
Bill

I think Andrewdsz is the resident Daigokin expert around here. He probably can give you the best information.

I think Andrewdsz is the resident Daigokin expert around here. He probably can give you the best information. you made me shy chen  there're seven versions of daigokin, however the 6th and 7th versions are extremely rare, i think almost nobody on the world knows the existance of them. The first four versions came out together at december, 1999. 1st ver, dark blue version, very common, we always see it around. 2nd ver,daigokin with light blue arms/legs, and slightly different face painting. 3rd ver, toysrus ver, only 200 made( This is the rarest ver. of the first five versions),silver look, kinda white 4th ver, chromed ver, only 200 made(200, not 50 as those stupid ebayers said), as GX-06M getter training machine, electro-silver chromed. 5th version came out at the year 2000, it's the blk ver,said 200 made, however i think they made at least 500 of them. 6th version, the phroto type version which showed on the box, the arms/legs are BLK, i think only 3 had ever made on the world. 7th ver, it's the bare daigokin itself without any painting on the body, the VERY raw zinc metal daigokin. I heard the existance of it from my friend, the people in the factory bring some of the raw daigokin home before painting. You guys probably have no idea what RAW ZINC metal daigokin is, here i has a picture of a RAW ZINC METAL aoshima neo getter chogokin, it may give you guys an idea bout what it is:  However the 6th and 7th vers. are those really existed in mist, they are legendary toys that only few people on the world have ever seem it. Is the information helpful?  about the price: 1st ver: 700 2nd ver: 600 3rd ver: 2000 4th ver: 1800 5th ver:750 6th ver: damn you, tell me where u can get it im willing to pay 5000 for it 7th ver: 3000 |

Wow, I am even more confused now. I thought it was more simple than that...
I am looking for the Mazinger DaiGoKin that is roughly 3 times the size of the SoC Mazinger. I see them on e-bay for $500-$600.
What version is this?

im pretty sure the one u see is the 1st ver, with the dark blue arms/leg. In fact, you will likely only see 3 versions on ebay, and thatz the only 3 versions that you can see: dark blue version, light blue version, and the blk version. Other 4 versions are EXTREMELY RARE, EXTREMELY HARD TO FIND, the chromed version was on ebay like twice and thatz it, and the toys rus version, 6th and 7th versions has NEVER showed up on ebay, NEVER. to give you a better idea:  the one on the left is the 1st ver,dark blue ver. the one on the middle is the toysrus ver, the one on the right is the chromed ver. |

Can you buy these in stores. I am interested in one, and frankly don't care which one. I'd take the least expensive, I just want a 'big' Mazinger die cast. Are they posable?

This is not readily available at toy store. Try your luck on eBay. As for poseability, practically none.  But it is sooo cool to look at.  |

According to my supplier, the Daigokin Great Mazinger will be released this August! I will be getting one so I have a big brother for my Maz.
Where are you located? I can ask my toy supplier for you. Maybe he can help.
