Them "milky" rocketpunch effects make Maz look like he's Jizzin from his elbows! ;D
Jizz-punch...GO! ;D
----------------------
Ok, so now we have the first super-robot lineup for this particular toyline. I really HOPE they get things Right this time. I also HOPE they'll whip out more robot favorites as well as robots which hadn't been SOC'ed yet. And, I also HOPE that they Don't start gettin into all that Remake/Repaint/Re-issue/Rehash sh*t like they've been doing with the SOC line.

They're just an inch or two smaller than your typical SOC. But hey, at today's exchange rate $28 USD is not bad at all for these specimens. I think I can afford 'em... ...I'm headin over to the State Capital and pimp my Tricks. ;D

How about some Mecha enemies? If there was every any hope of the enemies being made/issued, this seems like the line that will have them.

I'm re-looking at the pics once more... ...looks like the classic Raideen is in the mix too! DaaaAAAaaamn, my wallet's gonna have a massive head-wound of a hangover after I'm done scorin these!
On a peculiar note: the one thing I like about the Mazinger-Z specimen is the additional MZ Weapons pack... ...so, I can get the MZ now- and as an option get the Weapons pack later. Otherwise, it would probably be a little more expenzive to get the MZ and the Weapons pack all in one package. Meeeehhh, I'll get the MZ and Then get the Weapons pack immediately after; and share them with the Great Maz after I score him later on.
This whole setup kinda reminds me of the Big-O SOC... ...released some time ago, and then re-issued later with a separate Accessories pack ya gotta buy to go with it? I hope that doesn't happen with this toyline.
Yeah, Mazinger-Z had more weapons upgrades in the later episodes, as TMZ pointed out. I'd probably just make an exception and buy the "Mazinger-Z Weapons Pack II" if that were to be the case. For once, in this hobby, I'm glad to see a Mazinger-Z figure come with optional accessories to go with it... ...that would be a new thing for me since I started collecting Mazingers from my first day.

Hmmm very interesting, well for one thing I can pretty much guarantee that we'll still get regular size SOC's and that these won't replace them there just way to small, about the size of a SOC Xabungle. But it is a good thing for those who don't have the cash for SOC's and not be left out and attract younger fans. Mazinger and Great Mazinger look really good and we can pretty much expect a Grendizer, Getter Robo and so on. The SRW stuff is cool and at around 14cm if it is that size will actually look good with the other Real Mechs in the SOC line so you could mix and match. It sucks that I've been wanting a Dendoh and Ogre figure for the longest time but these are a little on the small side.
But it is a nice complimentary line to the SOC line and I'm also guessing that Bandai will use this line to gauge the popularity of future SOC figures their not to sure about.

hmmm i must say this line looks pretty good so far, they might be small but there much more affordable for those who cant get a SoC. however i got a grip with Mazinger Z and Great Mazinger. although it looks sweet with so much articulation as well for Great Mazinger i find it some what inaccurate in certain areas, for example, Mazinger Z's head, Hover Pilder and Jet Scrander all comes from Shin Mazinger Z, as for Great Mazinger the head was altered a bit to fit to Shin Mazinger style as well the Brain Condor. so my question is why they did that? why can't they have done it accurately to there tv shows. i find it also weird they made Mazinger Z's reinforcement punch to big but at same time im confuse since i see a pic that mazinger z has 2 but its gonna bring one.
this might be minor grips but those are things that bug me.

I'm not sure how deep in I'll go but I'm getting the Mazingers for sure. The SRW's look real tempting and there's GOD REIDEEEEEEEN!!!! ;D
I'm not even sure if I can make room for a Mazinger Base but I want one.
