As a veteran Gokin collector, I got today both Reideen and God Reideen.
I just love Reideen compared to the SOC version.
It feels heavier, certainly has a higher metal % and is just beatiful to pose. The transformation gimmick sucks though.
The God is the flipside, a great transformation gimmick, almost lime a SOC, however, the robot feels like a gundam model with added metal parts. I still very much like it though.
I am awaiting for mu Mazinkaiser, but so far mu preference list is:
1) Mazinger
2) Great Mazinger
3) Reideen
4) Alteisen
5) God Reideen

Here's my review for SRC Reideen and Godreideen. Love your reviews, thanks. God Reideen looks much better than I thought. The turth is, most of the photographs could not show the 'shiny' finishing surface very well.

Just opened up my SRC Yuusha Reideen which I got this afternoon. Very cool action figure, but do not display it next to the likes of the SRC Mazinger or Alteisen or you might get dissapointed with how small it looks next to them. The figure is well made, but unfortunately it does not have the amount of diecast mentioned in the reviews. The diecast content is limited to the chest, hip joints, and the back of the lower legs. But don't let that keep you from getting one... like I said, it is an awesome action figure, capable of holding poses and accessories without any problem (unlike the SOC GX-41).
But remember, chose it's display location wisely...

His forearm(or at least the weapon holder) also looks diecast, at least when I squint.

i have to agree with gt3ian, both Gear Fighter and Shinken-oh are kinda expensive for there size unless they have some kind of transformation gimmick or a lot of accessories or there a bit bigger than the previews SRC.
