Thanks, bro! As for the shoulder boomerangs, I like this look much better... I'd rather see it This way than looking at a robot body with two empty thingyts while displaying the Harkens in action. LOL I paid $30USD for it msib condition... when it arrived it was sealed in its box good as new, so I assume it's never been played with. The box art for this specimen is among the best box arts I've ever seen in a long time. And now I'm thinking about making a custom Spazer "display stand" for him. ;D zozo-Magengar magengar, allow me to say... CONGRATULATIONS! This Grendizer has always got my attention, and you really purchased a fine action figure. Thank you for its specs too. I am now lil' bit disappointed that his shoulder boomerangs are not removable but that's not a big deal for such a great figure! Have fun with your new Dizer! P.S. how much did you pay for it (new/used)?  Good price...I am very happy for you got this wicked figure! We have a store 'Kryptonite Toys' to open soon in Egypt (actually, the owner is an RJ member and it's where I met him)...they will bring finally for the first time in Egypt, Grendizer figures (I mean all the Egyptians who got their Grendizer/Mazinger figs before, including me, used to buy 'em from outside Egypt). One of the figs I really loved on their Facebook group is that Mazinger Z... www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=31948829273 It also comes with Kabuto...  ;D 10 inch high and 20 points of articulation. |

I have that West Kenji Mazinger. Don't get your hopes up with the "articulation", it is not really articulated. The figure is basically a pre-painted vinyl model, and the articulation consists of rotating the limbs to the desired pose - which are VERY limited. I think the ankles are the only part that has fairly decent articulation as they are on a ball joint.
The Koji Kabuto figure is basically a Gashapon. However, it comes with interchangeable heads - one with the helmet on and one with the helmet off. The is no articulation on Koji.

As for the Kabuto's changeable head...now, that's COOL! |

I've always wanted a West Kenji Mazinger-Z figure... ...it's on its way out the door just like the old Banpresto Mazinger toys of the late '90s. Time to scout out at ebay and save more money. ;D Right now I can't decide between just Saving more money, getting the SRC Mazinger, or getting an acoustic guitar... ...I'm fiending to get back into jamming lately.  Fk it, all these things can Wait- I have more important things to do. I'll just keep saving money. zozo-Magengar Man, if I could cut that Koji's limbs and install red revoltech joints in the limbs (yellow revo joints for the knees) daaaaaaaamn, I'm grindin my hachet. ;D zozo-Magengar |

That.... is.... Weird.
"Episode 2"? None of the episodes have been
officially released yet.
Last weekend was just a screening viewing at
the Anime Fest in Japan. So, there's no possible way
the SKL series could've made it to the US so quickly
unless someone did a serious bootleg job at
the screening, or an insider stole some official footage
for online showing here in the US.
I'll check it out; but I certainly would advise against downloading it--
---it might be a trap by the RIAA set up to catch and shut down
torrent sites... they've been on a massive crusade going
after torrent sites and trackers these past few weeks.

They aired parts from the OVA, man!  I didn't catch it from the beginning but I loved the scene they showed and I really hate that I missed any earlier parts! I couldn't record it too because I was busy doing same van DAMME work, but recorded a short teaser in the end. I think I am gonna love this OVA and perhaps purchase the SRC ;D Although SKL is not from my Kabuto world, which I love for the sake of UFO Robo Grendizer not Mazinger ...but this SKL stands as the lone warrior mecha to me. Thanks for the link; but after a minute I just couldn't stand watching and listening to Joe, Schmoe, and Bloe yackity-Yack on and on........ I wanna watch The Episode, Not "The View". ;D zoz-Magengar |

I just watched the show (recorded) here (and starts at 0:16) www.ustream.tv/recorded/11579685 but I gotta say again, "that Kaizer SKL kicks @$$!" I want his SRC now |
