Now how about a nice, big King Exkizer and Dragon Kizer that combine.. How awesome would that be? You're not gonna get that in SRC form ever. Exkaiser's various transformations are all essentially impossible to convert to toy form and retain accurate proportions and articulation. Not to mention that the SRC is more of a budget line - things like transformations are usually ignored to allow for a lower pricepoint. There does exist a transforming figure of Great Exkaiser, but as you'll see, a LOT of sacrifices had to be made: I wouldn't expect something fully transformable. Just some simple parts forming from the two figures to combine them into one bigger figure. I think they could pull that off no problem.

I didn't have a Gaogaigar of any kind.. And a I struggled trying to decide whether I should get the SRC GGGG or the Maxfactory version... The much lower price made the SRC win out, and man, do I not regret that decision at all. Bandai really outdid themselves here, and it was easily worth every penny. Within a week I ordered all the other Brave SRC's, and pre-ordered Gaofighgar and Repli-Gaogaigar. They are without a doubt the most fun to mess around with figures that I have. GGGG is really like the first DX SRC... And I hope it becomes a trend. Now how about a nice, big King Exkizer and Dragon Kizer that combine.. How awesome would that be? Did you get Brave Express Might Gaine and J-Decker? They are awesome too! I really wish they would roll out Fighbird. The prototype was awesome

From the Tamashii Nation Akiba Showroom: These here SRCs look really nice! Look at the "white" on that armor... to me it looks either a "Metallic White" or a "Pearl" White, am I correct? That is the white metallic shade that should've been used for the limbs and waist areas on the super-robot SOCs and SRCs, in the first place. I like how it pops out in contrast to the darker armor colors; and it's easy on the eyes... ...It's not "yeah, whatever" dull like the metallic silver. And it's not "HEY YOU, BEEITCH!!!" overwhelming like that loud-ass chrome on the SRC Mazinkaiser. ...just sayin. lol zozo-mag

Hmmm... I hope Amiami doesn't adopt HLJ's EMS shipping "relaxed" policies. BTW... seems like my GFGs arrived in town early this morning. I may get them today!!! }D

HELLZ YEAH!!! One heavy SRC too! The wings are tricky to open and set in place. I scratched the clear coat of the right wing tip a little doing so. But I was way more careful with the left side and did not scratch it. Love this figure! It is really tight all over! A complete 180 degrees from the first SRC GaoGaiGar. One thing I'm not 100% happy about is the blue and silver paint. Not very anime accurate at all. But hell... It is an SRC GAOFIGHGAR!!! }D

I just went back and re-read Gold's review on the SRC Genesic GaoGaiGar. Genesic weighs 344 Grams... GaofighGar got it beat with 357 grams and now holds the title for the heaviest SRC to date!!! I LOVE THIS FIGURE!!! }D

Man I'm so glad you're enjoying yourself this much! Hopefully I'll feel the same when the SoC GGG hits the scene And thinking about it, a question came to mind: has any toy making company ever produced the full roster (or at least, the majority) of super robots from the Brave Series? Just curious
