Baron, I think this is the second release with the panel lines and belts. It kept getting delayed and to this date it has not been released. I was going to get it but cancelled the preorder and got the otona chogokin Shinkansen when it was on sale instead.

well to me, my expectation was more in line with the getters or the magz. The diecast is thin and light, articulations were standard and nothing to write home about. That's not very realistic. The Getters were 25000 yen each, and this is 2/3 of the price. How can the quality be the same? When i got the first Juohmaru i overpaid horribly and yes i agree it was not worth that money, mainly because of a balancing issue when standing up straight - like Getter 1 btw, the height does not help. The rest wasn't bad for 16000 yen. Also i don't think it will have the robe. The product spec on Artstorm does not mention including it. There's the belt instead. Money isn't the sole determination on quality of an item. I had my fair share of high ticket items with sub-par quality. It money is, then i would more than welcome to pay. Like i pointed out before, I wish it was on par with getters or the maz.

I keep putting this guy off because he isnt really a robot,but an android wrestler.I dunno,Im on the fence.I checked out a manga once,but I dunno,not really into it enough I guess.

I can not wait for this one since I missed the 1st release. To me this is a must since I grew up watching the show. It may look out of place with the rest of my collection, but I'm fine with that

I'm not into it, but this is one of those items that is actually 100% to scale with the anime. Unfortunately, not many Super Robots get that treatment, even if it is for an attractions park. }D

Just got it. AMAZING. One of the best pieces that I own, and the articulation is crazy:

Thx for the pix. I really wanted this but had to cancel due to too many items coming up that are somehow even higher on my priority list. Sigh. Been an expensive month.
Can I have some comparison pix with other EX gokins or SOCs?

Can I have some comparison pix with other EX gokins or SOCs? No problem... here are couple more, and I hope you get it soon cause it looks great in the display between the other robots:

Very cool!! Ive always been on the fence with this guy not because I dont think he is VERY awesome,but cuz hes like an android in appearance.He fits in all my other criteria though,he is from the early 80s which fits in my timeline,and he is vividly colored,and very diecast.How much is he,i think i fell to the wanting side of the fence!

Juohmaru was a big part of my childhood, and when I was a kid I used to always dream of the day that I have 1:1 accurate figure of him ... and man it's AMAZING. I got it from AmiAmi and the whole thing including shipping cost me $241...not bad. I just checked AmiAmi and it's sold out, but I'm sure you can still find it at another place.
