Wow. Gordian. Didn't see that coming (unless I missed something). I don't own any of these, and don't particularly like the quality (or the price for that matter) so I may be biased, but that is the fattest rendition of Gordian that I have ever seen. Just doesn't look right... yea u did miss it alright back @ page 103

ET Is lost to me too...
Seems theres either another inferior sculptor or the management is in the way of the genius sculptor they have.... Majority of their stuff is dead on as far as sculpt especially the proporton....then there is this.
CAUTION: RANT AHEAD Please understand that the wall of text below is completely my opinion solely based on six of their figures i bought.
The thing i dont like about ETs are The price is twice is as much as it should be....they cost as much as a really nice die-cast. The complex articulation on top of the magenet is pretty much a failure because they're the ones that fails. The plastic quality is just barely better then plamo kits... All six of my ETs have a hard time standing by itself. One of Pantheroids leg actually being completely destroyed due to a factory defect.
Speaking of which, Their QC seems tobe slipping now. Apparently, Some of The Pantheroid and Junior limbs are comng off their factory glued due to undried paint being stuck at the joints. What do they do about it? they entirely gotten rid of leg joints on upcoming Toro Kikaiju....Wow. to make things bad to worse, They are ignoring and turn blind eye to their defective product. AE sent my photos clearly showing the said defects many many weeks ago with no response. On a seperate occasion, I also sent the photos with no luck.
Lastly, this is what gets me the most......despite the awesome ace sculptor , for one reason or another, proportion on some of their stuffs are really REALLY off. I just dont see how the same sculptor who made Jeegs, upcoming Getter 1 classic, and Neo Getter can all of sudden make others look so bad. Just doesnt make sense. Some of the most iconic charactors have this "Snow White puffy shoulder dress look" or buried head look... I mean they look great till you get up to "the super wide fluffy shoulders" with short throw neck....its extremely frustrating and very unfortunate because the head sculpt and other parts look the best....as in perfect!!!

CAUTION: RANT AHEAD Please understand that this is completely my opinion solely based on six of their figures i bought. in order to have a civil conversations with a great feedback we should understand people have different opinions tastes and experiences than ours you have the right to like or dislike whatever and give your honest opinion about it specially in this hobby you don't have to own the figure to give your opinion about it sometimes a 3 min review will give you every thing you wanted to know about the figure for me personally i rather wait 5 years for a company (any company) to do a robot i like in a perfect proper way and give it its justice than a company will give me an awful version of it today, but that just me

www.taghobby.com/1-0/1-1/不斷更新-2016年2月7日-wonder-festival2016冬-evolution-toys展品/Yeah, ET def seems struggling. They are expanding too fast perhaps? They really should reorganize and regroup. And while at it, Hire a customer relation guy!! Jusy One guy for Pete sake.... And most importantly, Let the guy whos doing all those aweful sculpts go...really, fire him ASAP. Hes destroying your company. The sculpt and the character license was the two things that was floating this company and they do this to themselves... WTH is up with those headless bodies? The proportion is all jacked and the neck area doesnt blend with the head..... It doesnt look right with the head in. ..out of all of them only thing that mildly interests me is ZMazinger and " the scissors head."

not sure about this one.. compared with Yutaka's version.. with the design or appearance... there wasnt much an improvement. most of all, i dunno if ET can top what Yutaka did with thier fully transforming Getter Robo Go.. i hope they do. its a shame if they cant.. coz this Yutaka Getter is more than a decade old. ![](http://thumbs.worthpoint.com/HoIYNtZl-Zqf3rMHFHl2WUNM1rI=/400x0/images/images1/1/1212/18/1_f43847bf7a9888616bafd229221ef9c5.jpg)

its alright bro we all make mistakes some times after some digging i found the figure i was talking about ![](http://i.imgur.com/00wkMo5l.jpg) i wanted to dust it off but it was kinda breakable so i left it, i knew it was a combiner even in this mode any info about it i recall i bought long ago along with couple of other robots taking a look to this guy and this new ET its like day and night, technology and manufacturing became more and more accurate

Thats a fine piece of unlicensed copy u got there S Gokin. I love the colors! we know even some vintage bootlegs also fetch attractive prices in the aftermarket... like those taiwan dairuggers and KO G1 optimus primes. but u need to clean it first though. ![(rofl)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/rofl.png)

I think your first point is the key. The issue with ET is and remains price. I happened to score their Braiger as an open box special on Amazon for $60. At $60 it is an utterly fantastic figure. Amazingly fun, good looking and tremendous value. At full MSRP $135? Fruck No!
