my photos didnt really do this one justice, you gotta see it in person to belive the difference.. I could actually sell this one, thats how good it looks when its in your hand.. I got another one if anyone wants me to paint that other one for you. Its about 11in tall, very simple articulation, Im thinking of taking one and converting him to revoltech joints maybe.. anless any has a better idea please contact me

Thanks man, youd love that one if you saw it in person youd want one, the package it came in shows a Mazinger Z in this series but I cant find it anywhere, the sculpt on it is one of the best Ive seen. You know anyone whos got one of the Mazingers? Im looking to buy

I'm looking at it up close. Yes, there was a Mazinger-Z made in this same
vinyl toy line; and I have it! ;D Seriously, I do have the MZ from this line.
I can tell by the slightly bent arms at the elbows, and the texture of
the vinyl surface looks like rough matte (non-glossy).

I got mine from a trade-transaction back in early 2007 with another RJer.
Right now it's packed with most of my best hauls at my mom's house
in Puerto Rico, since almost two years ago when I thought I was ready
to relocate there.

The Mazinger-Z vinyl figure seems quite rare by this day and age...
...though, you might find one on occasion listed at eBay or Japan's eBay
(or Yahoo!Japan) by some seller in Hong Kong or somewhere else in
any of them Asian countries.

It's articulation is the same as this Getter; and its Hover Pilder is molded
inside Mazinger's crown (as a single object molded with the head).
It stands about 10" tall, give or take, I never really studied its exact height.

yeah thats the one, its real dull and the white is a crapy blue-grey, other than that the scupts are quite good in my opinion. they look like they were drawn by Go Nagai.. Ive been looking on ebay for 3 years and not one has appeared. I even requested one from a Japanese seller that I buy these Getters from and he says he hasnt seen one. I guess they all sold real well. Production is 1998 or 1999... what did you pay for yours?
