I'm now having second thoughts on this sentinel getter. I was at the mall yesterday and saw the soc gx-52 getter 1 and it's similarly priced to this getter. I can only buy one figure this month and I'm torn between the two now. They're nice and well-scaled together. ![:D](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/grin.png) ![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-E5jxlAbjp90/UvRNoAlTOrI/AAAAAAAAIus/M0aMrDbx5sk/s800/DSC_2900_NEF.jpg) Whoah they look good together, and it looks like they're both almost the same height. Thank you for the comparison pics. Now I'm even more torn between the two.

Fwiw, Sentinel's fat Getter-1 is scheduled to be released late next month (still open preorder on ami), so it might be better to get the Black Getter now to pair it up with fat Getter-1 later. Then hope and wait for Bandai to put/re-release the gx-52 on sale to compete. Also, Black Getter's got an awesome cape and stuff so he can be badass awesome like this: ![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-yTfxlsccgVI/Uv0aMrbA6PI/AAAAAAAAIyA/tAkAXhXgQl0/s800/DSC_3336-psl.jpg) and be silly awesome like this, too: ![8-)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/cool.png)

@baron I thought there was a cloth cape with the Sentinel Getter? Besides I love a good cape on Getter, makes him look more heroic! I meant the sentinel Red Getter,it doesnt have a cape,your deciding between the red SOC Getter one and the Sentinel Getter one right? I meant since the Red Sentinel has no cape,you dont really have to make one for the SOC if you decide to get it thats all,one has a pvc cape teh other has no cape.I get what you mean though,make matching cape for the Red Getter One either way,either one you get...to match teh black one.Mouthful LOL. CORRECTION it does have a cloth cape,just not showcased in many photos like Black getter. ![](http://c1575362.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/s/e/sent88807_1.jpg)

I wonder if sentinel will change the brass color of the elbow joints to metallic grey like they kinda hinted they would? Not that it matters too much. I already got getter 1 ordered.

I'll just need to be patient. Then again the sentinel getter is actually hard to get here but the price and metal content is what puts me off. I think the headsculpt for the sentinel black getter is good, the regular sentinel getter not so much and I actually prefer bandai's regular getter 1's head.

I also pre-ordered the Sentinel Getter-1 a while back, but I can tell you that if I could only own one, it would be the Bandai SOC version. To me, Sentinel's Getters are like the Max Factory Mazinkaiser. Very pretty to look at, but never as play-friendly as the Bandai version. And the SOC Getter-1 looks really good too, and it is definitely very articulated and posable. ![;)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/wink.png) }D

So, is Black Getter sold out everywhere? The one link to a seller that I have lists them as "sold out".. did I miss it? I think Black Getter is sold-out from non-scalper online-retailers. I think even the Red Fatty pre-order is sold-out as of today. You'll either have to wait for Sentinel to do a second-run, or take your chances with the scalpers at usual online places at 2x-2.5x (or more) pricing.

Black Getter is sold out everywhere it seems, you still might be able to get a preorder in for Getter 1 at BBTS but the price isn't really great at 134$, you might be better off hunting it down just after the release

Yes, as long as Sen-Ti-Nel does not delay its release.

A funny thing,I dont own the SOC Getter 1,I own 2 aoshima Getter 1 versions and love them.The SOC Getter 1 someday I may get,but I always pass becuase of the painted green chest parts,the aoshima see through parts are so much nicer.And now with getting the sentinel one too,also having the nice transparent chest,maybe Ill never get the SOC.But then on teh other hand,articulation wise and solidity..who knows.

You should get the SOC version. It has almost as much metal as the Aoshima and is almost as posable as the Sentinel.
