Your Combattler looks fantastic with the new repro left arm and a couple of my custom goodies. Nice to have that better symmetry.
I am hoping my future work with Grendizer, to patch the head, toe areas, and a little work on the lower torso will continue its looks. With a little paint and fresh stickers, it should turn out to be a nice restoration job on the poor dumpster jumbo. Glad I could help you out with your jumbos.

Great job on the parts sir!!! Thank you so much!!! You're right, the parts changed my mind completely about turning him into a junker.

It'll be great when you get the Combattler stickers in, to finish him up. On Grendizer, with a fixed up head and fresh stickers for it afterwards, those should draw the attention to the main area and away for the beat up feet. Am hoping to patch them up decently when we get around to that. It is looking a whole lot better with the arms and no gaping hole in the chest.

I can't wait to get the stickers on him!! I think I'm going with the colored belt. I pulled the head off of the Grendy yesterday, I seriously think this thing was found in the trash!! It took me almost an hour to clean all the dirt out of him! His head now moves properly and after replacing the rusted solid spring, his fist now launches! For the condition that he was in, I'm amazed that he's not all scratched up. He's in surprisingly good shape!

Yes sir! Had a lot of time on my hands up until a couple of weeks ago. Now things are getting back to normal again! The wheels for the Popy Mazinger are driving me crazy! I even put a post out on FB to borrow a pair so that I could get Derik to make a mold.... No luck! I'd hate to have to buy a junker just for a set of wheels!!

Just a heads up (warning) about the Nacoral Great Mazinga..... 1/The wheel trucks on him is nothing like any other jumbo I've seen. 2/ The jumbo is shorter, and all the parts are proportionate. The arms and legs are smaller... The hands do not fit properly. Make sure if you buy one, he's complete!!
