Man... the chrome is bummin' me out with all those fingerprints. Baron, does yours have chrome as well? ET never announced a limited chrome version, just the regular color, which is what I pre-ordered, and the limited Black Version. This sucks man!  I would repaint it, but it looks too good to do that. Unfortunately, they are mostly sold out everywhere by now, and even if they were available they are not what I would call cheap enough to get a second set and repaint it properly...  }| if ou want to get rid of it I am here  I want one but I can't find it any where |

LOL... Thanks bro. But the figure is pretty awesome. Is just that it is a pain to have to clean it every time I handle it. I guess I'll have to use gloves!  . }D |

Is that a weird perspective in the photo or is Grendizer actually shorter than Great? perspective they are about same size Great is a bit taller..Great is a model by ET as you may know. |

All of them. So Mazinger Z, Great Maz, Grendy, Gaiking, the Getters and any other toy they make using that system, they're all equally sized. Bummer. |

Bummer. actually its not entirely true as joint slots are same sized but parts liek arm and leg length can be different so different heights do happen,but overall they are similar but not exact. |

True.. but, overall, heights will be pretty similar. Sure, leg length and even head shape would make a difference, but it's always small differences. Probably 1 cm at most. We'll never see Dynamite Action figures reaching the 20+ cm mark. Not that they need to, ET makes fine figures (or so I've been told) with very good sculpts. I'm just not a fan of their modus operandi... Still, they're the only ones making certain super robots at the moment. So sooner or later I'll have to buy some of their toys, until a gokin alternative is made (hopefully). |

IMO, it is the best ET Dynamite Action figure... of the ones I have of course. Strong magnetic joints, awesome sculpt, and amazing paint job. Like I mentioned before, I don't like the chrome in any of my figures, but the chrome in this ET Grendizer makes it look really nice, snd like a very high-end figure. Goes great together with the Chromed Bandai SRC, and/or the Max Factory Mazinkaiser.  }D |

Sculpts are rad, I agree. I still haven't warmed up to their magnetic-joints-for-everyone thing, but I don't own any of their figures, so I shouldn't judge them till I get my hands on one. My plan is, I'll be getting some of their figures which I'm OK with having magnetic joints (Barattack, Godam, maybe Jeeg and Albegas as well) and if I like them and I get used to the feel the toys have.. then maybe I'll consider getting more of their products. We'll see. |

my english being not very good, let the pictures speak for me ;-)   thank you man, finally a nice photo review ! I like it .. the head is clearly based on CMs Brave gokin grendizer but smaller but the size of spacer is just a joke ! he looks horrible in it ! ... they should have gone the Bandai SOC way of proportions between grendizer and spacer ... but this ... this is just a joke |

That reminds me so much of the episode when good ol' Jeremy Clarkson had to drive to work with the smallest production car in the world:  A giant in a tin can  yup, if I had one I wouldn't display it inside its spazer, that thing is laughable. Besides, it looks very good on its own. Great pics by the way! |

The Spacer proportions are anime and manga accurate. Too bad it does look like that in toy form. I'm not going to say it looks better than what Bandai, HLPro, and CMs have made, but I'm not going to say I don't like how it looks either. I think I like it. }D |

NO ... I don't think the spacer is anime accurate at all ! it might be manga accurate as drawn in some manga panels but again this toy is not the manga version!! this just look wrong !
