I might be in the minority but I'm digging these metallic paint jobs on these bad boys. I will admit the candy red on Voltes is a shade or two darker than I'd prefer but I'll overlook it. It looks awesome overall. I love the Mazinger I ordered it,just dont care at all for the Voltes paint..and theaphrodite?whats the point?If you already have the first one,thats plenty.

So my friend was asleep at the wheel on pre-ordering Voltes V, is there another place you guys can recommend this late in the game?

at this point in time...with SoC Voltes V, finding and placing a Pre-Order is like winning in a lottery....lol, odds are really slim, unless of course your really lucky.:-)

Can't say I feel too sorry for anyone that didn't get it after that opportunity was ignored... }|

Frequency is important.

I like the metallic limbs on that Maz, the GX-01/01R shoulda been painted that way as well. That Aphrodai's dark metallic tones..... reminds me of ....like a sexy tan on July 4th! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If anyone gets these two Together, I'd like to see a pic photo of them both standing together side by side very close to one another, in a closeup shot........ Why?....... ...because...not to be nit-picky... but that pilot inside Aphrodai's head seems a lot bigger than the canopy on the Pilders for that SOC Maz. Maybe it's just my eyes buggin out. That's why it would be good to see a closeup of those two side by side. Silly me and my scales... always have to Size everything up! zozo-mag

Out of proportions. It's probably as big as the Pilder itself...

When we think about it, looking back at the episodes... Aphrodai does have a huge cockpit, because it was Fixed to the head, not a removable-type vehicle as the Pilder is.
Sayaka has to get on board through a panel door in back of Aphrodai's head. The cockpit had to be large enough to fit all that equipment which was mostly used for research and study... Aphrodai was designed as an instrument as part of the Photon Energy research. This makes me wonder, if that were the case- why build a humanoid giant robot such as Aphrodai for Photon Energy research? Why couldn't the robot have just been a vehicle or a tank of some sort?
Never mind. I'm glad she exists as a humanoid robot. Because later on in the series Koji would still have needed all the robotic help he could get to handle all those kikaiju invasions, many of them which often invaded in groups of two's and three's.

I have this pre ordered from bbts and am thinking about canceling. I don't mind the red, but this version doesn't move me. I was hoping it would look more like the 31v. I have the GX-31 and can't justify needimg/spending on this. get it....if ya dont feel like having it....sell it off here....or even ebay....im guessing it will be pretty much sold out once it relaesed....so value wise will pretty much increase in no time....but then again it all depends with outcome wheter positive or negative.... I'm still debating canceling.
