I ordered my first custom acrylic display case for my Project BM AKIRA Kaneda's bike 5 years ago from casesforcollectibles.com and was happy with it. I'm gonna go with them again for my DX Great Maz. I'm estimating the dimensions to be 19X14X20 with the hangar doors open plus the scrander displayed on top of it. Click here for my custom acrylic display caseYes please let me know if the dimension are great for display? I might attempt to have one built around me if possible. Unless an online solution fit my need and budget.

So ... I finally broke down and ordered my self a DX great mazinger. I wanted one since it was first announced, but what stopped me from buying one was the huge space the box will take and the silly shipping price for it. 3 weeks ago I was found one for relatively cheap and two weeks later .. it is here, and all I can say is wow .... Woooow. So much love was involved in producing this gokin .. it is a master piece that keeps you in wow for the longest possible time. My only two nitpicks are the articulated hands are not on par with the quality of the rest of piece! Bandai already mastered the articulated hands with their Gaogaigar release so I don't see why they didn't design a better hand. Second problem is the oversized box ! Where am I going to store It !! If they released DX grendizer how am I going to purchase it ? And DX combattler V is coming! Should I rent a storage space out of my house ? I think Bandai should start working on making the packages smaller and smarter. It means we can buy more and pay less for shipping! The shipping box for this release was so big that my wife fit in there! !

congrats! It so beefy. And so much quality.
The box is so wastful and big. it was just awful.....the hanger for me is bad too. Bandai could have spent all that energy in to....DAMAGED PARTS(not again GGG...)
Yeah i said it again, i SAID i said it. And ill say it again till Bandai listens! The box and the the hanger i threw it away and i never looked back. Ill never miss it. Glad its gone. The hell was Bandai thinking? How many rich collectors have that much space dedicated to just one piece?
Having said that....thank you Bandai, thank you for this wonderously marvelous wonderful piece...only you could have pulled it off.

Yeah, I did my best to display it in the hangar. But it really is a dust magnet and I'm too OCD with my stuff to let that slide. Really such an impressive piece though. Pretty sure BBTS has a huge stock of it at $399. If you get on their site and add to your cart you can see they have over 23 in stock. Makes me wonder if it will drop further in price there. It's still almost $500 on Amazon.

I want to get this piece as well. I cannot have Great Maz without Z and I am not paying the aftermarket price for Z and Scrander?

I definitely need to find a case to display it with the hangar. It's still in the box, but if it's a dust magnet like everyone said, I need to protect it.

I did it like a family event where me , my wife and kids opened it and played around with it. My kids loved it and thought I am the perfect dad because I pick the best toys joking aside , the box should have been smaller by half , but the hangar in there but make it unassembled and who ever buy it can assemble it. and don't put the booklet in a separate huge box !!! I don't know where to store it!

I don't know where to store it! That's what it's all about. Unboxing gokins is the greatest joy my 8 year old son and I share. We count down the release. We anticipate them in the mail. The arrival is an event - it's an occasion. Every robot brings us closer. And, umboxing the DX Great Mazinger was incredible. My wife and 2 year old daughter were away. My Son and I made a weekend of it. I don't care how cumbersome the hangar is. My Son made a fort out of the massive BBTS shipping box. He actually fit inside it! We'll never forget it.
