I find the lack of ratchet joints on this Mazinkaiser disturbing.

How much metal in that thing ? What is the weight of it ? Looks really good.

I like it a lot. Seeing the video really changed my mind. It's got some great range of movement. Look forward to seeing more.

Anyway, just a little surprised these two looks so close in terms of size. GX-75 does look pretty good. I still have some issues with some parts of the sculpt, but can't say it's a bad looking figure. For a more faithful anime/game rendition. This is definitely a big step up from the Aoshimas we had for many years in terms of appearance, and the fact its a SOC is already attractive to many. I still own the Max Factory Mazinkaiser and I have to admit, I'm not too bummed by the idea of selling it. It may be based on a pre-OVA design so at least in that term it's unique, it may be great in representation, but man, it feels so disappointing in hand. I chose it over Aoshima entirely because of the face, but I kept wanting to get the Aoshima to replace it soon afterwards, all the way until the SoC was announced. I was this close to getting the last reissue of that one, too!

Sentinel and Bandai's designs are both cool. I went with the Sentinel because I was never really excited by the look of Mazinkaiser until I saw Sentinel Mazinkaiser. I love there take on it.

Looks like this weighs in about 458g minus scrander.

Photo request; for anyone who has both this and sentinel, a fight scene between the two. Kicks, punches, weapons, etc.. I realy want to see something showing both in a dynamic fashion.

HLJ already charged me yesterday. Right now it's in storage with other items so I'll ship it next month. The reviews for this chogokin has already satisfied my decision to keep it.

I love the scale! Finally after so many years we get a pretty accurate scale! I love the Gx 75 and can't wait for mine to arrive. Sentínel looks nice but not my taste... I am sure some people love him as we do love this one 🤘🏻

Most collectors seem to display their Max Gokin Mazinkaiser with their Mazinger figures, but mine stands next to Dygenguar, Alteisen and the rest of my Super Robot Wars figures. So it's not going anywhere, unless a new, better version of that specific design comes out. The one that could lose its place to the SOC is the Aoshima version.

This picture shows the just why I dislike the SRC. It's the proportions. The shoulders forearm and feet are roughly the same size as the SoC version. Works and looks great for the SoC but just kinda oversized looking on the SRC

One of the uglier SRC....for sure. And Just its Torso is so tiny.

Lack of ratchet joints are troubling...to me too.

Lack of ratchet joints are troubling...to me too. So is this pretty much a metal build in terms of articulation and lack of ratchet joints?
