In my book, SOC won all three vs. battles! Does anybody else see the Gaiking face (or rather, a random face with horn) just above Sentinel's underwears? Also, the sentinel's mid section is sooo long compared to the other three, it's like he rolled up his top and yanked down his underwear. Didn't realize the Max Factory's face is so squished! Aoshima has gummy hands.  Can't unsee that now. But if the sentinel one wasn't so expensive, I take it over the SoC. |

The torso isn't as long as it appears in those pictures. It has multiple ab crunch points and for some reason the photographer has them all bent backwards. Here it is proper:   It's almost like the piece is improperly displayed in pics to give the SoC a better comparison... go figure. |

It's even worse than I thought! |

Love the SOC's design and look the most! Wondering if I need to sell the Max Factory version or not.

Nice comaprison pics! SOC obviously has the best facesculpt followed by Aoshima. Maxfac at the bottom... he kinda looks alien-like hehe.. Sentinel's faceplate is too pointy.. suddenly reminds me of Optimus Prime  |

No offense to rioboters but my give cents worth Actually Sentinel Mazinkaiser looks like glorified Revoltech lol  but ofcourse others dig its fewture-like design and more detailed panel lines. |

i honestly like the Sentinel for its articulation and for its uniqueness, but im not going to pay over $300 for non combiner, also there is couple of alternatives in market and im still waiting for mine to arrive  |

Other companies like Sentinel and Fewture did not comply lol some buy it nonetheless.. if not they would have been bankrupt a long time ago. |

Other companies like Sentinel and Fewture did not comply lol some buy it nonetheless.. if not they would have been bankrupt a long time ago. You can't make a blanket statement like that and not look at the logistics even at a consumer level. The part count and materials used on Sentinel Mazinkaiser as well as engineering easily rivals or exceeds their Dancouga. If you argue that Dancouga deserves a higher price count due yo the combination factor which is literally giving Big Mammoth new feet and a different head, then there's a flaw. Or Fewture who's non combiners are as big as a lot of other company's combining robots while having the most diecast content of all. It's not as simple as these pists are making it out to be. |

It maybe somewhat odd..but thats what it is. and then fewture has yet to release a true combiner.. so theres a no comparison within the company itself. |

yes... like i said none applies when it comes to products outside Bandai. No... you literally wrote that the other two companies "do not comply" which means that they're just choosing not to follow the pricing routine with no reference to the logic behind said pricing (and I'm not going to touch on the inference of the implied laughter.) But that's neither here nor there and you've clarified what you've meant so it's NBD. ------------------------------------------- I forgot to write that I really like the thought of them adding a Shin Getter to their lineup as well. |

But you'll pay over $500 for ex gokin stuff? honestly TJ, i never paid that much for a figure lol and for me personally Fewture is making art not just figures, i mean they invented Shin Mazinger Zero along with other super cool robots, also you cant find other company that did Juohmaru they way they did, i dont even think Bandai can beat their juohmaru lol, unless if they do a DX version  also they give some luxurious feeling in the way the pack their figures along with ton of diecast, size of the figure and awesome accessories so i have a soft spot on Fewture gokins  |

Not even being sarcastic when I say that it's refreshing to see communication in that manner. Seriously. But you'll pay over $500 for ex gokin stuff? honestly TJ, i never paid that much for a figure lol Sorry for not having the dollar amount to the penny, but the point was that you paid more than $300, and I agree on the upsides for the line that you brought up as well as it's one of my favorites. |
