Gtm. I had to go through 9 pages of angry posts to find your post. Ya stuff like that tend to get buried during height of complaints. I do see you got some likes (including mine from when you posted it).  thanks for posting and for the nice pics! Keep doing it knowing it is appreciated. |

That post with all the pics got 7 likes - how was it "completely and utterly ignored"?

GTMQ8, you got a Like from me too as soon as you posted your photos. Why do you say you were completely and utterly ignored?

I realize the defect with the broken chest plate has affected a few of you here. I know the feeling all too well even if it didn't happen with this figure, it's happened to me quite a few times (CM's Grendizer anyone?) But ...this is still a thread about SOC GX-75 Mazinkaiser right? This forum and Instagram are basically my only outlet for talking/sharing about these collectibles...and I'm sure the same can be said for the majority of you guys here. That is why it baffles me why a decent post about an undamaged Mazinkaiser with detailed photos would be completely and utterly ignored. This is not the first time this happened here but I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Are my photos bad? are they good? do you hate them? do you like them? honestly anything is better than being ignored. I do photography as well, and honestly man you've just gotta' post and move on. The beauty of digital photography is that it doesn't go anywhere so even if it's not really paid attention to today the same picture post could help someone out 5 months down the road who scrolls past it. If you're looking for general feedback on your photography, stuff like the omni-existence photography thread may be a better suited place for that as simple "likes" aren't really substantial feedback. |

Yeah I'm a long time photographer and shooting toys is just one of the many subjects I do. It goes without saying that I am not simply looking for likes as much as average feedback about the photos and/or sharing my experience with the figure. I also try to write about a figure as much as I can...like a mini review. Pros and Cons stuff like that. I've known and seen your work long enough to know that you know your stuff. I will just need to have an open mind and accept the reality of this forum. Hopefully I'll have some photos for the Omni-existence thread as well. Thanks Kuma. |

I liked your pictures too. It was just bad timing that led to the lack of comments.you did a awesome job. I wish I was that good at posing the figures like that! LOL

Some people seem to think I am looking for "likes". This is a forum and the basis of a forum is to share your opinion and discuss the subject of the thread. Seems to me like this forum recently is mostly about b*tching about stuff or nitpicking minor flaws (referring to other threads not this one). So when anyone is posting a photo of their figure or collection it gets ignored because people are too busy arguing if Mazinger's face is not anime accurate enough or Daitarn-3 is too tall. You get the point. |

All it takes is a decent camera, a backdrop and some lighting to get going. When I first started doing this I used a small IKEA lamp and a 2MP digital camera. I am so glad that technology has progressed so far so that when we get a beautiful figure like Mazinkaiser people can get creative with it. I am still waiting on reviews for it on YouTube. I know I already have the figure but I still enjoy seeing what other collectors say about it. After all..this is my one and only Mazinkaiser figure. |

This is a forum and sharing opinions and discussion is what it's about. Not likes. Oh, I see. I apologize for the inconvenience I caused you. From this point forward I will no longer Like your photos since that's not what you are looking for. |

We are so sorry that we are not more sensitive and caring about what you are looking for. And you just made this forum about b*tching about members not giving you the attention you so desperately seek here. |

Robofestivus. Clearly you're not mature enough to have an adult discussion with.

Thanks for the compliment, Mishari. That means a lot coming from you. But clearly you are doing something right - you've got 4,600+ followers on Instagram; I've got around 170. Your style is awesome a and professional. Keep it up. |

Can we please keep this as the SOUL OF CHOGOKIN - GX-75 MAZINKAISER as it should be...
Sidenote, is this thing readily available? Thinking of picking it up later down the line someday.
