To be correct Gaiking wasn't designed by Go nagai nor the story! His involvement was as a consultant for his fame only from what I remember. .. Therefore it's rights are solely to Toei and not to dynamic planing. I don't know. I actually didn't know Go Nagai had anything to do with Gaiking until recently. I am going by this and several other sources: Written by:Sōji Yoshikawa Haruya Yamazaki Shozo Uehara Go Nagai (uncredited)Toei Animation credited the show as being based on an original idea by Kunio Nakatani, Akio Sugino and Dan Kobayashi. However, in reality the original idea was of Go Nagai. Toei deliberately took Nagai out of the credits in order to avoid the payment of royalties. Because of that, Nagai sued Toei and stopped further collaborations with Toei for a long time. The legal battle lasted more than 10 years. Nagai himself confirmed that he was the creator of Gaiking in the Comicon 2007 in Naples, Italy en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaiking#Legal_Controversy

I need to see some prototype pictures of this soon! My curiosity is killing me! LOL
On a side note do you guys think we will get a Grendizer in the Soul of Chogokin D.C. line?

I'm so amped up for this to become a reality, that I'd probably pay more than I'd normally be comfortable with for it. I'd love to see some prototype photos soon as well!

I was thinking the other day about the package, I still have to get the DX great mazinger , but if I do I think my wife will file for a divorce not because of the price but the size of the box that I will not be able to throw away !! it takes some serious space !! and mostly because of the freaking hangar. But the hangar is actually good to have ! I was thinking about saving some space by storing the actual figure in a plastic shell in the hangar during shipping ! this way we save on some space and shipping fees and still we get everything we wanted from a DX release! what do you think guys?

Excellent idea. Aside from divorce court, do what it takes to get the DX Great Mazinger!

But, the hanger only holds some of the armor - not the scrander or swords. You'll have to figure that part out.

Yes! Bandai SHOULD make use of the hanger as its packaging....
You do have something there.

as we said before, the hanger is not that important, i wish if they use something different than that dust magnet
hmmm crazy idea why they dont use the front of the dam base ? and include the 3 Spazers hangers on top just like the anime, of course they wont because it will be hard to make not to mention the dimensions

I would just be happy with an included Spazer and Double Spazer. The Spazer would be more than capable of acting as a stand and almost a hangar itself.

I would hope Grendizer would come with the Spazer as well. I don't imagine they'd package it with anything other than that though, only because the price would skyrocket, and they could sell those later if the main package proves to be a big hit.

my guessing they will tease it early 2019 and they will do a promo clip by the end of the first quarter in 2019 preorder will start in half of 2019
just like other DX releases
tho i hope they dont miss this one up, LED inside the Spazer will be an awesome thing to have

the DX Grendizer may show up at this event according to this site. www.gokin.it/2018/06/05/mostre-e-eventi-international-tokyo-toy-show-2018-nuovo-dx-soul-of-chogokin/Translation through Google. "The International Tokyo Toy Show 2018 will take place from 7 to 10 June, a trade fair in which several producers take part in the Tokyo International Exhibition Center (Tokyo Big Sight West Exhibition Hall Ariake, Koto-ku, Tokyo). Opened every year to the public in the last two days, the Tokyo Toy Show has become over the years one of the most important fairs of the year with an exhibition that includes games, soft toys, electronic gadgets, dolls and models taken from anime series. Among the most important and expected production companies is the Bandai, which in recent years has premiered its new models for the DX Soul Of Chogokin line. Will this be the occasion in which the long awaited DX Soul of Chogokin Ufo Grendizer will be presented? Waiting for the first images of the models displayed at the Tokyo Toy Show 2018 we invite you to review the projects of the next (hopefully) DX Soul of Chogokin of the Ufo Grendizer"

im fine with them showing how the work is going
but it will be a disaster if they set a release date by the end of the year
two DX SOC in one year will be a killer for most of us

Love to see the photos of this. This is one I’m waiting for. Get Ready to throw down money on this because this will be seriously expensive. This might be tipping point for some collectors price wise were you could buy yourself a new home appliance instead or this. 😂
