I had a good feeling about this one since I saw the first photos. I don't like how pricey these tiny Sentinel figures are. But it seems that you actually get what you pay for. In that regard I believe every collector would be having a sense of relief.
HLJ just shipped my order so I should have it by next week. Hopefully sooner.

This is just TOO WRONG! f**k. Thats my biggest gripe with it so far and Grendizer is a little bit shorter still because in this pic the neck was extended out  |

This is just TOO WRONG! f**k. It's not just the height... unfortunately this pic exposes some pretty awful proportions in general. It's legitimately stumpy and I feel like the greebled design doesn't "work" as much on this as Mazinkaiser (where if you look at the Infinity-styled HG model from Bandai they make said styling look absolutely gorgeous on it.) I'm wondering if it was designed to be so short and squat to offset the price point with the armor? If so, they shouldn't just went in, made it a head taller than mzk and msrp'd another $40. ------ At this point I wish Fewture had done a Mazinkaiser so that I can have a full squad in a build and styling that I prefer while being in relative scale to each other. |

I like what they did. Is not easy to touch a classic design and give it an update like this one. But to me the head (too small) and neck (too long) look weird in some pictures, I think that's what bother me the most. I really love what they did with spacer.
I think this line would look cool next to the infinity MBs.

I think this line would look cool next to the infinity MBs. The long neck is just an extended double joint without properly retracted back down. You can tell by comparing the pics. You see the gray parts on the neck bottom when extended, for the flight poses or Spacer. |

I agree with TJ here. I've had this in and out of my cart several times over the past week and just can't pull the trigger. I do think it looks great combined with the Spazer and love the creativity that went into the armor mode. It's just the proportions and something about the panel lines on the thighs that bug me.

Again, it is STUPID to me when toymakers do not pay attention to the official mecha specs! I informed Sentinel about this when their Riobot Grendizer was still a prototype, but... sigh!Just leave some millimeters between each one according to their official heights, I'm not askin' for meters.  So you want tiny Grendizer and even tinier Mazinkaiser. haha official mecha specs are flawed. Animation studios doesent even follow that nonsense coz they will look awful altogether on screen  |
