I just read they needed to take out the batteries from the box for some reason... "We need to open the box to remove the battery in order to ship CCS Mazinger Zero For now we have already taken a few batteries out and tested the shipping method. Most items will be shipped around 6-15-2021." For what I know products with batteries or betteries themselves cannot be shipped. But I dont exactly know the reasons. I think it is because they are flammable... a battery could easily start a fire. So many shipping methods have regulations against it (it depends on the type of batteries I suppose, I remember pre ordering some limited edition ps4 controllers and could only be shipped in packs of two)

Got mine today. Comes with batteries mounted on shest plate rail + 3 extra batteries. Didn't have time to play a lot (work work work !)... It's an heavyweight gokin: 841g ! Seems to be an homerun except wrist has no external swivel to reveal palm (inside hand) and the tiny ball joints fot the skirt flaps (located behind bassin) are too small. Skirt can only stay in place with the pegs on front, snapping in the crotch side. Also neck could have more angle range: face design want to give this robot a kind of howling attitude or rage gimmick we have with EVA unit from Evangelion.
This is my second CCS gokin with Gurren Lagann and this company is beyond expectation. Good job.

This is my second CCS gokin with Gurren Lagann and this company is beyond expectation. Good job. I have had mine for a couple weeks and I have noticed that the batteries seem to die very fast. I have replaced the batteries twice now and each time they only lasted a couple of days. I don't have the lights going 24/7, the LED is off and the batteries still die. I am thinking the touch activated switch is bleeding the batteries dry somehow even when the lights are off. In a couple of days can you post if your batteries are still working? I am wondering if it is a design flaw or something specific to my figure.

Got mine from HLJ Early This Month, but it cost a huge sum to ship it as they only offering DHL now. But I have to say this is the best Figure to date.

Got my Mazinger Zero. Is it just me or this looks like an infinitism version of Maz Zero? Doesn’t it look different than the Manga?
