So far all the Japanese reviews praise this release. They all love the diecast content. However, in Japan it is a P-Bandai release and rarer availability than outside Asia where it is a standard release and still available for preorder in many places. I'd say to anyone who hasn't ordered it yet to grab one before you get FOMO later.

Are they going to release Satan Goht? The way Bandai put it is "If GX-97 sells well..."

Just think how strong you will get lifting this figure up everyday. You won't even have to consciously workout. Good health benefit alone is worth it.

I did not notice before. This is the first soc that does not come in styrofoam (I have gx96 and it comes in the old styro). I wonder if it was just this release or will it become the new packaging by default for socs. I don't like styrofoam but I accept it as it seems the best way to keep gokins

That was probably GX-28. But I'm sure it's the heaviest, so it's an interesting choice nonetheless.

Looks like his retractable knee joints slips (ala GX-27 Gaiking)….also his ankle joints aren’t locked when transformed but THAT could be designed purposely to emulate directional fuselage(?)
Please Watch from 7:50 for the knee slip footage. lastly, not a huge deal but his head wobbles when the neck is extended…. But The most concerning is his knees.
“Having said that,” there’re lot to like about this figure. Despite my HUGE complaint about the proportion not being NOT being completely faithful to the source material, it looks MILES ahead of the toy this derived from.
