Easily the best Mazinkaiser figure ever produced! I really hope they follow up with a Getter Dragon! I honestly wouldn't mind a Shin Getter to complement this guy. Shin Getter G as well eh sure why not can't have enough dragon Variants when it comes to Getter

Mine shipped on the 15th from Gundamit. According to tracking it left the airport 2 days ago. I wonder why mine still shows up as a preorder when yours was actually shipped a week ago? It’s even listed as a preorder right now on Gundamit. In fact, other than you, haven’t heard anyone elae get a shipment notice. I wonder what their deal is? Why only some are getting it shipped at this point?

It might be released in batches. On the other hand, Gundamit/ShowZ did have to re-send my last order a couple of times. I'll just have to wait and see.

Any info you can share in terms of built and quality? Is it worth the money? Please let us know before we drop all that money on a figure , thanks!

Yeah, mine came in on Tuesday. I've been busy, so this is just a preliminary take on it.
The QC is perfect, so far. The diecast heft is a lot less than CCS Toys Shin Getter but more than Alphamax Grendizer. It's mostly in the skeleton. The articulation is pretty good, though probably not as good as the Rio Kaiser. But you can get it into some pretty good fighting poses, include the one-knee pose. The aesthetics of the figure help it along greatly.
The really outstanding thing about this piece is that it looks really, really cool. I mean as good as it looks on Youtube, it's even better in hand. Whenever you start lamenting the lack of diecast or this & that, you just stare at the thing & it is BADASS. Especially when you expose it's internal details.
The LEDs are a LOT brighter in person. It took me by surprise. Unfortunately it is INSANELY difficult to get the LR-41 batteries into the toy. Maybe I could've used a better tool than a nail clipper file, but whatever. They're staying there until they DIE,lol. And to top it off, the factory forgot to include them so I had to use my CCS Mazinger Zero's spares.
I haven't played with the accessories yet. The wings are freaking shiny, candy-red & polished to an extreme.
But I can't stress enough how cool this thing looks. I haven't even attached the wings yet & I'm in awe. It's got the iconic OVA proportions with just the right amount of INFINITISM look, with the panel lines.
Is it worth it? To me it is. I'm a Kaiser fan so this is a must have. If you're not, but you want, say the ultimate chogokin Mazinkaiser, you might want to wait for the Carbotix Blitzway kaiser. Some people will probably be disappointed in the lack of diecast. But one GOOD reason to get this is that it scales PERFECTLY with CCS Toys Shin Getter and Alphamax Grendizer. It's slightly taller than the Grendizer & maybe a head taller than S.Getter. The Carbotix Kaiser is a LOT taller than everything so I'm not sure that'll fit in with any of them. This one will.
I'll try & take some pictures eventually, but I'm gonna play around with it for a bit.
