Pass. Why is Action Toys making their robots so much smaller now? I won't buy anything from AT until they release the albegas I don't think the AT Albegas is ever coming out. Ended up just being a big tease. Happy to stand corrected on that one, but convince me otherwise. |

bro this is from the Mini Gokin line its supposed to be this size, Albegas is from the upcoming DX line
im in the same boat, and i understand its very frustrating but there is nothing we can do, right now no one else is offering or hinting a new Albegas,
im not holding my breath for Bandai, even if they do it im not sure they could pull a decent one judging on the recent releases and stupid business practices
anyways last time we saw the DX Albegas was in mid 2023 so keep your hopes up, i trust AT will give us a legit gokin

Agree with most of the brands are going bigger, and I don't like that. May be that appeals to New collectors or particular ones. But to me after decades of collecting space stars to be a problem so bigger is not better. Also, I'd like to keep some scale in my collection among certain stuff so most of their new stuff won't fit.
About albegas, I will take AT or SOC or even riobot (even if they ask 90000yen like their voltron). Any of those will make my collection, I hate that after so many years of collecting I don't have a proper arbegas (my favorite mecha) in my collection. Had the dynamite action (really cool and fun but too small to fit with my other combines) and sold it to get the Big one from ET (not good really, even when I love ET stuff it feel rushed and lacked details and finishing, in fact I feel dynamite action was better) and ended up selling it (without losing any money).

I think the other solution is to move into a larger house... I find that going larger is actually better because as an older collector, its easier on the eyes being increasingly far sighted... lol In addition, with computer assisted rapid prototyping and the ability to create greater detail now on figures, the larger pieces provide a better canvas to create those details with lights, motorized movement that brings even more life into these figures. |

Groizer X is normal size. It was an older revealed figure, but you're right. |

How is the die cast on this? Is it hefty?

I have to agree with zetaking regarding the space issues. You might need to purge some of your collection bocasas .  For the amount of money that we pay for some of these toys, the larger size is what helps me justify cost. And I really do love the greater detail with the larger pieces. |

I think the figure looks amazing. But after seeing the price (especially with what BBTS wants for it) and knowing the height is only 22cm, I'll just enjoy watching Wotafa's YouTube video review instead. lol it does look good, but im not sure if i want one after the magnificent GX-40R I would love to still get a GX-40R, but I'm aware that its hit or miss with the quality of the shoulder joint breaking. I wish Bandai could reissue GX-40R with legit QC control. |

It looks really good and seems to be the most articulated Godmars out there but I'm happy with gx40r. I haven't watched godmars and don't know anything about it, just bought it because I loved its design (same with Godsigma). size seems to be its only downside, it is small for a combiner. I'll be watching wotafa's video too...
