Hi my dear robot fans! yes ... I want to get one of them , either the gx-05 gaiking or gx-05r gaiking but I can't decide .... which is better? is the defrence really worth the extra bucks? I heard that the paint job on the restile one is better than the original one! but I kinda like the paint job on the gaiking figure in the original GX-05 more .... please advise me!

Recently faced with the same dilemma, I went with the GX-05R Hong Kong version. It's the repaint with a free specially-packaged black Gaiking.

Since the GX-05 is hands down the least popular SOC ever, I would go with the cheaper price. The GX-05 was the first SOC I have ever bought. I bought it in 2001 because I loved giant robots but had just gotten married and was living with late fees I paid like 60 dollars for mine and we were happily ever after.

I personally like GX-05R just because of the darker colours, but I have GX-05 and I'm pretty content with him. As for Gaiking, I think the best version would be a mix of him from GX-05R (arms, legs,head) and GX-05B(chest), it would be all chrome and shiny .

I know what you mean Granzaser. I love my Gaiking as well - but people really complain that he is small and the focus wa on Dakyumariu (did I speel that right?). He broke a sequence of in-scale models but then again, I think this "in scale" thing is only apparent. IsnĀ“t Grenzdizer supposed to be much taller than the Great Mazinger and the Mazinger than the toy is. and also, Gaikingis 258 meters tall, That is what 1 and a 1/2 Grendizer? Would this mean a 2 feet dakyumariu to accomodate a 11" Gaiking? If you really want this, stop complaining and go buy the daigokins!
