Hiya! My FIRST SOCs were GX-14 & GX-15 simultaneously. This was when I hardly knew they were even called Chogokin, and the meaning of this wonderful word! I opened the GX-15 first, and was a little dissapointed with the color (a little dark for my taste). I "saved" the EVA 01 for Christmas, but man, I couldn't resist and opened it end in mid November! And boy that one was cool! Eventually, EVA 02 grew on me as all the following robots have. My FAVORITE is probably Mazinger Z GX-01R & Great Mazinger GX-02R (I made a great deal towards the end of 2003 when they were almost sold out with rising prices..). They both arrived on my birthday. Boy I was lucky!! Mazinger was my early childhood hero, and a BIG hit back in the 80's here in Ecuador. Grendizer GX-04S also has grown on me, even though I never watched the show (or I don't recall it), but the amount of accesories it came with made it worth the almost $300 I paid for it..! Man, that hurts! Finally, the one that has a SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART, must be Boss Borot GX-10. I don't find him to be a terrific robot, but I received it as a Christmas 2003 gift from my girlfriend and her family. When I unwrapped it and saw the little chunky guy, I was so happy, that almost a tear came to my eyes (more than the time when I shelled out the $300 for the GX-04S, but that was not happiness!!). My GF didn't understand my hobby, and she still gave it to me despite the price. Later I realized the robot was second hand and has some minor scratches, but the intention did it for me, man... If you wonder what I got from her this Christmas, well, I got a pair of slippers and a wallet.. , but I still love her very much, I just suppose I got spoiled after that robot gift.. LOL ;D

That girl of yours sounds like a keeper ;D. Sure she is Chen! She has a sister if you want, but I can't assure if she also gives robots for Christmas, or if you'll get the slippers too.. ;D By the way, speaking of Christmas, now that the GX-01R was restocked at HLJ, I picked another one, and gave it to my cousin this year, who was a crazy Mazinger fan like myself as kids... Man, bad mistake.. He liked it so much, that now he wants to buy GX-02R, and something deep inside tells me it won't stop there.. I think I've created a monster!!
