Ok guys, I'm making a statement for the record, pleading insanity for all of us. Seriously though, we are freakin nuts! We are willing to pay insane prices for metal toy action figures, and the worst part about it is that I might as well be the captain of the ship! In fact, there I am standing at the front of the ship on top of the railing, buck naked with my little sailor's hat on and my sunglasses, pointing to the distance while smoking from a bong and singing cowboy songs. I have to admt that I love it..but we are insane. Let's hope we stay in calm waters. And less expensive waters would be nice too..

xiombarg: your statement kind of "hints" that you also finally caved and purchased a certain expensive blk. getter quite recently [Black Getter Robot Ryoma mode Fewture model] So did you? If you did, congrats, I 'm happy to have you on board ;D I'd say we're eccentric/unconventional in an often misunderstood way ;D

I did, I caved! I'm such a robot s-l-u-t!!! ;D With the going prices I wouldn't have bought it, except that I knew a Hong Kong seller who had one for an almost reasonable price (if you can call any going price for this thing "reasonable"?), and I've dealt with him several times before.. It was kind of my back door plan, but I really debated about it. For me, this is the best Getter I've seen, but originally I told myself I wasn't going to get it just out of principle because of the price, but then.. I'll tell you what did it. When I saw that you could remove his chest and face plate. That just pushed my feeble will power over the edge.

hehehe..I knew it ;D
I think we made the right choice though seeming that its limited, 1st release of its kind for Fewture Models, georgeous unique styling sculpting; super nice details, its as big as a regular godaikin, according to the review stiff joints, lots of die-cast
Since I paid lots for this i hope Fewture breaks, throws away the mold and never re-issues this thing for half what I paid. ;D
actually I think this has better bang for the buck than a "daigokin". I know its 2 different things but you can do much more with this ahd I just can't get over the styling/sculpting
I just hope this ebay transaction goes well for me the seller's in Singapore and promised to ship my item on Wed. Feb 1
I just can't wait, everyday I look at this thread and torture myself with pics and write-ups about this thing.

Well, it may not be green grass, but you still get some sort of high out of it. It's a "Zinc high" from this "toy-crack-addiction" we all have. [glow=red,2,300] Puffft....ahhh zinc....what will I ever do without you?[/glow][/font][/size][/i]

She'll be comin' round from Hong Kong when she comes She'll be comin' round from Hong Kong when she comes She'll be comin' round from Honk Kong And she ain't no vinyl King Kong She'll be comin' round from Hong Kong when she comes. I gotta' go back out to the garage before I can come up with more. What else rhymes with 'Koooong, dude?'... JWM

Man.... I didnt know so many of us kind of waited... But, to tell you the truth. I was thinking it would be somewhat of a lame duck. But, from the additional information over the months, I must say that this getter is a real awesome piece. So, cave in, hord away that stash of cash, and get off your butts to get that getter and get over the got to get the getter anticipation so you really get it and say man the getter is getting the best of me and really worth getting. Get it?

Just got an email from Andy AKA Popsalute. He said he "will ship my set in coming week as we have national chinese lunar new year". ;D I can't wait, which is probably why I check this board every day. Hoping for NEW picts or reviews! Hint Hint. Wow all that diecast for only $418.00 delivered to my front door...I'm such a F'n Geek!
