Since it’s more than initial release wonder if Mazinger would have anything new added to it like articulated fingers or Scrander.

The upper arms and thighs look small compared to forearms and legs the upper torso chest looks barrel size too. Maybe just looks stouty. But then again it’s robot not a human.
Id like to see it side by side next to Metal Works version, but right now I’m just looking at my Metal works it looks better.

My Goldlightan is light and has soft joints no ratcheting sounds last time I played around with it. It will feel like feather after holding Art Storm T28.

Yeah buddy!! Ok I was one of the spectators last year trying to figure out which one to get. If it came down to it I’d buy both ET and AT....well my AT just came in today. As others have said this is diecast dream! That smell of diecast brings back childhood memories for me.
If I knew this was going to have articulated fingers I’d for sure buy this on pre-order.
I’d give this solid 10 if the hip joints just had just little more movement There is stand for it if you wanted to pose in it more action pose. Doesn’t fit in my display cases except for my special Popy/Bandai T28 case. Feel its little top heavy for me but it’s not floppy so it’s solid for sure. As also I mentioned earlier post it’s lacking neck articulation to look up. The ET has more gimmicks if you into that and seems I can pose that more freely, better neck articulation but definitely lacking Diecast hefty feel.
AT Definitely worth the money and it’s must have.

Yeah I played that risk game with LCM to wait for next batch. Kept stringing me along I’m like give me my refund back. Once it all dried up I got lucky finding it at retail shop for $300. To me this metallic version is like must have for Even casual Voltron collector like myself. I also have Dark Voltron too. Man, you got so lucky! Did they only have one to sell? Yeah only one man. I couldn’t believe nobody didn’t buy it. I assume you from San Diego with 858? Yeah found in toy shop in Irvine.

I do love that Blue color! Some sites had it then went it order they really didn’t have it in stock.

Color variations very subtle to me. I’m gonna pass on this one. If they made hip and leg joints more articulated or some functional improvements then I could see myself buying this R version. But I don’t see any significant difference to spend money on this. Godsigma-R was waste of money For me so not going to repeat but I got that one like $200 so wasn’t that bad.
If I get dirt cheap on resale then I’ll buy it.

Even some of my vintage pieces say recommended 12 and up and modern ones say 16 and up. Hardly targeted to a “kid” . All my items are proudly displayed, I don’t touch them unless I move them around. It really comes how you display them. Display them like junk or clutter and people will perceive it as toys. All my items are in glass displayed and lit up. I joke around with my friends and wife’s friends you want to see the super robot museum. Hahaha. I’m proud to show people who visit my collection. Can u post images..i'd love to see em I just installed a new shelf today for my jumbos and waiting for my lights. I’ll post some photos and send them to you or post in collection section.

I’m probably in the minority. I’m probably only one here that went to group therapy for hoarding! Yep surround by bunch of old women who hoard but I wasn’t hoarding I had acquisition problem but my house is not full of junk from top to bottom. It was enlightening and I’m reformed now. 😛

Haha yeah I correct friends all the time too. These are not toys collectible pieces of modern art for me. Especially vintage pieces are expensive and timeless. The artwork on packaging from vintage pieces are worth buying. The photography and graphics of modern boxes as well is art to me.
