Despite his anime-accurate tiny head, Shin-G1 is really pretty nice. Still, hope Bandai make and release SRC Ryoma Getter-1 (both regular and black). As well as both Getter-2 and Getter-3, too.

Black Reideen is darn boss, tho. :hail:

Will definitely ty to get his SRC-version sometimes.

:D

Welp! My SOC-Danguard arrived today. Like, yay or something.

I'm a bit underwhelmed by the box, as compared against my other recent SOCs... :huh:

I'm not a box-whore, but it also has a minor box-damage that I'm seriously considering returning it for a replacement, tho I'm not sure if I'll get an issue-free replacement. Free shipping, but damn stupid cheap insecure packaging by the river store and possibly getting tossed around in the dumbpost truck. :angry:

Wow treatment. You are picking up some nice pieces. Might I suggest picking up SOC Dancouga and especially Baikanfu if you can. I'm a bit biased because I saw those two animes when I was a kid and I'm a big studio Ashii fan. Seriously though, those two toys are awesome.

Thanks!

Dancouga and Baikanfu are both interesting, but I haven't seen any good deal on either of them for me. I usually get only new/sealed items, but even the b-grades of these two were fetching close to US$200 minimum before shipping.

Well, guys.

Seems like I'm just not having any luck with this GX-62. Pricing-issue, box-issue, and just now, out of the box for the first time... a defect. :angry:

GX-62 looked a little funny when I first stood it up.

Thought it was just a minor misalignment, but it just wasn't minor:

Yeah. That's the right pelvic/crotch swivel-joint area. Fused or mushed. Swing/Rotate or a pull-down/pull-out attempts definitely not quite recommended, or it will most likely break/gouge the plastic further.

In contrast, the left pelvic/crotch swivel-joint looks ok and no movement-restriction. The gap is unsightly, tho (cannot be unseen):

Already reported and getting a replacement. I have to return this defective unit, tho.

This is quite an unacceptable bummer. Not sure if I'm the only gx-62 owner who's got this particular issue. :(

update:

I think the 5800y pricing is only at AE since it seems that the item is actually 4320y from the tamashii website:

"http://p-bandai.jp/tamashiiwebshouten/a0015/item-1000084367/"

4320y still is a bit on the expensive side, but a better pricing than at AE's. Hope other sites like HLJ and AmiAmi has allocation and can sell it close to the 4320y pricing.

Release is April-2014, I reckon.

The tomahawk, final tomahawk and stoner sunshine effects...... guess I have no choice but to get the addon set :lol: .
