Anyone seen the Konami Gurren Lagaan chogokin from Tengen Toppa?
It's like the Max Factory Godannar

I have source saying Gurren Lagaan will have 2nd release so it should be more resonably priced.
BTW you can check my thread and see if the SOC is priced reasonable. It's easier for me to get newer releases QUOTE(mAzTT @ Jul 23 2008, 08:13 PM) For the Hero aquarion, you can ONLY get one off of ebay from a local seller, but he prices it rather high at 800+. You're better off buying it from another international seller. For the Military / Onslaught version, you can get it off ebay too but from a seller that is not within Malaysia. The Military / Onslaught version is much more rare than the Hero aquarion, because it was never reissued, so expect the price to be higher than that of the Hero variant. The onslaught version is not just a mere repaint, the body/decorative armors are made from a different mould, it also has additional accessories. Earlier this year i saw SYIOKTOYS had a set of the Hero Aquarion, it was priced at close to 700RM. If you wanna find one form a local shop, dont get your hopes up too high. (Sorry) FOr this one, this guy is gonna cost you a BOMB. Its basically a Max Factory sub-con production. (From what i've read). If youd like the source lemme know, to lazy to find. At the moment international sellers are pricing it in upwards of RM 900-950 (without shipping). I have seen one stocked in a local shop, but that was priced close to RM 1000. That said shop is in SG.Wang, a few floors up the IT floor. I find it frustrating that its almost impossible to find SOC toys here... sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh   |

QUOTE(cjlai @ Jul 24 2008, 03:14 PM)  Also I believe like Grendizer he has some plane he can merge with? So I assume there will be a gift pack released later? |

I didn't know such a big difference in Mazinger and Great Mazinger size...
And WTF Getter Robot is so much bigger than Grendizer are you sure about this??? Added on November 11, 2008, 10:04 am QUOTE(ajis @ Nov 11 2008, 05:23 AM) damn it i want this one so badly!! but retail price is RM968++... Ayiyiyi For that price we would expect superior quality, not just about size. got the revoltech, bandai and CM's version of Patlabor only  But I will stick to Mastergrade Patlabors, they are the best so far, equally detailed and comes with flash lights too. Just it's not as big or as heavy as these Yamatos. MG RM200 (including paint job etc) vs Yamato RM968 & it's not Chogokin? This post has been edited by advocado: Nov 11 2008, 10:04 AM |

Meh I have that Mazinger Head. Bought it quite cheap didn't expect price to shoot so high now.
Now need a spare Hover Pileder it's my favourite. Anyone want to let go Getter Robot 3 in 1 Normal Color version? Added on November 12, 2008, 11:35 amAlso I don't understand why Chogokins cannot pick up in local market. In most other countries they are selling like hot pancakes. It's not like the price is so high nowadays compared to other stuff like 12", Transformers etc and the quality are pretty good. This post has been edited by advocado: Nov 12 2008, 11:35 AM |

Undici, do you know how to make those black backdrops in the Tetsujin double pack picture?
Seems the floor is really glossy and shinny type while the background is flat black. I think japanese toys use these kind of backdrop quite often. |

I saw the Volts in a Box actual thing today, the box was cool like typical MG Gundam, with a handle, but the actual robot, kinda strange.
I know they are using the old Popy paint scheme and decals, but it just looks weird, not as good looking as the picture depics. BTW forgot the 1st version can it transform into the big vehicle? |

Erm is that Patlabor Black Labour Chogokin? I don't remember any chogokin that big...
I hardly see Getter 1 Aoshima & Neo Getter, what's their price range? Isn't Bandai's Getter 1 nicer looking? |

The Getter can lightup when you close the light right? Or only for the black version?
The Mazinkaiser got so many versions i am confused. Anyone know where can get the SD Knight Gundam Chogokin? XL sold out... Saw the pictures looks really cool for a SD Gundam... This post has been edited by advocado: Jan 6 2009, 11:47 PM |

Bandai Chogokin is expensive enough. Fewture Chogokins are priced like Rolex compared to Seiko for Bandai, and Rolex tend to limit their quantity by measuring supply vs demand so the price will never drop.
People say the paint quality is exceptional but i have seen display set, they still have flaws. I never like low quantity release, but it's their choice. Boycotting Fewture FTW! |

Bro you forgot the Yamato Super Robot Line. I have the Getter Dragon it looks very nice and heavy. Slightly smaller than Bandai version but for that kind of price (under rm100) it's well worth it, but only come with extra hands and 2 Tomahawk. Regret only bought the Getter Dragon when an Uncle recommended be getting that line.
I think Bandai is more anime accurate than the Fewtures... I like originals. |

So far SIC Shadowmoon is the best looking SIC.
I still refrain myself from buying monsterlized robots. It will never end. Trying to refrain from Bandai. The prices are getting so high it's difficult to maintain. A Bandai Mazinger used to be rm180, now they keep releasing rm500+ chogokins... I'm sure the Super Robot Wars Deizengar & Horse & Daitarn 3 will be at the rm700 mark. |

Combattler & Volts weren't passing the rm500 mark back then. I remember only the Space Battle Ship Yamato is priced over rm500 (it's now worth rm1000 oh why did i choose Gaiking!), and the next expensive Chogokin is 1st edition Gaiking, which is near rm500, after that was Gren Dizer (normal) around rm300, Mazingers around rm180 & the female Mazingers around rm140.
BTW i notice my Great Mazinger 2nd version is having his knee blades sticky, it's made of rubber was wondering any of you guys have that problem? The 1st version blade chrome has faded slightly so i went and wrap them with cut out plastic bags. Also the name plates with Chrome wording, and also sticker name plates for older release have deteorated. This suxs. This post has been edited by advocado: Jan 12 2009, 05:54 PM |
