It seems Mazinger Z and the weapons pack together will cost as much as Great Mazinger alone.

what the?!

Bandai really wants to make money out of this set. As a collector, I think it will be more convenient if it will be sold together with the mazinger. Buying this separate will sum up the same price like the standard SOC. I dont know about this.

It sure looks good but it's

It sure looks good but it's not fair. Hopefully, Bandai supremes will think about it and sell it as a single set. Still, these new figures seem to have an amazing articulation.

Super Robot Chogokin - Mazinger Z

Judging from the photos, these super robots look like the Super 3D Show robots by Hitoshi Hayami-sensei coming to life in diecast form!

I think

I think that many people might not want all the extra bits... just the ST robot.

Does it come with two extra forearms or one? The pictures are a little confusing showing two in an action photo, but the parts layout photo shows one.

The base figure comes with

The base figure comes with one of the reinforced rocket punches, and the set adds a second, so you can double rocket punch. Although, as The Mazinger Z said, it's not exactly canon to be able to do so.
