I really wanted to get the DX

I really wanted to get the DX SOC Aquarion even though I've never seen the show, so this might be a good substitute.

Don't sweat it.

Even for a Super Robot Show, Aquarion was pretty bland and predictable, in my opinion, with only a few really interesting moments to it's run. Other fans may disagree, but I wouldn't count it as a must-watch mecha show.

As for the toy: It LOOKS fantastic... but the stand seems to be doing all the work holding it up. Maybe it's just an incomplete prototype, but I can't recall seeing a preview shot of any other SRC that even HINTS the figure might have stability issues...

I would do terrible, terrible

I would do terrible, terrible things for a King J-Der figure that was correctly scaled to GGG.

I hope that came out right...

I wasn't trying to be difficult or mocking: I honestly WAS surprised because you guys are normally where I get my news first. Didn't mean to come off as insulting, if I did.

As noted, the Mecha is cool

As noted, the Mecha is cool looking and it made me have to see the anime...unfortunately I wish I hadnt seen the anime. Its a crappy mix mash of 2D art and crappy CG in my opinion. I really didnt care for it much.
