ThreeZero Aphrodite A from Mazinger Z Updated

Hot on the heels of their Mazinger Z comes ThreeZero's rendition of Sayaka Yumi's famous female robot Aphrodite A! She is equipped with removable missiles and is fully articulated! Aphrodite A also has light up LED eyes! Preorders will be going up at http://www.threezerostore.com/ on September 5th, 2014. Aphrodite A will cost about $290 (including shipping). 

Aphrodite A is a giant mech originally built as a symbol for peace by Dr. Yumi from the remains of Aphrodite for geological research. Although this mech originally lacked weapons, it was later upgraded for combat with the Koushiryoku Missiles for offensive battle so that his daughter, Sayaka Yumi could pilot Aphrodite A alongside Koji Kabuto in Mazinger Z. This collectible is 15" tall with a metallic paint application that highlights the attention to detail and Threezero's signature weathering effects. The figure is fully-articulated, including the fingers, and features light-up LEDS eyes, cockpit and afterburners on her backpack. In correspondence to the upgrades she receives in the story, Aphrodite A also includes Koushiryoku Missiles that actually eject from her chest.

This is...kind of underwhelming, especially compared to the Mazinger.

Very Mecha

She's got her feminine frame and a lot more of a real mechanical look about her which is a stark contrast for the more heavy, clumsy looking Mazinger. Guess we'll just have to see the finished item!

Ok I like it. But if it's not rock'n the boob missiles them my money is staying in my pocket. Cuz I'm shallow that way.

Zero interest in this.

Zero interest in this. Mazinger is great but this thing looks daft. I'm sure with the threezero touch it'll look nice all weathered up but nah, not for me.

Totally down for this!

With threezero's Mazinger Z, and now this on the horizon - it's times like these I'm glad I don't waste valuable space and money on lesser toys.

Awesome! Just AWESOME!!!

The ThreeZero Mazinger looked like ass, and I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole. However, Threezero redeemed themselves with the Aphrodite. It looks great! I will pick her up to give my SOC DX Mazinger a very cool companion! ;)

Not sure if Aphrodite or the Mazinger Z are in scale with the DX version. Though, I cant be certain since I left my DX at home but hope to do a comparison as soon as I go back. Also, I didnt know what to think of their Mazinger Z design either and hesitantly ordered it while I was debating about selling it if I didnt like the design in person, BUT.....I must say that once I took it out of the box it surprised me, that thing is a beast and images on the internet just dont do it justice.
