I'll wait for the 3.0

I'll wait for the 3.0 release.

But that won't stop me from drooling over this EVA until 3.0 comes out in Fall 2012 (which has finally been officially confirmed)!

Ugh, really?

"Could we go deeper into the Getter universe? Maybe some side-character bad guys from all these mecha shows? Nah, eff that, let's just re-do Evangelion for the fourth time!"

My problem is, they keep

My problem is, they keep doing re-does of the same new design, yet do not feel like doing the same for the original designs. For shame.

I haven''t been keeping close

I haven''t been keeping close tabs, but haven't they remade all three Getter Robos?

I think only Getter 1 has

I think only Getter 1 has been remade so far, but that was the last revoltech made, so the others are likely to follow.

Getter Revoltechs

So far they did Getter 1, 2, and 3 from New Getter Robo; three different versions of the classic Getter 1; then Getter Dragon, Getter Ark, Getter Go, Shin Getter 1, and Neo Getter 1. There've also been limited-edition versions of SGR1, GD, and GA.

A brand new Eva design is

A brand new Eva design is welcomed, i just don't understand why Revoltech can't introduce other famous characters. Mazinger Z and Great Mazinger never got a Revoltech design, despite them being the most iconic robots in Japan. Not that we don't already have lots of Mazinger figures available, but Revoltechs have always had a special place in my heart for their articulation and ability to strike a great pose.

Bandai exclusives

I'm pretty sure that Bandai has their mitts on the Mazinger franchise and ain't ever gonna let it go now that they understand how lucrative the lower-end figure market can be. There's a reason that the "Super Robot Chogokin" line exists, after all. (And note carefully how the Mac Frontier toys aren't being done by Yamato, and how the kits aren't being done by Hasegawa...)

But, like I said, that's not to say that there aren't plenty of things available to Revoltech other than Let's Do Evangelion Again. I'd pay full price for a Getter Rekka toy. And what about some of the bad guys from Getter Robo? There's got to be at least ONE good one in there!

Well i guess that explains my

Well i guess that explains my life long question of why there's never been a Soul Of Chogokin Mazinkaiser :(. I know there's the Max Factory edition but i would love to see SOC's take on it. Oh well, we can always dream.
