The re-imagined Getter Dragun from "Getter Robo: Armageddon" is realized in Revoltech form!

This version of Getter Dragon is an updated version that appeared in the 1998 OVA series "Change!! Getter Robo" or "Getter Robo: Armageddon" as it is known in the west.

A lot of people, myself included, did not like Getter Robo Armageddon. I thought it was too confusing, and it was based on a continuity I was not familiar with. The opening few episodes were alright, but once the Nuclear Warheads destroyed civilization, it was all pretty much crap.

One of the redeeming aspects of the series was the opportunity to see the original Getter Robo fight against an army of mass-produced Getter Dragons. It's pretty awesome, although all of the Getter D robots get their asses handed to them.

That new version of Getter Dragon is due to get a SOC version, but Kaiyodo beat Bandai to the punch by releasing this Revoltech version.

Getter Dragon appears courtesy of HobbyLink Japan.

The Revoltech Getter Dragon is a cool little toy. Revoltech joints are all over the figure, making for a wide range of motion and poses.

Accessories include:

• two pairs of optional hands
• interchangeable head with Getter Beam
• beam effect
• Mach Wings
• boomerang Getter Tomahawk
• two Getter Tomahawks
• display base with joint arm

The optional hands include two axe-holding hands and two open hands. The open hands have a hinge in the wrist for added articulation.

The Getter Tomahawks are large and sharp. You can hold one in each hand.

To replicate the boomerang attack, Kaiyodo included a dual Getter Tomahawk that can be attached to the stand and be spun manually for visual effect.

The large Mach Wings attach to the back of the shoulders by simple pegs and are not articulated.

An alternate head is included that has an attached Getter Beam ray. It's a nice effect, and having it permanently attached to the head keeps from having small peg breakage. For added effect, a small "beam effect" part is included that replicates the effect of the beam on the landscape.

Finally, your standard Revoltech stand is included, as well as a Revoltech coin and box.

Getter Dragon looks great, and is worth getting. Get yours at HobbyLink Japan.

From "Change! Getter Robo: Sekai Saigo no Hi" (a.k.a. "Getter Robo Armageddon")

From "Change! Getter Robo: Sekai Saigo no Hi" (a.k.a. "Getter Robo Armageddon") comes Getter 1 with Full Mantle.

Getter 1 with Full Mantle is available at Anime-Export.com

Being part of the Shin Seiki Gokin line from Aoshima, you can be sure that this thing is loaded with metal. The toy weighs a ton.

This figure stands about 7” tall and made out of diecast metal and plastic.

Features include an opening cockpit, opening Getter Beam door, two Getter Tomahawks, variant open and closed hands and the large “Full Mantle” rubber cape. This version also includes a new hand with a destroyed Getter Dragon head that it can hold.

Getter 1 shares many of the same body parts as the Getter 1 (Damaged) and the Black Getter releases from Aoshima. The extending elbows and hip joints are still there allowing a great range of motion.

The back shoulder panel can be removed to reveal the intricate inner workings of Getter 1. You can also attach a large rubber cape to the back of this panel Unlike the Black Getter, this cape stays firmly in place.

To put on the full mantle, you must first remove the arms from the body, and then the head. Place the full mantle over the figure and then re-attach the head. The arms do not go back on in this mode.

One flaw worth mentioning is the neck articulation. It really can't turn much. This is due to the square shape of the bottom of the neck - when it turns it hits the shoulder shrouds and pops it off.

The full mantle looks good, but you really can’t do anything in this mode. It’s a neat accessory, but I don’t know if its worth getting if you already have a Aoshima Getter 1. If you don’t then this is a good place to start.

Getter 1 is seen here posed against Kotobukiya’s Mechanical Chain Base series of model kit display stands.

The damaged Getter 1 replicates the final scene in the OVA and Manga, where the Getter Core is ripped out and exposed! This is a limited edition, EXCLUSIVE item from Anime-Export.

The damaged Getter 1 replicates the final scene in the OVA and Manga, where the Getter Core is ripped out and exposed! This is a limited edition, EXCLUSIVE item from Anime-Export.

Anime-Export is one of the lucky few retailers that has had the opportunity to do exclusive versions of Aoshima toys. For this release, they took the standard Getter 1 (from the new-ish Getter OVA) and decided to replicate the final scene in the series.

Here are some of the features, as described by Anime-Export (hey, why reinvent the wheel?):

"1 - For the first time an Aoshima Shin Seiki Gohkin product will be equipped with interchangeable parts. Two different left arms are included in the box, one of them is the damaged one as seen in the OVA and the manga to reproduce all the Getter poses in its final moments.

2 - Glow in the dark parts (to give the radioactive feeling): chest, Getter Core and the hole in the chest. For the hole in the chest we had to spray the glow in the dark paint instead of injecting it, we can assure you that the final result is GREAT.

3 - The Getter Core is made by a new material to allow the glow in the dark effect and needed to be partially re-sculpted. Tubes were also added.

4 - New accessories: beside the interchangeable left arm, the new Getter Core and the standard set of spare hands (six in total) a new hand to hold the Getter Core has been added, the two Getter Tomahawk are painted in a new weathering style and an exclusive bonus figure of Musashi Tomoe that is the solely Getter pilot in this final battle.

Production quantity: This item will be produced only in 1500 pieces, each one of them will have a sticker with the serial number on it (ex. 0001/1500) to certify the limited production run.

Paint: we took so long to put this item in production because of the huge paint-job required. We have been turned down two times by the factory that told us that this model was "undo-able". Finally we studied a new paint-job system and we were allowed to start the production. A normal item is usually completed after 30 to 40 paint steps, for this one over 180 were required... It was a huge task and we really hope you will appreciate it. As for now we can officially declare that there won't be any reissue, recolor or anything else after the first production run (that is common on Anime-Export products by the way) due to the huge costs required for the production.

It is a one-shot item and we consider it our masterpiece so far.. get it now!"

Getter 1 comes in a great color box with full color renderings on the front and back. The sticker denoting the number is on the front.

The paint detail on this damaged version is really nice - it looks like it has been beat to hell. In some places you can actually see brush strokes, but i really don't mind. Its clear a lot of work went into the paint on this. And it really is damaged. The head is missing one of its spikes, and the chest has the guts of Getter 1 spilling out.

Two Getter Tomahawks are included, and the hands to hold them both.

The elbows have that extending elbow gimmick that Aoshima is famous for.

From the back, there are plenty of exposed screw holes. I wish these were covered up, but it does give the toy that old school feel.

The left arm is removable, and you can replace it with a "stump" of sorts. The stump has glow paint on the tips of the wires.

To replicate the final moments of Getter 1, You need to change the right hand to an open hand, and attach the getter core to the damaged chest section.

Turn the lights out, because this thing glows!

Not only do does the Getter Core glow, but so do the eyes, chest panel, wire tips... it is really stunning in the dark.

Included with the Getter 1 is a small figurine of Musashi Tomoe, the sole pilot at the demise of Getter Robo.

I know people tend to shy away from repaints, but I assure you, this is no ordinary repaint. This is almost an entirely new toy, and definitely worth having in your chogokin collection.

The only place you can get your Damaged Getter 1 is at Anime-Export.

Shin Getter 2 (Anime-Export Weathered Version) improves on an already fantastic piece.

We've already covered the regular version of the Shin Seiki Gokin Shin Getter 2, but this is the Weathered Version, and in my opinion, far superior.

Jump to video

The Weathered Version Shin Getter 2 is an Anime-Export exclusive. Anime-Export has an arrangement with Aoshima where they can do exclusive versions of their die-cast toys. And what is cool is that they are not just simple repaints - This toy has amazing detail.

All the parts have been weathered in some way. The gloss white finish has been replaced with a matte finish, with faded grey weathering all over the figure. Although the toy is 90% diecast, the plastic has been weathered as well.

I won't go over all the finer points of the figure itself, that was covered well in Sanjeev's review. But I will say that this is a fantastic figure. I am just blown away with how cool it is. I thought the thing would have trouble standing up but its really solid. Aoshima has included a couple stands that support the drill and the figure, but you don't actually need them.

The arms and legs have that Aoshima extending joint thing, which works really well with this release. The drill arm has a rotating spiked band, and the other arm features an articulated claw.

The toy comes with a variant drill arm that can actually fire an all plastic version of the drill. The drill arm that does not fire is a solid piece of sharp metal.

Also included is a mini figure of Hayato, the pilot of Shin Getter 2.

Shin Getter 2 (Anime-Export Weathered Version) is a really really nice piece. there's just nothing wrong with it and would be a great addition to any gokin collection. You can get yours at Anime-Export.com. It's limited to 1500 peices, so get one before they are gone.

Gads...Sanjeev's reviewing an actual Japanese robot toy! ;)

Courtesy of HobbyLink Japan, we bring you Aoshima/Miracle House's Shin Getter 2!

Well, it took about seven years and almost 20 SG's to get around to it...but Getter Robo Armageddon fans finally have the next edition of the ultimate machine, Shin Getter 2. Brought to us by HobbyLink Japan, Shin Getter 2's primary feature is no different from the other super robots of the Shin Seiki Gokin line: gobs and gobs of lickable diecast metal! Yup, this thing's a heavyweight, despite it's shrimpy anatomy.

First, let's start with the packaging.

Y'know, it's very easy to overlook packaging when it comes to toys--especially new ones. With vintage toys, one is almost obliged to take it all in--to enjoy every square inch of printed graphics. By the very nature of "vintage", it is rare and limited, so every part of the toy experience becomes special. Not so with new toys. So many new toys' packaging is taken for granted and not shown the same sort of respect given to vintage toys. Afterall, new toys aren't often particularly hard to get or limited in any way. That lack of respect is a shame, too, because some of these boxes are great!

One thing that's always impressed me about Aoshima's super robot offerings was the care shown in developing the packaging. The front of the box features a photo of the toy in the foreground, with a drawing of the robot in the background. Nothing too ground-breaking here--especially since such a layout is fairly common in modern toys--but the simplicity of the formula really works with this toy.

The back of the box features images of the toy, showing off its considerable diecast content and gimmicks. The layout of the back isn't as impressive as the front, but it's good 'nuff.

Upon opening the box, the collector is treated to the only packaging material worthy of heroic chogokin: styrofoam. Okay, there are probably plenty of cogent arguments against the use of styrofoam for environmental reasons, but lemme tell ya, this pretty much beats the dogsnot outta any SoC packaging. The plastic trays we’ve grown accustomed to with most modern toys are just throw-away items, lacking any thoughtfulness or creativity. They just add to the clutter. Aoshima takes us back to the old-school with squeaky styrofoam coffins to house your lustrous, glossy gokin.

Once you’ve freed Shin Getter 2 from its tray, you have a decent, solid figure. The heft is impressive for the robot’s slender physique (remember, check out the back of the box to see what parts are diecast). The head is PVC and the firing drill, claw, and red jets on the back are all plastic.

The sharp bits on the design are hard plastic and are very sharp! No, I’m not afraid of breaking them...I’m afraid of drawing blood! Also one detail of note: the translucent red plastic over the sculpted internal machine bits on the chest is WAY too dark to get a decent view of the stuff underneath...just a minor gripe.

Okay...so, how do the joints hold up?

The answer is meh. Not horrible, mind you...just not particularly great. The ankles are ball-n-socket joints and the hips have a similar range of movement. The knees rotate and bend as expected. All of these joints are okay in terms of tightness. They seem to hold up to a decent amount of posing...but it’s tough to tell if they’ll always remain this way. If they ever wear down and their strength is ever compromised, the whole toy’s boned. There’s just too much weight up top.

Notice that I had to stand Shin Getter 2 on a CD case in some of my pics. My light tent sits on top of a padded card table--way too mushy for this toy to balance solidly in the pose above. This annoyed me at first...but then again, that is a precarious position! As long as the toy’s on a hard, flat surface, it’s all good.

Moving on up, we have the love-em or hate-em classic Aoshima extending elbows! If you’re at all familiar with Mazinkaiser, Getter 1, or some of their other super robots, the actual elbow joints need to be exposed by pulling down on the forearms.

Hey, works for me--and these joints are extremely tight. The left-hand claw is nicely articulated; again, nice and tight. And next, we have the shoulders. These really impressed me: finally, we have actual detents. The detents are big, so we don’t get a super-wide range of motion, but they certainly get the job done. The toy comes with a small silver stand to help support the weight of the right-hand drill arm. I don’t have it pictured anywhere because you’ll never need it! The detents in the shoulders are super-strong--they won't droop even though the drill is diecast!

Lastly, the PVC head sits atop a ball joint. A few more points about articulation...first, the shoulder, while having detents when swinging front to back, actually don’t have any detents when swinging out to the side. Just a friction joint here that has mediocre strength. Next, Shin Getter 2’s red jets on his back are jointed...kind of a nice touch. And lastly, there’s no waist joint. Kind of an odd omission. Oh well.

Next up, we have gimmicks. Well...not much to say here...unless you count the awesome diecast content as a "gimmick"! ;)

Okay...there IS one thing: the drill missile. Again, if you’re familiar with Aoshima’s previous Mazinkaiser offering, you know about the pathetic turbo smasher punch. Basically, you can remove the arms (at the shoulders) and replace them with shooty arms, featuring a gimmick where you basically screw the forearms on to store up rotational energy. When you hit the firing button, the forearms spin really fast as they shoot off...about 4 inches. Yeah. Sucks.

Well, guess what! Shin Getter 2’s drill missile is NO different! You still replace the whole arm, screw in the drill missile, then let 'er rip...about 4 inches. *Sigh*

That accessory’s staying boxed away.

...Which brings us to our last category: accessories! Besides the aforementioned drill missile arm, the toy comes with two stands. The one I noted earlier for supporting the drill arm just isn’t necessary at all. The other one, however, is kinda neat. It fits right up in the robot’s crotch to help it keep balance on your shelf. Yeah, I know it looks uncomfortable, but it’s actually kinda cool. First, it’s a two-part, spring-loaded stand. The top half of the stand can be pushed into the wider bottom half, allowing for more dynamic posing of the toy, while still exerting a decent amount of pressure on his...cyber-prostate...to keep him upright! Also, the stand is actually magnetic so that it actually sticks...all up in there. Poor robot.

Lastly, we have a little, miserably-painted PVC figurine of Hayato, the main Shin Getter 2 pilot from the anime. The sculpt is mushy and lacks definition and the paint application is pretty awful...but really, who cares? Of everyone I know who has any of these toys, none of them even bothers displaying these figurines. ...I’m sure maybe someone, somewhere, gives a crap...

So, in the final analysis, we have a gorgeous toy, well in keeping with the look of the first Shin Getter 1 figure. The joints are subpar, and even a perhaps bit worrisome. Strong, fine detents--like in the Fewture Mazinger toy--would have been welcome in all the major joints of this figure because of its awkward distribution of weight. Still, it’s a good toy...at least alongside it’s more famous brother. And more importantly: this could be a sign that Aoshima is going to make a Shin Getter 3 to complete the set! And let's hope for some heavy diecast Get Machines, too!

Here's a quick vid showing just how stable this guy is...plus dramatic footage of the awe-inspiring drill missile gimmick! ;)

So...not everyone’s cup of tea, but if you’re a Getter fan, you pretty much need this, as there aren’t many quality toys of the secondary Getter robots. Get yours today from HLJ!

Gotta Get this Getter, G!

I’ve always felt that this Getter design was a reaction to the heavy Spawn craze in Japan in the early 90s. Toy collecting was not a huge deal in Japan, at least, not outside of hardcore Otaku. But when the Spawn figures hit, a whole new wave began. People started collecting toys again, and the Spawn aesthetic slowly infiltrated Japanese toys. Its influence can be seen to this day in toy lines like S.I.C. (Super Imaginative Chogokin). I can see this influence in the design of Shin Getter 1, from the large black wings to the exaggerated forearm blades.

Shin Getter Robo First made its appearance in a 1993 Manga called Getter Robo Go, but didn’t become animated until 1998’s Change!! Getter Robo (Released as Getter Robo Armageddon). The new modern design gained Getter Robo a whole new legion of fans, while alienating some fans of the original 1970s show.

The design has been made into toy form many times in the past, most notable is the Aoshima / Miracle House version. This diecast monstrosity is practically a weapon, with loads of diecast and sharp details. Howver, with its hefty price tag, this toy is not for everyone.

Kaiyodo throws its hat into the ring with a Revoltech version of the Shin Getter Robo, available from HobbyLink Japan. How does Shin Getter transition to the Revoltech format? Let’s find out.

Shin Getter features a stunning 44 points of articulation made up of a combination of Revoltech joints and traditional cut joints. The large purple wings are connected to the body with Revoltech joints and ship unattached. Other accessories include a 2-piece Getter Tomahawk, Stoner Sun Shine effect parts, four extra hands and a display base.

Articulation is really great, but it is one of those toys that seems impossible to do a neutral pose with. The feet are connected in such a a way that it makes it all but impossible to make him stand up straight. I guess that’s what the stand is there for, might as well use it.

The Getter Tomahawk is large and all plastic. It comes shipped in two pieces and you have to put it together. Shin Getter comes with optional hands so you can hold the tomahawk with one or two hands.

The Stoner Sun Shine is an energy weapon that manifests out of Shin Getter’s palm. Included is a special hand with a hole in it to attach the energy ball to, and then the blast part of the energy attaches to that.

Pay careful attention around the sharp points of this toy. The wing tips and arm blades are very sharp and made out of hard plastic. You could definitely puncture skin with them.

The display stand is your typical Revoltech stand – three parts and a Revoltech joint. The joint attaches at the back of the figure so you can put Shin Getter into flying poses.

In all, it’s a pretty cool figure. I know a lot of you collectors already have a few Shin Getter designs in your collection, but if you are a fan, you should definitely check this one out.

Shin Getter Revoltech is available at HobbyLink Japan.

The Revoltech Black Getter is basically a remolded Getter Robo with some extra accessories. The chest, upper arms and upper legs are identical. Black Getter sports a new head, hands accessories and color scheme. Make no mistake though, Black Getter is the superior toy.

Black Getter is piloted by Ryoma Nagare. In the Shin Getter anime, Ryoma is on the moon, and creates the Black Getter out of an abandoned Getter Robo machine found there. Ryoma made several improvements to the Getter design, and the robot can now be piloted by one person instead of 3. Unfortunately, Black Getter can no longer split apart into the three getter ships, but he more than makes up for it with his advanced firepower.

The Revoltech Black Getter is basically a remolded Getter Robo with some extra accessories. The chest, upper arms and upper legs are identical. Black getter sports a new head, hands, accessories and color scheme.

Revoltech 035 Black Getter OVA Ver. Is available from HobbyLink Japan

Included accessories are:

• 44 Magnum Shikishima SP
• Strike Gun
• two Getter Tomahawks
• shell holder
• ammo clips
• Getter Wing
• three pairs of optional hands
• display base with a joint arm

Black Getter is of course fully poseable with 30 points or articulation. The design of the feet make getting him to stand on his own tricky, but the included stand makes this a non-issue. Black Getter can easily hold his weapons in either hand.

One set of hands includes the notorious spiked knuckles. Unfortunately, my Black Getter came with 2 right hands! Fortunately I got mine at HobbyLink Japan and they said that if anyone ever has a problem like this to contact them, and they will get the replacement part from the manufacturer and send it to you, free of charge.

Black Getter is an awesome Revoltech - a must-have!

It's official, I have completely lost track of the Getter Robots.

It's official, I have completely lost track of the Getter Robots.

For those of you playing along at home, we have:

• Getter Robo
• Getter Robo G
• Getter Robo Go
• Shin Getter Robo
• Neo Getter
• New Getter Robo
• Black Getter

And now we have this Getter Robo, which I believe is called "New (Change!!) Getter Robo." I haven't seen a Getter anime since Getter Robo: Armageddon, and that melted my brain. This is likely the robot from "New Getter Robo", released in 2004, but who can tell anymore?

Regardless of its origins, Getter 1 is one of the latest releases in the popular Revoltech franchise. Fans have been waiting for the classic super robots to be part of the Revoltech line, but we keep getting teased with the new versions of the old characters. Getter 1 is the closest we have gotten so far. It's not a bad figure, but it's not breaking any new ground.

Getter 1 comes courtesy of HobbyLink Japan

Getter 1 features 16 points of articulation - 10 of which are Revoltech joints. Kaiyodo made some odd choices here in terms of which joints got the revolver joints. For example - those round red shoulders seem to cry out for revoltech joints, but instead are 2 monoshaft joints. There's no swiveling waist joint, but there is a chest joint. The neck you would think would use the dual Revoltech joint, but only uses one (and it's kind of loose).

In terms of accessories, Getter 1 comes with:

• Getter Machine Guns x2
• Getter Tomahawk x2
• Getter Wing
• Open Hands x2
• Gun Holding Hands x3
• Knuckle Hand
• Flat Hand
• Stand (4 pcs)

The Getter Machine guns and Getter Tomahawks fit snugly into the hands. The guns have some nice detail and look menacing.

I found the Getter Wing a bit confusing - there are no instructions as to how to attach it to the figure, and the box art isn't clear. After some playing around I figured out that it basically wedges itself to the back of the shoulder armor.

I was also left clueless about the knuckle fist and flat hand. The knuckle fist is just that - a closed fist with one knuckle out farther than the others. No where does it describe what these are for. Perhaps If I had seen the anime?

And what is up with the two holes on the back - is there any purpose for those? Maybe they get used in the black getter sculpt? They distract from an otherwise beautiful figure.

Make no mistake, Getter 1 is a nice toy. Good quality, good articulation, good play value. It just leaves me scratching my head a little trying to figure out some of the decisions they made. Perhaps I am too critical... The casual fan, and the Getter Robo collector should really dig this figure. You get get your very own at HobbyLink Japan.

If you are getting the Getters, you gotta get Getter 2!

Shin Getter 2 comes from the most recent Getter Robo series, New Getter Robo (Shin Getta Robo 新・ゲッターロボ), created by Jun Kawagoe. In this series all the Getter Robo combinations get another makeover, updating them to modern times while still keeping the getter aesthetic.

The Revoltech Series No. 08 Super Robot Type Shin Getter 2 (リボルテックシリーズNo.08 スーパーロボタイプ新ゲッター2) is the second Revoltech figure released from Shin Getter Robo. It’s a character you don’t see too often in toy form, and it is a joy to have it as part of the Revoltech Series.

Getter 2 is built for speed, and it is evident in the design. Clean lines and a sleek profile help Getter 2 scream through the sky.

In regards to Revoltech joints, this figure has 12 joints in it and one on the stand, for a total of 13 joints.

Getter 2 has no accessories aside from a stand. But when you have a giant drill for one hand and a giant claw for another, do you really need any? The claw hand rotates and each claw is articulated. The drill moves, and is sharp as hell.

Not much else to say about this one, it’s awesome looking, and if you are getting the Getters, you gotta get Getter 2!

Instead of legs, the Getter 3 has three treads to move around on. While the treads here are just solid molded plastic, the Revoltech joints add in an extra level of articulation that you wouldn’t expect with a figure like this.

How many different Getter Robo series are there now? For most of us old-school fans there is only Getter Robo and Getter Robo G (aka Starvengers from Force 5). There have been several incarnations of Getter Robo since then, including Shin Getter, New Getter, Neo Getter… The list goes on. And with all these new anime series we have also gotten new toys. The thing is, all of the toys have been of the same. Damn. Character.

Getter 1.

Well, the cool cats at Kaiyodo have done what we have waited so long for – they made toys of the other Getters! The Revoltech series has not only done Getter 1 from New Getter Robo, but they have made Getter 2 and 3 as well! It’s about time those other Getter modes got some love.

The Getter 3 Revoltech toy is a really unique thing.

リボルテックシリーズNo.017 スーパーロボタイプ 新ゲッター3
Revoltech Series No. 017 Super Robot Type Shin Getter 3

Instead of legs, the Getter 3 has three treads to move around on. While the treads here are just solid molded plastic, the Revoltech joints add in an extra level of articulation that you wouldn’t expect with a figure like this.

Getter 3 has 12 or 14 Revoltech joints, depending on how he is displayed. The head, chest, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and feet all have Revoltech joints.

In terms of accessories, Getter 3 does not have many, but what it has is pretty cool. The figure comes with one set of extra hands, and additional arm sections. You can add the arm section at the shoulder and it gives the appearance that Getter 3 can stretch his arms out to great lengths. This also gives the figure two extra Revoltech joints, hence the 14 joints.

The legs are pretty interesting. The rear leg is fixed and attached to the body, and acts as the pivot point that supports the other two legs. Each leg has a Revoltech joint at the hip, knee and then at the front of the tread where it meets the leg. They are challenging to pose nicely, and you can’t really do a lot with them, but they look damn cool.

The figure can also go into a sort of battle tank mode, where it gets crouched down and points its shoulder missile launchers forward.

This is a pretty cool figure, but I really wish the treads worked. I understand at a 1,900 yen price point this isn’t realistic, but it would have been cool.

Now all I need is Getter 2 to complete the set! Santa, are you listening?

The Revoltech Getter 3 is available now at Hobby Link Japan
