I'm not familiar with any of the Getter series (although the blue/green/white Neo Getter is kinda neat). That being said, this figure looks fantastic!

That's not a toy, that's a work of ART!

I got into the fewture game a little late

With Black Getter and the Mazinger repaint. I have to say this one kills it. The colors are fantastic. It seems to me, and I am a bear of very little brain, that Fewture is toning down Sato's designs or aesthetic. It looks more like the original Dragun just updated to me than the demonic testosterone stylings of Sato. Maybe it's just me.

I don't know, it looks pretty

I don't know, it looks pretty accurate to Sato's original draft.

I really don't think Fewture would alter the work he left behind, that sounds almost sacrilegious.

Looks like you are correct

Looks like you are correct sir! Nice find I guess he went a little bit easier on the Getter designs. Either way this is the best release for my extremely limited collection of Fewtures.

Well, he passed away before

Well, he passed away before he finished them, so there's always a chance the final version may have been different.

Just received all three today!

ajust got the Poseiden in today! He is GREAT! The treads sell if for me but all three look AMAZING TOGETHER!

Oh, sorry, new to the site. I'm mainly a TF collector, but have several Yamato Macross pieces and a few Gundams. Now I have 3 Fewture Getters! Though thankfully this is really the only anime I would spend the money to collect for. I have the Soul of Chogokin Danguard Ace, but these Fewtures are such amazing pieces. If you have the money, and love the anime, buy them!
