you should have considered burning bridges and kept voltes v. kidding.
the fallout of ed209 and my elder pred's meh reception gave me a chance to PO before it sold out(asian retailer). yey.lolz

This. Oh my God this. I would buy tickets in advance. Plus I'd love to see giant chogokin toys. Probably end up being plastic tho.

Voltes V is the only one I care about as well. I already have the original run of the Maz figures and I sold my Aphrodite a while back, I just don't care about the female
figures. I also want to pick up that God Mars.

Threezero is making an Aphrodite A next. It actually looks much better than their Mazinger.

Looks really good, but remind me of Austin Power

Re: Mazinger Z & Super Robots (Shogun Warriors) and other Mecha - Official thread!!

that threezero aphrodite actually looks pretty awesome

Re: Mazinger Z & Super Robots (Shogun Warriors) and other Mecha - Official thread!!

it looks nice.
but, it looks a bit more like 3a's iron man line come to think of it.

ThreeA sometimes adds a bit too much of their own design into the licensed figures. So much so that they kind of lose the design of the original.
Aphrodite actually keeps the original look quite well. If they would have used a similar hip design as Aphrodite has on their Mazinger I think it would have looked much much better.

I'll be really impressed if they do a Doublas or a Garada-K7. Someone needs to step up and start doing the villains. We always see these same characters, I want
villains.

This. My 2 favorites right there. However, they better do them right. I was not a fan of 3A's Mazinger.
I will admit this Aphrodite looks great tho.

More Mazinger...ugh. I love Maz like the next guy but jesus, there are so many other robots out there. Why don't we get some Grendizer or Gaiking or Getter Dragon.
