Fewture Ex Gokin Getter Dragon

Getter Dragon was the successor for Getter 1 in Getter Robo G. It was formed with the machine Dragon-Liger-Poseidon configuration and it was piloted by no other than Ryoma Nagare assisted by Hayato Jin and Benki Kurama.

Front view of Getter Dragon. This was a huge chunk of gokin.

Close up on Getter Dragon. Details were littered all over the place.

Size comparison with Black Getter 1. Getter Dragon was about 1 inch taller.

Getter Dragon Machine. How I wish that it was transformable.

The chest can be opened up to review the Getter Reactor inside.

Close up on the arm. It has a joint at the elbow and the shoulder. The hand was attached with a ball joint.

Close up on the leg. There were tons of detail here. The leg was hold in by 3 major joints. One at the ankle, another at the knee and lastly on the hip.

Getter Dragon with the Getter Wing attached. The wing adds another level of detail on the figure.

It is time to bring out the props. Getter Tomahawk!

The Tomahawk was a double bladed axe. It was a finely crafted weapon.

What is better than a Tomahawk? What about double Tomahawk?

It has been a while Fewture produced another figure for their Ex Gokin line. All this while it was just a reissue/repaint version of the Getter 1,2 and 3. Everyone was excited when Fewture announced the Getter Dragon, Liger and Poseidon. I missed the chance to preorder the Getter Dragon and so I thought it might not meant to be mine. I was given a second chance to purchase this figure and I grab it without looking back. The design of this figure was awe inspiring. Sato sensei must have poured a lot of work into designing it and the sculptors did an excellent job translating the design from paper into the figure which we can see now. The articulation was limited but sufficient enough to do it's job. The finishing was nicely done but there are a few places which were not painted at all. The area at the side of the hand padding was not painted. It was an annoyance to me. Not to mention that some of the panel lines were half painted over. Fewture really needs to improve their quality control on these. Even with those apparent issue with the finishing, Getter Dragon is still a great figure and you should grab one too if you can afford it.

Robot Damashii Doraemon 2112 Version

Doraemon was meant to be yellow in color until the tragic incident with a robot mouse which gnawed off it's ears. Doraemon proceed to cheer himself up by drinking accidentally drank a "sadness" potion which caused it to wept, the yellow color washed off and his voice changed due to the potion. As a result, he developed a morbid fear of mice despite being a robotic cat, because he was suffering musophobia.Bandai took this opportunity to milk the fans off their hard earned money by releasing a limited edition 2112 version for the 100 years countdown event.

Out-of-box content. The mouse is no where to be seen and this figure came with eye plates in different expression compare to the normal release.

I am going to go visit my future self.

Dokodemo door!

Hiya me of the future who was living in the past!

What are you, my past self doing here? This is going to cause disturbance in the space time continuum!

Chill out! Have a Dorayaki from the future which was your past!

Wah!!! A mouse!!! Wow! I have never seen a life specimen before!

This limited edition Doraemon was similar with the normal release version with a slight difference in the form of different expression for the eye plates and also the exclusion of the mouse. The gold plating was impressive but not close to flawless. There were some finishing imperfection all over the figure. The joints on both arms were stiff/stuck which was most likely caused by the plating. That aside, this was overall a great figure and it deserved a place in your collection much like how Doraemon deserved a special place in our heart.
