Fewture Ex Gokin Getter Liger

Getter 2 gets an upgrade in the form of Getter Liger in Getter Robo G. It was formed with the machine Liger-Poseidon-Dragon set up combination and it was piloted by Hayato Jin, assisted by Benki Kurama and Ryoma Nagare.

Getter Liger came with the Getter Liger Machine.

Close up on the internal. The skull feels funny. I cannot describe what seems to be wrong with it. It could be that sinister smirk/smile. The Getter Reactor is sitting nicely inside the chest compartment.

The rib cage was lowered to protect the Getter Reactor.

Close up on the right arm. There was a lot detail on every inch of the figure.

Close up on the left arm. It functioned as a canister to conceal the weapons on Getter Liger.

Look at those sexy legs!!! Do not get me wrong. I do not have any leg fetish.

The left arm can be opened for weapon deployment.

This figure came with a chain weapon and a Liger missile.

The weapon is attached using a magnet mechanism. Chain attack!

Liger Missile!!!

There was a total of 3 different hand to choose from which can be attached to the arm.

The right hand on Liger can be transformed into a gigantic drill. Drill Arm!!!

I knew I was in trouble when I bought Getter Dragon. I was awed by the design and detail of the figure. I knew I have to get it's brothers too so once Getter Liger was up for preorder, I quickly secured mine without a second thought. Imagine how excited I was when I returned home from work a day or 2 ago and found this big box sitting at my home with labels telling me that Getter Liger is in the house. I postponed all my evening plans to do a quick unboxing and then took Liger out for some inspection. I have to admit that this was another great release by Fewture, the Getter Liger on par with what I have expected. The only complaint I have with this figure was the panel line. Some panel lines were not painted while some were painted in a very haphazard way. Fewture really needs to step up on the quality control especially on their finishing. With that aside, it is safe to say that Getter Liger is another masterpiece which you should not miss if you can afford to pay for the hefty price.

Fewture Ex Gokin Mazinger 40th Anniversary Version

Rocket Punch!!!

Size comparison between Mazinger and Leader Class Optimus Prime.

This Mazinger was a reissue in conjunction to Go Nagai's 40th Anniversary celebration. It spotted a different colour scheme which was more fateful to the original anime series. 

It would have been very difficult to find this figure nowadays because this have been out for years even if you are willing to sacrifice your first born to the devil. I consider myself lucky because I accidentally bumped into this while I was honeymooning in Hong Kong a while ago. It was slightly more expensive from the retail price but it was worth it. I told the shop assistant that I wanted to look at the figure and once everything was proven in order. I paid up in cash without looking back.

The articulation was good but not as impressive as the later Ex Gokin releases. The paint job was nicely done but there were still some flaws here and there but it was not too prominent. I was reluctant to pose it aggressively for I was afraid to chip off the paint during the process. My only issue with this release was the lack of accessories. The original release came with the jet scrander and 2 extra hands with cutter on it. In order to complete this figure, I will have to hunt for the add-on parts separately which will most likely cost me another few hundred bucks. That aside, this is a great release from Fewture and it is a must have if you are a Mazinger fan.
