hello, I just saw in the mkti branch the great mazinger/venus a box set. the great mazinger is the gx-02R. I'm tempted to get one, what were the improvements made in this new great mazinger compared to the 1st one released? I know this was discussed way way back, forgive this newbie ;D hope someone can help me, thanks.

Are you compairing the GX-02 vs. the GX-02R? Or do you just mean the original GX-02R vs. this boxset?
If it's the 1st one, "improvements" is not really the word (IMHO). There were changes & additions in the wings of Great Mazinger. The "direction" of the wings were reversed and the GX-02R had the "minimized" version of the wings.
But if you meant the second question, as far as I know, both are the same. Maybe Gold can give you a better account.

if you are reffering to the 1st issued GX-02R from the recent released GX-02R.. not much diffrence aside from it's packaging.. the first was boxed inside a styrofoam while the reisued has a plastic blister pack.. also noticed the slight variation of the brain condor.. the reissued somewhat was more darker in color.. other than that didn't noticed anything more.. not to mention the "box" for the GX-02R and GX-12 box set..
if you are reffering to the GX-02 compared to the GX-02R.. as SGP said.. design in the wings were noticeable but most noticeable of all were the chrome thighs as well as in it's arms.. and also the addtional height of the robot.. plus the name plate was change from sticker (02) to a plastic nameplate (02R)
