Gx-49 New Shin Mazinger

[m0n5t3r]

from Hobby Japan:



the head does stow inside the chest...

Seems to be different enough from GX-45 to merit a separate purchase...

...i wonder if perhaps it is not as articulated as GX-45? the pictures so far have not been in dynamic poses...

I was thinking the same thing.. I don't think it'll be as posey as the Gx-45. BTW the blue Maz in the photo Mon5t3r posted is the Model kit, but the Gx-49 looks to transform the same way.


Hongkong item (not sure if this is for the Gx-45 or the upcoming 49)





Thanks to 45 Caliber over at PTK forums for the image.

New Shin Mazinger Manga. A different take on the series and features the Fewture Mazinger Z figure.


Thanks to Calibre over at Robotjapan for the link.




To start leeching.. err ...reading...

Fortunately it's also Fan-translated into English so the Manga is readable.


It contains the prologue (20 pages) followed by chapters 1 and 2 (33 pages each). Be Warned!! EXPLICIT CONTENT! Due to the violence and graphic nudity in the manga, this one is for mature readers only. The manga is very, very dark.

just wondering, do you think it's possible to transform him into a left handed version or it needs a slight modification to do that.

[Gold]

I guess it's possible, depends on the thumb's poseability.

Upcoming Gold version??

I think the one on the left is the model kit.








Transformation layout.







Thanks to Bizzio and Locidm over at Robotjapan.

Some info regarding the Gold Maz, it seems it was a custom job for the Taiwan Tamashii Nation expo, so it might only be a show piece and not be coming out for mass release. Time will tell.

hm......... lets just wait till the reviews.
coz i doubt that 49's diecast content would be at par with 45's.
anyone got their gx 45 and gx 49 already
