Yeah, I see there was no way the lower part would rotate, after messing around I got the left knee to rotate fine, but the right one still very stiff. Thanks for the feeback! Looking forward for your review on the Anti-Guren Lagann!
This is a great video! At first I was going to get the Riobot, but I thought I would look up some opinions beforehand... which led me to your reviews. You did a great job showing the pros and cons of each figure and in the end I ordered the SRC. I've only just received it and I love it. Thank you very much. It is not only beautiful but also very pose-able and the joints feel amazing to move around. It is my very first SRC, I'm used to figmas. Please tell me if there are more worthwhile SRCs :)
UGH. This is so somewhat confusing for me now. At first I hated the look of the SRC, mostly because of the Thunder thighs. But the more pics I saw of this guy in poses makes me forget about the big knees and I started to like it. But I wanted to get the Revoltech first, just because of the Core Drill and it's hard to find nowadays. I can't decide anymore haha... :(((
I want this figure sooo bad, and I have since it was first announced! I might be able to get my hands on some extra cash, soon, so there's still hope for me. Fantastic review! And I can't wait for the review for the drill set! Was this the Japanese release, or the localized one?
If I were to get Naked Jehuty It would be the 3rd revoltech toy. They look good an all, it's just that I hope they up their QC. (I own both EVA unit 0 and 01 from the rebuild series). The hole where the peg plugs in was placed unevenly so one of them couldn't stand up proportionately :/ Also they got really sticky after putting them up for display for 2 years. So I'm a little scared of purchasing any revoltech figures :/
Aw damn :C Sorry to hear that. I've been reading online on ways to take care of toys like revoltech. I think you need to leave it in a place that's cool and dry, make sure there's no UV rays and Heat.
Your reviews are awesome, picked this model after seeing this review and have no regrets ^_^ I got a revoltech one too because it was cheap, and its junk compared to this model. Mine dont seen to have the swivel on the knee though. I tried rotating a little bit but Im afraid it may broke if I force too much.
Do Gurren Lagann's fists fit in Mazinger Z's weapon set? I'm thinking of picking up the weapon set but I don't really want to shell out for Mazinger Z.
seems to be a pretty cool gurren lagann figure but i have to say i prefer my riobot one i guess the src is more screen accurate than the riobot but i like the riobots design
If only naked Jehuty was in the super robot chogokin line, I would've purchased it in the drop of a hat. *fingers crossed* but thanks for the suggestion ^^
As long as Gurren's fists can attach to the rocket effect parts, that's all I'm really interested in. The shot in your video looks great but I assume you're using fists from Mazinger Z. I'm just wondering if both of Gurren's fists can attach to the effect parts.
Nice I found this guy on AMIAMI for 4,040 JPY first time buyer from this website it doesn't give me a Shipping cost I live In Chicago and I chose EMS shipping and PayPal of course cause I dont have JPY lol how much do u think the shipping will be?? think both shipping and item will be no more then 60 bucks?.
I sure wish this stuff was still decently available especially in Europe. Even getting a simple Revoltech figure will round you up between 50-80 euros which translates to about 60-100 dollars and the now discontinued and rare Riobot one won't go below 200 :(
***** Honestly, this stuff is kinda tough to get anywhere outside of Japan. Online stores are pretty much your best/only solution if you're interested in this stuff.
im planning to pick up a gurren lagann figure, but like more for fiddling around with than posing and leaving on my shelf, would you reccomend this one or the revoltech
Well, both are pretty durable though i prefer a SRC's smooth joints over Revoltech's ratchety ones. However, the Revoltech is much more cheaper than this SRC.
Great review! Finally gave in and give SRC a try with this one. I do like the joints can be extended for added articulation.
i love the way you pose the toy your reviewing when you show the end of the video fighting other toys, i think its pretty funny and cool.
i personally think this is the best one that has ever been made, thanks for the review.

The hip joints are really loose and keep me from doing certain poses with the figure. Is there anything I can do about that?

When will SRC do Tengen Toppa? We have so many GL figures out there, but hardly any in his final form [Don't count Chou Tengen Toppa]
Dude, it'd be like five feet tall if they wanted it to scale somewhat properly lol.
>five feet
more like the size of our planet

fantastico Super Robot Chogokin Gurren Lagann

I need some help. To get this figure or Revoltech Naked Jehuty first ?! T_T

I think I might wait until the release of src anti gurren lagann.

***** yeah, which my wallet is not too excited about, but I'll have to make do I suppose haha (these reviews are great btw)
Does the gurren wings come with this
So, am I the only one hoping for a SRC Gurren & Lagann set?

I agree with him but hey if you think you’ll like it better the money’s worth it
"just who the hell do you think I am"
Nice ("You two-face S.O.B." ) - LOLOL
I want this figure!!! but the after market prices are over $100 CAN!!!!
Really? That's a shame cause it's definitely not worth that much.
***** it is, the prices for most of the SRC's for sale on Amazon.ca are ridiculous!
no drill breaker??!?!?!!??
Did u get this from amiami?
... No giga drill break? Or did i miss something?
