Kotetsu Jeeg Jumbo vinyl 24" figure

[LonnieFisher]

Being released the end of September. How super cool!

[cjefferys]

Sweet! So after a bit of Googling, it looks like this is an Italian release?

[LonnieFisher]

Yeah, Italian. I don't know why Italy has so much cool Japanese robot stuff. It seems like they have more than Japan. I'd really like the original one by Takara. It's way cool!

[LonnieFisher]

I'd like to customize him!

[samurainoir]

wow. is it magnetic jointed?

[LonnieFisher]

No, he's not a magnetic figure. I do want to customize one, so, he might eventually have some magnets.

Here's what the site said about him.
"Powered by HL PRO with all its well-established experience in producing vinyl products of direct license Dynamic Planning, this maxi articulated action figures has less than 13 points of articulation.

Production limited to just 1000 copies!"

I'm not sure if "less than 13 points of articulation" translated correctly, and he actually has 13 points of articulation.

Looks like a HL-Pro repackaging. I've bought all the jumbos they've made (Mazinger Z & Grendizer) and the Toynami ones.
I have a boxed version that looks like what this website shows:

I bought it on eBay from Italy.

It's got a new paint job, not just a new box. It's the "Anime Color Version".

This is the one I'm really wanting to get!

Jumbo Machinder from the 1970's!!

That's pretty cool, a 2 foot tall action figure, I think a Godzilla would be sweet.

Yeah, that's a sweet figure, he's on my wish list.

There have been some large Godzilla figures (including the Shogun Warriors one which is around 18" tall) but the largest one ever made was the Super Premium Godzilla, two feet tall and four feet long. Costs a fortune though...

I had to sell my Shogun Warrior one. That really sucked!! He was taller than 18", I'm pretty sure.

[cjefferys]

Maybe 19"? Definitely shorter than the 24" Jumbo robots and the Popy version is even shorter (but cooler). That sucks though, I'd hate to think of letting mine go, I've had him for nearly 40 years (yikes!)

I just read online that he was only 16". Strange, he seemed taller to me.

[cjefferys]

Ok, that got me curious. Now that I'm home I just measured mine, he's almost exactly 18 1/2" tall (same with the Toynami version that came out last year). The Popy Jumbosaurus version might be closer to 16", I know he is smaller.

I don't have the 2 foot tall Bandai version (too rich for my blood!) but I do have a Bandai Goji that's almost 15" tall.
