SoC GX-75SP Mazinkaiser 20th Anniversary Ver. from Super Robot Wars has releases for sale

First of all, please pay attention to this black and shining body. The black part of the GX-75 Mazinkaiser released in 2017 was painted black, but "20th Anniversary Ver." Was plated with black metallic.

Originally, each joint part was electroplated with gold, so it was upgraded to a two-tone color of black metallic and gold. In addition, the central part of the Kaiser scrambler has also been changed from painting to gold plating, and it has been reborn as an item that looks good even when viewed from the back.

Of course, the specification change of "20th Anniversary Ver." Is not limited to colors. One of the weapons, the Final Kaiser Blade, has been remodeled and the blade has been increased by 20 percent. With this larger Final Kaiser blade, the display is even more powerful. The strong and cool image of Mazinkaiser is more visualized !!

Also pay attention to the display pedestal. This GX-75SP dedicated pedestal is also newly made for "20th Anniversary Ver.", Modeling in the image of the wilderness of Hell Castle, the Mazinkaiser logo, and the voice of "Mazinkaiser's Theme" sung by Ichiro Mizuki. Is built-in. The feature of this 20th anniversary version is that you can enjoy the charm of Mazinkaiser not only visually but also auditorily. A Kaiser scrambler can also be attached to the pedestal.

The package design is also completed. "20th Anniversary Ver." Has a vertical layout and has been changed to a design that emphasizes the Final Kaiser blade.

To conclude this article, please see the comments by Keiichi Sato, who designed Mazinkaiser with the OVA "Mazinkaiser", and Kiyoshi Okazaki, who is in charge of planning for the BANDAI SPIRITS Collectors Division.

Director / Designer Keiichi Sato

Domo! This is Sato who designed Mazinkaiser!
I can't help but be surprised by the passage of 20 years.
Kaiser's design had a game design in the early days, and my mission was to challenge it as a differentiator.
For games, it was a small sketch of a drawing, so I decided to design it from scratch.
Devilish feeling, emperor feeling! Furthermore, it's scary and heroic! I challenged with this in mind!
Twenty years later, I think that the proof that I am still loved is that my commitment went well.
Hoping that Kaiser will continue to shine in your soul in the future !!

BANDAI SPIRITS Collector's Division Chogokin Soul Planning Manager Kiyoshi Okazaki

The OVA "Mazinkaiser" is the same as the original "Mazinger Z" with the voice actors of Kouji Kabuto, Professor Yumi, Dr. Hell, and Baron Ashura! Super robot action full of keen taste! And after all, Ichiro Mizuki's enthusiastic singing "Majin Kaiser's Theme" reverberates in the climax battle! Is a work that leaves a strong impression.

When renewing the GX-75 Mazinkaiser at the turning point of the 20th anniversary of the release of the OVA, we wanted to make it an item that also contained the charm of this "Mazinkaiser theme", so we used the wilderness of the battlefield in the play as a motif. The pedestal was newly modeled and the voice IC was installed. Together with the OVA version logo plate, it is a special pedestal that complements the male figure of Mazinkaiser.

By black-plating the black armor and gold-plating the decoration part of the Mazinkaiser body, you should be able to feel the gorgeous personality as the strongest and invincible demon emperor. In addition, the deadly sword Final Kaiser Blade is the 20th anniversary of OVA, so the blade part has been enlarged by 20% and newly shaped and finished with gold and silver plating. The power is significantly different from the GX-75 standard version. Let's play the "Mazinkaiser's Theme" that raises the tension and shout along with Aniki "Kaiser!"
