Hey Geeks!
I saw this CGI old school Getter 1 image somewhere and I'm hoping that one of you may have crossed paths with these before and may know where I, Nala, could find a GGI Getter 2 and Getter 3 like this one.
Any of you seen any of these?
UPDATE:
Found 'em!
And this...
Ahhh...
Man oh I wasted time after school watching the dubber version of this called Starvengers.
And that was on Showtime too!
Actually, I found them.
Now I just need to find all three larger.
I first had these guys when I was 8 and man, they really still get me excited for such simple mecha designs
Nala, You are going to want the Soul of Chogokin versions. GX-18 Getter Dragon, GX-19 Getter Liger, & GX-20 Getter Poseidon. By far the best and most highly detailed versions ever made.
I have all the cartoons in English and Japanese with subtitles on DVD. A lot of the episodes weren't dubbed into English so getting them in Japanese with subs is a must if you want the whole story.
If you need help finding any of this stuff for a good price let me know, the DVD's are real hard to find.
I was a HUGE Starvenger Force Five fan too when I was a kid.
Damn! They're pricey. Nice though huh?
They are about 8 inches tall & about 90% die-cast, very little plastic on these. You can get them for about $40-$50 a piece. They are literally pieces of fine art.
I have most of the Soul Of Chogokin line.
If you had the 5 inch die-cast Shogun Warriors from the late 1970's when you were a kid like I did, then you know exactly what I'm talking about. I had those and watched the Force Five cartoon daily when I was a kid. That was where my giant robot addiction began almost 30 years ago!
Yeah. I still have my Getter 2 and Getter 3 from the Shogun Warrior line.
They've seen better days.
I came across a ton of old nice ones at the Cowtown Toy Show last autumn (pics here) but I couldn't drop the scratch at the time with the house on the market and in contract and all.
Some day though.
I had the 24" Godzilla but my cousins destroyed it.
