@EVAUnit4A Yeah cause we all want to sit through 60 minutes of me talking or sitting through a mile long written review...seriously, it's a review for the quality of a toy not to get anyone to watch an anime, you like the anime? cool check out this review to see if you like the toy. You like the toy? cool, now you can check out the anime. Anime fanatic/otaku encyclopedia does not a good review make.
@EVAUnit4A It's called having it before everyone on cdx. Why does one have to watch 52 episodes of some crappy anime to be able to review a TOY. I am reviewing a toy, not a character from an anime. Being a fan of an anime does not mean you have to go out and buy the toy if you aren't into toys, and you dont have to watch an anime to buy a toy if you dont like anime. Get me? I love cars but it doesn't mean I have to sit down and watch NASCAR. I have better things to do than watch cartoons, sorry
2:37 (stopped video to tell people off-camera to STFU) 6:42 "This is the captain. All stewards prepare for take-off..." Ugh, box description. *yawn* Nice classic interior though! Think I like God Mars more, but I can see how people like God Sigma too. So, when are we getting a transforming Super Sentai SOC??? Chachipower, if you've never seen the show, how'd you score the review for this? =?
@Wartator I'm not a fan of the older robo designs (Mazinger, Ideon, Leopaldon, etc.) so there aren't that many SOC I have an interest in. There's only a few I would still like to get, including Aquarion and God Mars.
from watching this review I have to say you know your work but I also felt you didn't want to do this one since you didn't know all the detail's of it. two and a half out of five stars my friend. sorry.
I used to have one of these... the old school one. I have already forgotten most of it. I know the ear of the blue or the antenna of the yellow one are made of rubber and they are very weak and may got cut off. That Styrofoam box do bring back memories on how they were packaged back in the days.
@EVAUnit4A Well, neither did I. Heck, I wasn't even expecting it to arrive in the package at all, I made dibs for another Revoltech as I already had 01 standard and 02 by the time :P
@Plowboy987 Not all GX Series Chogokin are transformers/combiners. There are normal figures, transforming and combining figures in the series. The later GX numbering seems to trend towards larger robots. And yes, the number after the GX identifies it numerically in the series, hence this figure is number 60. However there are sometimes multiple releases for each figure in the case of repaints or slight alterations to the figure. For example, GX-01 also exists as the GX-01R, GX-01RB, GX-01G etc
@EVAUnit4A possibly the same way I scored Revoltech ARX-8 and Eva-01 Awakening :P But hey, according to the site Josh didn't see Godmars either before reviewing its SoC toy and it still worked.
@EVAUnit4A Sounds nice. I'm sort of drifting off from Revoltechs, but I'd love to have a Jehuty toy. Though I think I'm falling in love with SoC, I bought Ideon on a sale and it really impressed me.
@MrIronhulk123 do you mean statue? its a $300 collectible, not a $10 action figure. So you better believe I will treat it as a statue. If I win the lottery I will treat these like toys and then see "if it blends."
hey! next time do that package opening thing you have at the end for the preview! the transformation scene gets ruined when we already have scene it in the preview D= please!!!!
@megnoman I feel you. My editing program wouldnt let me add anything to the beginning for some reason. It would mean losing the intro which I spent too much time on. It was an afterthought really.
Hope Bandai have done it better with Voltron...smaller and more metal content would be the best course. I wasn't at all pleased with their God Sigma, stupid pre-order had me locked in.
I've never really seen a 3 robot team combine into a decent gestault form (other than JRX from Car Robots ) up until God Sigma. I really wish Roadceaser from Victory could have pulled off a combination closer to this, but granted we are looking at 15-20 years of toy technology. The only SoC I have are God Mars (I wish they had done a reissue in Mighty Orbots colors!) and the Yamato. But after seeing your reviews I'm really thinking about GX 61 Diaoja now. Thanks for the fun review CP!
Chachipower, your reviews are seriously among the best I've seen. So thorough and the composition is always professional looking. Do you use Adobe Premiere for your editing?

@Wartator
If I get some more money, I'm going to trey and shoot for most of the EVA EVO Revoltechs, and review those.
from watching this review I have to say you know your work but I also felt you didn't want to do this one since you didn't know all the detail's of it. two and a half out of five stars my friend. sorry.
Really awesome looking. Only thing that kind of bugs me is the head in the combined mode looks a little small...
@Wartator
Meh.
You got Eva-01 Awakening only because I hadn't seen 2.0 yet. ;)

@MrIronhulk123 its almost a $300 dollar toy, for that money u better treat it like a damned statue!
Head looks pretty tiny while combined. Still pretty cool though.
How tight are the hip joints of the combined mode?
@EVAUnit4A Well, neither did I. Heck, I wasn't even expecting it to arrive in the package at all, I made dibs for another Revoltech as I already had 01 standard and 02 by the time :P

There is about 5 minutes in the middle with terrible static.
Voltron is this guy + Daltanious.
what show is this from i want to watch it now

@Wartator
I'm not saying it's impossible to review a figure from something you haven't seen, but a lot of the flavor gets lost otherwise.
hey! next time do that package opening thing you have at the end for the preview! the transformation scene gets ruined when we already have scene it in the preview D= please!!!!
@EVAUnit4A LOL, is it obvious I havent slept in 3 days? Either that or I have too much New York/Jersey blood running through my veins >:) mwahaha
Are these made of partially steel or all plastics?
Space Emperor God Sigma very interesting show
@megnoman I feel you. My editing program wouldnt let me add anything to the beginning for some reason. It would mean losing the intro which I spent too much time on. It was an afterthought really.
@jakstrieder
Mmm, I felt that as well. It really does show when someone knows about the product beforehand, and when they blindly cover it.
@chachipower i always look forward to your reviews on CDX =) i didnt know you had you're own page XD
and yes 2:37 was exactly for that...I edited out me complaining lol, would be fun to have it for outtakes.
@michaelcabrera Thanks, I havent used AP in a while, been using Pshop with Vegas lately
Hope Bandai have done it better with Voltron...smaller and more metal content would be the best course. I wasn't at all pleased with their God Sigma, stupid pre-order had me locked in.
@chachipower
*ahem*

Thanks for the fun review CP!
@megnoman Thanks!, yeah I have my own channel, but I do my really good stuff here ;)
It's more related to Daltanius, and GoLion is very related to Daltanius, so that's probably what you're seeing.
I REALLY like this one, Godmars and Ideon really took a bite out of my funds, some day, some day
Looks more than a little bit related to Voltron (or GoLion if you prefer) IMHO. Wish I could afford one. Thanks for the review.
Chachipower, your reviews are seriously among the best I've seen. So thorough and the composition is always professional looking. Do you use Adobe Premiere for your editing?
How does this compare to the Fewture Ex Gokins and which do you like better?
civicmind08 Totally different animal. Both have their merits.
@chachipower
Oh, I thought you were talking about me-! XD
How do the individual robots scale with Godmars' individual robots?
well done! specially the final trasformation small movie =_=
@RubberDuckyToy Its about a foot tall
@chachipower haha you are a boss! XD
I just got it today and used the review to help me put it together. Thanks for doing the review.
do you think they will ever make a soul of chogokin voltron
You think we'll see Soul of Chogokin Vehicle Voltron?
kamen rider black rx, robo rider, bio rider
thats how i see them
Well, Daltanius and God Mars, really.
Which would you prefer: Godmars or God Sigma?
STYROFOAM! in the 21st century.
Now that's a throw-back
11:21 it's on like Donkey Kong
I like your review, thankyou!
so serious lolllll
where i can get that?
More review less background noise and baby crying, fuck.
