SOC engineering has come a long way. However, it seems like there is no way to get more articulation out of this design, even compared to the 40 year old Godaikin version made by Popy/Bandai. Interestingly, Bandai excluded diecast from all the other figures except Garbin (big blue guy), to reduce paint chip issues. While the molded color plastics look pretty good, it doesn't compare to the magnificent metallic blue paint of the massive Garbin. This is the tallest (though not heaviest) figure in the SOC lineup standing at 31.5cm. Looks impressive on display, though it cannot pull of action poses well.
