This figure looks incredible. I wish I could afford it. Combattler V is one of my favorite super robots. But for now I'm very happy with the SOC GX-03. Great review as always! Thanks!
Just got mine and spent three hours enjoying how great the details and diecast are. The only thing i'd complain about is Mr. Charles not doing a guide on how to assemble this bad boy :p scratched mine while trying to put in his legs :( other than that tyvm for your awesome in depth reviews keep up the great job!
Great video. Thank you! this is insanely awesome! This must be the holy grail of Combatler Vs. But if you only get one, I would say get this one! I would rather have this than Haslab Unicron
I just noticed the battle tank wheels holders have 2 on each sides... while in Gx03 and 50 have only 1 on each sides..... i have to check the show again if whats the correct one......
just got this item because of your video upload, and i must say THANK YOU VERY MUCH, it is a thing of a beauty...i can't stress enough how you described it..."GORGEOUS", hehehe...
Nicely done! Combattler V preceded Voltes V and is in some ways a better anime as it wasn't as melodramatic as Voltes V was at times. Several of Combattler's weapons were updated for Voltes V. And some of the vehicles had better designs like the Battle Crasher & Battle Marine.
Epic review of this beast! I was kinda hoping the dx would have have the removable panels to show the inner workings. Hopefully you're right and grendizer is next. I'd really really like to get a giant robo (from the 90's anime) but he doesn't seem to get much love sadly
Wilson Tortosa That's exactly what I thought when they first announced this. I have the anime version of SOC Voltes V, but a DX Voltes V is gonna sell for a boatload of $$ when sold out! Plus/and be awesome to own 😆
I seriously enjoy your reviews the most and I am happy that you can find time to make them now again. and that little Rupet dance is just soooo funny :D
I ended up ordering a src mazinger z and a gx 73 great mazinger to go with this DX and my SoC Grendizer. I know you have them all and I wish you would take a picture of all of them together. I think these combined comes closest to scale with one another. I have to wait 2 more weeks to finally see all of them together.
I have one of this and thinking of buying a Mazinger Z DX. I saw your video review as well of this action figure, are you able to compare if Combattler and Mazinger DX are of the same hight?
Whoooooaaaaah!!jealous muuuch!!i want to ordere all of ot but i want to ask if how to take order and how to deliver in United Arab Emirates...i mean you can send here in UAE..coz i'm working here.
Im looking forward for DX soul of chogokin voltes 5 for your reviews😊 I really like your reviews in your GX-31v 40th anniversary soc voltes 5. More power to your channel. Godbless you
re: 11:57 soul of popynica it was also a separate brand just like soul of chogokin with their own PX numbers. It was very confusing in the 00s when there was GD and GX and PX. I'm joking of course, it is much worse now with hi metal r, metal robot, chogokin, dx chogokin, soul of chogokin, metal build, soul of chogokin dx and also blaaaaarrrhggggggghhh wait dragon scale and aaaaaccchhhkkk!!
Be very careful on the wheels coming out of the knees. Putting it back is very tricky. Don't force it. On the instructions it shows that inside the leg there are 2 channels where the last part of the wheel slides into. The back nub is supposed to go into the upper channel. The way to do it properly; as you are pushing the wheel diagonally back, you should be trying to lift the stem that holds the wheel up so that the nub slides into the upper channel. If you do it right, then the whole thing slides smoothly. If you are pushing with force, it's already in the wrong channel and should start again. Yeesh, that thing was a pain.
This thing is amazing, but sadly the DX line is something I can't do monetarily unless it's Voltron--naturally. Definitely looking forward to getting Cobattler in the new Full Action line, though!
just saw your video, currently there is a price point of $155 and $480, is this a collectors edition? would like to purchase what you had on this video. the figure is so hefty and really good quality. definitely a collectors must have...thanks for the upload...
DX Soul is nowhere close to $155, it is way above $500 range, you gotta be looking at regular DX to see a price tag of $155 not the DX Soul which is this one. You will be lucky to find one at $500
The greatest fail of Tamashii: having a very- high-end release which fails to have perfect transformation. On GaoGaiGar they managed to give PERFECT TRANSFORMATION hands some articulation. While on a DX release you have to swap hands despite its hands are bigger than GGG's and could have been given some articulation to form fists. And these crappy sounds no one needs! This is when Laserion, Neo Getter, Getter Go, some Evas and even the iconic Might Gaine have no SOC releases!
Im sure its not a lack engineering skills but a cost cutting measure. All those little pieces for the hand require big heavy steel molds. But yeah I get what you're saying. Only Bandai knows why
@@ВасилийМорозов-л7х yeah the sound thing is probably more for hardcore fans in japan. Ive seen toy molds and even for tiny pieces they use huge blocks of steel because they need to make parts trees. I forgot what toy manufacturer was showing me molds buy they need a crane to pick some of them up and when they open the mold its a few teeny pieces. Seems like a waste of space and money but there are reasons I guess to not fill upbthe mold with pieces
@@RocketPunchArmy I know that people love sounds, but who needs them for a display piece? Some Resque Bots shit can have sounds as it is a toy for stewpd 4-7 y.-olds who bash their toys together with their kindergarden friends and listen to pew-pew sounds. But DX SoC is not a kindergarden Resque Bots thing. The omission of sounds removes: The cost of soundbox itself The cost of molds to produce parts that hold the soundbox (I mean if thete is no soundbox, the figure is simplified, the amount of parts and molds decreases) The cost of assembly steps required to place the soundbox. But Bandai managed to ruin perfect transformation as an excuse for placing soundboxes in EVERY component. After the release od Gx-70 Mazinger Z, Bandai begins and keeps failing for some reason.
This figure looks incredible. I wish I could afford it. Combattler V is one of my favorite super robots. But for now I'm very happy with the SOC GX-03. Great review as always! Thanks!
Clean and beautifully presented review! Congrats on a gorgeous figure.
One of my favourite animes as a child
@38:10 the rubber threads of tank looks loose... it should be well fit...
I got my DX voltes v and im thinking if ill get this too!
Just got mine and spent three hours enjoying how great the details and diecast are.
The only thing i'd complain about is Mr. Charles not doing a guide on how to assemble this bad boy :p scratched mine while trying to put in his legs :(
other than that tyvm for your awesome in depth reviews keep up the great job!
I’ve been waiting for this forever, super excited to see this.
This thing is ri-donk-ulous!
Usually I hate small parts and accessories, but for this size it’s justified and they went all out.
Great video. Thank you! this is insanely awesome! This must be the holy grail of Combatler Vs. But if you only get one, I would say get this one!
I would rather have this than Haslab Unicron
Been waiting for this review to come out. Thanks 👍👍👍👍
I just noticed the battle tank wheels holders have 2 on each sides... while in Gx03 and 50 have only 1 on each sides..... i have to check the show again if whats the correct one......
21:54 BREAKING NEWS.

Im glad my review assisted in your purchase. Definitely a gorgeous robot!

I prefer Combattler more.

I really want that so bad 😢
15:37 Yep! As the name implies! 😆
WOW SO HEAVY AND STYLISH! WORTH IT!!
I cannot WAIT for the DX Soul of Chogokin Voltes V...
Wilson Tortosa ser magkakaroon ba ng Soc DX Voltes V? wow! mag-iipon na ko!
Wilson Tortosa That's exactly what I thought when they first announced this. I have the anime version of SOC Voltes V, but a DX Voltes V is gonna sell for a boatload of $$ when sold out! Plus/and be awesome to own 😆
too late
Your wish has been granted. Bandai has announced DX Soul of Chogokin Voltes V. Will be released by March 2020
Shirley Apostol And I come from the future in April 2020. A Pandemic just happened and DX Voltes V hasn’t been released yet.
I enjoyed the review! The only thing that I found annoying was the sounds emanating from the toy. Keep it up!👍
Thanks dude .. one of the best reviews. .. I was eagerly waiting for your review
abdul WARETH Laham thanks!
I seriously enjoy your reviews the most and I am happy that you can find time to make them now again. and that little Rupet dance is just soooo funny :D
Good! Review as always.. now we need dx soul of chogokin voltron
This is a good sign that Bandai will also make a DX Soul of Chogokin Voltes V in the near future!
Alvin d might be a long while since I think they are doing in order of GX series and probably only a few. I think next maybe is Grendizer
Good news, they actually made one.🖐😊
Cool Im planning tp buy this year
I ended up ordering a src mazinger z and a gx 73 great mazinger to go with this DX and my SoC Grendizer. I know you have them all and I wish you would take a picture of all of them together.

I just got mine 2 days ago and I love mine!
I have one of this and thinking of buying a Mazinger Z DX. I saw your video review as well of this action figure, are you able to compare if Combattler and Mazinger DX are of the same hight?
I put my Maz DX away but I have a feeling if not the same, that Combattler may be slightly taller. Definitely chunkier feeling
really miss your chogokin review
Whoooooaaaaah!!jealous muuuch!!i want to ordere all of ot but i want to ask if how to take order and how to deliver in United Arab Emirates...i mean you can send here in UAE..coz i'm working here.
Nice review. Maybe you've already answered this question but are you getting DX-04 ?
Yes, I have one on preorder!
No articulation demo?
Im looking forward for DX soul of chogokin voltes 5 for your reviews😊 I really like your reviews in your GX-31v 40th anniversary soc voltes 5. More power to your channel. Godbless you
How do you pronounce its name?
re: 11:57 soul of popynica it was also a separate brand just like soul of chogokin with their own PX numbers. It was very confusing in the 00s when there was GD and GX and PX.
I'm joking of course, it is much worse now with hi metal r, metal robot, chogokin, dx chogokin, soul of chogokin, metal build, soul of chogokin dx and also blaaaaarrrhggggggghhh wait dragon scale and aaaaaccchhhkkk!!
Keep laughing in actions you made while playing the base music 😂😂
Great review fellow collector. Very cool but picking up the Voltes GX-79
Whats the height of this thing?
Be very careful on the wheels coming out of the knees. Putting it back is very tricky. Don't force it. On the instructions it shows that inside the leg there are 2 channels where the last part of the wheel slides into. The back nub is supposed to go into the upper channel.

CDJapan has this item on sale and u save over 10,000 Yen
This thing is amazing, but sadly the DX line is something I can't do monetarily unless it's Voltron--naturally. Definitely looking forward to getting Cobattler in the new Full Action line, though!

How much it cost?
So Cool And So Iconic My friends. Thanks.
Would have been better if articulation was shown like the legs
This thing is amazing looking.
Charles...we have...d same..hobby...addicted...with ...all this kind of toys...exactly...d same...
My keypad typed alone 😃😃😃 i mean i want to order a Voltes 5 ...can you send here in UAE?
Yes Bigbadtoysstore ships worldwide and i just received mine
Aziz Nasser thanks for the info Bro🤗🤗
I crave for one...
Finally! What took you so long Charles?
massive!
واااااااو انت رائع انا احب كومباترا v واحب ايضا شخصية هيوما
I love this figure but 2 things I'm disappointed
1. It should have fully articulated hands
2. I don't have the budget to buy this toy for "kids"
Your doing great thanx
I like the toy Robot yes !!!!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
you right some part easy to broken
When you said "Battle crasher" in Japenese you won the internet LMFAO!!!!!
First!
lol!
RocketPunchArmy 27 lol
Shall I get this one or better I go for Soul of Chogokin FA ?
TheBoneFather If you dont mind the price...this one for sure. The other doesnt combine
RocketPunchArmy thanks bro for your support and your nice review
This looks similar to Voltes V. I followed the Voltes V series in the 70's, I wonder what the story line is of Combattler V.
Combattler V pre-dates Voltes V. And along with Daimos they are part of a trilogy of super robots by the same creator.
They gona have dc voltes v soul of chogokin
And DC mazinkaiser
And mazinkaiser with Kabuto by mirecle house
VVV
23:02 you killed me ha ha ha
DX
Like voltes v
Anybody make good, articulated, hands for this? Really don't like the look of the perfect transformation hands.
this is the virst before voltes v but voltes v is the bumb
🤘🏼
Looks a lot like Voltes V.

@@RocketPunchArmy But I bet that cutting the sounds no one needs could compensate for costs. And thanks for reminding me about the existence of molds.
Also the iconic Shin Getter and the other Big O Bigs have no SOCs.

夢の超合金
U cud've chosen any light colored back ground!😞👎
Why can’t super sentai/power rangers toys be like this
Because this cost like 400 dollars and super sentais are like 60 dollars
Nolan Baker no wonder they lost the license to hasbro
Hybrydatp64 yeah there a much larger market
Nolan Baker Daizyujin’s SOC is seriously lacking in comparison to this. This one came with electronics, alternate hands and rolling wheels.
Over $900 bucks :( man
It's a toy not a not a toy
Fk it watching it again
