Great Mazinger

This figure was to be my first real airbrushing tryout. Why I selected it? The main reason is that Great Mazinger besides being my very first seen anime back then in the 70's (as we know him here affectionately the Grandfather). Mazinger is also made of quite simple and smooth parts which I found excellent for testing my airbrush skills. Another reason was that this figure thanks to the excellent Bandai engineering can be made to stay in any position one likes. My preferred Great Mazinger pose is as you see it. When he called down the lightning holding his diabolical sword. I never forgot about it.
