Ok got my Jeeg pantheroid today,one thing of note is it has a more blueish hue than the CMs model..also if you get this guy BE CAREFUL I snapped his lower front leg as teh screw to teh ratchet joint was SUPER TIGHT! I fixed it by drilling it out and using a steel rod its now more sturdy,but a waste of 2 hours if i had just loosened teh screw,BUT now my dilemma is your fortune. Ok it also comes with a single giant spear,a Jeeh hand to hold it AND the piece which holds teh Jeeg Rockets on his back.This was VERY sly move on Ets part to include teh piece with pantheroid,so those who want to display Jeeg with back rockets need to buy the horse to do that. ALSO READ!! His EARS were somehow loose in the box you need to put them in i guess,but i almost didnt notice the tiny ear loose in teh box til I was putting him away,notice they are NOT on in the below pic as I hadnt found them yet! EDIT:I see a small bubble in the box below the horse missiles take a look,it holds the ears! This ET outing like Jeeg proper is very close to looking exactly like the CMs model but in plastic ofcourse.If i had teh chance again i probly would have passed on these two,and just kept my other 4 CMs jeegs and the ZPro..but hell,I like ET and I bought them!Sucks the leg snapped other than that its an ok piece.

Thanks for the review Baron!
Well. Yeah, CM's Brave Gokin 35 Jeeg was and still is better than what ET offers. Not only because the older Jeeg and Pantheroid had diecast parts, but apparently they were more solid and durable too (judging by your words on the ET figures). Still, I can see myself getting this thing in the future.. so I'll display CM's Jeeg combined with its Pantheroid, and then ET Pantheroid by itself.

Nice review, bro! Sorry to hear about the broken joint. This is exactly what I use reviews for, to keep me from possibly breaking the figures. }D

Ahh don't mention it Baron, I couldn't abandon you guys. Not after all you've taught me, hehe. And I've still got much to learn.
But this surprised me: Pantheroid doesn't have magnet joints? Well, I guess it has a magnet at the base of the neck so you can attach Jeeg but.. no magnet balls for the legs? Strange. Well, strange for ET at least.

It has magnets where legs meet body but where knees are there are click joints SMALL ones that couldn't idea magnet just too small of an area

Aha! So just the knees, alright. I'll be careful if I pick this up.
Thanks.
