After reviewing Revoltech’s Getter 1 and Getter 3, I guess it shouldn’t be a surprise that there is going to be a review of Getter 2 in this site.

Getter Robo was created by Go Nagai in the 70’s during the Giant Robot manga craze that swept Japan. The Getter Robo franchise tells the story of a hidden dinosaur kingdom under the earth emerging to take over the world.
The Getter Robo was created by Dr. Saotome for the purpose of space exploration but because of the new threat, was drafted into service to protect the world. The Getter Robot was unique because it used Getter rays harvested from space to power it, hence also the name of the Robot.
Due to the success of Getter Robo a sequel, Getter Robo G, was made with the same concept of 3 ships merging to form specialized robots to fight the enemy. Continuing where the original series left off, Getter Robo was shown being burned in a funeral pyre at the start of Getter Robo G to honor the loss of Getter 3 pilot Musashi.
