Bandai GX-57 Chogokin and BPX-01 Popynica Space Battleship Yamato comparison 宇宙戦艦 ヤマト

Here's my comparison of Bandai's 2001 Soul of Popynica BPX-01 and 2010 Soul of Chogokin GX-57.

GX-57 has more diecast, an infrared remote which controls 2 full color LED's, 4 soundtracks, 5 sound effects, has eight fighters, and runs on 4 AAA batteries (it's also longer by half an inch and slightly wider).
BPX-01 has numerous gimmicks, several sound effects, has five fighters, and runs on 2 AAA batteries.

@tacticalking161

Gimmicks? The Popynica verison.

IMHO I love em both.

BPX-01 is heavier but that's probably from all the electronics and hidden interior detailing.

Which Yamato would you recommend to sate my childish need to occasionally grab my ships off the shelves and wave them around while making woosh sounds? :P

Battleship Yamato shouldn't have been in the SOC lineup. But anyway, it doesn't deviate a great deal from the SOP version, so I guess one is enough. More diecast is a plus. But I sincerely hate electronics in toys. I am torn, because I have all of the regular released SOCs to date, until they released GX-57 in limited quantities. I wonder why is that? It's supposed to be a mass produced toy, like all regular released SOCs before. There is no reason to make the Yamato the exception.
