Gaogaigar Shishio Guy Pewter statue
The only way to get it is to get the limited edition repainted GaoGaigo giftset(comes with repainted Gaigo, Gaogaigar, Gaofighgar, Dimension Pliers and the Power up parts).

Various Gaogaigar PVC action figures, several companies have released quite a few over the years.
The first company to manufacture the Gaogaigar figures (aside from Takara) was Yujin.
Some of the images are thumbnails. Please click to view larger pics.
Yujin Gaogaigar
Yujin Gaofighgar
Yujin Genesic Gaogaigar (note that there are two versions, No.5 is closed wing and No.7 is "extra ver." or open wings)
Yujin GGGG, GGG and GFG
Yujin SR SP King J-Der
Standing at 12", King J-Der towers over the other PVC figures.
The Yujin figures are the worst, actually (with the exception of King J-Der). The gold paint keeps rubbing off on one's fingers.

The second company to try to make figures of Gaogaigar is Kaiyodo
Kaiyodo Robot Museum Dividing Driver Gaogaigar
Kaiyodo Robot Museum Gaogaigar with Goldion Hammer (They also released a clear orange version of this figure).
Kaiyodo Robot Museum Star Gaogaigar

Last but not least, the most recent contender is CMs. Corp's Mecha Action Series line.
The only way to get the GGG big three was to buy the Grand Glorious DVD Boxset original Japan Region 2 giftset. I was fortunate enough to score the figures last week on Ebay (Sans the DVD though). CMs Corp. will be releasing mass produced versions of Genesic Gaogaigar (open wings), Gaofighgar (with Goldion Hammer) later this year.
Gaogaigar Final~Grand Glorious Gathering DVD boxset with CMs' Mecha Action Series Gaogaigar, Gaofighgar and Genesic Gaogaigar. Tower measures 18 inches tall.
Inner box, four faces of the tower
(the space below Gaofighgar is where the DVD set should be, unfortunately the Ebay Seller already sold this off seperately)
The DVD boxset CMs MAS Gaogaigar, Gaofighgar and Genesic Gaogaigar

The latest addition to the CMs MAS Gaogaigar line, the figure has more detail and actually stands better than the previous Kaiyodo figure.

Comparsions
Kaiyodo GGG and CMs MAS GGG
CMs MAS GGG and Yujin GGG
(L-R) CMs MAS GGG, Yujin GGG and Kaiyodo GGG
Kaiyodo Star GGG and CMs MAS Star GGG
CMs MAS Star GGG and GGG
The Star GGG has more detailed "crown" and painted Linear Gao windows and painted elbows.
CMs' MAS Star Gaogaigar and Gaogaigo
Cm's MAS Gaofighgar and Gaogaigo
Cms MAS Gaofighgar and Yujin Gaofighgar
CMs MAS Genesic Gaogaigar's tail (only has one joint, it can't bend down)
Yujin's Genesic Gaogaigar and CMs MAS Genesic Gaogaigar
CM's MAS GGGG, GGG and GFG
CM's Mecha Action Series Gaogaigar figures so far.
Overall, the Yujin figures are the worst (due to the rub off paint), but they are technically the most fun to pose (the others tend to have very tight joints. It feels like I might break them trying to pose them).
I'd say the CMs MAS figures are better, in terms of proportion, the only drawback is changing the fists is a real difficult task! I wished they made it easier. The joints on Star Gaogaigar is actually better than those included in the DVD box (CMs MAS Gaofighgar just literally comes apart in your hand).
The Kaiyodo figures are slightly misproportioned and the wing connector pegs are very, very fragile.

CM's Corp. Mecha Action action figure, Gaogaigo
Compared with the Kaiyodo Robot Musuem GGG
With the Yujin Master Action figures.
Hell and Heaven. Personally I find the hands are a pain to switch. The sockets are just too tight.

CM's Corp. Mecha Action Series Gaofighgar With Goldion Hammer.
Two Gattling Drivers (one for Star GGG) and Dividing Driver.
Comparison with the Grand Glorious Gathering DVD version GFG.
Arm disconnects at the elbow.
The Hammer is a bit difficult to attach, you have to pry the fingers and insert the hammer handle. At first I thought it was similar to the Kaiyodo Robot Museum Goldion hammer and that the Hammer head disconnects at the handle, boy was I wrong! I almost broke the hammer(heard a loud snap, good thing it didn't give all the way. Whew).
Goldion Hammer!!!

CM's Mecha Action Series Gadget Feather Genesic Gaogaigar.
Will Knife!
Bolting Driver!
Protect Shade
Comparison with the Grand Glorious Gathering DVD boxset Genesic Gaogaigar.
Slighty different shade of yellow.
Hell and Heaven!!
Well, the good news is, these figures are on the market now for those who weren't able to get the DVD boxset version (it's selling for $400). The bad news is that the joints are still as bad the first versions. The ankles, knees and elbows are very loose, causing both the GFG and GGGG to topple over at times if posed unbalanced.
Swapping out the fists are still a problem for the GFG (hence I didn't take any pics the Hell and Heaven, Dividing Driver or Protect shade). The GGGG's fists are easier to swap out but doing the Protect Shade requires removing the outer forearm from the shaft. Which is no easy task, so I didn't take the chance.
Generally, unless you're a diehard for GGG items, I would stay away from these figures and hope Kaiyodo does a Revoltech series of them. In fairness though, these are better than the Yujin figures (the gold paint rubs off on those, gross) and the joints on the MAS Gaogaigo did seem better, so maybe it's hit or miss?
That said, I really hope the upcoming MAS Mekanda Robo has better joints. Because that would really be disappointing if that particular figure still had such glaring quality problems.

Final Fusion!!!! Gaogaigar!!! Sadly.. since this is a model kit, a lot of kibble is left over from the transformation. Dividing Driver! Broken Magnum! Protect Shade! Hell and Heaven!! Gold
