What do you think of 70's raideen's design?

Definitely one of the more distinctive super robots, I've gone back and forth on it honestly. Right now I quite like the whole ancient warrior vibe it goes for and I appreciate super robots that use bows and arrows as weapons. Sometimes it can be kind of awkward looking though. I think the God Voice attack actually being a bunch of energy waves that come out of its chest rather than being its actual voice is a little lame also. When Rahxephon picked up the same idea all those years later I think it pulled it off a lot better. In fact I think Rahxephon basically does everything distinctive or memorable about Raideen better. But you have to put respect on the OGs name and allow somewhat for its place in history rather than holding it to the same standards as some more modern series.
