    For starters, I recommend Snatcher, Lunar, and Android Assault/Bari-Arm. Bari-Arm is a cool shooter that is exclusive to the Sega CD IIRC.

    Yikes, it's Don Knotts in a wig. Not a good look for a femme fatale. Rattler looks good. My only gripe is the amount of black trim.

    I leave valkyrie hunting alone for a while and come back to this?! It looks like an enlarged gacha toy, awful.

    You had me at jousting giant mechs.

    Who wants a Wii the size of a keychain?

    Multiplayer Rastan - looks fun! On a separate note, Terry Bogard's teaser for SF6 was recently shown:

    It was made perfectly to spelunk the moist buttery nether regions of the Dune bucket.

    As JB0 mentioned, the M-308 sprites in the JP version were white: Apparently when the game was localized, the design was changed and an intro cutscene was omitted. And yes, it's a resin kit. I tried and failed to get it at an auction: And that definitely looks like a R-9 cockpit grafted onto a mech:

    There was a M-308 kit made last year that resembled what it looked like in the in-game scenes rather than the cartridge box art: It looks quite snazzy, it reminds me of a Guges from Appleseed.

    It looks like Robert Woodhead's next project will be none other than The Dagger of Kamui from 1985: The Kickstarter hasn't launched yet though. The last time I saw this film, I was too young to understand the plot, but I do remember admiring the animation quality. I wonder if a re-watch would make me appreciate it more.

    I love PLUM and their subject material of video game mecha. I only saw Wolf Fang at the arcades a couple of times, but I thought it was a cool game. I'm gonna guess PLUM will make a variant kit with quad legs and wheels later on. Since renegadeleader1 mentioned it, Good Smile's Moderoid line has Xardion covered:

    This one is looking very cool:

    MP-44 Lite? Sure, I'll bite. This will be the first TF purchase I've made in loong time. And thanks for the links, Mike.

    We have one, it's just slow. Definitely getting that YF-23.

    Nice treat for the 30th anniversary. A Master Gundam to go with it would be sweet.

    Upcoming on Amazon: *fan made poster, but the sequel IS happening

    I have to admit that I still prefer the anime over the manga despite the differences. I still dig out the old show once in while, especially the xmas episode during the holidays.

    Hot on the heels of the series finale of Urusei Yatsura comes the announcement of a new Ranma anime:

    R.I.P.

    I've been waiting for something like the Marvel vs. Capcom package for a long time. I suspect this guy will be left out though:

    Terry and Mai in SF6. Suddenly I'm into SF again. It makes me yearn for another Capcom vs. SNK game.
  22. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Vote for the new Space minifig color! Aww, voting window closed on the 3rd
  23. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Storm Shadow 2.0 looks cool. I'd want an in-scale City Strike Snake Eyes to go with it though.

    I was refreshing my memory with the GTO comic when I came upon this panel again:

    Latest update arrived today, here are some snippets: "Work on the OVAs continues at a steady pace. The subtitles for the japanese language track have been completed and are currently being reviewed to ensure all the fine nomenclature details are correct. Justin Sevakis and his team at MediaOCD are working hard on the color grading and restoration of the 4K transfers. They report that everything seems to be in excellent shape and most of the restoration work is dealing with occasional dust and film weave. Regarding the english dub, we're happy to announce that we've managed to obtain the audio track of the english theatrical release, which was only ever shown in theatres in North America. The main difference between the theatrical release and the DVD release centers around the recasting of two parts; Dennis Lone and Exxegran. Dennis only appears in episode 1, and in the DVD release Exxegran was recast between episodes 2 and 3, and thus is played by two different voice actors. In the theatrical release, Dennis is recast and Exxegran's lines in episode 1 and 2 have been re-recorded by the second voice actor -- thus the performance is consistent over all 6 episodes. There are other minor differences in the edits because of the lack of episode title cards and eyecatches in the theatrical version. Our current plan is to use the theatrical release as the basis for the main english soundtrack, but also include the DVD episode 1 and 2 audio on the disc for completeness. Even this far into the project, new materials are still being discovered in archives in Japan and being incorporated into the project. The latest discovery is a pristine print of the eyecatch sequence. As for the artbook, we've completed the restoration of the settei and the first pass of the settei translation; like the subtitles, it's going through a checking process to make sure all the nomenclature is correct. We've also translated all of the print interviews -- 6 in total. The artbook is huge -- looks like it'll be just over 200 pages, with about 40 pages of full-color illustrations. Finally, Mikimoto-sensei is hard at work on the new packaging art, and we hope to get a draft of that later in the summer. He has also agreed to take a stab at doing a custom embroidered patch design for the project! There's a few other surprises that we're working on that we're not quite ready to announce yet, so stay tuned!"
