  1. Oh hell's yeah! Bandai have until this hits shelves to announce something better.
  2. Yeah I have a special shelf above my desk that only my current most awesome toys are allowed on (not the same as most recent). It currently has Masterpiece Prime & Megatron, Gunbuster, Yamatos Garland and a Masterpiece Great Exkaiser. Everything else just gets shunted around the various flat surfaces to make way for new ones and occasssionaly put away.
  3. I want one but I'm feeling kinda wary of buying any more expensive toys these days. Once brought they just seem to sit on the shelf since playing with them usually involves a heavy investment of time. Even Gunbuster, my most anticiapted toy since Masterpiece Prime just stands stocially on it's launch pad. I want Ideon too but again have the same nagging doubt that I wouldn't get much out of it after the intial noevelty.
  4. Well I wouldn't expect (or want) Gainax to rush into anything (besides the inevitable movie versions) but if there's potential and they have the passion to work on it that made this so great then by all means make another.
  5. Man, I can't believe people actually want it to end. What if a sequel turned out to be the anime equivalent of Terminator 2 or even Aliens, you'd all change your tunes then wouldn't ya!
  6. It's science fiction though, as some dude once said when asked about sequels to aliens; "It's sci-fi, there are a thousand ways to bring Ripley back" All they have to do is have them venture out further into the galaxy, find a stronger race that even the anti spirals fear and wham! second series! The thing I want to see most, is in the final frame of the credits to 27; "Gurren Lagann will Return!" It would make my year.
  7. Yeah, Diebuster is easily forgotten in the face of this.
  8. Compared to the rest at least, aside from the goodbye scene it just seemed like a lot of talking. Particularly from Lord Genome who's necessary to keep explaining everything. Also the way the previous one ended made me think that the transformation would be the first order of business but then they built it up even more, and still more after that and then when it finally happened it was a bit disappointingly vague.
  9. I totally missed that! *goes to watch it again* Great episode, much better then the disappointing 25.
  10. I'll say this much, it's less then I was expecting.
  11. So another month and nothing in the magazines, Yamato is so cruel.
  12. HJK does toys as well, they always cover the latest SOC's etc. This is a figure, it's being released by Alterier (sp?) I think and not Atlieri Sai (sp?) now, how confusing...
  13. At last, the first magazine spread of the upcoming Arbalest figure, looking very sweet; http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1
  14. Gunbuster for me without a doubt but I don't have that many, just him, the original and spec versions of Eva 01 and Xabungle. I do want to get Ideon, Dancougar and Iron Gear in the future. If any of them are going to challenge Gunbuster it'll be the Ideon.
  15. Eh? Mine keeps charging if I shut down the machine from the controller. I've found the play and charge kit to be invaluable, I can't understand why anyone would want to fiddle around with batteries any more.
  16. The transformation was a bit anticlimatic and vague.
  17. Grafited to hide against walls.
  18. Meaghouses 4-5" or so Ride armour should be out in the fall and looks pretty good. No idea what it'll cost though, probably a lot for it's size.
  19. There's 27 epsiodes? Cool. Thanks for the info on the Gar thing guys but GGG's hero is Gai or Guy... isn't it? Man, all I seem to do on the internet these days is ask questions...
  20. The 1/400 Gundam Collection Ptolemaios looks really cool and has one overall very well done looking gimmicky launch system; http://www.amiami.com/shop/?vgForm=Product...ate=review.html I'd buy it if it weren't £50!
  21. Can I just ask, what's all this "GAR" & "Garlock" buisness? I get that his (totally awesome) costume bears more then a passing resemblance to Captain Harlock's but other then that I'm stumped.
  22. Well, at last I'm there, I caught up to Gurren Lagann and my god, WHAT A RIDE! I just watched 20-24 in one sitting and I was floored again and again. As well as the end I can't wait for the real toys to start hitting the market, Simon's rides alone would keep Bandai's SOC division busy/in business for a whole freaking year. And with that in mind I thought I'd do a little idle speculation as to how Bandai would go about it. This is my dream line up: Lagann - Spec Layzner size, transforms with included figures and movable/swappable facial features as well as drills. Gurren Lagann - Mazinger size, has a small partially transforming lagann to combine with plus jet pack and an arse load of drills The rest is spoiler tagged, just in case. What do you think, mad enough to do the show justice?
  23. I'm just dissapointed that Yamato haven't yet followed up the first cad drawings published in a magazine with more.
  24. Is War Machine appearing in this first one? I thought I caught a glimpse of a heavily armoured suit in the trailer.
