Fort Max

Jagd Doga looks very sweet & Gouf is more then welcome. Go pros, go! Speaking of pros, HLJ just shipped my green divers asshimar.

The big teaser pic on the official site seems to show it with a pair of what looks like smaller versions of the anti ships swords.

I've wanted that for a while, I can see Stirke, Skygrasper and all it's weapons fitting nicely in the MKII sets box. Strike Noir is looking interesting though, seems to have loads of gimmicks in it's pack.

6" is the standard size for this line. None yet, First Eva due in June, the rest to follow will be 02 & both verisons of 00. More to come after that as well, probabaly. cost is around $20, it's worth noting that all of these figures are coming to the US pretty sharpish so shop around comic/online stores to see who's offering what.

More likley to be around 20cm.

I have that as well and yes it is a very dissapointing piece, these are something very different though & on top of that Kaiyaido actually had a table rammed with samples of these things for people to play with at the recent wonderfest. Reports from people at the show were positive. Ingram will be No.10 in the line, coming out before that though will be Getter 2 from the most recent anime, Overman King Gainer and a whole pile of Evas.

It could well be except that it's in the largest size/price point so it's up in the air at the moment.

It'll certainly be cheaper but it isn't even know yet if it will be transforming or just a very gimnmicky gokin figure.

That's another way of looking at it, I thought that Dewey was just concentrating on his kids now. That does make sense though but neither Anemone nor Eureka has communicated directly with the coralians.

Graham, is there any good lineart of the Gekko-go/other ships that shows stuff like the launch ramps/landing gear etc? As for the END, It'll be reapired certainly but I don't think it will be upgraded. Dewey has allready lost interest in it and Anemone. I do think that there will be some kind of new GF mech for the upgraded Nirvrash to fight on slightly more equal terms.

The only result is this, "Minor Stargazer update (from Gunota) A promo sheet that can be seen at the Char Custom Blog indicates that the OVA will also be shown in stores, like the Gundam Evolve shorts and Astray/SEED MSV promo anime, and that the general release date will be in June. Expansion of related merchandise into the Gundam Collection and HCM-Pro lines is planned." HCM Pro Strike Noir? I am so there!

I didn't like that episode as much as some of the previous big plot advancement ones, the Coralians I actully kinda liked but the sudden inclusion of one of animes biggest cliches in the form of the beautifull children was unwelcome. I have faith that they will be as wellw ritten as the rest of the show, I'd be really dissapointed to see such an otherwise great series peter out like so many before it. On that note, the last episode is going to an hour long special and the second OST is out in aprill.

Bad news folks, the AOZ figures are only customs for now. http://www.toysdaily.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=34924

The torso doesn't slide together, you have to swap it for a compacted version. I think that's it for swap parts . I'm very impressed that it can hold the mega launcher so well. In a moment of stupidity, I actually only imagined pre-ordering one and didn't really do so... weird...

Selling toys would be the simplest thing to do but there are allready dozens of people who love toys doing just that so getting noticed is going to be hard work. If you're talking about actually creating toys then I imagine some kind of design qualification would be essential as well as a portfolio of designs and stuff you've done. The question is a bit vague really, what did you have in mind?

Rentons voice really didn't inspire me, Eurekas actor is very good & I'm not certain about Crispin Freeman reprising Alucard for Holland. I may end up skipping the dub as this is the first time I've still been watching the show when the english releases start showing up & I'm going to have the japanese voices so permantly fixed in my head... The last two theme songs are out now, the fourth end is a bit dull and the opening is... rather strange, it's a worth a listen for it's shear WTF? factor.

Strangely, I don't care. It's a start, if this sells then they might be inclinced to start gathering togther licenses and write an english specific game around what they can get. But that's way off, right now I'm just elated that GBA's are region free. We might also see the OVA released to conincide with this.

Bandai have put a fully featured new version of the english E7 site, it has a surprising anount of usefull info (not set on Earth for one thing), some nice wallpapers & some indication that the game could well be coming over soon. http://eurekaseven.bandai-ent.com/

I was thinking a while back how cool it would be if Takara expanded the new line of 1/18 scale mechs & microman figures that kicks off with Scopedog next month to other "similarly" sized but crinimally ignored mechs. A dream list would include, Gasaraki Tactical Armours Full Metal Panic Arm Slaves Nadesico Aestevalis's Aliens Powerloader Mospeada Ride Armours Appleseed Landmates etc, etc untill you have a whole shelf/room full of popular mechs & pilots all in the same scale & of the same quality.

Very sweet but not completely unexpected, AOZ has been very popular based on what Dengeki Hobbys features. It's a cool figure but I'm more excited to think that this could open the door for sentinel and Fix designs in the mainstream lines.

I like the cockpit, not so keen on the nose guns though, they just don;t look right to me. I do like that he added the swing out arm cannon though, a shame bandai made their stuff before that was featured in the show.

It seems a strange part to swap really, Bandai has some very clever people working within it for whom making the waist collapse would have been a piece of cake. Perhaps it's more of a measure to keep the cost down, it's allready tied witrh Asshimar for the most expensive single figure. Except I can't see why that would bother them... Oh well, mine was pre-ordered ages ago and my enthusiasm hasn't been dampened a bit.

HCMP Zeta again, it had better actually be out this time, http://cgi.2chan.net/y/src/1140708242210.jpg

Supposedly.

Somebody should do an anime about mecha pilot's elderly days, his struggle against hurting back and shaking hands, falling asleep in cockpit in the middle of the battle. That would be so intense. 373097[/snapback] You should check out Gun X Sword sometime, it's only in one ep but episode four has exactly what you decsribed in the form of an aging sentai team.
