Ignacio Ocamica Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Thanks for the link!!! I had forgotten about the Tokyo Hobby Show. Quote
connor99 Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Man, that was nice! I absolutely love that IVANOV type! BTW, that masterpiece VOYAGER isn't so shabby-looking either . Quote
Myriad Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 What series are these from? http://www.hlj.com/showreports/ths04/scifi/index9.html Quote
Guppy Posted October 13, 2004 Author Posted October 13, 2004 What series are these from?http://www.hlj.com/showreports/ths04/scifi/index9.html It looks like Maschinen Krieger, an early 80's photo series that ran in Hobby Japan which has recently spawned a lot of toys. You can get little gashapon type toys pretty cheap which are really cool, so long as you don't care about not much articulation. http://www.q-net.net.au/~nipngnwm/ http://www.trooperpx.com/AFS/AFS08.html Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 What's with the Wing 0? Is that a toy or is that another MG that they are releasing again? Quote
UN Spacy Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Whoa. I might pick up that set of Yamato ships. Gotta love all the Gundamn goodness too. Quote
ewilen Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Is that Akuyaku tank from an anime or manga, or just a one-off that Miyazaki came up with? I found other pics on the net which show that the figures are anthropomorphic pigs (shades of Porco Rosso, but I know there aren't any pig people in that one other than the main character). Quote
zeo-mare Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 What's with the Wing 0? Is that a toy or is that another MG that they are releasing again? that is the Master Grade version of the Wing Gundam Zero Custom it is coming out in the next month or 2, it is mainly the body of the Wing Zero Ver Ka. they already released but with the OVA color scheme and the new parts for the wings and the weapons as well as a display stand, looks like a great kit. To bad the HLJ pics do not really show anything that we have not already seen on this site. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Starbug! With Mini-Rimmer! Who knew Red Dwarf was even known in Japan? http://www.hlj.com/showreports/ths04/scifi...os07331-01.html Quote
Chuey Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Whoa. I might pick up that set of Yamato ships. Gotta love all the Gundamn goodness too. I was thinking the same thing too. The nice thing about those Yamato models is there is a wide variety and they are cheap. Hopefully, this is a sign of more re-issues. Quote

Who knew Red Dwarf was even known in Japan?http://www.hlj.com/showreports/ths04/scifi...os07331-01.html David where have you been!?!? The Small Rouge one is HUGE in Nihon... They even Made a 2 volume set of all 8 Seasons dubed in Japanese. Sans Special Features just the Eps Bare Bones That toy Bug was NOT made by the Japanese just on Display was orginally released last year but was pushed back. KInda like teh old school Micro Machine PLaysets with real working lights and sound and a firing scouter Quote
David Hingtgen Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 (edited) Actually I have been quite out of the loop as of late, when it comes to Red Dwarf. I mean, I live in Iowa, it's amazing they air it at all. Occasionally. Out of order. In the summer. I knew Trek was big in Japan, but I really wondered if the humor of Red Dwarf would carry over well. (Trek has little/no humor, no translation worries--fake technobabble is fake technobabble in any language) Edited October 13, 2004 by David Hingtgen Quote

lt.actionjackson Posted October 14, 2004 Posted October 14, 2004 That 1/48 scale airwolf would look pretty kewl next to my valks! I wonder if they voyager's warp nacelles will have movement so you can display it in warp flight? Quote

I wonder if they voyager's warp nacelles will have movement so you can display it in warp flight? Claims are they will be, but nobody knows if they'll be movable at whim or that you have to build them in the final position you them like all the other Voyager model kits. Quote
Sarensaas Posted October 14, 2004 Posted October 14, 2004 Mmmmm, the VF-0D loox so good, can't wait. And what do they mean "second release" of the Temijin from Hasegawa? Wasn't the first release the Temijin??? Or is this just a recolor???? Quote

uminoken Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 Yeah, the region 1 RD dvds are WELL worth the money and series 5 comes out in Feb! So when is the 'Bug coming out, seems like that model's been around forever..... Quote

This is the first one. Good lord, just look at all those decals. You would have to include this in your will stating your great-great-grandchildren have to finish it. http://www.hlj.com/scripts/hljpage.cgi?HSGVR1 It looks like the "Xmas tree" guy from the Running Man film.. way too flashy for my tastes. (note: I accidentally posted this in the MPC thread cuz I am retarded! lol) Quote
Hurricane29 Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 (edited) That 51 model looks great, so does the 0D, come on Yamato! Edited October 15, 2004 by Hurricane29 Quote
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 I'm not much of a Gundam fan, but the flexibility of that PG Strike looks sweet! Quote
zeo-mare Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 yea the Strike is going to rock when it comes out, if i get the Virtual On kit i am definetly not going to paint it the way they have it way to many freekin colors, the decals look like they will drive even a pro insane within a couple of minutes i will probbly give it a completly different color scheme and keep it down to abour 3 or 4 colors at most like a Gundam, does anyone know how big these are ? are they comparable to a MG in size???

Guppy Posted October 15, 2004 Author Posted October 15, 2004 check out these pics of the Starbug, smegheads! http://www.hlj.com/scripts/hljpage.cgi?AOS07331 Quote
