Sam Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Thanks for the info =-) Still a bit concerned on those hip things, but fingers crossed it all goes well 65 US for the pair is a pretty good price isn't it? Do u mind asking where from, or was it not an online store?
Mowe Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 They were from Yahoo Japan Auction site. I think if you search Ebay, you should be able to get them for around $40 each comfortably. But definitely don't over-pay for these toys. Knowing Bandai, they are likely to re-issue, or come up with another version of the Unit-00 when the 2nd movie is released. I get the feeling they are holding back with the weapons. I say the Specs Evas are not a must have, but they good fun. I would wait for the realization and see the quality of that one.

ruskiiVFaussie Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 Sooo... i wonder how long Bandai will take to bring out SOC VF-25 then??? Seeing how they bring out Eva-00-01 SOC's way before the movie's make it out, why not for MF VF-25???? I'm excited, and anxious at the same time. Can we trust bandai... really?
Guppy Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 Energer Z?? anyone got news on this?? J ust saw it and added it to my toy want list:
ruskiiVFaussie Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 what the hell? lol, never seen this side of Mazinger before.... pass
Mowe Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 (edited) That was a draft design that never got used for the OVA. Just another excuse to get Mazinger fans to buy more Mazingers. It is quite kirky, so I am tempted too. Energer Z?? anyone got news on this?? J ust saw it and added it to my toy want list: Edited November 20, 2007 by Mowe
Twoducks Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 Awesome review Mowe. Good thing you compared the two Eva 01s, I thought the movie Specs were just a recolor. BTW, thanks for the pic
Guppy Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 bah, you fools! He is totally cool cos he's got a motorcycle planted in his head instead of an aircraft and he's got a STUNT RAMP ON HIS BACK to launch off!
ruskiiVFaussie Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 cool? not even. I'll let you buy it Guppy-san.

eriku Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Daimos is finally on the horizon Pic Source: tom.com from Toysdaily F I N A L L Y. Now the wait for pics begins! Thanks for the teaser, Mowe, that news is enough to keep me going today.
Mowe Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 (edited) So glad to see this sucker comes under $250. Looks very posable!!!! Pic Source: Bizzo from Robotjapan Edited November 22, 2007 by Mowe
Twoducks Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 (edited) I normally like this things in proto grey colours but I must say it look fantastic with the colours applied . More pics of Godmars here: http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 Edited November 22, 2007 by Twoducks
Fort Max Posted November 22, 2007 Author Posted November 22, 2007 There hasn't been a lot of interest to me in the SOC line lately, I'm glad that other fans can get what they want but I hope they do some more 80's and nwer designs again fairly soon because I love lusting after the latest SOC but Godmars just isn't doing it for me, lol. Speaking of lust, has anyone seen anything new on Konami's Gurren Lagann Great Impact model? http://www.hlj.com/product/KNM13491 It looks a high quality piece but I really need to know if it's going to be worth that price.

It comes with a 1/1 core drill... and it has metal... and it looks great... but Bandai could chuck out one with transforming and gatai action for that price IMO. It's a bit stiff too in my opinion for something so big and with no tranforming gimmicks. Love the series but I might cancel the preorder if I don't see anything that justifies the high price or something soon. I'm in a state of lust-unlust for it Edited November 22, 2007 by Twoducks
cube Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 how tall is the gurren lagan? It's a pretty rad design...like a modern take on gaiking. for that price, it better be a foot tall.
Fort Max Posted November 23, 2007 Author Posted November 23, 2007 I'm sure it is a decent height, it's at least 20cm tall I seem to recall hearing. Twoducks, yeah, I'm praying for Bandai to even just announce one before I just buy this. And 1/1 core drill = awesome! It could really use a Giga drill tho...

ruskiiVFaussie Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 (edited) same here, no doubt! (heh, just noticed i made it to New Edwards base) Been a while! Edited November 25, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie
Fort Max Posted November 25, 2007 Author Posted November 25, 2007 They're not showing much of the Aesty that goes inside it. And Im surprised it's not been painted by now too.
Twoducks Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 That Chunky Spec is on my watch list. Hope we see more of the aestivalis soon. And more from the link posted by Tober: Cute, they include the house backpack. http://www.transformertoys.co.uk/content.p....jpg/image.html http://www.transformertoys.co.uk/content.p....jpg/image.html
wolfx Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 Somehow the gurren lagann impact model doesn't look as good as the prototype pics. Probably due to the glossy finish.
Fort Max Posted November 25, 2007 Author Posted November 25, 2007 I'm inclined (not to mention dissapointed) to agree, bye bye pre-order... So, where's yours then Bandai?
UN Spacy Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 I might have to agree with Fort Max here. Konami really isn't keeping my interest with these sub par shots of the Great Impact Gurren Lagann. For $170 Bandai could work WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONDERS with the license. It's too bad they might not have a crack at it for a while.
SuperHobo Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 Well I happen to like konami's high impact model. However I will agree that $170 for this toy is just not acceptable. If this was say $70 or maybe $90 I'd bite. I adore Gurren Lagann, but really I'm not willing to shell out money for every product out there. Right now the YF-21 and SOC Godmars is on the top of my list.

Fort Max Posted November 26, 2007 Author Posted November 26, 2007 I also think that the core drill being cheap tacky looking plastic is adding insult to injury over the price.
Ivan Posted November 28, 2007 Posted November 28, 2007 New out of package pics of SOC Baikanfu. Looks really good. http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...324&page=47
Jeremy007 Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 sweet holy crap...i need that figure. im just waiting for a US seller to have it and to read a good review of it.
Macross73 Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Both the Lagann and Baikanfu are nice but the Lagann figure is neat but not on my list of must haves nor was Baikanfu just dont know the history or anything so .... at least this leaves room on my shelf for other stuff
UN Spacy Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 I know a bunch of MW'ers have been waiting for this. Coming March 2008! Let's hope Bandai fixed the issue of the hip joints.
ShadowerV2 Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 Hey Sam! Here's your chance! Go go go go!
