UN Spacy Posted March 11, 2008 Author Posted March 11, 2008 Yes. That is a lord genome's head in a can.
crasis Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 I just got my shipping notice from HLJ for the box (of 10) TTGL trading figures!! I'm so excited! I didn't even know these were out yet.

protostar8 Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 Anyone know what the scans in the Kaiyodo Revoltech thread says about the Gurren Lagann figures and the drill bits/wings version?
UN Spacy Posted March 27, 2008 Author Posted March 27, 2008 Konami's Chogokin Gurren Lagann! Coming April 24, 2008! Part I
UN Spacy Posted March 27, 2008 Author Posted March 27, 2008 Thanks to ToysDaily for the SCOPEDA! Part II
UN Spacy Posted March 27, 2008 Author Posted March 27, 2008 Gainax updated the GL movie website! It's hitting theaters THIS SEPTEMBER! http://www.gurren-lagann-movie.net/
Fort Max Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 It's looking very nice but there are gonna be a lot more Gurren Lagann toys to come and I have a feeling Bandai will SOC it at some point.
UN Spacy Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 That's EXACTLY why I'm holding off on purchasing it. New information for Gurren-Lagann's movie from Megami Magazine (THX to CSakuraS for translation) -It will be a reconstruction of the TV series with a lot of new cuts. -There's going to be more than one movie, but it will NOT be split up like Part 1: Simon as a boy and Part 2: Simon as a man. They won't make it like a straight summary either. "If we're going to tell a story, it will be told in battle. While throwing in new cuts, we plan on making it a work that has the surging hotness that you felt watching the TV version at the forefront." -Because the dialogue won't match up if they're doing a reconstruction, all of the dialogue will be newly recorded. -They would like to create more new works after the movie. They have many stories from the seven years after Lord Genome was defeated. If the movie is a hit, the possibility of them making more will become higher. -The movie will have music as its theme? (People on 2ch are speculating it might be like a professional MAD.) -They're creating several new animated works, a little of which will be shown at the Anime Fair. The staff will differ for each one. Each one will be short, but have the staff's hot feelings packed in. They're still unsure when they'll be able to get these to the fans. -It seems implied that Nia is the main heroine of the movie, because when asked about the female characters, he replies that it's sad that Yoko and the three sisters might end up in the background.
Fort Max Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Perhaps if enough peeps hold off on it it'll go on sale. Movie details sound good, more Gurren Lagann can only be a good thing imo.
UN Spacy Posted March 29, 2008 Author Posted March 29, 2008 A movie teaser was shown at TAF! B)) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nG4pOwO5JV8

B)) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nG4pOwO5JV8 J00 like....that's a shoko-tan PV...but its pretty good and GL-ish. Here's the movie promo trailer thingy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmj7n5ZErG8 Edited March 29, 2008 by wolfx

wolfx Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 So what was that actually about? Looked like just a boatload of clips. Shoko Nakagawa sang sora mimi days , the OP to Gurren Lagann....otherwise that looked like just a music vid for another song. Personally i feel japanese music videos are kinda boring and stupid and have nothing to do with the song they are singing but otherwise the songs can be pretty catchy.
UN Spacy Posted April 4, 2008 Author Posted April 4, 2008 I heard the GL Plamo was recently release, plus the Impact Model GL, and Great Impact GL, not to mention Revoltech GL. There's a WHOLE lotta GL figures coming this way in the next month.
crasis Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 There's a WHOLE lotta GL figures coming this way in the next month. Definitely. But more options is a good thing! Looks like the Great Impact Gurren Lagann diecast figure is out early: http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/viewthread...%3D1&page=1 And, damn, I thought the Revoltech figure would be enough to satisfy me, but this is looking incredible. DO WANT!

LinxCrossq Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 So ADV lost the license and now Bandai Ent. will be releasing Gurren Lagann. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-...lagann-tv-anime
crasis Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/convention...i-entertainment "Aniplex and Bandai Entertainment will be bringing out the North American release of Gurren Lagann. To get this highly anticipated anime out to fans as soon as possible, there will be two separate releases. In July, August, and September, the entire series will be brought out in a bare-bones sub-only format, at nine episodes per DVD. This will be followed in the first months of 2009 by a more standard release, containing both the original Japanese audio and a completely new English dub. Scenarios for online distribution are also being considered." Sub for me, please!
UN Spacy Posted April 19, 2008 Author Posted April 19, 2008 NINE per DVD!?!?!?!? Who the hell do you think I am?!?!?
Noriko Takaya Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 NINE per DVD!?!?!?!? Who the hell do you think I am?!?!? Could be worse. Bandai Visual could have gotten it and each volume would probably be around $100.00. But I'm glad it's coming. I'll get the subbed version as I do not need a dubbed one.
eriku Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Awesome news! I'll take the bare-bones sub only without a second thought.
wolfx Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 NINE per DVD!?!?!?!? Who the hell do you think I am?!?!? Really? Where does it say that?
GogDog Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 NINE per DVD!?!?!?!? Who the hell do you think I am?!?!? Won't the quality take a hit with that compression? On the other hand, it would make things cheaper...
Mercurial Morpheus Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 (edited) I assume these will be two disc sets. At least, they better be. More than five episodes is pushing it... EDIT Thank you, Paploo of ANN's boards, Bandai has a press release postedon AonDVD's forums, which mentions it'll be two-disc subbed sets at 29.98 each, released monthly starting in July. Edited April 19, 2008 by Mercurial Morpheus
Keith Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Won't the quality take a hit with that compression? On the other hand, it would make things cheaper... Those better be two disc sets, even Tekkaman Blade only pushed 7 eps.
Keith Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Could be worse. Bandai Visual could have gotten it and each volume would probably be around $100.00. But I'm glad it's coming. I'll get the subbed version as I do not need a dubbed one. 40$ per disc, and the quality would be much better.
Fort Max Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Sweet, so glad to hear that this back on the release books.
Necron_99 Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Nice! Hopefully they redo the subs none of that "galatic waterfall" $hit, or whatever it was.
Keith Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Nice! Hopefully they redo the subs none of that "galatic waterfall" $hit, or whatever it was. And with Bandai, we're sure to get "Gurren Brigade" instead of "Team Gurren."
Mowe Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 (edited) OMFG. I am 6 months late with Gurren Lagann but I just completed the entire series over the weekend. Just freaking awsome. So much hot-bloodness and GAR. It is what anime used to be After the final battle's "Gurren Lagann Russian Doll Sequence", I was so hyped, I felt the need to drill something...anime is alive again!!!!! My hat off to Gainax.
