Wow guys thanks for the help! I haven't seen the show since late 1980's so haven't even seen the two OVA's and Movie, getting them on Blu-ray is pretty expensive with the series costing $600 , but I'm looking into other options....

 

 

I didn’t see the show until getting a bootleg in the late 90’s. Although I’d seen odd kits and toys in odd shops here in the U.S. since the 80’s and was always fascinated by the designs. The ova and movie releases I think were and maybe still be on one of the oddball streaming services like retro crush. Might be worth checking into because a free trial might be totally worth it.

HMR Fatty and Bloodsucker at Tamashii Nations are welcome to see! Bloodsucker will go great with that LRS TC!

The bloodsucker is still my favorite armored trooper. It’s kinda like if Votoms crossed with Darth Vader

Don't you just hate it when they tease us with "Display Only" makes me want to fly to Japan and break all the windows at Bandai's head office...👹

 

Now this is better! 🤗

Although who ever decided to produce the FATTY over the Bloodsucker needs to have his head rearranged! 🤪

Bandai's 1/20 Turbo Custom kit from the Last Red Shoulder ova...

I could be wrong, but the Fatty doesn't seem to have the cockpit and pilot feature going for it?

[grogall]

Might still be an early prototype!? Hopefully they still have time to work on it...🤔

It also looks cheaply done with the big seams down the knee and thigh.

I’m pretty sure it is just the prototype. It looks a bit rough here, but I’m pretty sure it will get smoothed it and more than likely have a cockpit that opens.
