I am very impressed with the likeness for the Koska Reeves head sculpt. Really happy with this figure for what is offered and not complaining about the single knee and elbow joints.

Prior to this I thought of getting the Kotobukiya bishoujo version, but Pop Up Parade happen to announce theirs & I thought I’ll save a bit to have a decent representation of her. Likely will get Lilith too to pair them up & then am done (hopefully!) with Darkstalkers. Fighting games was such a big part of my younger days so am just aiming to have a piece or two here & there from various titles. 7 hours ago, Zeliard said: Now U need a Mai Shirouni Haha I am actually tempted to get one. Again the Kotobukiya one looks great, but Pop Up Parade will also be releasing her in a few months. Though, I don’t much like her sculpt - details looks a bit too soft even for a budget figure so am holding back. Might change mind later..

I had one of the old Banpresto Morrigon figures and the Moby Dick Capcom Queens Morrigan figures years ago which I parted with. Edited March 19 by shazam

Chronocidal Posted March 21 Posted March 21 13 hours ago, scand said: One day i am gonna give in and get that Klan Klan. Fun fact, that kit is unironically one of the most sturdy renditions of a VF-25 with super packs you can get. Proportions are a little weird due to the way it's designed to transform and support the figure, but it's not bad at all. It also builds up into a pretty decent figure of Klan herself (and it's great she can just wear the super packs like in the series), but I think the proportions and face wind up making her look more like a mid-point between her older and younger selves.

This is unlike the chunky VF-1 or the Gakken Legiosses...

I have virtually all of the Takatoku versions (1/100, 1/60, 1/40) and am quickly becoming one of those quirky Orguss collectors who collects every curiosity ever made of the line. I think I even have a kite somewhere, or wanted to get one. You know, table cloths, napkins and the like. Well, maybe haven't gone that far. But a big Orguss fan nonetheless.

I have always liked the Orgroid design. It's great to know that you have collected most if not all of the Takatoku Toys as well as many other products from the past. They are certainly harder to come across these days. I like that Megahouse is re-releasing the Orgroid. I am still chasing down the Bandai Hi-Metal Orgroid as well. I should of got one when they first come out. One of my favorite anime intros of all time is from Orguss 2.

One of my favorite anime intros of all time is from Orguss 2. I can't take credit for that level of collecting I suggested in the first post. I think I actually stopped at the kite and realized that all of the successive granular levels of collecting, all the way down to the Mark Robo and Select Convertors versions of the Orguss Orgroid, was just getting out of hand, and my instinct to grab the kite was the last straw. My natural survival instinct as a collector-cum-drug addict kicked in and I just stopped. It's been my one saving grace as a human being preventing me from falling into the pits of financial despair, whilst preventing a great collection from materializing. Alas, we have to live. Like the intro. Nothing beats 80's anime. I look at even some of the 80's cartoons like Thundercats, GI Joe and Tformers, and they're peerless. Nothing beats that Thundercats intro. Maybe Silverhawks does.

Off the subject a little, but this OP is.. probably one of the most bizarre pieces of music I've ever heard, and I'm wondering if it's just me? It sounds like two or three separate songs, all in different key signatures and styles, playing over each other. I honestly cannot pick out a melody.
