Just added a new toy to my collection. Pleasantly surprised at the heft of the die-cast content, and pretty pleased with the aesthetics of the toy as well.

That's exactly it. When I was younger I would always be envious of the nice transformers, takatoku valkyries and what not other kids had. Now that I'm working and can afford to get these toys... I do so within my budget.

Give me more Metal Material Models!!! I love how heavy those things are. And yes... please make some Gasaraki toys! Although I do have the 3 Bandai models, but I have to work up the courage to start on them. Just have to learn how to paint.

Yes, let's not forget that importation can be a big part of the toy's cost. And on that note..... as far as Macross toys go.... there is a reason why we have to import it and pay a higher cost than we could have otherwise paid... Macross Licensing issues anyone?

Here's a color comparison..... Max is walking his cat. A ZOIDS Blade Liger

Hehe, you should ask him if they are going to make a 1/48 SDF-1 anytime soon.

YIKES!! Another 10 years? Geez. Anyway the thing is... 1)I don't have the hard drive space to download the eps 2)The TV out from my nVidia GeForce2 MX card absolutely REEKS! And no way do I wanna watch this on a tiny 21" monitor. 3)I would much rather buy them on dvd from anyone, as long as they're as good as those AonE and AnBu guys or whatever. 65" RPTV>>>>21" PC monitor. Link please! Well.. actually I burn the episodes to DVD in its DivX file format. Burning to CD will work too, but seeing as to how you can only fit 4 episodes to CD and the number of episodes there are... that's going to be a bit more work. Then I hook up my laptop to a TV and I can watch it on the big screen.

Naruto is good. I guess you'll have to keep dl'ing the fansubs from AonE which in my opinion are pretty good. Or you can buy those bootleg DVD's from stores like www.import-anime.com. I've been reading the manga.... and it seems like the anime is going to be airing on TV for the next few years in Japan. The manga is pretty far ahead of the anime. Oh Yeah.... Rock Lee RULES!!! (read the manga)

Hikaru taking after Chow Yun Fat, and Brandon Heat.

I've got the SOC's and let me just say...they're good stuff. Poseability is just awesome with these figures.

You're joking right? Actually... there is one. I think there was a picture on these boards a while ago.

Tetsujin 28 is definitely the Holy Grail of Godaikins/Popys. Not sure about all toys though, I'm pretty sure there is always something worth $$ out there. Anyway here's a Tetsujin 28 that sold for over $5,000! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...&category=19198

1/48? Geez I guess you really need a coffee table stand!

Arrrgh! I want to play Shenmue 3.... but not at the cost of buying a new system.

Why not? Well, I've got almost all the re-issues, so that will happen. But I don't feel like spending for the Taka Elint's, Super-O's, etc.

My top 10 is more toy lines than individual toys. And both wishlist, and works in progress. 1: Complete Bandai/Popy Godaikin line (It'll never happen) 2: Complete Bandai Soul of Chogokin Line 3: Complete Yamato Macross 1/48, 1/60 (including Monster whatever scale that is) 4: Complete Takara BinalTech Transformer Line 5: Complete Takara Collector's Series G1 Re-Issue Line (probably won't do this one) 6: Complete Bandai/Takatoku Macross 1/55 Line (again, it will never happen) 7: Masterpiece Convoy Optimus 8: Chogokin Metal Material Model Gundam Seed figures 9: Gundam Fix #13 Deep Striker 10: Mazinger AD 1901 Line

It is out. http://jungle-scs.co.jp/cgi-bin/goods.php?...SHAPON&keyword= Muahahahaha....they will soon be mine....as soon as I find a good price.

Naruto gashapons are pretty cool too. I've got the par 1 and part 2 sets, now I just need to get the part 3 set when it comes out.

I'm thinking Gelgoog or Zaku...which is scary because I really don't know anything about Gundam. It must be seeping into my mind via osmosis. That tends to happen.... I know all these names of some of the robots, and I know nada about the show that they were in.

Nevermind... i couldn't get the image to load up before working now...

Geez! where are you guys putting your 1/48's?!!! Right next to the edge for their first flight? I display mine at the rear of each shelf, since they're usually taller than the other toys. I'd hate to think of myh 1/48's crashing to the ground!

Optimus threatened you at gunpoint eh?

Hmmm... I need a house. Any chance that house is in OC?

that would be awesome!

Wasn't HeavyARms for Trowa?
