IIRC, he also did a VF-17, but the pictures of it are no longer up.

I believe that's one of Gla Gla's. Here's some other stuff he's done: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=Glagla Another cool one, with couple neat micro-scale takes on the YF-19 and 21: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=zizy2

Considering that they started out as a radio play script, I don't think they should be hard at all. Plus, as you've already mentioned, they've already been done as a TV series. I don't think a movie will be a problem. Personally, I think the first couple of books are really fun. The last couple should be avoided like the plague.

Speaking of the anime.......how many were released? Is the one released by ADV the newest series? ADV released New Cutie Honey, which was an OVA from the mid-nineties.

What no T&A? Not interested then . Graham T&A, but no nudity.

You forgot to mention the really great Go Nagai cameo. This movie was fun. They actually tried making it a live action anime. It's a lot less risque than the the recent OVA though.

Mistranslation on someone's part. It's not colorized, but an un-cropped version of the episode (the animation was cropped to give it an epic widescreen appearance). The original version is included mind you, but there's also an extra uncropped version included as well. Okay. This makes a lot more sense than colorizing. Thanks.

Just put in my order to CD Japan tonight for the re-mastered set (had to wait till the holidays got over to do it). To those who have it already, what's this I hear about the last episode being colorized?

This is cool. I want one. There was a guy in the States I remember reading about who built a big Battletech robot in his back yard for his kids to play on.

Um... they actually mention the movie in the TV series. Dawson mentions Conor killing the Kurgan... the only thing thrown out about the movie was that Conor and the Kurgan were the last two immortals... and how could it be a prequal when Duncan killed Conor in Endgame? The TV series was better then the movies anyways... so what does it matter if it dosn't conform to the movies. Meaning no disrespect to Chris Lambert (I'm a fan) but the movies jut don't hold a candle to the series. Sorry if I wasn't being clear. I know the TV series acknowledges the movie, which is why it sucks. Sequals should never invalidate the original. The movie established that Conner was the last one and that the whole thing ended with his killing the Kurgan. The TV series coming along and throwing this out the window was just asinine. And no, the TV series was not better than the movie (the ones after I could couldn't give a rat's ass about).

No dub doesn't bother me in the least, but from a business stand point, it does seem odd. And after years of arguing that companies like Viz need to offer fans their choice of format, I have to say I don't think it's a good decision.

Official TV series Katana... the TV series is the best part of Highlander... why is there no Signature sword for Amanda? And Endgame would have been better if Amanda was in it. The TV series might have been good had it been clearly stated to be an alternate reality from the movie or (as someone above mentioned) a prequal to the movie. As it is, the fact that it just throws the movie out the window means it blows goats and is best ignored completely. There are no sequal movies.

The Starbird was one of my favorite toys when I was a kid. It was a starship that made cool sounds and could come apart and be reconfigured in different modes (such as a shuttle). The litttle gray things on the end of its wings are fighters. I really wish I still had it. It got played with quite a bit and eventually ended up getting thrown away after a few years of abuse from me.

http://tv.cream.org/extras/toys/index.html Probably one of the best lists I've seen. It's nice to see description for the items (some being pretty funny), and lots of nostalgia here. I found myself going 'holy crap, I forgot about that!' a lot. The site is Brittish, so not everything quite matches up for us in the US, but for the most part there wasn't a lot of differences.

Sorry. These have already been posted.

Otaku no Video? Correct. Your turn.

Man, I so want this toy. Can't wait for it to show up this Spring.

Bah! Fine then. In what anime is the question asked, "How many crew members are there on the starship Enterprise?"

D'oh. Yeah, 6" is what the figure is. Wasn't thinking.

Considering that they're selling a 3" action figure to go with it, I assume so.

Someone said earlier in the thread that that's the designer's personal website.

Is this US or Japan?

I'd seen it at a local game/comic shop. I should grab it. I'm a big AFMBE fan.

Just remember: it can't be worse than the Christmas Special.

Actually, from what I've heard mentioned by people who live there, New Zealand is pretty strict when it comes to censorship.
