Not "active"... but there's a Shirow Forum, hardly anyone posts though...http://www.takotech.net/forums/

Got a hold of a Perfect Piece JGSDF Arm Suit, which is in scale with the PP Tachikoma. Strange design, but neat and surprisingly posable. I had never seen a non-stock photo of this guy until I took them myself.

The Megahouse Type 303 is really nice but since my Tachikomas are the 1/24 WHAM variety, I decided to get the same scale armed suit. Then, just for the heck of it I put some black 'blu tack' and suspended my blue Tachi on the ceiling of the glass shelf :-)

I guess that's ONE advantage of the super-light WHAM figures!

If you really want it, it can still be found for ~ original retail price ~ 150-175 USD. If the shop is in Hong Kong, pm me and I can help you out.

I need to re-shuffle my cabinet so will post pictures of the GSC and Fewture version later, but it has been posted in the last page. I think 1/18 scale is awesome as it looks good with the resin Appleseed Landmates, GI Joes, HT Aliens, Appleseed and Predator snap kits (says 1/20 but are really close to 1/18) and are a nice size, but the next step up needs to be 1/6 to get my blood pumping.

No more weird 1/15, 1/12, 1/10 or 1/7 scale... Its usually within a few inches away from either 1/18 or 1/6 for not more money.

I feel the same. Great looking figure, but somehow doesn't look like her. (perhaps just the angle of the face?!)

Nah. She just look too happy. Not the "I'll be happy to beat your face into the concrete" King-Kong Kusanagi happy. Doesn't have that hint of violence under the smiling eyes.

EDIT: Hmm. Just need the eyes to tighten a bit, and the mouth to turn down a bit.

I wonder how that navel manages to suck the cloth in though. IIRC, the hostler is a bit too high, IIRC it is more towards the belt level?

Motoko can have a real feminine side right? :p

And while late and overdue but to Drifand - your collection is amazing... I need to re-shuffle my display to be more like yours.

PS: Fewture Gokin GITS 2nd Gig Tachikoma with batteries finally inserted (2x AA) under low light conditions. I think it looks great with the LEDs but too bad you cannot open the control pod since that is the battery housing. Control pod cannot be removed either and ball joints are loose! I need to figure out how to take the legs off and add some resistance to the joints for better posing strength. Overall, I love it for the weight, beautiful paintjob and it's character. When I have time, I will compare it to Captain America's custom 1/18 Tachikoma kit.

Ghost In The Shell SAC Figma figure? Why not Arise?

I'm just happy there's a figure of her at all. Been hoping for Figma to get around to making one for years.

But yeah, an Arise version would be great. Her new look's grown on me.

I wonder if a movie version is in the works as well.
