BeyondTheGrave Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Because I'm not region one and buying Gurren Lagann on DVD in Europe costs 100 GBP - which is like 150 USD ... for 27 episodes of an anime I'll probably save up for it and buy it anyways... but the price just blows... Grouchy Pete Portable HD. is way to go then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roomate and a few buddies did. I forgot about it until it was too late to ask for time off. =( He was telling me about a "hidden treasure box" of them. I love it.

BeyondTheGrave Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 (edited) Kittan Zero and Gunmen Symphonia were my favs. How about you? Kittan zero, Gunmen Symphonia and The Sense of Wonder were all pretty good. The were like watching someones acid trip animated. Edit: Or a tribute to previous Gainax productions.

wolfx Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I loved Kiyal's Magical Theme. Hahaha. I'd so watch a whole series about that. Kittan Zero: epic....loved it. Kittan Kick! Sense Of Wonder: were they lord genome's sex slaves or something? Dai Gurren Goodbye: wished i understood the subtitles. Pretty sad though. Gunmen Symphonia: errr...ok Ore no XXX wa Uchu Hitotsu: wait what.....someone high on drugs? Big Building: Someone's DEFINATELY high on drugs.

one_klump Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) I already own the series, but hot damn I am so going to buy the second movie. There was so much awesomeness in it my TV may asplode. Gah, the Anime Legends of Gurren Lagann is already out? $40 for the complete series, not bad at all. Anyone who was on the fence about buying the series should definitely jump on this.

VFTF1 Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 No - I haven't. But all of my figures are from the original series - my SOC Spec EVAs are all based on the original, as are my revoltechs. If I go and buy 2.0, I'll be struck by a mental dysonans between the content of my toy collection vs. the content of my DVD collection. Besides, I really like the original from beginning to end and want to have it on DVD :-) Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UN Spacy Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 That version KA was full of FAIL. Who cares...glad I canceled my preorder. Check out the video below...this one's got some wicked articulation AND it's packed the the gills. Size: approx. 145mm tall Materials: ABS, PVC, PA Set contents: - Main body - Gurren Boomerang - Drill - Drill (long) - Gurren Wing - Weapon-holding hands (L/R) - Open hands (L/R) - Fist (L/R) - Pointing finger parts (L/R) - Nose parts - Arm retention parts - Display base Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anime52k8 Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 that's cool that you can copy-past marketing speak from store listings. That still doesn't explain why this is over $100 before shipping when it's less than 6 inches tall with zero diecast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slaginpit Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Here's my review of Sentinel's Riobot GL. Looks like a work of art. I have it on preorder. I have their Dephine 2nd type which is amazing and the egineering is better than some takara stuff at a larger size point. I am interested to see how this will compare to my SOC GL from Konami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeyondTheGrave Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Gurren lagann Blu-Ray set Cost 63,000 yen (about US$721). But it supposedly has an english dub/sub for the series. and sub only for movies. along with all the parallel works 5 cds and other stuff.

Marzan Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Aniplex really goes for the hardcore collector market, don't they? I hope 63,000 yen is retail price and that it can be gotten cheaper other places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
