Back in the 80’s and early 90’s they had that great mix of trash and treasure. Now it’s just trash more than anything unfortunately. But I remember the good old days of finding so much odd stuff that you weren’t sure what to spend the cash on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Display shown during Summer 2023 Hobby Manufacturer Merchandise Showcase. Price and release date to be determined. I'm trying to decide whether to hold out for the MegaHouse reissue or to just get the Hi-Metal version now. Can anyone that has seen both in person chime in? I'm wondering how the size/cost and quality/cost ratios between the two compare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These days, all the vendors are carrying the same crap (iPhone cases, etc). Back in the 80s, you can get some cool Taiwan goodies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since they didn’t finish the series dubbing I only watched the subtitles version. In fact the first time I saw the show it was a bad subtitle version, so this was definitely an upgrade. I wouldn’t mind if they did a decent dub since I’d rather watch than read especially since the animation looks great for the most part. 😃 On 8/13/2023 at 4:02 PM, glane21 said: I watched Orguss back in the 80s on 3rd generation vhs copies with no subs. I was still able to follow the overall story and become very invested in the characters by the last episode, which has a unique ending to say the least. You’ll enjoy it. Thank you.

no3Ljm Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Magazine scan of MegaHouse Variable Hi-Spec ORGUSS reissue. March 2024 release. Y41800. In case anyone is wondering how much it was back in 2015, it was priced at Y38500 (Japan tax included). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKT Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 That is actually not too bad a price, if considering it is just a small increase from back then. But is it worth double the HMR’s price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandman Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Yes! Finally able to get the megahouse version. Though on further thought i wonder if i even care? The hi-metal may be enough Orguss for me. Anyone have both? Is the Megahouse substantially better than the hi-metal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
