DINO21AvP

Thanks Lain, those figures looked really cool too, but of course the stores here never get any good figures. Oh and his name is Yusuke. :)lol thats it, I watched some of the yu yu anime, not a favorite of mine, but i saw the figure while browsing one day , and it was only like $7-$8 so i got it to help liven my anime fig collection a bit, it came with a cool base, and a little penguin/rabbit looking creature, forgot its name . seems like its pu pu, or something like that :p the figure is pretty nice tho, good articulation, and a pretty decent sculpt .

Lainovion
10-13-2004, 08:35 PM
i have seen the yu yu figs that your talking about avp, they were very similar to the series that dino posted, seems like yusuke was wearing a green shirt tho, but i didnt get any. And the only dbz fig i have is my favorite character in the series piccolo . :)

chubs, i havent ordered anything from the uk, the only international ordering I have done so far is your home Canada, and Japan. Usually when it comes to anything overseas, or anything that passes multiple countries/customs shipping is high.

ya...i picked up my macross valkyrie frum...malaysia? cant remmeber...but those damn street fighter figs have been in custom limbo for the past couple of weeks so i'm planning on odering a ryu frum the uk...so i'm guessing the shipping should cost at most...15 canadian dollars...which would b around 12 dollars us...

I have the Kenshin and Tomoe PVC figures like the one above, I feel bad for not getting the two shinsengumi members now they are harder to find. It would be nice if they made new PVC figs of the last OVA with a new blue/green shirt Kenshin and older Kaoru.

haha..btw have any of u read any of the aliens vs predator novels? im readin sum right now, now i see where tiki-man got all the yautja languange words
Yeah back when I was younger I used to read all of them.

And the AVP novel was great, just think about how cool it would be to see 5 Preds getting owned by Aliens instead of just 3 like in the movie. The Grid Alien was way cooler in the book too, not that he wasent in the film (he took out two Preds by himself)!:cool:

So i was browsing HLJ, and saw that a set of gashapon from the anime Mai-Hime are due sometime this month. What is Mai-Hime you say? Good question. It's actually a brand new anime that's first episdoe JUST aired in Japan last weekend. The episode has since been subbed and is available for download. I downloaded, and watched it, and enjoyed it. I really like the character designs. not sure what its about really yet, but they say its a typical highschool girl story, but with some really good action scenes. So at least we know it should be something different from anything we've seen.

They had no pic, (much like them not having a pic of the new set of Naruto gashapon coming soon, which I have been dying for a look at), but seeing how i love the character designs, I went searching, thinking maybe another site would have them. And as luck would have it, it DID point me to a new site. While they didnt have a pic of the actual figs, they did have concept art for the figs.

http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0SACJAqEVixz6N1Q66!aVwtobBc0JMriMqUQuIM2e4HYk5v*uZpLhz*JVnHDh7igV54VTVn5lHJF1QZhA!FoHQAJ2ppwkhxdH5576T1KLSJEzAAAAynIFAg/maihimefig.JPG?dc=4675492509968070095

Now, I only know the top 3 characters, as we werent introduced to the others yet in the show. So time will only tell if I care about the others, or heck, even these 3, or the show all together for that matter. But the show looks has, and I like the characters designs, so it's going to be tempting.

Hey Nick I found these that are coming out in December http://store1.yimg.com/I/rsc-online_1815_9427284


Also I'm so pleased with how those unpainted Naruto figures look so far. I don't know about you but I felt really let down by series 4. They just weren't as dynamic as the previous ones.

Hey Nick I found these that are coming out in December
http://store1.yimg.com/I/rsc-online_1815_9427284


Also I'm so pleased with how those unpainted Naruto figures look so far. I don't know about you but I felt really let down by series 4. They just weren't as dynamic as the previous ones.
sweet! they look great. Episode 1 and 2 are good, hopefully we'll be introduced to more characters soon, and I'll like the show enough to get that set! :)

Also, I was let down by series 4 as well. Even the proto's looked a little off but OK, but when they finally came out, some of the live pics i saw of them on eBay looked absolutely horrid. So I still havent tried to get a set. Think I may get them eventually to be complete, but the only one i really want from the set is Naruto. But so far, series 5 looks to be great. Hopefully we'll get some painted pics soon.


Do any of you guys have this Ai Yori Aoshi set?
http://i3.ebayimg.com/03/i/00/99/a7/d8_1.JPG

They look nice but a little plain. Did they ever make a figure of Aoi in her kimono?
I have this set, and like it a lot. The sculpts are great and they all look dead-on. Perfect representations of the characters. As far as I know, it's the only gashapon set theyve made. No regular size figures, but i think there are one or two PVC statues/figs of Aoi, in (or halfway out) of her kimono...

Lainovion
10-16-2004, 06:55 PM
sweet haul chubs, glad you got ur ryu you wanted ;) and im having a blast making something that me and vegeta discussed. You know those anime music videos where you sometimes see VS like there is a vash vs spike that vegeta mentioned, im currenlty making Wolfwood VS Gungrave, lol a vegeta idea, lol going good so far, no music added yet, i may have it up to view on my crappy home page later tonight, and btw if anyone has a link with various gungrave pics that is much needed at the moment ;)

chubbychicken
10-16-2004, 07:02 PM
thanks lain i couldnt help it cuz i was waiting for these for a while...theyre were suppose to ship this week but theyre still stuck in customs so they wont b out till end of this month so i jus went ahead n bought it frum the UK...1st time i bought sumthing in a while...its been a couple weeks since i bought action figures haha like i said this time i'm dun buying random things...jus gonna keep buying SF,trigun, and inuyasha n thats it...i even passed up on sum animated clone wars figures i saw today...this store got in votc stuff...but no boba n trooper...those 2 i would spend money on...but i passed up on the other votc and i passed up on animated yoda and clonetrooper which lok awesome...and how does this music viedo work? is it jus gonna b a bunch on pictures with music in the background?

Lainovion
10-16-2004, 07:12 PM
cool chubs, a animated yoda could make a perfect jaken custom, which i may resort to eventually if my current jaken custom doesnt work out....yea the anime music vid is a collaboration of pictures, and animation to make it all work together. nothing spectactular , but still pretty cool imo, i mean how many times do u get to see wolfwood fight gungrave ? lol at first when im finished it wont have any music to it, until i get the proper abilities to do so at least, lol .

SSJ4Vegeta
10-16-2004, 07:18 PM
chubs ep 7 was sweet and the dubbing aint bad at all. i dont mind watching their past infact i think its great that they do it like this. cuz now i get to know more about brandon and harry.

chubbychicken
10-16-2004, 07:47 PM
vegeta...if gungrave anime was jus bout beyond the grave then it woulda jus been sum other anime to me...but the story of brandon and harry was just so good...and wait till the last 8 eps...wen he gets to the main bad guys...really good action...and touching...depending on who was more close to brandon..and ya ur beginning to c how bunji looks up to brandon hey?...i loved their relationship too

lain...the anime yoda is in an awkward pose...but i dunno i guess u could work with it rite?...and ya send me it once ur finished i would like to c it! haha and lain...we havent seen wolfwood fight grave but its pretty damn close with binji and grave cuz bunji looks alot like wolfwood

SSJ4Vegeta
10-16-2004, 07:58 PM
hey chubs bunji returns in Gungrave OD. but yea this is starting to be my new favorite anime since Trigun and Sorcerer Hunters combined.

10-16-2004, 08:02 PM
serious?...hmm wen i c it i mite pick it up since its so cheap...did u kno they rereleased dbgt final bout? i saw it at walmart!...but no more random spending haha...my next haul will b sum homer j simpson pjs haha...trigun was alrite...it wouldnt b considered top 10 anime to me...and to me gungrave is 2nd place next to bebop...with inuyasha sitting in 3rd...then champloo in 4th thyen FMA in 5th

10-16-2004, 08:06 PM

yea the cut scenes are done pretty well, but u have to play the game as all 3 to understand everything a bit better.

chubbychicken
10-16-2004, 10:49 PM
is there jus the 3 characters 2 play? or r there any unlockable ones?...damn i really hope they do make a bunji and the blind dude figures after this game...and another grave figure i actually like this simple new design...give him the more human feel

SSJ4Vegeta
10-16-2004, 11:11 PM
i think its just those 3 but ill let u know once i beat it again as Billy. yea after playing the game id really like more figures. new Grave, RocketBilly, Juji, Bunji, Fangoram too. but make them Trigun size cuz i wouldnt wanna pay $50 for each of them.

chubbychicken
10-16-2004, 11:25 PM
the thing with grave is cuz hes bulky...hes barely bigger than the trigun figs..i mean wolfwood and vash r both lanky characters...and meryl is tiny...thats y gazelle will b quite expensive...like grave...cuz hes a bulkier character plus big accessories

SSJ4Vegeta
10-16-2004, 11:36 PM
yea thats true but monev was as much as grave though cuz he was cheap by $20. billy is not as bulky as anyone else i listed, but then fangoram would cost the most of them all. plus his gun is bigger than graves coffin. man fangorams cerberus gun is sweet.

chubbychicken
10-16-2004, 11:40 PM
hmmm...well lets not tell me who fangoram is till ive played the game haha...sounds like one crazy bad guy...and u put up a good point...but maybe its due to certain material used? i dunno...but yes monev is definitely cheaper by a bit...though he costs the same in canada...but hes bout 10 bucks diff in the US...but 2 people did sculpt grave...one for the figure one for the coffin among other things but that wouldnt make it that much more expensive...so no clue y grave was so much...but temjinRNA said gazelle will cost 65 bucks in japan...so ya...i hope we get gazelle by the end of january...or maybe jus maybe the same time as japan

SSJ4Vegeta
10-16-2004, 11:55 PM
yea i wont say anything about fangoram till u play the game chubs. but man i cant wait for gazelle everytime i see him i think of grave. but i guess im not really bothered too much about the price cuz either way, if more figures were made for gungrave id buy them.

So did anyone else catch the final episode of Wolf's Rain? I did. I have to admit, I wasn't a fan of the series when it first started airing on Adult Swim. It took a while for the basic story to set in & for me to understand what direction the show was heading toward. Now, it is easily one of my favorite all-time Anime. Such a unusual story with awesome characters. The finale was so great. The last few shows before the end were some of the most emotional episodes I've watched in any Anime. I don't want to talk too much about it just in case you guys haven't seen it. I do have a question about the end though.

Spoiler alert

It was great seeing all the wolves reunited again in the finale scene but now what? Look for Paradise again? If so, will they fail again because of Lord Darcia wolf's eye poisoning the newly re made Earth? Will they be successful this time or are they always cursed to fail their search for Paradise?







Like I said before, easily one of my top 5 fave Anime. Any figures in the works? Anyone know. This will definitely be an Anime series worth buying of DVD.

Also, READ OR DIE. What's up with that show? Has anyone seen it yet? It'll start airing next Saturday on Adult Swim.

UrashimaNick
10-17-2004, 05:02 PM
Read or Die was great. Make sure you've seen the 3 ep OVA first. The TV show starts off almost completely different, onlly making a one name reference to the OVA, btu about halfway through, they link the OVA and the TV show together absolutely beautifully.

I am a big fan. I have the OVA on DVD and watch it every now and then. I liked the TV show a lot, but at 24/26 eps, I cant afford to buy those DVDs just yet...

Mr.Mark, Ive been watching wolfs rain since it began airing also, and I saw the last ep last night as well. lol I was wondering the same thing about the ending myself. It ended, but it didnt finish so to speak. So what will happen next I wonder ? With such an ending do they plan to continue the series somehow ? And yes this is also one of my favorite animes of all time. At first everyone seemed to complain that they were dissapointed because it wasnt a true "Werewolf" type of characters, but they were never meant to be werewolves, they are simpily wolves, lol So i stuck with it, and im glad i did. I was also wondering about figures , I dont have any info that they are in the works, but i hope they do.

You know, Lain, I remember reading somewhere that many fans of Wolf's Rain in Japan were also left lost after the series wrapped up. So I heard the writers & animators went back & add 4 new shows to wrap things up in a neater package. I wish I remembered where I read this info tho. I don't much care, I liked the ending the way it is. It's up to you to decide.
Eva,did they really make figures?!?! That's awesome news. What are they gashapons? Let us know, please haha.
Also, I recommend getting the soundtrack to Wolf's Rain. It's so great, same guy who did Bebop, Yoko Kanno. My fave track is Hot Dog Wolf, great mix of guitar & violin. ;)

Some wishes I would have are Wolfwood from Trigun... same scale as Vash from McF... not having any Cowboy Bebop figures is a crime... and Ninja Scroll (from the movie)... a series of figs from Last Exile would be awesome... Witch Hunter Robin (Robin at least)... the 2 chicks from Noir... Vampire Hunter D... ok... I'll shut up now...

vegeta...ya the music is...i dunno its not jazzy or nehting its got its own feel...but its kinda typical BG music...but it works very well to convey the atmosphere of the show...like sum songs cuz show the innnocence of harry and brandon while others can show how close they r as friends...n enemies...its very good...and vegeta...this ending is totally diff frum the games ending...n the 2nd soundtrack is awesome...and did i say the ending theme is one of my favorite if not my most favorite anime songs...i jus totally love it...how it shows harry and brandon running together

Glad the package got there. Was everything ok with it? I hope so at that price, lol. And I got in the Lady Death Alive figure Saturday.

Spent yesterday in the hospital and had surgery today. The surgery was to have my gall bladder removed but it was scheduled. The stay yesterday wasn't. Now I'm home from work for 2 weeks to recover, lol. I'm sure I'll be going crazy sitting here for two weeks. And to make it worse, I'll probably spend too much money on Ebay, lol.

Chubs, I like the McF bike that came packaged, not in the boxset with Kaneda, only because that bike isn't accurate to the design....the bandai one is cool, its based on the manga though I think....there's two swingarms instead of one on the back wheel...

I owe the whole set of MGS 2 figures and the quality on raiden just fine but snake ...well mine came apart O_O almost like what some one would do to repaint a figure apart :P but he snaps back together....don't know if alot of MGS 2 snakes are like that...but if u ask me Snake from MGS 1 worth the price :) instead of MGS 2

So to answer your question Raiden Yes
MGS 2 Snake no
MGS 1 Snake YES

chubs, i have a solid snake fig comin from mgs2, should be here anytime so i can tell u about the quality then. but imo they look a lot better (quality wise) than avp, and ive not heard anything negative like the avp line.

and 316what - Have a great 2 wks off and get better :D

vegeta...champloo is awesome as well...but its more episodic then a continuing storyline...like bebop...where the episodes dont really connect...but its very very good...i'm waiting for more eps rite now cuz its being transfered frum one network in japan to another so it wont b back on till bout mid novemeber...and ya having to wait really sucks...glad i bought bebeop wen it was all out already...jus i had to wait every 2 weeks to get paid...so i usally bought as much bebop as i could with the budget i had haha

10-18-2004, 11:11 PM
uhmm it was about a half week ago or so, and it was like 21-21 shipped usd, and mgs was easy to play chubs ! ;) in fact its a lot easier to play than ff games imo

chubbychicken
10-18-2004, 11:13 PM
haha i dunno i didnt have the patience to learn how to play it...and i'm really used to playing rpg games....so i guess FF would b easier...wow jus looked at sum pics of these mgs2 figs...very nicely done

Lainovion
10-18-2004, 11:15 PM
yeah the snake from mgs2 looks way better than snake from mgs imo, i need the ninja from mgs , would u belive i saw almost all those figs before and passed , yeah even the ninja, snake, etc , lol

chubbychicken
10-18-2004, 11:21 PM
...i'm able to pick up the clear variants of snake an ninja frum mgs1 if i wanted at a comic shop...cept i didnt ask the price n they charge alot for rare figs (65 CDN for deadpool) so ya...but the 2nd snake looks alot better in my opinion...but i'm buying these 2 figs for my brother...but hes kinda cheap so left n option open for him...n thats 2 split it..so watever fig he wants i'll take the other haha...i dont care...just as long as my ryu comes in this week!...i swear if it comes in like 2 weeks later and i jus opened the package...only to get a call frum my comic stores saying they jus got in to SF figs...i would jus drop and cry...cuz i paid bought 30 USD jus to get this ryu figure early!!!...haha...but i did buy the 1 per case grey ryu variant so i guess it was worth it

SSJ4Vegeta
10-18-2004, 11:32 PM
but chubs the sf come in this week. didnt u know that already??? nah just messing with u but i hope they come in this week while i still have cash b4 the con this friday. im just wanna get Chun-li and Ryu plus i talked to the owner of the shop and he'll be holding the chun li variant for me when they come in.

10-18-2004, 11:39 PM
vegeta...haha i read the SF forums at action-figure.com....the president of sota toys regualrly posts there...thats where he gets all his inputs on wat should b dun to figures and wat should b changed...thats y the SF figs r so damn perfect...but ya the figs were scheduled to b out this week...they shoulda been in stores this week already but due to the custom thing in cali theyre stuck there...actually i think theyre actually finally heading to the store tomorrow...or so the president of sota toys says...and he says the figures r due to hit stores by oct 31...so i'm gonna pick up my regualr white ryu and a sagat for sure...gonna pass on the rest though...hope u get them vegeta...i need sumone to talk to bout these wicked figs! haha

chubbychicken
10-18-2004, 11:41 PM
lain...haha well like i said i dont collect nething outside of inuyasha,trigun and SF now rite...so mgs would b outta the picture...but he doesnt work rite so ya i figured i would help him out but he mite want both so watever...but if not i'm cool with splitting it with him...cuz both snake and raiden look wicked so i dont care which i get...and as for the ryu thats coming in...ya i dont care...i really really want this fig...cept its been delayed so many times so i figured i would jus buy the variant for a bit more furm the UK to keep me frum going off the cliff for the next couple of weeks...and yes one of the ryus will come out...and possibly sagat will come outta the box

ya its not bad...i woulda liked it better if they jus came out here already haha...but i personally like the white one alot more...but seeing as th the grey is a 1 per case variant i'm fine with spending 30 USD for it...canadas currency went up again...so i gotta get used to calculating rates again!! keh

Lainovion
10-18-2004, 11:56 PM
lol yea those are sweet figs indeed really great way to keep the sculpt with articualtion . and yeah if vegeta knows of a place in the usa for 22 and u paid 30 from uk, u got a good deal on the ryu

chubbychicken
10-19-2004, 12:01 AM
no no...i spent 30 USD on it...so thats 37 CDN...so i paid more than wat vegeta heard the figure was gonna go for...ya the figures look great...another reason y i really like this line is cuz the people who make the figs take time to listen to people...i mean the president of sota toys constantly posts on the SF forum on the other site...and hes not jus sum guy who makes decisions...he also was the one who sculpted sagat...n look at sagat...the guy looks awesome

Chobits figures: (Yuzuki revealed)

We've seen Chii before, and she looks pretty good. I didnt get far enough in the anime to give two ****s about Yuzuki or know her importance in the story at all. So I'll more than likely pass on her with no problems.

and even though i'm not all that excited since its an anime i dont LOVE as i do most anime's, i can honestly say that these are fantastic representations of the source material

I mean I hate not being able to be snake for most of the game (btw tha spec ed mgs2 for xbox allows u to play as snake during raidens part), but i thought raiden was a fresh way of playing mgs , and i liked the way it seperated the game between snakes, and raidens part almost like 2 seperate games. but yeah it did get a lil whiney with him and his gf, but that somersault move he had rocked ! and when uget the katana that was too sweet , lol .

no cosplay is disgusting...dont do it haha...OH and check out samurai champloo if u can too vegeta...u'll like it!...and hentai fest? u serious? there was this r rated room of mystery thing rite...me and my cuzin went in n left my friend outside waiting cuz he couldnt go in...we thought it was like berserk showing or sumthing like hentai so we thought we would go in and c wat it was...n they were playing hajime no ippo (fighting spirit)!...which was pretty good but r rated? i dont think so...it was really interesting...i would get into the anime but theres ben over 100 eps so i'm not gonna bother
