Never seen anything like it. So, is she worth 55 Mifune? ;)

I bet she's inscale with those Gymnastic figures. I also wonder if all Giga Pulse's figures are gonna be that small?

Mifune

nope the gynastic r a bit smaller than ren and it all depends on u if shes worth $55........of course she retails for only $30+ but after all the shipping fees the value of her becomes quite a blur. personally i think she is, cuz shes the first detailed fig wit all the female characteristics that ive seen. im pretty sure u wont be disspointed.


btw...................................

Mifune
01-07-2006, 02:41 PM
no. its hard to find her as it is...........ghost in the shell products is actually not as popular in taiwan as i thought, so finding her for only $18 was a bombass deal.

impalerprince
01-07-2006, 02:48 PM
I'm suprised she isn't being imported.

Actually i thought she was.

Mifune
01-07-2006, 02:49 PM

Meh, Gundam.

These aren't models per se, but they are nice and large. Larger than any Gundam i've ever seen.

Meh, Gundam.

Yeah, I've noticed you don't like the Gundams. I don't blame you.......most of them look boring displayed, some are really kool though! The fun part is building them and then later...showing them off! Other than that, they really aren't that great! :p

I doubt it since it's pretty old now, but I was wondering if any of you have come across this statue of Rock Howard (from Fatal Fury Garou: Mark of the Wolves) doing his victory pose on any online shops. I finally got my grail for Xmas and this is the next biggest thing on my list to get. I regret not getting it back when Diamond offered it in 2004.

01-07-2006, 08:53 PM
Wow....that is pretty sweet! And I bet it's worth a shiny gold coin or two! :D

It's only 8" tall and it was $64.99US when Diamond offered it. I really didn't have the money at the time so that's why I passed.

On a sidenote, the new King of Fighters episode starred Rock Howard. It was only like 7minutes long though. Animation was done by Production I.G, the people who did Ghost in the Shell . If any of you happen to like KOF then pm me and I'll send you a link for it.

Dann of Thursday is from the series Gun X Sword, a slightly tongue-in-cheek, western/sci-fi themed anime show about the adventures of a wandering drifter with a mysterious past named Van who is somehow in control of one of the most powerful mecha on the planet: Dann.

He's accompanied by a girl named Wendy, who's on a quest to find the man who murdered her brother. Van's the loner type and the only reason he lets Wendy tag along is that the murderer of Wendy's brother may also have been the man who murdered Van's wife.

The backdrop of the story the planet "Endless Illusion" where virtual anarchy reigns (typical lawless Wild West set-up) and mecha are fielded by the very few who have the resources and skills to maintain and use them.

While the production values are fairly high, the show itself is rather derivative and unfortunately suffers from the "villain of the week" formula. I only got partway through season 1, then lost interest. Maybe it'll get better second season--- if it sees a second season.

IIRC, Dann is housed in some sort of unmanned orbital station (origin unknown) and when summoned by Van, Dann is dropped from orbit into the theatre of operations in sword form before switching to humanoid form upon reaching the battlefield.

Edit: T&A factor (http://ningen.nattoli.net/downloads/gun_sword_01-1024.jpg) (Wendy and Carmen99)

01-08-2006, 08:23 PM
isnt there semi auto ones?

impalerprince
01-08-2006, 08:28 PM

Which Rolling Stones song did they steal the stuff from?

Mr. Bungle
01-09-2006, 01:33 PM
The Verve and The Rolling Stones : Truly Bittersweet
The now defunct British outfit The Verve sampled an orchestration on their song "Bittersweet Symphony" from The Rolling Stone's "The Last Time". Before the release of the album, The Verve negotiated a licensing agreement with The Rolling Stones to use the sample -- at least the composition rights to the sample. In 1997, The Verve's album "Urban Hymns" peaked at number 23 on the Billboard Charts. What ensued was a bitter (and not sweet) legal battle resulting in The Verve turning over 100% of the royalties to the Rolling Stones. The Rolling Stones argued that The Verve had violated the previous licensing agreement by using too much of the sample in their song. The Verve argued that The Rolling Stones got greedy when the song became successful. Herein lies the issue of moral rights of a samplist.

"The last thing I ever wanted was for my music to be used in a commercial. I'm still sick about it", The Verve's lead singer Richard Ashcroft said in a recent interview. So, that's exactly what Rolling Stones manager Allen Klein did. Capitalizing off the success of the song, Klein licensed The Verve's "Bittersweet Symphony" to Nike, who proceeded to run a multi-million dollar television campaign using The Verve's song over shots of its sneakers. Klein also used the song to hawk Vauxhall automobiles. Additionally, though the song was authored by The Rolling Stones, the Andrew Loog Oldham Orchestra performed the sampled recording and also filed suit upon the success of the song. (Herein lies a fine caveat to license both the recording and composition rights from whomever maintains them.) To add even more insult to injury, when "Bittersweet Symphony" was nominated for a Grammy, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were named the nominees and not The Verve. What could be more "Bittersweet" than your song reaching the top of the charts and not being able to enjoy a cent of its success?

"It could've been worse," Ashcroft continued. "If we hadn't fought, 'Symphony' could've ended up on a cheeseburger ad and never have been taken seriously again." Yum.

The Sherman is a boring looking tank. Plus Germans could take them out any number of ways. German tanks were intimidating. Not so much the Sherman.

Mifune
01-09-2006, 04:04 PM
hahaha ya i saw that on the history channel, if i remember correctly, the only reason that sherman tanks wouldve won any battle was becuz of their number, not the tanks itself

impalerprince
01-09-2006, 04:07 PM
Later models were fitted with a high-velocity 76mm gun, so that helped, plus the British had a version called the Firefly that had an even bigger gun.

But the early models with just the 75mm were pathetic. Their rounds simply bounced of the German tank hulls.

The rear wheel should pivot, that sticker is anyones guess, but i don't think it belongs on it. The dive sirens are actually on the landing gear skirts, those little props. I dig the shark mouth on the main bomb, and i think i'll put something wierd on mine, some insult in German or something.

Nah, it'll be a different 190 than the one i have.

Ya really should rethink your stance on the 109G, it's a beauty.

Nah, the quality is much better now. The one you had was 5 years old i think.

The doll set is excwellent. if i was Daddy Warbucks i'd have one too.

The rear MG in the Stuka was for the radio operator to provide covering fire. The Stuka wasn't particularly agile or fast.

o i guess im gonna havta check one out then...........ya i really enjoy the box set, i can c y it cost so high to begin wit. and i was asking wut type of gun it is...............id wanna say MG 34 for the look of the barrel and ammo drum........but the main gun assembly doesnt look like a MG to me

Oh, i misread. No, not a 34. It's a MG-15.


The Stuka that 21st sells has the 550 lb main bomb, with the four 110 lb bombs on the wings. MG-15 in the greenhouse and a MG-17 in each wing.
