I actually considered Mazinger 1901 in Old Exterminator's place for Arena, but it would have required Corwin to have spent the previous several months on Ishiyama studying the local tech base as a consultant for Kanzaki Heavy Industries, and he's still got school at that story's timeframe. Maybe later. :) --G. -><- Benjamin D. Hutchins, Co-Founder, Editor in Chief, Netadmin Eyrie Productions, Unlimited http://www.eyrie-productions.com/

Think of it as a really heavily modified RX-78 or -79. One that Kohran got her hands on :) I really want one. Too bad the only mecha models around here are Gundam Wing. Matrix Dragon, J.

>Too bad the only mecha models around here are Gundam Wing. Better than what we have up north, theres a small secondhand bookshop in Cairns that has some of the Eva units, but thats it.

>Lucky you! EVA units are EXCEPTIONALLY rare here... >but we do have a wide selection of gundam which is >not so bad..... I'd be luckier if I had AU$60 (about US$35) that I could afford to spend on one :) Maybe I should get one before I move south, I have no idea where I could find one in Brisbane...

>Which one would you want to buy? if you could? Probably Eva-01, it's always been my favourite. Despite what happens to Touji in episode 8(?), I can't help but smile when the Beast II song kicks in and the dummy plug takes over.

>>Which one would you want to buy? if you could? > >Probably Eva-01And Eva-01 is the one that I got! Its really cool, comes with a pistol, extra clip, knife, the assault rifle and even a little Kaoru :) Also included was an alternate head (berserker mode) and an umbilical cable (with a small plug for the hole if you take the cable out) It's currently sitting on top of my printer and pointing the pistol at me :) R6 ---------------------- Adam Johnson RCW #007 ---------------------- |

I bought a Limited Model, High Grade Eva 01 in korea for the approx equivalent of $33. Boy, the time spent on the plane trip home seemed a lot shorter than the trip to there. Anyway, after I built it, I realized I should've painted it, but the strange thing is, is that it looks good despite a lack of a paint job. At the moment, it's lounging on a CD rack, because I put its weapons and cord in a box, so as to not lose them. I tell you, these BanDai models were high quality, and I plan on getting the whole line of units when i go back this year. -------------------------------- In the event of an emergency, please drop your pants and run around like a chicken with its head cut off. |

>I really want one. Too bad the only mecha models around here are >Gundam Wing. Have you tried any of the online stores? I've done business with Hobbylink Japan, Robozone, and BigBadToyStore and fond all three reliable and accomodating. That was a year or two back now, due to less cash available for toys lately, but I don' imagine that would have changed. - CD
