@mage ,
Yeah, Jon did a really interesting set of unboxings on their November box and I’ve been umming & ahhing over whether to give it a go, so this month took a punt. Gotta say I’m impressed so far.
And just went in to manage my account and they have a referal scheme. Anyone fancy giving it a go then here’s £1.50 off 🙂

Well this is my box’o’Gunpla:
Bit of a mixed assortment as I’ve been adding them to my HLJ warehouse account for the last few months, so there is a VERY orange gunner from the latest Gundam Build tv series, 2 suits from Gundam Wing – the generic Leo and the bombastic Tallgeese (in stunning RG format), from Gundam Seed Destiny the Akatsuki in all it’s gold-platedness, and finally a pair of RX-79(G) Gundam Ground Types, the generic “infantry” version of the classic suit, one of which also comes with the support APC’s as depicted in the classic 08th MS Team (seriously check it out, it plays the wholething dead straight and really plays up the support even one of these suits would need on campaign). These are all 1/144 scale which has rapidly become my preferred scale for Gundam kits to be honest. These’ll be a good de-stress project further down the line 😉
Yeah, GITS is some prime cyber action. I generally prefer Appleseed, but the execution of GITS, and especially the SAC series is just superb. It’s great to have the wholeseries on blu-ray in one package as well. I think the only shows I’m waiting for now for this treatment is Cowboy Bebop (but a 20th anniversary release is in the works, including the soundtracks!) and Neon Genesis Evangelion….
