The first time I saw Gurren Lagann I though what a lame mecha anime. But a few months later I got nothing todo and picked the anime up due the good reviews. My g** it was a great series. Gurren Lagann is super cool, but eva mecha wins 😛
Oh, I’m kinda the other way around. I think it’s really cool from the beginning but it sux big time at the end. =P
Lol…this is how they make money. It’s like that time they sold Viral’s mecha with and without the ‘head’ and Gurren Lagann with the small drills and without. This is interesting though, but I wouldn’t purchase it.
However, I’m more into the other upgrades of gurren lagann that they’ll be releasing (hopefully soon). Like the Dai Gurren Lagann. At least that has a different design and won’t look like i’m investing in something that looks the same.
I like how revoltech does mecha. It has that un-refined feel to it like as if it’s battle-worn plus the joints don’t really impair the quality of the design. Lagann looks a little too ‘raw’ for my tastes though.
