That's not the picture I wanted.

And here's the background story you never asked for, courtesy the Kore Ja Nai Robo official homepage:

'The year is 200x. The world is overflowing with products. Filled with a veritable flood of new movies, shows, comic books, and toys. Too much to even catalog, let alone own. Set against this backdrop are numerous cases of children asking for presents from uncomprehending parents who mistakenly purchase the wrong items. At the peak of the incident during Christmastime, the cries of "this isn't what I wanted!" reverberate through the skies of Earth.'

Those are brilliant, they took their time though.

> they took their time though.

You don't just "crank out" a toy this complex in a few days, you know.

Actually, they've been out for a few months now. The designers even did a signing party at the Zakka store in NYC in December, which I'm sorry I missed. In any event the toys are available from the usual sources...

etc.

Haahahaha! "1/144 Scale"!? That's great! And the box in general art really is fantastic!!

I knew these were supposed to be coming out around Christmas time, but I just couldn't find 'em....now, I realize that I had been googling "kore ja nai robo", which yields little more than Zipa's article. ...Then again, "korejanai robo" yields just HLJ...but that's good enough for me!

Thanks, Matt!
