I will own this toy if I don't buy another this year!

Thanks for the other link. I have not been to SciFi Japan site for a while.

See...a light Friday work day and non-blocked Youtube makes for a bad combo.

Watching this pretty much cemented the sale (not that I was not gonna get it before...):

At 20" tall it's tempting to me. But at $500 it's not.

Shooting finger missiles would make the sale, though.

I figure I'd drop twice that on the missile-firing vinyl...so...

For that much money it should be able to make you an anime accurate Whopper from scratch. WITH onion rings.

Someone buy my motorcycle so I can get this! So nice, and that video does kinda seal my doom.

[edit]

Anyone have a clue where to pre-order?

Non-firing toe and finger missiles is a deal breaker for me. I GOTTA have that for $800.

RCMG's head spinning action was so awesome that I just had a rapture-seizure. Fucking amazing. I wish I had an extra kidney to pawn so I could buy this toy. Or maybe I should just "borrow" a kidney from one of the neighbors...

So badass. I still don't know why they didn't fully commit and just make him missile fire.

Those latest vids are great! Would be worth the cost just to station this thing in some dark room, wait for unsuspecting family member to wander towards said room, and then remotely FIRE IT UP!, and wait for ensuing scream! Mwahaha!

Seriously, by the time you get all geared up with any one R/C truck, rockcrawler, plane , etc. you're spending this kinda hobby cash anyway.

That's a good point. I've got a couple of buddies that are in R/C cars...THAT'S a pricey hobby.

Truly an amazing piece. The videos are great (this guy always makes great ones). I'd love to sick this on my new barking dog.

I'm still partly glad the missiles don't fire...otherwise, this would simply be a MUST BUY...that I can't afford! ;) Oh, and another gripe: with such amazing, super-accurate details, the herky-jerky walking looks especially stoopid.

Gotta say, though, the light-up warheads are a nice touch and are a reasonable enough compromise for not having shooty gimmicks. Oooh...imagine if there was a bb reservoir inside, and grey bbs shot from the fingertips, toes, and knees!

What really blows my mind, though, is that the sound effects are fucking DEAD ON.
