I know you guys don't necessarily appriciate the super robot stuff, but I thought I would post this anyway. It's not something you see everyday: Standing at roughly 7 inches and sporting silver and gold I give you the Gucci God Mars:
thats awesome. why is it called gucci? is there anywhere i can see the rest of your collection, the background is interesting me deeply.
Oh, you don't wanna see what's in the background...it'll break your damn heart! ...Or...your wallet--once you realize all the new things you never knew you needed!
"Gucci" isn't an official term....just one used to describe the black and metallic silver or gold paintjobs on a toy.
oh , i dont know erik , you may be underestimating the amount of people who love robots . really , whats not to love about giant robots ? great pics you posted but you are leaving me wanting more . caught a glimpse of the go kaiser and go kaiser tiger in your background . you should start a thread on vinyl robots . damn , you make me want to go to my storage and bust out some of my robots !
You have to show some collection shots, are you kidding. That looks very impressive, the display cases even look cool!
Wow! Sounds like there is interest here. That's great! "really , whats not to love about giant robots ?" That's what I'm saying. Come to think of it I will start a sofubi robot thread. Great idea VV! As requsted, here are a couple of shots from my collection: Not much space here in San Francisco so most of my collection is stored away...
C'mon Hill.. Can I have a few more? Please? Seriously, I'm not even bringing an extra suitcase. I'm going with ol' standby EMS. Masato's going to bring me by some of those big boxes that one can store a small human in. Stoked!
holy crap... that's totally freekin' insane...!!! that's a nice collection of robots you got there...
sweet...robots....you almost never see robots around here. Hey Erik, is there a store in SF that you find a lot of your robot goodies?
THUDDDDD!!!!!!!!! that's the sound of my jaw dropping to the floor!!! AMAZING COLLECTION!...simply AMAZING!!
Kimono My House has lots, but be prepared to pay the prices. There's alos a store in the mall in Japantown (right by the video/anime store) that has some overpriced Masudaya talker reissues.
Oh...I didn't even know that Kimono My House is still around. I know about the one in J-Town. I'll have to take a trip across the BBridge and see what they got at KMH. Everyone is usually a bit overpriced but it is always worth the look to see what they got.
That collection came straight from a dream! Like those crazy ones you have when you where a kid! I'm sooo jealous!!
