The Andoros Sejin is simply beautiful.

Those videos are very cool! The box art is amazing on all of the kits, so is the action/play factor on all of them. Funny listening to the crew laugh as they trip out on what each model/toy does.

Frustrating not to be able to understand Japanese, but in most cases you could tell what was amusing them. The skeleton-on-a-raft reminded me of a toy I had as a kid. Same principle ... wind the propeller on a rubber band up, float the thing, and let it go.

Loved the box illustrations. Some of the laughter seemed to be at the difference between the illustrations and the actual model inside.

Super Beatle and the other vehicles are awesome beyond belief.

Thanks PK!

Couldn't agree more. That Ziggurat is spectacular with the jet/rocket firing action.

I would love to have a wall of just the box art, amazing stuff.

There is no shortage of sweet models in Japan, and the prices are extremely reasonable. Just wish I actually had some talent to put some of them together. So many are worth it for the art alone though. But it would be great to see what some of the people on this board could do with them. I can imagine some pretty awesome kit-bashes and paint. Thanks PK!
