    I know. It's the principle of the thing. The guy who runs Shockertoys is a crook.

    I could've swore they made a DX version of Daidenjin... YOU HAVE A DYNAROBO!! Dude, can you take some pictures of the fists for me? The one I bought didn't have any fists, so I'm gonna have to sculpt them on my own, and I need some references, if you can it would be much appreciated!

    Eldoran and Brave may be similar, but I don't THINK they're quite the same....

    I guess if Daidenjin belongs here (in spite of there being a Power Rangers/Sentai thread), then so do the Eldran robots. :)

    I don't see any problem with the occasional cross-pollination of robots that have their own threads in this one, long as they don't overtake, y'know?

    I think about the only thing I have that might belong in this thread is this:

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    The Knight of Gold Lachesis from The Five Star Stories. It's a model kit so it's not particularly stable. Pretty nice though. It's supposed to have stickers but they're the kind I am not really able to apply.

    Oh and no, I have no idea what Five Star Stories even is. I just liked how it looked when I saw it at a toy show.

    That's my philosophy on it too.

    We're bound to get crossover pics, crossover ideas, crossover information. It's all good baby.

    And hey, if anyone has photoshoots of their stuff on some of the other primary threads, feel free to post a preview pic here and a link to the other thread w/all the pics. Who knows? Someone here who's into Mazinger may see a Gosei set and get into them also.

    And more robots are awesome.

    The only thing that could make that more awesome would be if there was a tiny 3D printer in his chest instead of the polyhedron, representing himself making himself making himself making himself making himself. Himself.

    My first taste of madness came at the age of 6 when my brother got a T-shirt printed with the image of a boy wearing a T-shirt with an image of a boy wearing a T-shirt, etc. That was a complete mind-f*** to me back then. :lol 

    As for the 3D printer bot: WANT

    OK, in that case actual real-life robots are good too, right?

    Here's the thread winner:

    Is that one of the robots that we put on Mars to kill all of the aliens in preparation for our eventual colonization?

    No, it's one of the ones that will disturb Their million year slumber, awakening That which dwells in the darkness to seek retribution on those who would dare to extend their reach to the stars.
