Probably by today's standards, I wouldn't really be called much of an anime fan. I still watch it from time to time, but nothing like I had in the past. Back in the day, as some may agree, anime was a rarity of a sort and getting it was often tricky. Now, you can trip over websites begging you to watch their free streams of 24 hour anime, but that's not to say it's a bad thing. It's just a long way from where it was with Akira, Dragon Ball Z, Gundam, Evangelion, and all that.
I'll be honest, so please anyone that has more information about this set than I do, please comment below, I don't know much about this set yet. It appears by the copyright information in the photos, they are done in some regard by Bandai, but I have no idea if they outsourced any studio for the actual sculpts. I would love to find out more on this, because I find these miniatures really amazing and capture that over-the-top wildness and style the anime has.
What's notable about this set, up front, are two things. One is that the set is rather large, which is a pleasant surprise. I am unaware of a previous line to traditionally build up to a large set like this, but the anime has been around for quite some time now. The second thing is it's combination of clear plastics and traditional keshi plastics that seem to really make this series stand out.
I'm really excited to see these guys find their way to the States, but from what I've read from a couple auctions, they seem to be coming single-file in gumball capsules. If this is true, it's going to be difficult seeing these guys travel in complete sets, but who knows. I'll certainly love to get whatever I can, if not the full set. They need a real review for sure.
I still keep up from time to time, but with only so many hours in the day, and only so many hobbies to dedicate time to, I have to be a bit more picky on what to watch. Not to make this an anime review so much, but one of the series I have actually been getting into and really enjoying is JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, so you must guess the sort of curiosity and excitement I've had when I've see pictures of a gorgeous Japanese vending machine keshi line find themselves all over social media. So much so I think I'm going to flood this post with like six pictures or something! That much!
