More pictures from Bic Camera

So I guess there was a decent amount of stuff if I have to make another post for Bic Camera. If I had to guess I think Bandai wanted to get into the  building block business. So they came up with the Doubutsu Gattai ZyuohKing show to cash in on the cult that is Lego or maybe to give the robots a Minecraft look. They are kind of cool. Big, heavy, blocky, robots. It is an interesting idea at the very least. I would not buy any, but they did catch my eye every time I popped into a toy section of any department store in Japan. The DX Cube 123 King Zyuoh & 456 Dodekaioh were in a display where you could play with them hands on at another department store name Lab.

Is Ultraman still a thing? Just checked now, I guess that show is still going. I did not know it was an ongoing show. Just like the Super Sentai (Power Rangers in the US).

The Dynamite Action Getter Dragon figure looked pretty good. It looks like it popped right out of the cartoon. Based on what I see, I prefer it to the Soul of Chogokin version. They also have a Tetsujin 28 figure that looks pretty good. Their line of robots are totally up my alley but they seem a little pricy. I guess I will have to see how big they are.

Tomica car display at Bic Camera

Tomica Cars

The cars by Tomy are cool just because of the packaging for me. Japanese packaging has always been something I have loved about the toys. You can take them out, put them away and practically keep them brand new. In US packaging you have to destroy the packaging to take the toy out, think Matchbox cars for example.

The Robot Spirits Tamashii Nations Bandai Unicorn Gundam, Zaku & Sniper ROBOT魂

The Robot Spirits Tamashii Nations Bandai Unicorn Gundam, Zaku & Sniper

More robots under the girls anime display, which I assume is more for guys than for girls. The Robot Spirits line by Tamashii Nations has a good selection of Gundam mobile suits and 80’s robots in the line. It seems to me to be the line that replaced the MS in Action!! line.

Deluxe Sazabi 12″ MSIA Bandai America

Deluxe MSN-04 Sazabi Bandai MSIA 2002 from anime movie Gundam 0080 Char's Counterattack MSIA in 1988

Deluxe Sazabi MSN-04 from Bandai MSIA line in 2002 – Definitely one of the best Deluxe robots from this line!

Here’s the big 12 inch DX version of the Sazabi from Gundam 0080 Char’s Counterattack.  I had this before but sold it to my cousin a couple of years ago.  I think I have all of the DX Gundams now except for the GP-01.  I paid 120 dollars for this one on Ebay.  I’ll post a pix of the actual toy once I take it out of the box.

Mummy Gundam – Egypt G Gundam

Here’s another carded Gundam I got from Craigslist – this time the Mummy Gundam representing Egypt.  I never had this one as I never really liked the character but I’m glad I got him as part of the lot as I wouldn’t have spent money on him otherwise.

MS-06S Zaku II Interactive Motorized Fighting Action Figure by Think Way

 

I love Gundam. And I love big robots. And this, THIS is a very large Zaku. Both of my favorite things in one toy! It is interactive, so if you have the other Gundam Motorized action figure(I think it is the RX-78) it kind of looks like they are fighting. Saw this monstrous robot for $15 at Target as they were clearing it out and I just had to buy it.

I think it is 18″. That’s less than a dollar an inch. There is a hole in the packaging so you can press a button to see the Zaku in action. It moves left and right and waves his axe and gun around. The speaker spouts out loud music and copy from the first anime series I believe. Actually that part is kind of irritating, but it is fun to watch once a year.

Yeah, I still haven’t taken it out of the box. I hate the idea of dusting this thing.

Merry Christmas all! ***

Deluxe Nu Gundam Heavy Weapons System – FA-93 HWS

Here’s a nice 7 inch deluxe set that I just got on Ebay for like 35 dollars.  It’s the Nu Gundam with the armor and heavy arms.  I haven’t taken it out of the box because there’s so many pieces and I just wanted to put him on this post first.  I’ll take him out someday and take a pix once I have assembled him.

Deluxe Transforming Gundam Wing XXXG-01W Bandai 2002

Here’s one of the big deluxe Gundams.  I can’t recall all the big deluxe models they had but I recall there were about 6 or 7 of them.  I can’t recall where I purchased this one but it was definitely early 2000’s.

RGZ-91 Gundam (Refined Gundam Zeta) – Char’s Counterattack 1988

Gundam RGZ-91 Re-GZ & Back Weapon System Deluxe Edition Bandai 2001

 

Here’s another piece that I bought for a very reasonable price of about 35 dollars.  This one is the RGZ-91 from Char’s Counterattack and was the first transformable Gundam suit. I was hoping it was a big deluxe version but it’s only 7 inches. Still, it’s quite a nice piece and I’m happy with it as I didn’t have this one. Well, I could probably say that for the millions of other Gundam mecha from the various genres (Gundam 0079, 0080, 0082, MS08 Team, Char’s Counterattack, Gundam Seed/Destiny/Wing/Unicorn…)

I finally had some time today and finally took him out of the box. I have only displayed him with the gun because I’m so paranoid about losing pieces.
