I won't comment about Toynami's Robotech stuff as, well, there didn't appear to be anything new. Beta fighters, Cyclone MPC, etc. Yawn What I do have a comment / question on are these: Shiny New Gundams That image is from ASM's coverage. They've got it stuck in with the Toynami gallery. Is this some kind of fluke or are we really getting awesome new Gundam toys on the shelves again? Did they just accidentally include coverage from a Japanese toy fair? Is this some grand galactic joke, played to get my hopes up and then dash them all to pieces? Inquiring minds want to know. ~Pap. Kote Darasuum

I hate Toynami's quality, but I would totally buy imported Gundam toys. Especially sexy Gundam toys, which the Robot Damashii figures look to be. Is it too much to hope that we'd see a wide-release? Or am I going to have to start trolling comic shops? It'd be nice to see Gundam on the shelves again, especially considering how seriously Bandai screwed up last time. ~Pap. Kote Darasuum
