"The Variable Action Series goes die-cast!
And the first toy in this new line-up is the Knight Mare Frame from Code Geass!
16 cm tall, full action, comes with weapons and accessories!"

die cast content finaly ! :-D

Pre-orders are up! Jeez this one is a bit pricey. Its almost twice as much as an SRC. Every site is mentioning this thing has metal content, maybe that's why the price is so high? I love Code Geass and while this is probably my favorite knightmare frame from the series I kind of want to see some reviews of this figure before I throw down the money.

From a picture on hobbysearch that denotes the materials, it looks like the legs, hips, waist and parts of the chest will be metal. Sweet!

The bottom left picture indicates in blue what parts are going to be metal.

Here is a review of the prototype. I pre-ordered one, hope it turns out well. Looks like it had a good amount of metal, and the cockpit and Kallen look great! They show off some of the articulation and it looks good so far, but I'm still wondering how much range those knees are going to give.

I told myself I wouldn't, and that I needed to cut back ... but I pre-ordered it anyway. I do love the Gurren.

Now I just need to sell my Robot Damashii versions 1 and 2...

Payment request received and paid. I paid for the SAL shipping, but who knows maybe I'll get lucky and it will be there within a week.

Here's to hoping that it's a good figure. I'm a sucker for a candy red robot.

^ This. I remember Megahouse's first guren toy and man oh man that thing was a piece of junk,so hopefully they've taken all that they have learned over the years with the variable action line to make this release awesome.
