Well here is something completely new and different. free photo hostingWhat do you guys think? first ever addition to the line based on a Hollywood movie robot. I love the film because it's so awesome but I have never felt the urge to buy any Gypsy Danger figure before. Will this change my mind? too soon to tell. But it is very interesting. No details as of it but I'm guessing there should be details coming soon.

I have legitimately not seen this coming.
Wow. This is definitely one of those surprises I keep going on about whenever Bandai Tamashii wants to keep us guessing.

Thank you Bandai...i can see Japanese, Chinese and Russian Jager coming too. My personal favorite is Australia's Striker Eureka. The multi-barreled chest cannon finisher is choice.

MY DREAMS ARE COMING TRUE!!!!!!!!!
On one of our strings we were listing our wants and it is finally happening!!
I think Pacific Rim raised the bar for a Kaiju / giant robot movies. It was received well enough to get a sequel and paved the way for more. Afterwards the Godzilla film killed it. Big budgets and good directors have given the genre new life. The director of Pacific Rim, Guillermo Del Toro, is a huge fan of the genre and that just made the production that much better. I watched Kong, Power Rangers and Ghost in the Shell too just to support these movies because economics drives production. Surprisingly I found all of them to be really good. If the studio doesn't make money then fans like us don't get to see our favorites on the big screen. I'm encouraged that one day I'll see a live action Eva movie ir Mazinger made by a big time studio like Legendary (which is killing it with their kaiju roadmap) or Universal.
I own this movie in three formats. Digital, HD and 4K. I own all the 18" figures and the SDCC black versions too.
I'll take two please!

Not a fan of jaegers, so I'm skipping this. But I'm sure the figure will be awesome and many will love it.

If Bandai decide to make SOC Ironman, im in full support. Competition is great for collectors.
Hot Toys diecast ironman has a real critical con...the horrificly fugly shoulder joints. WTH is Hot Toys thinking? Lazy.....
Maybe Hot Toys will also make diecast Jaeger if SOC Jaeger turns out tobe a hit.

Nice.
Bandai does anime robots. Bandai does american robots. Does that mean we're one step closer to a SOC Iron Giant?

Thanks for the link FixedInPost!! The new Jaeger Gipsy Avenger looks so coooooooollll!!!! They could have done more with him but I'm still excited about it. I wonder if Bandai will release Gipsy Danger and Gipsy Avenger in time for the movie release. I may be asking to much to get both lol.
