Wow not bad, I'm guessing it's not coming with the jet pack and will be on the small side which is fine Gurren Lagann is one of the smaller Super Robots out there.

Wow that looks sweatbut I wish it had SOME metal in it since that's all I collect, now I'm on the fence should I buy this or maybe wait for a SOC version that could never come out.

Huargh. No sir, I don't like it. I know the tattoed look kind of fits with Kamina's "honorable Yakuza" personality, but it really make the Gurren Lagann look messy. The various gold filigree at least looked appropriate on the Lancelot since it has the whole "five star stories gilded knight" thing going on. I'm really regretting my pre-order at amiami now . Don't want to cancel though, since they blacklist you if you do it too many times and I've already done it once for the Yamato GBP-1 bundle...

A larger, die-cast and tattoo free version of this would have been awesome, but like this I can't buy it.

The tattoos are nothing a good coat of metallic candy-apple red can't fix!

I like the "tattoo's" but that's probably cuz I'm covered in them.

I agree it looks messy I'd buy a normal colored one with the giga drill though

I dunno I kinda like the 'tattoos'. It's nice to see a new representation of GL. Kinda goes with the 'over the top-ness' of the robot and the anime. I'll take 2 please Erik

I'm totally cool with the tatoos. Love the giga drill. Not liking the fact that it doesn't seem to come with the wings. Maybe that'll be an exclusive add-on. And for some reason, I really don't dig the 3-D fire-skull emblems on the shoulder armor. I'd much rather those were just painted/tampoed onto a smooth surface than raised/embossed like that. That bugs me. Not something I'd get anyways, but mostly it looks like a good toy.

If I hadn't have scored the GIM GL or the Banpresto Giga-Drill statue I'd be all over this. It's kind of in that in-between category. Not a gokin but too big to go with Revoltechs. It does look like a quality figure though. Maybe if it goes on clearance I'll think about it.
I don't think the tatoos really change the overall look that much. They almost blend in at a distance. Are they from the movie version or are they just the artist's interpretation?

I think Amiami's "blacklisting" policy has been exagerated quite a bit. So long as you aren't cancelling orders VERY frequently (like 10 times a month) you should be safe.
