The massive combination of R-1, R-2, and R3. A feat of engineering, and a perfect example of late 90s robot design. It's just incredible.

Ever since the first Super Robot Wars game I played, I loved the SRX. Not only is it a big towering love letter to Super Robots, but it's also a walking homage to the Banpresto logo. There's a certain silly appeal to that alone, even if the robot itself isn't wasn't so good looking.

But it is, and seeing it in this form - a massive combination of 3 equally impressive chogokin robots - makes every bit of design and engineering even more striking.

It takes a while to get it all together, and there are parts that can be a little frustrating (the helmet is something we'll need to discuss at some point) but if you take the time to really learn how it combines, and how it moves, it's an endlessly satisfying piece.

The sheer size of this guy alone makes it a little harder to photograph - but it cuts quite a silhouette on a shelf. Just gorgeous.

And there's so much more to show off, expect a part 2 soon. We haven't even touched on the black light effects.

What a toy.

Pictures barely due it justice.

RIOBOT - NERV vs. G Kessen Heiki "Shiryu" Prototype Unit

One aspect I loved about the Shin Godzilla promotional push was the licensing crossovers. Crossing over Evangelion and Godzilla is pure fun. The Yoji Shinkawa designed "Shiryu" sure catches the eye.

I've had this figure for five years now, but I've never really played with it much. I forgot about it until a new stealth version (black) of the "Shiryu" was put up for preorder, which reminded me that I had it. So after five years, I decided to break it out and take pictures of it.

I got the Rayearth Riobot figure. So much money but so beautiful. I posed it with one of my Hikaru's too because I could.

not really a fans of over-complicated designed type of a mecha, like this one... yet the animal/kaiju looks on this one really won me over
