Just want to be among the first to wish everyone a fabulous New Year! *hugs*

I love the piccie... Springie Can you do one for Down under too... Something beachy I think since its hot here. Happy New Year to you too from what I hear on the news you guys are being hit with blizzards and more and more snow. A cosy way to spend New Year celebrations.

What a great picture, Springie! But poor Joe looks so sad... I guess I should go comfort him. As for a 'beachy' pic, Ebony, how about this one of Springie's? It's one of my favorites.

Happy New Year Everyone! Love your pics Springie both of them. I hope this year is the best year ever for everyone!

A very happy, safe, and prosperous New Year to everyone! I hope I'll be the first one to try and stick by the resolutions made! I love the first pic, Springie ... and even what it's implying!!! It's obvious that Ken is starting the year with Jun (yippie!), but Joe is there also!!!! TJ ... I agree! The second pic is one of my favourites, also! What a lovely way for both of them to start the year!! BTW ... I love Jun's face captured in your avatar! Jun was always beautiful, but IMHO, there are many instances where I prefer her look in Gatch II and Gatch F!

Hope you all have a very happy new year! With plenty of and

double post

may all your new years be full of more more definetly more on the threads (I ment smut, not sex, well as long as it's between the characters,or consenting adults, there are other sites for that, some of them are just WRONG, anyway I digress) less deffinetly more

BUT, spanking...that's okay....mmmm I wonder if the condor or owl would be interested....cause well they were not under my christmas tree...and that makes them verrry naught birdies...they need a little punishment. Lw...wanders of to find pen and paper..and see were this thought takes her

Wishing all of you a very Happy New Year!!

Yes, this is one of my favorite shots of Jun. She looks a little more... feminine in this scene.

Gatch II, episode 21, isn't it? I agree, she looks especially lovely in that scene -I used it as a model for a pic of her once. That's a great pic you did for the New Year in this part of the world, Springie -I know I've been seeing a fair amount of snow around! I agree that Joe's looking a little "three's a crowd" or even sad but then, he often does stand a bit apart from the others. Here though I could believe that he might be worrying about his first series health problems (and whether it's his last New Year) or (Gatch II) feeling alone and apart because he's a cyborg, or feeling sad because Ken has Jun and all the women he meets end up dead... I hope 2011 is a good year for everyone here!

I hope you all had a great Christmas and are looking forward to a great 2011

You got it, LB! Gatch II episode 21/Eagle Riders episode 6.

We just finished celebrating "ringing in the New Year" with the fam...hope it's a great one!

Is it the year of the rabbit? That's the perfect pic for it!

Awe thanks TJ!!!

Where'd the bunny-Jun pic come from?

It's a spoof from an anime called "Nurse Witch Komugi"...it's very cute! Gatchaman Suicide Firebird Spoof

That's so cute!

Oh my that is so cool. I've never seen that show before. Love your pic for Year of the Rabbit Springie!

You can tell the producers are Gatch fans.

Happy New Year to everyone!

Chiming in a bit late but best to everyone on here for the new year.

You too Gatchgirl, I hope your holidays were nice.

Here are a few more rabbits I found on one of the Japanese websites...

Aww! All these Gatchy rabbits makes me wonder, though, if there's a cultural significance in Japan to rabbits and putting rabbit ears on people -beyond mere cuteness that is. Unless it's something to do with Easter and/or a general use of rabbits as symbols for spring, rebirth, fertility etc.

I was thinking they put these pics on their site because it is the year of the rabbit...

Makes sense! I wonder what they draw for the year of the rat or the snake? That would be interesting...

Brrrr ... I'm just imagining Ken or Joe with a forked tongue!!! Those are so cute, Springie! I agree that, most probably, they could be related to the New Year's theme! Don't think they could have anything to do with Playboy, don't they?!!! ... tee, hee ... I've just noticed the letter "P" at the side of the Rabbit Eagle!

You are right, it is probably something to do with the year of the Rabbit. I was thinking Easter - but that is a little far away. These are so cute. I notice how Ken's ears stand up straight and tall while Joe has his bent forward, just like the rebel he is.

Love these rabbit pics!
