As you may have guessed, I only have the 6" and 12" Princess figures (despite appearances, I'm not some mad Princess obsessed freak Wink ), although I briefly had the Region 1 volume 1 DVD, and am looking for the Top Cow TPBs.

Some pics are here, if you're interested. I'm planning on customising Princess a bit so she doesn't always have to resort to unarmed combat.

My Gatchaman collection is, to say the least, extensive. I've a fair number of the books, all three series on their original Laser Discs (complete with all the extras), the Playstation game and computer software--the OAV game and the U-Print card design program. I've also the 12" figures and the Ken plush. I also have some of the LPs. But the best in the entire collection is the super rare promotional video and literature Sammy put out when trying to sell their Gatchaman pachinko machines.

It'd take me forever to put up images of everything I have, so for now, the words will have to suffice.

They're a video gambling/gaming machine, that functions like a slot machine. You can take a look at it here, and for further exploration, just click any of the four titled bars at the bottom of this page.

You'll see what I mean about how super rare--and super cool--the promotional info is! Big Grin

hmm .. i don't have piles of stuff Gatchaman (my taste in anime is all over the board).

i have the first season on DVD, the OAV on videotape sent to me by another fan, all the main TopCow comics and the b&w manga as well.

oh, one of Alex Ross's posters (mounted and framed) and an Ippei Kurei wall scroll!

a pile of figurines and none of them Gatch because i refuse to pay $30 for a shoddily made piece of plastic. i try and stick to McFarlane where available.

If I could find the original Joe and Ken dolls, and I had the money at the same time (^_^), I'd probably get them. Same with the Jun doll. The BotP versions of the 12" Joe and Ken dolls just don't cut it. The BotP figures don't impress me much, either. The problem with some action figures is that finding ones with good faces and such can be difficult. For example, WP's Princess action figure is probably the best made one I've seen. The ones I've found at comic shops and the like don't seem as well made. *shrugs* Or maybe I'm just really picky. ^_^

I do, however, have all the BotP comics (no cover variations, though), including the manga, volumes 2-4 of the Rhino dvds, the OAV, and pictures I printed off all over my bedroom wall (along with other series, of course).

Edit: I do want to mention that Anime Castle has some great Gatch merchandise, including dvds, wallscrolls, soundtracks, shirts, and more. It's really cool how much this site has.

Yeah, the Mark and Jason 12" figures (I hate calling them dolls) haven't impressed me much. The faces look unrealistic, especially compared to Princess's, the costumes are very badly fitting, and there's some lack of articulation.

And I managed to get the Tiny and Keyop figures tonight so Princess doesn't get lonely, and one of the TPBs. All for £5.25. Smile

Yes Elvin, thanks for that. I went to the site and found out they are in College Point, which is not far from me at all. I may go check them out in person.

Now seems to be a great time to buy the recent action figures because they're all cut price Wink

The faces on the Mark and Jason action figures are the same as those on the Medicom Ken and Joe - about the only thing that is the same. I thought the faces were pretty good, since they're trying to make a 3d version of cartoon faces not real faces.

I've been collecting since '97, I really should categorise my stuff. I have a lot of the older items, but also lots of videotapes & DVDs. I recently got the DVD version of "la bataille des planetes", which is just as much fun as the french version of Eagle Riders, "la patrouille des aigles" - all the dialogue just sounds so wrong in french Big Grin (just my personal feelings - I'm sure it sounds right to anyone who heard it first in french - but the ER names Kelly, Mickey, Ollie do sound very odd with french pronunciation, and french Mallanox isn't a patch on the american one).

My favourite silly item has to be the magic sandals - how is the kid supposed to see the moving pictures when they're wearing them? I recently saw on Yahoo Japan that there were two different kinds, so now I'm hankering for another pair Wink

Yeah, I like the faces on them...just not the body swap.

Stardust - Definitely go. Almost all of their stuff is below retail price (some of their dvds aren't as low as I've seen them, but they definitely aren't the highest). Add in the fact that you wouldn't have to pay shipping, and you have a great deal.
