How to Build Gundam 1 & 2 Box Set
The legendary Gundam modeling books from 1981 & 1982, How To Build Gundam 1 & 2, will be reprinted and released in a box set this August for the 30th anniversary of Gundam, retail price will be 3000 yen.
The cover model of issue 2 inspired the full panel open feature in the Super HCM Pro Gundam. I can't believe there is a chance to own these two books again!

I grew up with old school Japanese animation. Now decades have gone by, and my interest certainly hasn't faded. Japanese animation has come a long way, and the quality has improved leaps and bounces (very evident from the Gundam OO and Macross F series). At the same time, I've noticed a resurgence of interest in the old school anime heros that I have loved for all my life. Many companies are digging out old robot designs and releasing toys and collectibles for the *akem* aging collectors alike.
I decided to create this blog as my personal tribute to the anime, robots, toys and anything in between, that I love.
