\*\*edit: copy and paste the links to see the pictures… \*\* I might go buy this next weekend: [http://www.hlj.com/images/ban/ban917983.jpg](http://www.hlj.com/images/ban/ban917983.jpg) Woooo, this is so great! 🙂 I hate the Gundam series (too boring) but the robots are so cool. I hear these BanDai model kits are pre-painted and everything. No cement required, clicking the different parts together is enough. I’m a bit disappointed by the height though. Only 5 cm. There are larger ones, but I didn’t find anything larger than 12 cm. Is there anybody here with experience about this stuff? The one on the picture looks great, but I don’t know if this is also the case when you open the box… This is a 12 cm one. Sweeeet… Call me a nerd, I don’t care. 😛 [http://www.hlj.com/images/ban/ban917987.jpg](http://www.hlj.com/images/ban/ban917987.jpg) ---

NERD! 🙂 Just playing man. I never got too into the japanamation styyle mechs…but ive always loved the Mechs from battletech and Mechwarror ![](http://www.cdaccess.com/gifs/shared/front/large/mechw295.gif) I always found these mechs to be way more believable. They have guns and stuff. Instead of carrying a swords and actually being able to perform martial arts and whatnot ---

Yay! Actually they can be bigger than 5cm or 12cm! Those are just the box sizes. According to another site, it’s more 10 cm, 20 cm. :thumb: Fester, yeah, the MechWarrior robots are cool too. Actually more realistic. Never saw those in model kits though. Will ask the shop keeper on Saturday. 🙂 ---

What grade model kits are they? I know there are some very high grade kits out there (with the price to match) These sound a little less complex (which would be perfect for me, never could color inside the lines as a kid, much less glue a model together correctly.) That would be cool if they were prepainted! Cheers! -Niann ---

Gandams are alright, I like the old school Transformer toys more. 😛
