I'd go for Briareos.
really nice, i think its better than jin-roh, when is the date of issue
John Woo you say? I think this just joined my watch list. ^_^ Also, you can't go wrong with a chick with a sword. :P
Gah, been waiting for a while for this movie but if it's just got it's theatrical release then I guess I'll be waiting a lil longer~ Those 1/6 figs are pretty damn sweet as well, even if I'm not a fan of those 1/6 figures.
Never seen this before, but I'd go with the big guy. Its not like you don't have enough girls to keep you company. He looks more interesting and he's definitely got more bang for the buck. Or maybe its actually a girl inside the suit. That huge gun looks so badass. BTW anyone know what "mooist, schmooist remarks " are?
The figures look amazing :O About the movie, I didn't like the first one very much. On the technical side it was ok (for 2004) but the story was really boring. The music for the trailer is ridiculous XD I hope that this movie is a lot better than the first one.
These are very impressive indeed, as is the movie judging by the trailers.
i wish they would be sold on ebay soon
don, the cyborg was the girl boyfriend in her past^^V so, no, its not a girl haven't watch it yet, but i read some of its article in magazine or wiki(forgot)
Wow, those figures look amazing! The sculpting on them (particularly Briareos) looks superb. Im guessing theyre pretty big in order to get that much detail in? Id be curious to see if the paintjob on Deunan's face looks that good on the actual product. Also wondering how theyre articulated - i cant see any joins - especially on deunan's legs. They certainly look a cut above usual action figures. Really wanna see the movie - will it still be showing at the end of Dec/ early Jan? I'd love to see it when im over there. I really like appleseed - its one of my all time favourite mangas. I love Masamune Shirow. I just wish Dominion would get this much attention - i prefer that much more!
Ive seen the very 1sr appleseed movie - the one with the old graphics. Ive been told that the CGI remake is a lot lot better but I was never that into Appleseed tbh...
Loved the last CG movie, the plot was great. Must have this in HD, I wonder if it's going to be BlueRay, HD-DVD or both? I wonder if they will have it out on DVD before Xmas? Would be very lucrative for markets that give gifts for the holiday season. Like Ramadan? Any way John Woo + Apple Seed = Awesome!
is it just me or dos the cg look like its from an old computer game?
Dude...I just saw the movie and it was AWESOME!! Best(Animated movies) I've seen so far.... Hmm...Danny, I think I'll have threaten you a lil' bit here. "Buy me those figures or I'm spoiling the ending!!!" haha..nah, just kidding but seriously, you've got to see the movie.
i can't wait for it to be released on DVD ^^
Hmm o.o Just heard about appleseed some times, but dunno the history, characters, and anything else... But those figures are extremely cool, and the trailer is also awesome. Perhaps I need get some appleseed thing, and buy these figures too (but the price is a lot salty T_T, well maybe when I marry with a rich woman).
Hitomi is such a cutie for this installment. XD
Appleseed was probably the only anime dvd I bought as an impulse, and I've been a fan ever since! If anyone wants to get the manga for real cheap (its the old mirrored ones) check out http://www.tfaw.com/Search?quick_sstring=appleseed&_results_sstype_search= I'm waiting for the newer unmirrored versions to come out. Must get those figures too!
Apple Seed didn't leave a big impression on me, but I'll check out Ex Machina later on.
Never seen Appleseed before, but this trailer is amazing. I gotta watch it when it's out in the net ^^;;
I loved the manga, but the first movie was too lame
This ROboto it's so similar to Patlabor Labors!!
Whoah those figures looked awesome. Impressive details. Have not seen such detailed and fully articulatable figures in my whole life. And Briareos looked so cool!
Appleseed was pretty generic - nothing really impressed me
woah Woah WOAH!!! hang on a minute... Well, I'll be damned. John Woo as a producer. Not quite director greatness, but the movie just went from meh, to interesting! I thought the first CG movie was quite alright, once you got past the human CG. maybe this one will be better. But since john woo is involved, there had better be dual wielding, Face offs and doves. lots of doves!!!
Appleseed is probably one of the most difficult manga i ever read. The first time i was 16 and i didn't get all the story, later then i was on it again and again. Now i think it's a masterpiece, i'm sureof it. I didn't like very much aplleseed 2004 the anime quality was low for me... Anyway this figure are AWESOME, Danny are them already out?
Hope u can give a small review of the movie Danny! APPLESEED ROX!
I`m absolutly fan of Masamune Shirow`s works,besaides they are the most difficult mangas(or should I say literature?)I ever read I love them, specially GITS and all the movies and series. Appleseed is, for me, the second masterpiece of Shirow, but the last movie doesn`t convince me at all... But... The figures are awesome!!
I enjoyed the cartoon-like CGI of the first Appleseed movie. From the trailers I've seen of Ex MAchina it looks like the producers are going for grittier look this time around. Hmm ..I wonder what 3d modeling program they're using. I think it's Softimage XSI. Too bad the DVD isn't going to hit stateside 'til 2008. Would love to see the "making of."
I had no idea of a new Appleseed movie, so this is either welcome or not, depending on the quality or lack of. I didn't mind the style too much of the first, but it's not the same as FF:AC, even though I know of the different styles. It'd be nice if they just stuck to one or the other - 3D or 2D.
oooh. i will try to get my grubby mitts on the figures..
I kinda liked Appleseed, this one looks sorta better then the first. The trailer, visually it looks promising. Audio, the tracks did'nt quite fit well in... the cut from one to another in different tempos put me off. But I think they probably do better in this one. I'm looking forward to it. Thanks for the info of AppleSeed Danny. :D
Hot Toys FTW! HT have a good reputation in making high quality 1/6 scale action figures (I love their military series). I'm glad Medicom Toys didn't pick up the license. Otherwise, we'll probably end up with something overpriced for less and fragile, which is typical of Medicom. Sadly, I'm torn between buying Deunan and another recently licensed series by HT: Resident Evil 4's Leon Kennedy. I can have only one. (T__T)
Woohh...can't wait to se this. I'm a big appleseed fan. ^^ thnx for the heads up.
I have to go back and watch the first movie again, all I can remember is People commiting suicide, and a multiped tank.
I'm a fan of the old 1980's movie. The remake was alright, but I did not fully care for the animation style. We will have to see what they do with Ex Machina, hopefully they clean up some of the brightness in the animation and then it would be cool. Oh, and buy Briareos , he's much cooler!
Er...wads appleseed?!
Damn. I want to see this movie so much. And if it is out in theaters in Japan now, I'll most likely have to wait a very long time to see it. By the way, those Figures are friggin' awsome.
i just preoredered this figure on ebay it costs me nearly 200 bucks
hey kina has lose her eye ! i hope i could buy it soon !
Prada, eh? Wonder if they'll sell the costumes to rich cosplayers.
I live the new one allot better than the old version (VHS) but it did take me awhile to get used to the animation style they used.
I'm in the process of reading the manga still...
Wowowowow. Hot Toys is crazyyyy, just the the Batman ones and now these. Must get Briareos. O.O
