Taken at the Chara Hobby yesterday. One of the nicest figures of Gurren Lagann to date.
Unfortunately I wasn't taking notes and didn't pay attention to who makes this - first one to tell me will be credited here ^^;      

Update:Thanks to Arekusu who identified it as being by Volks - available in September.

I've seen some Gurren Laganns but never Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann! Is it PVC? Would be nice for acting out scenes with the anti-spiral version if its posable

It's a resin kit unfortunately ^^;

Scale is 1/Infinity(lol) and I think it cost around 25,000 Yen.

33 cm in height.

It is the same one (other then the fact that E2046's one is a recast) but the pic posted is the unpainted one. There was a painted one right next to it but I guess it's not in the shot.

E2046 has a pre-painted one up for pre-order. It depends on how the paint job looks but right now I have it ordered. $300 is steep, but I cannot resist the awesome that is TTGL!
