Haruhi's new combat gear.
The gear actually comes from Gatchapin which was released in August.
And for those who are not familiar with Gachaman - it goes by the name of G-Force in the west which I grew up on.

  That was my reasoning in buying him. My order has yet to arrive and Danny beat me to the punch. I don't recall the green guy in G-Force though.

Is it true that this (Gachaman) is going to have a CG movie? Ive read it somewhere in the Internets that this will be shown in theaters CG style at around 2009?

Gatchaman figures are like gold. I have a friend who has a Gatchaman microman in his basement. That microman might end up missing one day....
