Revoltech round-up

Kind of a backlog but here's my collection of Patlabor Revoltech. The sci-fi comedy-drama of the Mobile Police have been sorely lacking in publicity over the last 10 years since the movies (and W-XIII had very little to do with anything at all). So I was thrilled to find out that the mecha from that franchise would be included in the Revoltech toy line.

Please feel free to ignore the jumbo vinyl Ultraman Tiga back there... and the 1/2-scale Kamen Rider helmet. That turned out to be a pretty big table and it looked funny with just the Revoltech figures lined up there.

This is the guy I picked up today. Details are available at CollectionDX as they got their hands on it when it was first released a couple of months ago. I choose to support the local shops by waiting for them. I tend to agree with CDX - it's a little disappointing that the "Aqua Unit" version really just the same damn figure as the "Flight Unit" version. Why couldn't they just include underwater pack as an accessory in a different mecha?

In the deeper backlog, here are the earlier "Fraulein Revoltech." That's Ayanami Rei from the classic Neon Genesis Evangelion with Tohsaka Rin from Fate/Stay Night.
