The Spirit of a Digital Workman
Tools and dies awaiting their turns on injection-molding machines at Bandai's Shizuoka Hobby Center. What's that? Think Mecca for Gundam freaks. They rolled out the red carpet for Patrick and I earlier this week. Look for a full report and podcast in the next few days.

Ohhh..... hoho!! Awaiting eagerly!

So, ka....the fruit of the "we're meeting some guys" podcast, eh?
Someone needs to tell Bandai on that massive new super pricy Yamato "Less retro/Playstation, more like it's supposed to look", OK?
Do you recall if Taito falls under the all-powerful Namco/Bandai flag? Because the Yamato THEY'RE bringing out does it right. Pretty much.
I await the podcast. I expect greatness :)

Hey, I LIKE the sleek look of the new "Perfect Grade" Yamato! Patrick and I were treated to a surprise demonstration of it on the shinkansen platform as we were heading home. It's beautiful. But that's a story for later...
