I Did Say I Want More Full Metal Panic, But…

NOT AN AMERICANISED LIVE ACTION MOVIE!!!

If this was a mirror image of the adaptation against the original, things would look ugly

If you’ve yet to notice, this site’s name’s a parody of Full Metal Panic, and that should drop the hint that I like FMP, A LOT. Hence, news of a live action movie adaptation of one of my all-time favourite series by Holly-screwy-wood is definitely horrible news. This was definitely not I was hoping for while I read the 10th volume of FMP Sigma on the train this morning.

At Long Last, Alter ARX-7

Published on December 26, 2008 in Figurines and News. 8 Comments

It’s official! The ARX-7 we’ve all been waiting for has finally been announced for release. Come May 2009, the 1/60 14.5cm tall ABS full action figurine will be released at a hefty 13440 yen. I was ready to make my decision to quit figurines right after my 2 Highschool of the Dead figurines arrive next month, but it looks like my plan will be delayed a couple of months just for the Arbalest.

However, a problem still remains. Remember Arvalest? Yes that’s right. There’s still no confirmation as to whether the V has been corrected to a B, or if it’s left as it is. All the sample images of the ARX-7 do not include the base, so no one would know until the final product’s released. Until then, let’s play the waiting game.

A Dancing Very Merry Christmas

Full Metal Panic, alongside Evangelion, has been one of my favourite series, be the it novel, anime or manga. As such, since I love the series, it’s only natural for me to love the 2 female lead characters in it too. Today’s Christmas eve, but for FMP fans who don’t bother about that, it’s Chidori and Tessa’s birthday too.

As a annual “tradition”, on this day, I shall write some random fanboy post regarding FMP.

ARX-8, Reporting In Sergeant!

Published on August 13, 2008 in Figurines. 9 Comments

At long last, I finally get my hands on my very own ARX-8. I’d very much prefer a life-sized, fully functional ARX-8, but sadly, it exists only in my imagination, so I think I should just settle for the action figurine model instead.

So, why is the ARX-8 so awesome? Let’s overlook the fact that its arsenal consists of the lambda driver, the 65mm Multi-purpose Demolition Howitzer and a few other weapons that would instill fear in the hearts of even its bravest foes.
