Zambot 3 model kit & Taiko No Tatsujin 3

Ah! I got some stuff in the post! It's stuff I bought on Yes Asia; a Zambot 3 model kit and the 3rd Taiko No Tatsujin game. ^_^



Taiko no Tatsujin 3 is the *easy part*...

I've never assembled a model kit before... well, not seriously, or in the last few decades... and the first thing I notice on opening the box is there are no red parts, therefore it needs painting.

Wow, this model is bigger than I expected!

Muteki Kyojin Zambot 3

I'm currently watching the first episode of Zambot 3, now that the Shin-Getters are subbing it. The main character - Kappei - is played by Oyama Nobuyo - famous for playing Doraemon. (As well as looking like Doraemon, and being incredible at Arkanoid.) She's got a very unique voice...

BTW ANN's listing for Zambot 3 sucks. They don't have the main character in the cast, and Zambot has been written with a "sa" in katakana, which is wrong...

Since this series is a Tomino Yoshiyuki series, I'm expecting it to be a super-tragic-super-robot version of Doraemon where everybody dies. It seems quite amusing, so far.
