Wait, Shiryu had a son? when did that happened?
I also would like someone to explain me how can a bronze cloth change into a silver cloth y winning a tournament.
So far I am enjoying this new series but it needs more ground to the classic one.

I am seriously thinking on getting this game. I don't have any Myth Cloth in my Collection and this one looks pretty awesome. It might not be the like the 24k version but it looks pretty awesome. Now if someone would tell me why the (JAP) version is more expensive than the (AS) version would be very awesome.

If I know something is that one should never lose hope. If anything one should continue until the end. Just like what happened to "Fist of the North Start". It took a long time but "Discotek" is finally releasing the dvds here in America Cheesy

I enjoyed because I knew I went to see a Michael Bay movie and nothing else. If someone go thinking you will get a "Dark Knight" then, I am sorry you wasted your money Sad

Chronocross_xp, so you have the black design box not the orange/red box?

Yes, I too hope that LC gets released in America but don't hold your breath.  I'm sure NankH and/or TMD will produce a fansub.
I have the orange box.

11  Saint Seiya / Other Models+Toys / Re: Bud_Alcor's Saint Seiya Collection on: March 27, 2009, 08:29:50 PM
Dude, that is some nice collection Cheesy
The think I am most impress is the fact that you have the Memorial Version of Dragon Shiryu, that one is awesome. Maybe someday if I am lucky enough I would be able to find one and be able to buy it.
If it is not much to ask, maybe when you have some time could you take a picture of that please Cheesy
12  Like To Chat? / Anime/Manga / Astroboy 2003 on: March 26, 2009, 03:35:55 PM
So all manga and all anime that we know and love started thanks to the creative mind of a dude named Osamu Tezuka a.k.a. "The God of Manga". He created popular japanese characters such as Astroboy, Princess Knight, Black Jack, etc.
Back in the 50s he created Astroboy, which was the story of a robot that concealed a soul. It was oriented for the little kids but the author tried to express his most important message in that little manga too. That message was that "all life is sacred".
The manga became so popular that it was then decided that it will become a weekly animated show. Something that has never being done before. Before Tezuka most of the cartoons made would be shown on the teather before an actual movie. Suffice to say that Astroboy became very popular. So popular that NBC bought the rights to transmit the anime in America on the 60s. It was brough the the USA with the name of Astroboy, in Japan it is still known as "Tetsuwan Atom".
It was remade then on the early 80s with the name of "Shin Tetsuwan Atom", and then it was re-imagined on the year 2003 again with the name of "Tetsuwan Atom".
The first glimpse of animation of this series was shown back on the year 2000 but it was not release until 2003 for the simple reason that on the orginal manga Astroboy was born on 2003, specifically he was born on April 9 2003 that would make astro a  Shion Gold
The re-imagining of astroby was beautifully animated in widescreen, and even though it was suppose to be kids story it grew out of it and it became a lot more deeper than that. Since Astro have to deal with the fact that even though he has a soul, he is not human, even though he wants to help there are people that fear his power and want to destroy him. There are moments that would keep you at the edge of your seat and there are moments that would make you cry a little.

You can watch the ]opening on youtube.
I would not recommend the american release because of the next reasons:
- You get what you pay for, that means that even though it is really cheap it is also really horrible.
- 10 eps come in a single dvd, you can imagine how compressed they are.
- No japanese original language either. It come in spanish, portuguese subs.
- The only extra is the making of astroboy.

How could Sony mess up so bad with Astroboy, I have no idea.
However, if you have a nintendo ds or gameboy advance you can buy the Astroboy Advance videogame for very cheap. I would say that the game is so good that it will make you cry for two reasons:
- It is so hard that you will be happy that you finish the game
- The story is so good that tears will come out by the end of it.

If you really want to give astroboy a chance I will guide you dohko.

13  The Sanctuary / Saint Seiya Goodies / Re: Interesting Saint Seiya Deals on: March 24, 2009, 10:57:14 PM
So, yeah it has being a long time since the last time I have being here. You can blame it on my studies and my senior year at college .
But I found an animation cell that looks awesome. I think it is from the Saint Seiya movie, the one against Abel Cheesy
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=150324603996
It has a nice picture of  seiya in the  aioros cloth Cheesy
It has being a while but I found and interesting a vintage Kanon of Sea Dragon it is going for $90 bucks but they cut out the symbol from the box Sad
Also, here is Death Mask vintage for a very reasonable prize of $60
Here is another  deathmask This one is kind of old and one would be wise to watch this one since it is going for 3 bucks but who knows how much will be by the end.
So here is another interesting find. It does not comes from Bandai. It is custom made. It its the Myth Odin Cloth. By the time I am writing this, has a buy now prize of $22.
Also I am happy because I learned how to put a link inside a word Cheesy
I am writing a new post because I found something different today. It is not a Saint Seiya action figure but it is the Saint Seiya Encyclopedia Masami Kurumada Art Book OOP. The best thing is that it gives you the option to either buy it now or to give an offer.

It is kind of short but it is ever so sweet. The article is not about the manga or the anime but it is about the huge market that it is Saint Seiya action figures.
