Before I resume, I just want to say Happy New Year 2010 to everyone! And hope everybody had a great Christmas break and safe New Year’s holiday! Now the new year with the second decade of 2000 rolling in, lots of goals and objectives everybody wants to aim.
I certainly have some. One of my goals is to resume blogging again after being away in my Christmas/NY’s holidays. :-)
And today, I want to share something I learned from AltJapan the other day.
You will find that he’s stumbled across some very interesting documents about GCS…
All the early concept artwork of Mospaeda were found! At last! It’s been so many years since the show finished in the early 80’s. And here we have an actual copy of the documents sitting in the all-forgotten warehouse (where the original studio used to run), somewhere in Japan.
You can even download the copy of its documents too! Take a look!!!
A very long time ago, there’s a cool mecha character I love when I watched it on TV 20 plus years ago.  It’s a motorcycle unit, plated with armor, that comes with futuristic weapons that the motorcyclist can use at its disposal to eliminate any enemy that gets in the way.  A unit that’s suitable for military combat. On land. What’s even more amazing behind this contraption is it actually transformed into a mecha! (see video below, apologies for the video quality)
This sure brings back a lot of memories. I was left in complete awe and felt totally excited about this so-called breakthrough transformation on vehicles with less than 4 wheels. And now I recently bumped into this link from Animenewsnetwork.com, saying there’s a toy model of this motorcycle unit (which is codenamed Cyclone, I just found out) that you can buy online these days, compared to what you thought you could only get from the 80’s time. If you were around long enough during that time, that is. Nevertheless, this guy shows his strut on what the toy is like after struggling to get the grips with its aesthetics a couple hours and summarise what he thought of the whole thing after configuring its transforming pieces of Cyclone. Check out the photo finish on the link after he’s successfully putting everything together at the end of the above-mentioned link!
