Current Japanese forces on Atlantis

[Westfalia Chris]

Nope, no naff plotless aliens  Just some BIG steam mechs (with a possible train to carry them on    )

Haaaaaaa!

Glad someone else has seen it 

Even though I generally prefer MS Gundam (I really, really like the Igloo serials) for "plausibility" (yeah yeah I know), Kishin Heidan must by my absolute favourite mechabash series when it comes to style and design (not necessarily of all the characters, though). It may be some family conditioning (my grandfather, a radio engineer, invented the hexode tube and the single-ended tube), but I was totally enamoured by the tube racks used to start the Kishins.

I got the series on UK VHS back in early 1997, and they are pretty much the reason I kept my VCR for so long. I really hope they'll do a proper DVD edition (preferably with subtitled Japanese language track as an option) once.

Yeah, Ive been keeping a loose eye out for it ever now and then. The last time I saw it was about 13-14 years ago. There's not a lot on the net either

Nice looking army you have there, especially the mounted samurai - very colourful.
