'm cured! Yes, after a few months of passion robotics, the hangover is gone and impulses purchase almost dormant, due to the concomitant competition for certain adverse events. In addition to the satisfaction resulting from being taken off a series of whims.
To better follow my thoughts freely let me start from the beginning.
October 2010, arrived in Italy in the first part of the new proposal Bandai, the Mazinger Z Series Super Robot Chogokin . Imported officially by the Cosmic Group, is quietly and not only in comic books (I've also seen the FNAC) at a price very low, especially for those used to buy Japanese models in our own stores. A highly detailed robot, made of a mixture of metal and plastic, just 35 €. Do not resist and I buy it at the bottom of the cartoon Mazinger is a myth of my childhood.
From the moment I find myself very satisfied, to the point of devoting a Videorecensione , While a whole new passion slowly mounts. If there is indeed a regret that I carry around since I was very young, is to have had very good parents, but little attention when it was deemed unnecessary interest from them. Put simply, when I asked them to give me for Christmas or birthday, this or that toy, they could always find the copiaccia Chinese, which I then trimmed off with excuses of the type that was more beautiful, or that it was the new version of what I wanted to. Ovviamene it was blatant bullshit that no child would swallow anything, and that ended for me to accumulate a growing dissatisfaction, especially when the neighbor showed me his collection of original Ceppiratti robot, to which I could not replicate this with a Goldurà k , who had just Grendizer horns ...
Okay, maybe I'm just going to fish out balls that are just to justify yet another waste of hard-earned money, the fact is that at that Mazinger was followed by other arrivals, even after a sensational series of fortunate coincidences.
Within a few weeks, in fact, it happened that friends gave me for Christmas the second output of the SRC, the Great Mazinger, I found the reproduction of the deals' Arcadia Captain Harlock (favorite anime ever n1), who sell out on HLJ (25 € instead of 120) 's Ingram 01 the CM's Corporation (I love Patlabor), while the usual Bandai was out playing the Nausicaa Gunship (n2 favorite anime of all time).
In the midst of so many marvels drawn from the series that I loved so deeply , there is also fled the purchase of ' Alteisen , the third release of Bandai SRC. Unlike earlier, this time the purchase was dictated by motives purely collections also: I did not know neither the robot nor the series that inspired, but had come to my comic shop, it cost the right and allowed me to pursue the collection of Chogokin Super Robot .
Nice looking, not for nothing I immediately joined the two Mazinger. But there was something that bothered me. I could not understand what it was, but the worm has crept and began to grow, to come out after a double event that forced me to rethink my plans for collectors.
Bandai fact began to seriously test my nascent passion for releasing the SRC series Mazinkaiser a limited-edition, in practice the average price of € 50 is squirted to 170 of store Italian, with lots of greetings to the series created economic as an alternative to the more expensive of Soul of Chogokin . Not to mention that after the excellent debut with two Mazinga, loomed on the horizon other arrivals of robot history, if not the Reideen that Italy has never been broadcast.
Meanwhile, the CM's Corporation finally reveal the specifications of its Jeeg , which is always the robot I like most of all.
The greedy Japanese company has announced for this model - another version of the incomplete (missing the Big Shooter components and underwater) - a cost that pre-order is around 200 € (more if you wait for the release)! I resolved to buy it, but at a similar price, even without all the accessories and with a probably lower quality proposals Bandai ... In short, it was hard to decide.
So what? Proceed with the collections also fancies or let it go?
As I said, I gave up, without any particular regret: on the contrary, I found a way to sell the ' Alteisen , so you only have featured pieces that I really care, such as those listed above. For the future I imagine there will be other acquisitions robotic, but always within certain spending limits and only series I know and appreciate: For the rest, we return to the girlie!
