New/Updated Images Of The S.O.C. GX-57 Space Battleship Yamato by Bandai

Updated Images Of The GX-57 Space Battleship Yamato by Bandai. Due in late November for23,100 YEN.

Will play 4 song clips from the original Japanese show (Sorry Starblazers fans) and 6 sound effects ranging from gun/gun's firing to engine sounds.

Also showcased in the images below are all of the light-up and action features. This pretty much looks like the Yamato (or Argo) toy any fan of the series ever wanted. Yeah, I know what I want for Christmas...

BANDAI - GX-57 Space Battleship Yamato

I'm beginning to like it even more, now. Luckily I didn't buy the Soul of Popynica version.

I'm still very happy with my

I'm still very happy with my SOP Yamato, but the promise of a matching Andromeda made this version a must-buy. :-)

It'd be nifty if you could output the sounds to a speaker system, like that large-scale model from a few years ago. But that might be asking for a bit much.

The only big difference I'm seeing so far is a 3-stage wave motion gun lighting sequence. Everything else is similar to the SOP.

And for some reason it seems to be lacking in detail. Maybe it doesn't have final paint apps yet?
