Computer Games: As well as being released in Japan only, Gunnm Martian Memory was also released on an older console. This means that it is pretty difficult to get hold of in the UK, and although some import shops may sell it we haven't seen it for sale which makes it hard to estimate how much it would cost. If you find anywhere selling this game let us know. Garage Kits: Although there are several designs available the most common appear to be the 'Rebirth' kit shown above and one of Alita in a brown coat. Both of these kits appear regularly on dedicated model kit sites such as Frontier Models, where they sell for around £60 each, and some sites will also build and paint the models for you for an additional charge (usually about £40). Other kits are less common but can still be found at trade fairs and in some dedicated model shops. Dolls: We have never seen these dolls for sale, and as they were a limited run several years ago they would be very hard to get hold of now. Your best bets are auction sites* and specialist Japanese retailers that sell second hand goods such as Mandarake. If you find anywhere selling these dolls let us know. *Auction sites can be rife with unscrupulous individuals who will knowingly sell you pirated goods. Although the risk is mainly with DVD and CD purchasing, there is a notable amount of pirated toys and apparel cropping up too. To minimise the risk of being ripped off make sure you check Digital Animé's excellent Piracy FAQ. |
