Lost Planet 2 Toys Stomping Their Way Into Mech Lovers' Hearts
After looking at the image above, if your first thought was, "stupid, high fantasy garbage," stop reading this story, and watch the video below. I'm not trying to convince you that mechs will soon be our primary means of transportation (which they will be by 2015), or that robots will be the harbinger of our doom (spring 2018); I just wanted you to walk away from this story with a smile on your face rather than a scowl. Consider this your digital rainbow for the day.
If you are interested in Lost Planet 2, and found the image above to be mad sexy, read on and drool as much as you want. Capcom and toy manufacturer, Kotobukiya, are teaming up to bring four detailed toys to store shelves this May (hopefully in time for the game's May 18 release date). The figures stand in between five and six inches in height, and all four offer at least 20 points of articulation. All four also carry a SRP of $39.99. Here's hoping Kotobukiya will follow this series up with a second line dedicated exclusively to the Akrid! A special thanks goes out to GI reader, Tom Swanson, for the news tip!
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
