When I was a kid I loved watching the americanized version of the Space Battleship Yamato - Starblazers.
Recently I've been watching the updated 2199 version. The animation is awesome to watch and very cinematic. I was amazed at how well it was done and also glad to see it in the Japanese format with subtitles. No more "Captain Avatar" and "Derek Wildstar", now the intended Captain Okita and Susume Kodai etc...
At any rate. I love the ship designs, so here are the Bandai 1/72 fighters from the series I've done so far
Yamamoto's Alpha 2 Cosmo Zero
Kato's Como Falcon
And the figures (these guys are smaller than 1" so zoomed in real close the paint looks a little lumpier than I'd have liked)
and here they are next to some other popular 1/72 friends. Funny the petite anime compared to the hulking rebels
