Re: Where to find Gurren Lagann figures?

What Gurren Lagann figures or merchandise are you looking to get? If you're looking for revoltechs, most anime shops will carry them. Unfortunately, my knowledge of which anime shops are good doesn't really extend as far as BC. Have you tried HJL or BBTS?

If you're looking for the impact series, or the resin model kits, or other stuff like that, like the yoko clevage wrist support mouse pad, you may have to order from Japan.

Re: Where to find Gurren Lagann figures?

That's a tough one. I was in Tokyo and I bought it in TRU and it was the last one. I couldn't find it anywhere here or in the toy markets in Japan. Maybe go to Soul of Anime and see if they can special order it. Other than that, Ebay is probably the best bet and it's super expensive. Good luck.

Re: Where to find Gurren Lagann figures?

The Great Impact is -hellish- to get ahold of, I'm afraid. There's usually a couple on ebay but they're marked up to $300+.

Re: Where to find Gurren Lagann figures?

It was about that much when I was in HK last spring. So I picked it up in Tokyo. I was lucky though, the TRU I went to had at least ten and I was able to get the employee to help me open them all and check for paint jobs. Maybe it was just the batch I had to look through but it wasn't easy finding a nicely painted face. Good luck on your quest. It is a really nice figure.
