New Konami UFO candy toys

Hi all,

Apparently there will be some upcoming Gerry Anderson
dioramas from Konami. The UFO ones will feature
the Interceptor and SHADO mobiles:

I don't know when these are going to be released,
or where you can get them.

Awesome! Looks like they have the detail down on the Interceptor
Silo! (The diorama for the mobiles doesn't thrill me, tho)

As you know, I was working on a diorama for the Interceptor, but
got too busy. I would've wasted my effort. Perhaps I'll rework
it for the Product Enterprise Interceptor.

I'd love to see it with a circular crater, not a square one! :-)

Anthony, you going to be getting these in?

Thanks Marc!
Dan

They also have SHADAIR with three mini-mobiles:

FAB Gear will absolutely be carrying these. We'll put them up for
pre-order as soon as we get a solicitation from our vendors.

The details are not yet specified, but this time, it is rumored that
there are no "secret items", because they will not be sold
separately ...i.e. they(11 items for one series) will be sold
as "complete set" only.

The price for the "set"(11 items for one series) may be about 9000
yen.

Cool, though i'm not too keen on having to buy the 5 vehicles over
agian. Plus with the markup, if the retailers keep them in a set, i'm
sure they are going to mark them up to at least $110 US or break them
up and charge $20-40 for the dios.
