I’m a huge fan of the R-Type game series and I’m a complete sucker for diecast models.  So seeing this diecast replica model of R-Type‘s “Madou Gokin RWF-9A Arrow Head” fighter completely made my day.  I should just go home now, except for the fact that I need to make the $129.90 it costs to pre-order this baby.

5.11″ long, significantly larger than the shoot’em up ships in Yujin’s Shooting Historica sets, this figure features a fully painted body, a purple cockpit canopy, and a Force Unit pod directly in front of the craft, protecting it from incoming blasts and any junk you want to throw at it while simulating a space battle at home.

This would make a great Christmas present…hint hint.
