  Now if it could play a clip of the music, then that would most certainly be perfect.

  If you love mecha, you should check out Bandai's MG line of models. Even if you don't like Gundam (which almost the entire line is) the engineering on newer models (anything 2005 and older) will be awesome. This month they came out with Gundam Epyon and in early August they'll be releasing Delta Plus.

  The MG line is a tad expensive, but they're pretty big models, and worth every penny at normal retail price. With newer models, almost no paint is required since the pieces are molded in the right colors. If you're good at painting, you can make them look even better than straight out of the box.

  
  
  I don't care for gundam, but I love the mechs. Post more?

  Sure. I'll post some new and old ones. (for the record, these are mostly production photos and a couple of finished ones. None of these are my models.)

  I've been a fan of Evangelion like 5-6 years ago. Collected few figures from Rei + Asuka to them reboltech Evangelions. But at the end, I didnt seem to be satisfied collecting someone else's artwork and putting money in their pocket. Since I can draw, I think being able to draw my own favorite characters makes me more than satisfied buying someone else's work. Probably in the future, I may be able to learn how to make my own Anime figure and sell those off 8D.
  
  So ya, at the end I only have Evangelion and Darkstalker figures, they are more than 5 years old \o/

  Oh god. I want that so badly. Almost as much as the Takemikazuchi
  
  Said Takemikazuchi (Which I found for like 5$ cheaper than normal :>):

  Anywhere that sells good ero figures? D:
  I checked jlist but even crappy ones that can't be stripped 100% are almost 200$ each. Also their selection is very poor. Not to mention most if not all the ones I saw there were pre-order (is that why they were so expensive?)
  
  Actually tempted to just sculpt and paint my own, saw some video guides for the materials needed.

  Those expensive ones are probably resin garage kits. They're made by independent casters generally. The reason a lot of them are pre order is because the casters need a certain amount of people who will buy before they will do a new production run. That's usually how it is. If they're not garage kits, then, I'm not sure why they're so expensive unless they're in a large scale.

  So there's no mass produced ero ones like the non-adult counterparts I see all over the place for well under 100$?
  I guess it would be more fun and more economical to make my own anyways, plus i'll learn something.

  Not saying there aren't, but, I'm just saying the ones you mentioned sound like garage kits, specifically since a lot of them were pre order. I've never really looked into ero figures, but I've seen garage kits on E2046. I'm reluctant to link there even though the specific product pages have 18+ warnings, but yeah. Quick Google search will turn that up so you can check them for cheaper stuff if you want.
