AKIRA: Kaneda & Bike in 1/6 by Project BM! x Medicom Toy

All I want for Christmas is this 1/6-scaled Kaneda and his bike from Medicom Toy ~ that's not too much to ask for, innit? Of course the March-2010 release date might be a tad hurdle for Santa to cross, but am sure he could pull some strings, no? Well, this might not be the latest-of-news, but hey, if the cyber-punk anime lore of AKIRA could endure + survive decades, surely this toy would last longer than an instant news-byte? (*cough*). Here are more drool-inducing peeks and information about Project BM!'s KANEDA SHOTARO and 1/6-Scale KANEDA's BIKE!
