Super Robot Chogokin - Anti-Gurren Lagann

Although the Anti-Spiral is able to overwhelm the Dai-Gurren Dan with immense force, they choose to take a form similiar to the foes in order to inflicting absolute despair upon their defeat.

Out-of-box content. Drills, lots and lots of drill.

Front view of the Anti-Gurren Lagann. This is basically Gurren Lagann with a different colour scheme.

Close-up on the front. This figure also spot a different head design with a featureless face. In another word, this mecha does not show any emotion which suits the Anti Spirals theme very well.

Bandai gave us 3 additional face plate with different emotion for us to express ourselves. I actually prefered all those alternative face plate.

It comes with 2 pairs of long pointy purple drills.

Time for some action poses.

Drills were made from soft rubber material so it does not really hold up straight like a solid drill.

My drill will pierce the heaven! Opppsss wrong slogan.

Hey you over there! Yes! You!!!

I have a pair of wings which fits Anti-Gurren perfectly.

Most people might not know where this mecha originated from. It is neither in the anime series nor the OVA. It was actually made especially for the Super Robot War series. I am not sure if Banpresto intentionally refused to put TTGL (Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann) into the game due to power balance issue or they are just trying to save the best for later. Since there are no TTGL so there would not be any Granzeboma. The Anti-Spiral need a mecha to represent themselves hence the Anti-Gurren Lagann was borned. The black and red colour scheme gave this mecha a gloom and menacing appearance, befitting the Anti-Spiral.

The design of the figure was great besides the oversized knees. Initially, it looks kind of awkward but the design actually grows on me. Articulation was great with a lot of metal parts. The finishing on the figure was great with minor or neglectable flaw. Grab this figure if you are a fan of the series. I highly recommend it for your collection.
