Diecast? Vehicle? Lights AND sound?! Holy moly what a plethora of features, and a pop-up headlight! This work of art is the bar that all 1/6 vehicles should be measured against. Superb cinematography as always! Those slow pans were gorgeous!
@@micenabled9418I agree, i would think it was maybe due the movie being so successful and seminal that nobody wanted to take the risk, and Katsuhiro Otomo probably did what he wanted with the manga and with the movie and maybe he saw no benefit into taking the manga to animation. But i would love to see a full anime series with the full story of the manga.
I got mine in early June at a local model kit store near where I live in Taiwan. It is absolutely beautiful and gorgeous. I feel very lucky that I was able to get the last one at that store at a price of 425 USD. It was really worth it!
This thing is amazing. The sounds it makes is the opening hatch and the sound of it driving is mostly straight out of the movie. I hate how expensive it is! I want one so much.
Ah man. RMB got me excited enough, but now... Must. Have! Canada's bike! (probably didn't help I watched the 4k disc the other night with my daughter haha - looks AMAZING)! Thanks for the vid Justin!!
Just received Shotaro Kanaeda and had to rewatch your video. Looking forward to your review once you get yours…if you are getting one of course. Great video 👍🏻
It's Expensive!,it will be because of the die-cast,but i absolutely love Akira,have to watch it again soon,& will have to think hard & fast about getting this & Kaneda,thanks for this video 😁👍
@@JustinsCollection Probably,i'm pretty sure that the 1/12th scale JL Batmobile may be coming at some point?!,Jazzinc were thinking of how to pack it for shipping showing us diagrams!,as i don't have nearly enough room it can take as long as it likes! 😬😏
Justin I've been lusting over this since I found out it was a thing.... and I sorta hate that I watched your review because you confirmed for me I have to have it now.
Hi Justin! I remember when this movie came out. It was a great film and I loved it. This bike just out of the box ulooks amazing and I would use Google translate to read the assembly manual. TBH this level of assembly does not seem too complicated so I think most people would be able to do it. This bike, even with out the fully panels is so nice looking. From the front to the back of the bike the quality in this toy is apparent. I can almost feel the weight of the bike as you are holding it in your hand. The color of the bike is perfect and the seat with its faux leather is realistic looking. And snap, the panels are on. I bet some members would watch you putting the panels on. The details on this bike are impressive. And the included lights and panel array in the front add to the vehicles authenticity. And sound effects too! This is so much fun to see the details in the sound effects fir the driving and the braking makes such a difference in the experience. And as promised the lights on look really cool. I’m also surprised that the head light/lamp is another feature that moves and adds to the experience. I love this bike! It’s the perfect rendition of the bike and would look excellent in any display! So there’s a great expectation for the Kaneda figure and I’m eager to see you pose it on the bike when you get it. Thank you for the video 😊💎
Ahhh, I remember buying the first release way back in time. It was an amazing piece back then and it is still amazing today. Im not sure what differences there are, if any. I think the old one included a sticker sheet so you can apply a variety of stickers how you wanted. iirc. You better get Kaneda!
@@JustinsCollection yes the original release came with a sideshow exclusive pack with extra fenders and decals to make it look like the cover from Manga. I still it and hvnt opened it yet
Lol! Yes he can. Actualy I got the original 10 years ago and recently for reason unknown, I got it out of the box with the 2 caoutchouc handles broken 😱. 2 days later, I figures out that Bandai was going to release the revival version!!! It save my life 😂
Is there any way to leave the lights on for more than 5 minutes? I have one myself and the lights are so cool, but I would like to leave them on for a longer period of time than that.
It's been awhile since I watched Akira, but that bike is awesome, I have the Mcfarlane Akira bike with kaneda and I still like it, but damn this one looks great!
@@JustinsCollection thank you so much , coule you please tell how much the full package weight ? Planning to order one but cant find the real weight an6where ...
Do you plan to do anymore transformers reviews in the future? Just wondering would love to see some more. That’s what I collect but I love all your reviews.
Perhaps the coolest vehicle ever. Competition would be your favourite USS Enterprise and Han Solo's Piece of junk. Does need Kaneda though. He needs two head sculpts, one for when he's driving and the other with the goofy expression when he's trying to chat up the girl.
This here is worthy to be a legendary grade collectable
It is!
God dang the price tho 😢

Thank you sir! I’m very proud of this one!
Akira was ahead of its time in the art animation department. Absolutely stunning visuals and still holds up today.
It's great!
I still dont get why it never got an anime that followed the Manga
@@micenabled9418I agree, i would think it was maybe due the movie being so successful and seminal that nobody wanted to take the risk, and Katsuhiro Otomo probably did what he wanted with the manga and with the movie and maybe he saw no benefit into taking the manga to animation.

@@JustinsCollection hi! Any idea why the light switches off after a few minutes? Possible to leave the display longer?
I’m 35 yrs old and I remember I first watched Akira when I was 8. Man if only I knew this bike was released . Damn I miss out
Damn!
Was gonna get the fig and bike, thank you for uploading so I can confirm my choice!
Nice!
I can always count on Justin for unbiased, thorough reviews and blame him for a lighter wallet 😅
I wish it wasn’t 1000 lmao
Thanks for the advanced look, Justin! Glad I have this on order! I plan on painting this and using it for some other character in my collection.
No problemo!
That'd be cool if they did more vehicles from Akira, they're designed so well in the bikes. They did a crazy nice job with this.
Agreed
Amazing Bike, was not going to miss out on it a second time, just set mine up and it’s awesome!
Go for it!
Akira is legend.. I was young when I saw it and fell in love. I’m 47.. Legend…
Nice!
You sound like a mash up of Howard Cosell and Winston Churchill [thats a good thing]. Awesome review!
Thank you!
now, imagine if you have Canada with the bike. man o man this piece is truly amazing!
Lol
Another amazing review sir! I’m waiting for mine to arrive - can’t wait after watching this!!
Hope you enjoy it!
That is BEAUTIFUL. Also best film EVER!
Love it!
Awww hell yeah gotta love some Akita I have always loved the look of this bike.
Yeah!

It definitely is!
I can't wait to get my hands on that thing in Christmas
Awesome!
It looks outstanding, the bike is one of my personal favorites.
It is!
I can just hear the hundreds of Akira fans typing pronunciation comments, you should check out the film its great.
KAAAAANEEEEHHH DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH......
TEEEEEEETSSSSSSSSOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I know. My bad
@@JustinsCollection Hey dont worry man you did your best, amazing review
12 year old me would enter a serotonin coma if this existed back then, I have to get this!
Haha nice
THIS IS LEGEND. AND REVIEW IS LEGEND
Thank you!
Just got that during my trip to Japan for a killer deal. Looking forward to see how I build it now
Nice!
Need a 1/6th Kaneda to go with this
Get him!
Great review on a piece from a LEGENDARY movie!!!
Thank you!
I'm glad you had/have heard of Ready Player One.
I have seen it!
@@JustinsCollection Love that movie wonder if there are any figures from the movie, I personally want a Diato Figure.
I know absolutely nothing about whatever series/movie that this comes from, but this looks pretty damn awesome.
Haha nice!
WOW 🤩 love it! Awesome 😎 bike! Great 👍🏻 review bro
Glad you liked it

Thanks so much for watching! It's a great item, I can't wait to show you the pose in a future video!
You should setup a dedicated lightbox with dramatic lighting for light up figures and models!
Maybe!
Ah yes Canada from Akira
… I have no words… in case I mispronounce them
Truly an amazing peace ✌️
It is!
oh gosh. the bike looks so awesome! you should let Deadpool sit inside! he is so close but did not enjoy the ride! lol
Next time!
i am ordering one in 2 weeks!!
Dope!
Breathtaking...
Yeah!
Love your vids
Thanks!

Please buy a akira kaneda figure for this bike and loved your videos so much
Of course!
Nice.. from the japanese online brochure site that it also have speaker mode using 3.5mm auxillary jack ?
Yeah
a fantastic relic of the movie that was icon in the anime culture
Noice
Hi , odd question but how do you maintain the rubber tires? Eventually they may start to “decay” and even sticky .. any suggestions? Thanks
Not sure I’ve never applied anything
So cool !!!!!!! The bike extremely good
It is!
@@JustinsCollection 🤯🤯 I'm a huge fan of the videos God bless u brother 🙏
This is a very cool model, but now I’m wondering if the throttle was on the foot or on hand?
The foot
Awesome, I got one payment left on this bad boy!
Awesome indeed!
The guy that was selling the original for the last....4-5 years on eBay for almost $3000 can now suck it :)))
Lol
Lol! Yes he can. Actualy I got the original 10 years ago and recently for reason unknown, I got it out of the box with the 2 caoutchouc handles broken 😱. 2 days later, I figures out that Bandai was going to release the revival version!!! It save my life 😂
Is kaneda out yet? I’m pretty sure he already is
Not sure sorry!
@@JustinsCollection thanks anyway
Is there any way to leave the lights on for more than 5 minutes? I have one myself and the lights are so cool, but I would like to leave them on for a longer period of time than that.
Not sure to be honest!
This is awesome. Very cool. Wanted to get one but space being a serious issue I had to pass.
Ah damn!
It's been awhile since I watched Akira, but that bike is awesome, I have the Mcfarlane Akira bike with kaneda and I still like it, but damn this one looks great!
It is awesome!
Great review! Million dollar question: Will it fit in my Detolf?!
It should!
@@JustinsCollection Guess there's only one way to find out. Ordering!
It wont fit on the detolf the bike is around 60cm wide so its better to *cough* order a bigger case.
Any idea where that round black item 14 goes?
Check the instructions
Classic animation 💥
It is!
I love your content stay cool
Thank you!
I wish they made a life size Ebike version
Maybe someone did
I wonder what other 1/6 scale vehicles these guys could come up with
Agreed!
WHEN ARE YOU GONNA REVIEW THE KANEDA FIGURE!!!!
NOT SURE
Legendary ! Thanks for the review, are those chrome part on the wheel real real metal or painted plastic chrome?
Thanks! Most are metal!
@@JustinsCollection thank you so much , coule you please tell how much the full package weight ? Planning to order one but cant find the real weight an6where ...
The tires are very smooth...
They are!
Very COOL how much does this beautiful beast cost?
A bit 😅
i need this 😍
Get it!
Is there an actual release date ? Pre-ordered mine in january, haven't had news since.
Soon I guess?
I was wondering/hoping you'd do a review on this.
Yeah!
The Todd mcfaline is a good grab also
Oh
I'm in love again 💗💗💗💗
Haha nice!
Great review and spectacular ride.
An appropriately scaled Ghost Rider figure would have worked better for the biker theme,though
Thanks!
Looks SO good! It's way out of my price range, but I pre-ordered the 1/6 Kaneda figure and can't wait for that release!
Damn!
Do you plan to do anymore transformers reviews in the future? Just wondering would love to see some more. That’s what I collect but I love all your reviews.
ThreeZero? Yep!
Bro Can you please display the latest iron man suit
Dispaly?
@@JustinsCollection can u plzz show the mk85 Ironman suit
dude, they disappeared so fast I couldn't believe it!!!
Damn!
What was retail on this? And have they now sold out?
Link in the description
@@JustinsCollection Yeah its no longer working
awesome collections..
Glad you like them!
Did you end up getting Kaneda?
No unfortunately
Stunning vehicle
It is!
I love that I hope to buy it
I did
does the bike fit in a detolf?
I don’t think so
@@JustinsCollection ok, I just ordered it and the Kaneda figure. Will see for myself soon. :) Its just too good and iconic to pass up.
you never showed it lite up with the headlight......
Yes I did
CANADAAAAAAAAAA
Oh man it begins
How much was the bike? Is it worth buying..
Link in the description
I found it on ali express still confused
Oh sorry
@@JustinsCollection yes i was scammed 🥲 i should have watched this video before blind buying
Mine is literally like a toys kids 🙁
The movie is so good I'm going to get the manga as well
Nice!
Dope bike🤑
Thank you!
It sounds so crunchy for its price
It's a bit creaky but that's because its plastic panels over a die cast frame
Now if only we ca get Racer X's car the Shooting Star and the Mach 5 in a broken down technical format like this
Maybe one day
You should do more anime action figure reviews
Will do
if it wasn't that expensive, Id make a custom out of it
Oh ok
Very awesome anime
It is!
Oh no my country is Bangladesh. it's true.
Nice
My dude keeps calling him “Canada” 🙄🤣
*sigh it begins, I tried my best with the pronunciation
@@JustinsCollection It’s hilarious , so many collectors just talk about the toys. No time spent researching source material smh
Perhaps the coolest vehicle ever. Competition would be your favourite USS Enterprise and Han Solo's Piece of junk.
Does need Kaneda though. He needs two head sculpts, one for when he's driving and the other with the goofy expression when he's trying to chat up the girl.
It’s awesome indeed!
Looks like yusei fudo’s bike
Whom?
@@JustinsCollection I send you a picture on Instagram 😁
Its very loud while your holding it
Oh sorry!
@@JustinsCollection I mean by the plastic on it like a creeking rocking chair
Your toy is very very nice and real. Oh my god wrestler man rock toy making you. please Justin you are my best friend.
Thanks!
Early pepe's where are u
Hey!
Either you have tiny hands or that thing is huuuuuuge
It is huge
@@JustinsCollection jesus, doesn't need to be much bigger before you can actually ride it.
I thought it was kamen rider kenshin's bike lol haha
Lol
so expensive 😫
Worth it!
