i recently acquired a repro of alita from a 
friend in japan, so i thought i'd ask if anyone 
knew of any more. it's still on it's way, so 
i'll check it out when it arrives. i'm sure it's 
good, though, from a reputable shop and cost a 
good amount ($225, which is less than i expected 
but there is one on yahoo! japan right now for 
about $200...). thanks again for the info.
