Thirty years ago, Crusher Joe and his team first tore into action in an SF novel by Studio Nue co-founder Haruka Takachiho. That led to more novels, manga, a film, OVAs, and today's fond memories for a slew of fans--who can now celebrate that start with Wave's exceptional 1/500 W.H.A.M.! Minerva and 1/10 Alfin PVC!
