Chambers

Along the shore the cloud waves break,
The twin suns sink behind the lake,
The shadows lengthen
In Carcosa.

Strange is the night where black stars rise,
And strange moons circle through the skies,
But stranger still is
Lost Carcosa.

Songs that the Hyades shall sing,
Where flap the tatters of the King,
Must die unheard in
Dim Carcosa.

I'm unfamiliar with this line of Japanese mechs, but it's pretty impressive; individual soldier action figures with tons of accessories large and small mechs and "secret base" block components... all have a modern iraq war era feel with some "heavy Gear" and "Armored Core" styling. very modern video game-ish.
