I use Firefox on my PC and Safari on my Mac - I tried to use FF on the Mac but it just did not feel quite as stable as the PC version. ( View formatted comment » )

I import quite a lot of ufo catcher prizes and I personally think the quality is very very good for the cost of the items. Sega, Taito and Banpresto are my favourite companies, I would say they consistently release good quality items. I would imagine that it would be very difficult to actually WIN something from an actual ufo catcher machine though ;) I used to live in the UK and never ever saw any decent prizes in crane games, just stuffed animals generally. Here in Canada the situation is pretty much the same. Maybe one day we will get the quality that Japan gets, not holding out hope though. ( View formatted comment » )

Very nice detail on the dress but not so keen on the face. I also prefer poses with a bit more motion to them. ( View formatted comment » )

I like to collect trading figures, there are lots of great sets out there. I particularly like the 'One Coin' series by Kotobukiya - good quality at a great price. ( View formatted comment » )

I think the Ringo figure looks superb, really nice job by Yamato. Not sure if it would fit in with the rest of my collection though. ;) My favourite Air Gear figure is the Creators' Labo Simca one. ( View formatted comment » )
