Local Anime Shops
I notice a good deal of people on here talk about shopping in stores for their anime/figures/manga/models. Around my area there are maybe three anime type stores, all of which aren't that current when it comes to stocking stuff. None take preorders a... ( view detail page » )

Heroes Season 2 DVD/Season 3
Just picked up the Heroes Season 2 special edition DVD box set and rewatched the really short season. It has a bonus disc that includes scenes from episodes 12 and 13 which were apparently filmed before the writers' strike and weren't aired (obviousl... ( view detail page » )

Anime Shirts
After the article about being "proud to be an otaku" I decided to take a pic of all of my anime/Japanese shirts. I especially like the Rockman one, the Gurren Lagann ones are awesome and the seppuku one (the yellow one with the ukiyoe looking samurai... ( view detail page » )

Engrish Bento
I got these bento at a local Japanese grocery store like 7-8 years ago, and I use them to keep extra figure parts in, mainly. The lower one actually has pumpkin and melon flavored Kit-Kats in it. ^^ Anyone else own any Engrishy stuff that they're pro... ( view detail page » )

Eye Up Yoko
Had a preorder in for this Yoko a while back, and she's pretty dead-on. I actually had an ad for the DVD with this artwork of her in this exact pose hanging above my monitor by sheer coincidence when I first looked at this figure. I've never heard of... ( view detail page » )

Creepy Star
Found this pic a while ago, and the perspective and style I felt were cool, but the ominous clouds in the background, as well as the characters were a little off. Kagami and Konata's hands look almost old man, or ape-like, they're huge! Overall the p... ( view detail page » )

Movic Version Yoko
This Yoko from Movic drops in October, and I have to say I don't really like her. From afar I almost want to preorder her, the pose is cool, she's got a bullet between her fingertips, lotsa cleavage. But up close, her eyebrows seem to be painted in s... ( view detail page » )

Lucky Star Figma
Already have the Konata Figma, and for the sake of completeness (and cuteness!) I have Tsukasa here preordered as well as Kagami. I didn't think I'd like them due to the visible joints thing, but that quickly faded once I started posing her. Tsukasa ... ( view detail page » )
