Tokyo Figure Show Report'Grats on the Figma Mirai, she looks great! I'm really happy for you in light of how many things you've achieved since I started reading your site in '06, very inspirational :)
Hot Toys Iron ManHot Toys stuff is really awesome these days, my bf got this Iron Man and I love how well made it is. Thinking of getting the Michael Jackson one (whatever anyone says, he's still a music legend) :)

20090326 Giveaway - Your RoomGreat contest, awesome way to celebrate the otaku room! Just moved and most of my figures are still boxed up so I'll have to pass, but am looking forward to viewing all the entries :)
Figma Mirai ProgressCongrats Danny, it's a thrill to see dreams can come true if you have the right determination :) Been reading your site since '06 for figure news and it's amazing to see how things have grown! Will be getting a Figma Mirai to support you (hopefully s...
Abunai SistersThat's 3 mins of my life I'll never get back, ugh. The sisters are far from hideous (the one from the left seems to love the plastic surgeon a bit too much though) but the time+funds that went into these pointless CG eps could have gone into somethin...
Treasure FestaMy favourite by a mile was clips' GK of Range Murata's Chord Liner:

Vispo's stuff was also lovely as always :)
Obama Action FigureIt's pretty strange - all the pics I've seen don't quite look like him, but I saw the actual figure in a store recently and the resemblance is actually pretty good. My bf is getting this lol.

GSC 1:7 Scale Saber LilySigh GSC, just when I thought the Gift one would be my last Saber ;w; 2009 just started and I already know what I'm getting in June, orz
Best and Worst Anime of 2008Didn't watch much this year, but found Kurenai the best. Also liked Macross Frontier tons, but that's not everyone's cup of tea so I can understand why some people would hate it.
Worst - Kanokon, god I want my wasted time back =_=
Partner of an OtakuWell said, and I'm glad to hear your wife wasn't only accepting of your hobby, but took an interest in it and now you can enjoy series and such together =)
OT: My s/o knows about my hobby and he thinks it's cool. I got him to try out anime (he likes...
Hobby ComplexGreat coverage, pics loaded fine for me :) Highlight for me is Daiki's PVC of diskvision's EVE (not pictured here but I saw her over at akibahobby), always wished she was covered up for general display and Daiki modified the kit just so.
Gift Figure YokoI'm torn. On one hand, she's gorgeous and 1/5 to boot - on the other, I'm wondering whether to hold out for the perfect dynamic Yoko in action with her rifle >o<
Figma MiraiGreat work, she's so cute! Voted Figma though I'd love a Nendoroid as well, but the latter wins out slightly bc Figmas are a lot easier to pose (most Nendos tip over w/o the plastic stands, haha ^^;; ).
Your Fave Anime OP and EDMm, what comes to mind atm:
Animation + music wise, the Lucky Star OP is definitely up there (probably the only series where I never fast forward during the OP XD).
Some of these I love for the animation + music, some just the music:
OPs: Black L...
KarinI wish Koto made a full figure of her instead of that bust. She's gorgeous, and I daresay e2046's painting looks better than the quality of the Koto Shunya busts.
Wall-e JapanWALL-E was easily my favourite movie of the year. Poignant, funny, extremely touching - Pixar has outdone itself again. My bf knew I adored the characters so he got me WALL-E and EVE figures days after we saw the film, looking at them makes me happy...
Christmas DecorationsOh god, the petit nendo Mikuru is too cuuuuute with the xmas stuff >ω< My family is a little strange, some years we put up a tree, some years we don't ^^;;
Japanese MarriagesCongrats on the 12th wedding anni! ^^ As for the question I'd prefer a simple registration, my partner and I are rather practical people and don't want to spend a ton on a lavish wedding.
Haruka TakamoriLovely dynamic figure, great Alter work as always.
My collection is mostly Max Factory (made worse by the recent deluge of Figmas!), but GSC is catching up because it's just so hard resisting those cute little Nendoroid buggers.
