Candy Boy GiveawayOriginally took notice of DC when a friend linked me here for figurine photos, a couple design iterations back. Kept visiting because I found the various photo articles interesting and because I'd often find out new info via member news. My time spen...
Mirai GaiaI would really prefer that the member news section returns in some form. Replacing DC.com member news (which provide a great deal of content in between Danny's posts) with Figure.fm members news seems to slant DC.com heavily towards the figure stuff....
20090407 Giveaway WinnerTough competition, since retail price differs quite a bit depending on where you look... oh well! Better luck next time, hopefully.
Mac Life 4I use PCs at home and Macs at school for work. I've become quite comfortable with using Macs and think they've got some really great features, but I'm not willing to take the plunge and convert my home work environment to Macs just yet. Perhaps once...
Sora wo Kakeru ShoujoGreat-looking figure, though it seems likely she'll be a leaner as time goes on. That pose is really asking for her to be looked at from behind...
Fighting High School GirlsWhat's this got to do with Lucky Star? Video makes no sense, but I watched the entire thing anyway because what the heck is going on.
20090110 Giveaway - Kodansha InternationalI'm going to have to say 7, with 5 instances being dolls/figurines and 2 being text.
This is like Where's Waldo, except even more perplexing.
Volks' Fate T.HarlaownDon't think much of the eyes, but those legs are amazing. Little wonder Fate chooses not to cover herself up with a skirt like that grandma Nanoha.
Alter and GSC Sakura NankyokuDon't think I've ever seen a "gothloli yukata" before. I'd go with that one since I like the pose in addition to the uniqueness.
Haruka TakamoriI've got mostly Max Factory figures (mostly figma + a regular 1/8 PVC) and one GSC figure. Don't particularly have brand loyalty or anything, just find that MF/GSC tends to make the things I like the most. Alter does make some great figurines, but th...
Japan and SmokingI don't smoke and I never intend to, though I have to admit I'm really somewhat curious about the experience. I can imagine it trying it out then ending the experience after one inhalation and a lot of coughing.
Human MageWonderful looking figures, both of them. Also surprised the L2 figure is cast-offable, wonder if the company behind L2 is endorsing this sort of thing?
Figure ReleasesSeems like most retailers will offer a slight discount on the base unit price, perhaps because they order in bulk from the manufacturer and get a volume discount. After adding in shipping (especially EMS), the final cost may be comparable to plain re...
Princess ResurrectionI love the character design in the anime, but unfortunately the series itself is rather lackluster. Sometimes a great-looking character can carry a poor series all on its own, but in this case it's pretty so-so.
Lovely figure, though. I can see that...
Your BookmarksI just keep all my bookmarks in Firefox, slightly organized via different folders. I don't subscribe to any RSS feeds since a) most sites I visit don't use that sort of thing and b) I've just been too lazy to try it out. I guess it would probably be...
British Embassy in TokyoIt is at last time for the Britannia to begin its invasion of Area 11. The ambassador clearly wants your help and support by infiltrating the otaku networks...
That, or maybe he's just lonely and wants to talk to another British English speaker.
Girls Change in ClassroomIn high school marching band, we (guys and girls) would often have to change on the bus into our uniforms. At the beginning there were lots of jokes and a bit of peeping (not hard when all you need to do is look over your shoulder), but by the end of...
Content Aware ScalingCS3 hasn't been out for THAT long, and CS4's already made this much progress. The march of technology, huh? I have a random mix of software: Photoshop CS2, Illustrator and Dreamweaver CS3, Flash 8. I guess I should try and update so they're all consi...
