Parents, Partners and your Figuresaction figures isn't that just the term they use to say "dolls for guys" hahaha...if you look at the old g.i joes they were basically military ken dolls.
in the end i think its all art...how things are sculpted and painted determine if its worth buy...
Parents, Partners and your Figuresmy parents are old school chinese, every time i buy something nonfunctional to living, eating, sleeping and pooping they tell me i'm wasting my money and they should look after it.
they've said that about video games, comic books, trading cards, and...
A Week in Tokyo 21these are always great to read...finally have sometime to read your blog.
i'm am defiantly all for eco friendly packaging but i like the way the figures come in, they don't get damaged even if the box gets mangled. don't they offer recyclable plasti...
Your Definition of DC.Comi would describe dannychoo.com to be an otaku informant site. it has information that encompasses the otaku culture and the daily life of one :)

Krispy Kreme Tokyooh krispy kreme making people fatter one doughnut at a time.

Bilingual in Japanand i forgot french...being on the west coast you rarely have to use it...maybe if i move out to montreal that would change. i think i studied that for about 3 years...hardly remember a thing of it.
Bilingual in Japanin my case i have to speak cantonese because my parents don't speak english so i do understand that situation. since i grew up learning english i use cantonese less and less. however it helped a lot in high school because of the boom in chinese immig...

Tokyo Housingdowntown hastings is probably the most run down area in vancouver, and i would say the crime down there is pretty high compared to most places in vancouver. drug dealings, break ins, theft and the such and in broad day light too. got my car broken in...

Tokyo Housingthe housing is settling a bit here...there has been a huge increase in house prices in the recent years, even old homes that look run down are expensive.
as for run down homes it seems to depend on the city, there are cities that have tons of nice...
Shunya Yamashitafacial expression is easier to get on 2d drawings than it is to sculpt, however i am not saying that its impossible. also it depends on the sculptor and his/her discussion as well, i find the stuff done my movic is very different compared to the stuf...
Shunya Yamashitahow are the busts?
they just don't seem as appealing as the figures so I don't buy them and I find their kind of expensive for only half the statue.
Shunya YamashitaThe first time I ever saw his stuff I loved it, there are only a few illustrators works I really like. I'm not really into the whole big eyes thing so alot of illustrators turn me off.
Deadly WhiskeyI guess I have one question, was it difficult for this guy to get a new job because I would just quit if I was being abused like that. And if you encounter employee abuse, where I live, you can always file a lawsuit against the company.
As for attem...

Tokyo TrainsYou can never get away from smelly people especially if "street people" get on the train, since security is almost no existent here.

But I haven't been terribly impressed with the busts, I w...
Japanese Deodorantit varies... pretty much most people smell of deodorant, i think the only problem with using deodorant is the excessive smell.
people naturally emit pheromones in order to attract the opposite gender. That could be a reason why they don't really mar...
Photoshop Powerwell it depends on if you plan to use the new features in CS3, i can be still using version 4 and be happy with it since i mainly use it only for painting.

Japan Online Gamingi find being able to go online and download demos and trying them out on a console is nice to finally have, rather than having to pay like 50 cents for a demo disk or something like the old gaming days. i'm still not really a big fan of playing games...
Figure Requesti' a big shunya yamashita fan so defiantly anything done by him...overall for me it just how it looks, not too big on series because illustrators vary so you get lots of different looking figures and i've had some buyers regret with some of the well...
