Doll ShowDoll Show 25 took place yesterday at the Tokyo Trade Center in Takeshiba. You can easily get there from Hama Matsucho station on the JR Yamanote line.
Been to many figure events over the past few years. Most of what I saw was the same thing again...
Hobby ComplexIts been a while since I stuffed over 100 photos in an article. The last time I done so was when the photos were hosted on dannychoo.com - the server would always go down due to the load.
Now that all article photos are hosted on my Flickr account,...
YouTube Live TokyoWas invited by comrades at Google to YouTube Live Tokyo - the reason why I could not stay in Singapore for AFA. The most awesome thing about Live Tokyo was getting to meet n network with a load of other YouTubers too like the lovely Magibon.
GSC and MAX partyA party was held for the staff of GSC (Good Smile Company), Max Factory and other related folks from the figure/game/anime and IT industry. "IT industry" = Hector and I ^^;

Today we are going to take a look at some of the Figma’s and according to comrade Shimazou at Hobby Stock, some of these Nendo...
Ecchi MechaI thought I took more but looks like I didnt take as many ecchi pics as I did last time. So we have a strange combination today - Ecchi (NSFW), Mecha and Boys ^^;
Wonder FestivalCompletely knackered from today's Wonfes. While there were less booths due to a much smaller hall, the trekking around still wore me out ^^;
BTW, the Good Smile live broadcast has started over at NicoNico. You need a NicoNico account to view it....
TAF 2008More from the Tokyo Anime Fair 2008.
Starting with one of the first anime titles I started to watch when first learning Japanese 15-ish years ago - Kimagure Orange Road.
Just watched the OP for Orange Road below which brought back a flood of no...
OtakuThe last installment of the Wonfes coverage which consists of the remaining bishojo figures.
I know many of you are not into figures and are more interested in the Japan articles like A Week in Tokyo but do you have a quick gander at the figure a...
Tokyo Big SightThe next batch of photos from Wonfes held at the Tokyo Big Sight last Sunday are a strange mix of stuff ^^;
In here you will find Haruhi, dolls and some mecha but no sign of a Mecha Haruhi Doll.
As for this first figure - cant remember who made...
Bishoujo FigureGot a ton of photos left and am having challenges sorting everything out. I cant put more than 70 images in an article or the server keeps going down due to the traffic ^^;
Decided to sort this article into a Gurenn Lagann, Hatsune Miku, Idol Maste...
Wonfes AdultNext up is all the adult stuff at the Wonfes. As with the previous Ikkitousen Girls article, I didn't Mirai-mark any of these photos at all so please please turn away if you are offended by the sight of bare naked eyes.
Some of these figures left m...
KaiyodoNext up are the Revoltech Goodies by Kaiyodo.
I really must make a point of finishing off Gurenn Lagann. Have not come across this in the anime yet. Does it appear near the end?
KotobukiyaNext up are the goodies at the Kotobukiya booth.
First up is Erika Sendo from the eroge Fortune Arterial. This is a Softbank Creative limited edition - managed to pre-order mine before they cut off the orders.
Ikkitousen GirlsThe Wonder Festival coverage started with a few teasers in the News Items a few hours ago and now continues with the Ikkitousen girls. Scroll to the end of the post to see how the coverage will be delivered.
A word of warning though - I've not ha...
YotsubaMore pictures from the WHL.
I dont know much about Yotsuba so not sure why everybody seems to be going crazy over her (I presume its a her? ^^;)
Toy EventsUp next is the figure stuff from the chara hobby.
I like Noiji Ito-sans work and liked the look of Nanatsuiro Drops but Sumomo's character put me off from watching any further than ep1. Some baka girls are cute but she seemed a bit too baka ^^;
TimeLeapOne of the most interesting games I spotted at the Comike - could this be the Idol Master killer?
TimeLeap is an eroge to be released by Front Wing this December for Windows - the same company that brought us Fauna in Megachu and Kimihagu.
A...
Rocket GirlsVery cute figure of Yukari Morita spotted at the Wonderful Hobby Life for Wholesalers & Retailers event. They need to think of a shorter name for that event ^^;
Anime PantiesComike coverage continues with pantsu!
These pantsu are printed with characters from the eroge Haruruko. Cant remember how much they cost or whether they were a Comike limited item but there were a lot of people just staring at them. They were ha...

The event was set up for folks in the figure industry to talk business and is not open to the p...
Comiket DakimakuraNext up are the dakimakura or anything printed on a cloth or pillow that I could spot at the Comiket.
Most of the images in this post could be considered NSFW depending on where you work and who's watching you at the time.
Could be wrong but I...
GundamNext up is the Gundam stuff from Chara Hobby.
This is a coolsome Musha Gundam mod at the Hobby Japan booth. Always feeling like playing Gundam Musou whenever I look at this.
