Elite core centipede! That is an awesome work of art. Yeah, it's scary but it's cool at the same time. It reminds me of the doll/caterpillar puppet from Fred Stuhr's video for the band Tool "Prison Sex." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gf1vC8ubnkY . I...
My late husband and I both loved animation from all over the world, and he tolerated some of my other geeky tendencies towards tech geekiness and miscellaneous other Otaku subjects. He had to: as a music geek he had his own kind of obsessions which I...
OK, my Trooper figure just came in via Snailmail...a little bigger than 1/6 scale but not ScaleFail next to my 1/6 horde because TKs are supposed to be big and intimidating. For example, here's what happens when one of the 501st's finest meets a 5' 2...
All your waifu gets is an iBook G4??? Baka baka! You go down to the Apple Store *this instant* and get her a 13.1" MacBook Pro and give it to her "just because," Mr. Man! (Gives tsundere look of DOOM.)
This will probably eventually make it out to either the Torrance/Gardena area or to Little Tokyo. But you can bet they won't do the dry ice number here. Heck, BASKIN FRAKKIN ROBBINS and CARVEL won't even send you home with dry ice with an ice cream c...
I have a big duffel, I keep Yumiko's wigs in one end pocket, her props in the other end pocket, and her clothes in a side pocket. I have a towel in the bottom to provide extra cushioning and wrap her in a baby blankie to protect her. I usually take o...
Obon time here in LA means Nisei Week, which is more like "Nisei Month" at this point. http://www.niseiweek.org/home.html And we're all screwed up here on other things too...Little Tokyo will also have Tanabata decorations up. Never mind Tanabata was...
OK, I survived Reseda/Northridge in 1994 and Sylmar in 1971 as a very chibi-chibi chibi. Northridge felt like "OMG we're all going to die." My memories of Sylmar are sketchy to say the least...I primarily remember being whisked out of my bed and my m...
Sweet. I love the series, and have since I discovered it on the Web around 2001. Fred was the true talent between the two of them. Rodney was basically a storyman and Fred knows how to tell a good story too. It's not as gonzo but I like it nonetheles...
That's not the Moe face. That's not even the O face. That's the "Danny mocking the rest of the world because he's in Japan having fun and making bucks and we're not" face.
This sounds like an idea that went into the past and came out...as a Saturday Night Live sketch. And now...SAMURAI MAIDO KAFE!!! ...the first shot you see is John Belushi in a maid costume, topknot, and of course, his trusty swords. This link will pr...
I don't know what planet all you are from, but Figma + Cloth = AWESOME WIN. This brings Figma into my realm: the dollfie zone. I not only have my Yumi-tan (see avatar) but I also have lots and lots of happy shiny 1/6 scale dolls as well...Volks Dollf...
I think you have to use a proxy service to buy directly from Volks Nippon, but this is likely to be available through Volks US soon. They seem to be getting a small amount of limited stuff from Japan. Still want my DD boy...grumble grumble.
I like, but heresy of heresies I'd prolly back down on the oppai and go with an M chest. The head is nice. Maybe Volks will release a blank version of the head. I've always liked most Volks faceups though, but I'd love to see what my friend Biff woul...
Miko costumes can be hazardous to Dollfie Dreams...my Yumi-tan has some remnant red (now pink-y) stains on her hands from the red hakama that came with a Miko fullset my boyfriend (original keeper of the doll) bought for her. Luckily they are down to...
You can fix it with an archive and install. That is, if there's room on the HD for it. Don't wait until Snow Leopard...it's not worth the hassle. Macs are supposed to "just work." Mine does, thank Goddess, and has since I got it in November of '06. O...
Actually you can SEE the difference between Relakkuma and Pedobear here. Here he is getting molested by a Japanese macaque. http://shibuya246.com/2009/06/02/rilakkuma-at-the-zoo/
Come on, folks...your dirty minds! Dirty! Dirty! Relakkuma != Pedobear. Too cute to be Pedobear and besides, he promotes people having a relaxed attitude. You can't relax when Pedobear is around. I gave a Relakkuma to the guy who runs Anime Los Angel...
Another observation: shouldn't your Aoi girl have the red sabre and your Saber girl the blue one? I mean, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering, and suffering leads to the dark side...Aoi always looks like she's about to blow her stack. Wouldn...
Yes, we need the chopsabres that say B.M.F. on 'em. Give Mace his props, Kotobuki! Actually...speaking of props, this will mean that my DD can cosplay my Rebel Legion character. And actually look GOOD in the outfit. The only thing that can improve th...
Oh yeah, one other thing. The slightly raised eyebrow is nice. Don't change it. "Honor thy mistake as a hidden intention." -- Brian Eno, Oblique Strategies.
How true, how true. And new wigs. And new eyes. And props. And furniture. It really is like having a daughter, you know. At least I won't have to pay for a wedding. Or baby shower. Or college for her kids.
I don't think she looks melancholy, I think she looks like she's lost in thought, or maybe daydreaming. As you can see, I has a Yukino-type. In the case of my Yumiko-tan, I think that she's thinking about how she would compose what she's looking at i...
J-foods I don't like? UMEBOSHI. Ugh. Never got a taste for it. I know umeboshi is supposed to be really good for you but I don't like it. I also don't like most octopus or squid dishes. Ditching the Dark Lord: such a nice Vader suit...very well done...
I know I'm late, but my icon bears the image of my beloved little Yumi-tan. She's a Yukino-type Dollfie Dream, bought by my boyfriend in Torrance a couple of years ago. She still technically belongs to my boyfriend but I think she's grown attached to...
That's already how Dollfie Dreams and Obitsu are constructed. They have an internal plastic architecture that works as an armature. My Dollfie Dream can and does stand up for herself. Without a stand.
My Twitter account is sort of but not quite the same as my DC.com account. Hopefully people will associate one with the other if I decide to go along with your evil plans. Have you thought of doing a site specifically for Dollfie-related stuffs? Bec...
