It is getting really ugly out in the market, so I wish every unemployed members here the best in getting a job, any job. At the sector I'm in, it's like a bloodbath (Lehman, Merrill, AIG, WaMu, etc). Everyone have to hold tight and see how this ho...
I'd never put anything that let everyone and their mothers know that I'm a fan. My obsession is defined by throwing all of my quarterly bonus on figures.
I am leery of Movic. Nowaday I stick with Alter, GSC and Griffon. Got stiffed in the past - bought a CMS Nanoha Signum for $90. That #@% thing can't stand straight. Since Alter is going to release a much better posed Signum, I've kicking myself e...
I'm sorry to say, but someone with $25K a year has no business getting married, even if the other partner can make another $25K. I make multiple fold of that amount, and I still dont dare to get married. That's life, just deal with it. $25K in Ja...
Will preorder Unity yuno and Sister Hell for sure Going to give a thought about Saber - 12,000 yen sounds steep. Going too depend how much bonus I am getting for 3Q 2008. Gave a thought about the FREEing haruhi bunny girls. But gave up because I...
Geeze Christ, its people like him that give figure collectors bad names. I have all my figures clothed and armed (I collect mostly figures with sword/gun).
Ha, I might have to set aside another USD $1,000 for additional pre-order for the rest of this year. Certainly I have to cancel some of my preexisting pre-order to make room.
My mom keep telling me that I am wasting money on my figure collection, and my family in general considers me not fully "grown up." I gave up explainig to them that I am not a typical otaku type (engineer/graphic artist). I have two graduate degree...
does the price of petrolum has anything to do with the high price of PVC figure? Generally, it used to be around 4,800 yen in 2004, then 6,800 yen in 2006, and now almost 9,000 yen for an Alter/GSC level pvc figure.
Can someone please explain to me why she is virtually being treated like the second coming of Jesus among the otakus? Sure she is quite a looker, but the level of adulation to her is beyond belief. I view her as a 2nd rated seiyuu. If she can lev...
Still, spending more than $7k on a shrine visit? That's a lot of money for a day... btw, how do you spend that much money in a shrine? Donation, or buy everything you see in booths?
Let's see... I started to collect PVC in April '08. So far I have 33 figures (ranging from a USD $20 Bome figure to a $175 Alter Exelica). I've spent approximately $1,600 so far, plus $200 on three Detolf glass cabinets. The worse part is that I...
OMFG, they are trying to squeeze otakus off every penny they have. I'd like to get this figma, but there is no way in hell that I'll pay when I dont own a console.
The plotline for R2 defies common sense as the story progresses. How on earth can Lulu practically commands legions of Chinese federation troops while physically in Japan? How come Roro, Venlita (sp?) and Orange join Lulu's banner without qualm?...
