Anime Shops
Took these photos a few days ago and since then another huge batch of samples arrived - looks like sample levels are increasing as the business grows ^^;
Kotobukiya Asuka - some of you have won this as your room was in the Otacool book - will announce during next week.
Yukino Sakurai from Candy Boy. Saw bits of it but didn't get round to watching all of the yuri action. How was it?
Huge Tsukasa and Fate.
More books from J-List.
Bayonetta - a truly awesome game. Love the in game music and the amount of combo moves and weapons make it a joy to play. The only downer is that there is no install option meaning that you get "Loading..." a lot which can get annoying but you get to practice those combos while bits of it load.
The ones from Amazon came with a pre-order exclusive CD which contains some soundtracks from the game.
Folks in Japan can get their copy from Amazon but it looks like it went up 2,000 yen since I got it - its currently 8,400 yen.
A load of figma's and nendoroids in this batch - and then some more came over the weekend ^^;
1/48 W.H.A.M.! ARL-99 Assault Airborne Labor - available from HLJ for 14,800 yen. Tis a light model and feels like a freshly built kit.
Backpack and thrusters attach to the body with magnets. Joints are not made of cloth which one would probably expect for the price tag.
Still a lovely mecha though.
Love the design of this mecha especially the flaps on the legs. Feel like sitting down to watch some retro Patlabor now.
Idolmaster Keyrings from Good Smile.
This time round J-List stock "Japanese Sword Girls" - an illustration book full of moesome girls wielding mostly samurai swords.
Going to have a look at some of my faves from the book.
Love this outfit.
Nice shitapai and pantsu.
Looks like Saber Alter.
The illustration book is currently available from J-List for 34 USD.
The book also talks in depth about the blades for each type of samurai sword - they may look all the same but are very different.
J-List also sent a rather nice Kaguya-hime illustration book too.
Includes some pai for dessert. Available from J-List for 28.50 USD.
Anything from this batch tickle your fancy?
