  The 'sausage' on the left is actually a Pretzel...I thought it was a sausage til I looked at it's shape. The plate with a spoon sticking out of a jar has Bratqwurst on it, it's a kind of spicy sauasge and sooooooooo good!

Looked like a great night out.
Forgot what German food tastes like... but it sure looks good.

I'm only guessing what's in store for DC members... and it sounds big like....
either Kotobukiya will have some discounts for DC members for merchanise, or even possibly for one lucky winner... The trip to Japan, Danny has been talking about. (only guessing)

And I can hardly wait for the Video of your presentation.

What is the name of the restaurant where you had german dindins?
The food on the right plate looks like bratwurst and meat loaf. But can't say what the red-pinkish thingy is. Oh and of course mustard in the glass. A Bratwurst is no Bratwurst without mustard.

That announcement sounds cool but I doubt I'm going to be the one to win.

Something that's better than a giveaway that has to do with Kotobukiya... OMG are they hiring someone to receive SAFs and blog about them like you do?! :D

And definitely looking forward to the video. Reading your past articles about them always entice me to get into this sort of business ^^. It looks oh so much fun and enjoyable as a career...
