Pokemon: Re-Ment Tsunagete Kawaii Pokemon no Kaidan ~ Ameagari no Machi~

In which I’m just smitten with this Re-Ment set, just thoroughly in love with this twenty buck steal! For a long time, I didn’t buy Pokemon-related Re-ment. Why was that? Frankly, it’s because Re-ment licensed sets have been worse quality than their non-licensed ones. I’ve based that on “cute character” licenses like Sumikko Gurashi and […]

The Get List Gaiden: Pokemon Tea Party Pikachu Figure ~Pikachu Sweets Collection~

In which I spend way too much in order to, uh, not spend so much. Or something. It made sense back then. I mentioned Banpresto’s Pokemon for Grownups Too in a recent entry, and today’s figure comes from another subset of that line, called Pokemon Tea Party. It consists of lots of plush and a […]

Sumikko Gurashi: Re-ment Doki Waku Kenkou Shindan

In which I’m not so impressed by the facilities, but you can’t beat the staff. I always hate admitting it, because I’m 4.51 million years old for starters, but I’m afraid of going to the doctor’s office. I have my reasons, none of which are super pleasant, but I get so nervous about visits I […]

Cute Character Goods: Yell Ojigi Set Three

In which I take a low-cost chance and it pays off in cuteness — and a mole! I love moles. I always have, ever since someone tried to get them off my parents’ property using soap and water flushed down their tunnels when I was a kid, and out of that tunnel flew a mole […]

Anime Goods: Re:Zero: Q Posket Figures Rem & Ram

In which I just end up a bit creeped out despite my high hopes. My experiences with Q Posket figures have been on the negative side. On the one hand, they’re a much cheaper choice for a character figure than, say, Nendoroid, running easily under $10 for recent releases on used good sites like Mandarake […]

Anime Goods: Sewayaki Kitsune no Senko-san Nendoroid

In which I get philosophical and then get my heart just melted. I hate dumb fanservice—like when it’s done at the expense of a character’s dignity or when it’s so clearly the only reason for a series to exist you just want to remind its audience there are straight-out hentai series out there. But I […]

San-x: Re-ment: Rilakkuma Leisurely Japanese Life

In which it’s like getting a brand-new Re-ment set for free, and a pretty nifty one at that. I’m a little embarrassed to admit this, but as I’ve been going through miniatures I’ve run across a couple of things I never even unboxed. Most of these seem to be released/bought right around the time I […]

Anime Goods: Re:Zero: Rem Doll Crystal

In which another darling little Rem joins my collection for an awesome bargain price. Yet another delight from my recent amiami order — this Taito prize figure, Rem Doll Crystal. I got her “used” (brand new figure, slight box damage) for less than ten dollars! I can see from the branding that this is specifically […]

Sumikko Gurashi: Re-Ment Atsumare! Sumikko Youchien

In which the Sumikko and their friends make an awfully cute kindergarten class.

Anime Goods: A Double Dose (But Not Triple) of Doremi, and Why I Hate DHL More Than Usual

In which you come for the cute of Doremi and stay for the horror of DHL.
