Haha, So it was CNN Danny. Quite the accomplishment. I knew about your Dad being Jimmy Choo for quite some time now, just never really thought much about it. After all I'm not really into Women's shoes. ^^; Congrats on the success you made so far, and here's hoping to more continued success. I know you said you had a bit of a rough time growing up, but it seems that luck has been going good for you and your family! I look forward to watching Dannychoo.com grow with you! Heres to many more Panchira shots in the future! Cheers!
Yay more Panchiro shots!
I propose bandaid be given his own corner "bandaid's panchira corner" :D
Congratulations again Danny, thought your first CNN appearance was big, but this one takes the cake. ^^ always thought it was great how you remained self effacing even amidst all your achievements. hope Mirai inc get more business from the CNN article. ^^ With regards to the question I think I’ve been around since 2005. The PG Strike Gundam days, hard to check via comments since I started out as a lurker. Lol Btw I like the tie on the stormtrooper armour, have you tried wearing that during formal events? ^^
What can I say D? You're the king... of geeks, LoL (CNN's words, not mine). From one lone voice across the sea it may not mean much, but I'm proud of ya buddy. Hope this extra exposure brings even more opportunities your way. Good to see daddy choo is happy for his son. Our boy is all grown up... *punches Danny in the arm* OK, enough of that, get back to work! Hail to the king, baby! - Ash (Army of Darkness)
Danny has a son! @.@ just teasing FatB. ^^
Yeah, didn't you know? Name's Diddy Choo
lol!
Way to go Danny!! XD
I love how you're always beaming happily in most of your pictures ^O^ Very proud of your achievements so far and thank you for being our inspiration and role model :)
sort of like an inverted stormtrooper mouth vent eh? ^^
Whoa... dude! CNN?! That's totally awesome! And thus now it's official rather than the cameo during the iPhone release eh? (Sorry I'm Canadian and put this in my grammar) That's really cool. Plus didn't know your father was a shoe designer too. That's really awesome!
Banzai!! :D
Mr. Choo! You give away too many secrets to your success!!!
Respect Danny, massive respect for what you've done.
Congrats Danny!! CNN huh? that's a really big accomplishment right there. Wonder what next show will Danny be in? For the question, been a steady reader ever since late 2006.
okay...so your dad is THE Jimmy Choo! Congrats, man! He made our country proud, and now you have made your name as well! You have fulfilled your wish and you're happy about it! How I wish I want to be as successful as you. I'll look up to you as a role model that is successful outside in Japan. Maybe my future kids can write about you! ^^ Good luck on your future success, Danny! Hopefully, I get to meet you in person as well! ^^
As I have always suspected, you're are no normal geek, this CNN feature just confirms it. >_< You are deserving of the monkier the "King of the Geeks". (That's a compliment)
good job Danny....
Congratulations to you Danny! I saw this earlier after watching the "net room" clip on cnn.com, and was like, "Dancing stormtrooper? ...OMG Danny's on CNN again!?" Hope this coverage brings lots of good fortune your way. :D Despite my account's registered date, I started becoming a regular reader around late August 2007. I'm not sure why it took me so long to sign up. ^^; Come to think of it, didn't you mention here that your parents didn't know about your figure hobby?: http://www.dannychoo.com/detail/mac/eng/image/5917/Parents,+Partners+and+your+Figures.html Do they know now after all this coverage? :P
I think my dad only recently knew ^^;
Wow only recently?? You hide it well XD Gratz on the CNN report. And we get to hear your voice too, not just the text behind Mirai :D
I chance upon that video the same way and looking at the photos I realised it might be really strange for CNN viewers to see so many female anime figures; even on the sewing machine. For non-readers of this site might think they belongs to either Danny's daughter or girlfriend(not wife, dun ask me why). I must say, I've never been a fan of those type of figures before too, until now... Danny has made me want to get some Good Smile products too.
another EPIC win for Danny the world still stands in awe because of you
I never put two and two together about your name and your famous father's name...I guess I assumed "Danny Choo" was an alias, since what led me here was videos of you dancing as a stormtrooper. I just figured you went to great lengths to conceal your identity. Congratulations on the CNN piece and the boost of traffic/readership that will bring. I sincerely hope I will someday manage to run into you dancing on the streets of Tokyo. Better yet, take the show on the road and dance in Kansai sometime!
Alright! CNN! Danny's the man~
I've finally found my idol. :)
Heheh. I think I might have too.
Wow. Congratulations on the CNN coverage, Danny. Next stop, BBC, perhaps?
Haha. Yeah, wanted to say that too. Or maybe better.. CNBC, Bloomberg for Mirai Inc. or Time's Top 100!!
and tomorrow, the world!!
level up! congrats!
I've been reading for a while here now. It wasn't only until recently when I decided to register as a User. I miss your gunpla reviews Danny! But nonetheless, cheers to you and more power. GANBARRE!!
I've recently told my friend that I think I'm hanging around DannyChoo.com more often than facebook XD Glad to see more coverage and maybe more people discovering this great site :D
This morning went on cnn.com to watch "Now In The News" as I do almost every morning, and to my surprise, Danny was on CNN again. Way to go, congratulations Danny! Hope you get a traffic boost from this, you deserve it:)
Cool about the CNN coverage. I've been around for about a year (give or take, I forget exactly I started lurking before posting). Now all that's left is to appear on Fox without being edited to look demented.
Wow that is quite awesome Danny. It's getting bigger and bigger for you. And I wish you the best. Keep doing what you're doing!!!
You are seriously my hero dude. I check your site every day for updates and have been a reader for a year despite my join date.
Yeah, I remember reading a few articles about 2 years ago. I remember thinking "this dude needs to do some stretches so he can kick with a straight leg" for one of the videos XD. But only registered a year ago. It's amazing how the site has grown~ I wonder if you ever get tired of being in your dad's shadow from time to time.
Good stuff Danny! It's always nice to see good things happen to good people.
Cool been on the CNN agaaaaain!!!! CONGRATULATIONS. You are the best.
CHEERS DANNY! That's really awesome! Everyone better recognized! For awhile now, I've been proudly telling my non-otaku friends that you've been very positively influential to me in life the past year. They don't understand it and just judge this site on the surface but that's fine... they're missing out! Though I signed up just last October, I've actually been coming to this site for some two years now. Ganbatte Danny! Your site! Your work! Your accomplishments! Your passion! Your soul!... will all pierce the heaven! ^_^b
おめでとう! ^_^ Good to see you getting some more coverage on CNN. Looking forward to the next piece on AoTS. Stay happy, and don't work too hard. ^^
Very nice video, both father and son are popular in their region :) Congratulation on this great achievement and can't wait for the G4TV segment coming soon as well~
Very cool danny! Just curious what made them interested in your site in the first place?
Wow that's some sweet news Danny, nice work. I'll check the video when I get back from classes today ^^
Kudos, Danny.You are now the greatest Stormtrooper EVER. Lord Vader would be proud.
Congratulations, Danny ! It's a really big accomplishment to become the King of... Geeks :P I have a massive respect for you. All hail Danny !
Congratulation once again & for endless times for your proudful accomplishments. This CNN report is the most profiled review of the honorable Danny Choo. I can foresee Danny appear on Time Magazine in the very near future ^_^ For readers that realized Danny's success till date was never rely on his father financial support & had chosen to achieve everything all by himself & within his own strength, this is what makes Danny Choo highly remarkable. It is our utmost pleasure seeing DC.com growth since we arrived to this wonderful community ;-) OMFG, I can't believe I'm dropping tears now, I'm really happy for you Danny.
LOL at Jimmy Choo's comment over Danny: "He's crazy about Star Wars, He love Star Wars. So I don't realize when he get older & bigger he will be dressing up like one of them, hehehehe". Ahh, now I recall how's Dato Jimmy Choo sounds, truly Malaysian chinese, hope to meet your dad again when he's back to Malaysia.
All hail to the King of Geeks!!!!!!!! m(_ _)m
