I think that picture does a good job explaining it. Lol. Looks fine to me. But to be picky...I guess I should say I don't like huge breasts, I don't even have preference to fitness really. I do prefer "fit" but there's more important things. ( View formatted comment » )

I should have thought to post this news sooner since it was announced a few hours ago. I'm fairly satisfied with everything here. I did, however, notice one thing: She looks like CC from Code Geass. CC = C2 C3 = CV03 She's C3. ( View formatted comment » )

Lol I love this series. But honestly...there's over a hundred of these...are you going to post them one by one every day? ( View formatted comment » )

Lol looks like mine: http://portfolio.cleartranquil.com/sub/phofig1008.html I have all my figmas posed on my shelf and I try and alternate the poses monthly. I tried doing something with my Lucky Star ones yesterday but I think I've got a bit more work to do until I get a pose I'm happy with. My Konata I have in a fixed pose because her arm is broken and her hair falls off easily. I should maybe get a replacement? ( View formatted comment » )

I can confirm it is custom. I saw the Nico video of how it was made. Also, I has that Haruhi figma! It's hard to pose it to be honest because the boots are quite awkward-looking and the hands are a bit strange...but it's good. ( View formatted comment » )

Best part is you can SELECT POWER! What'll it be? Influence people's minds? Time influence? Power to hear thoughts? What'll it be? Lol...j/k...but really that'd be awesome. I would like these contacts but I don't plan on cosplaying a Geass-user. ( View formatted comment » )

I've got that bootleg set pictured above. I knew it'd be fake when I bought it but whatever. I bought it for looking pretty on the shelf because it was only like $30 (as opposed to the real one being $140). They're quite bad though...fall to pieces...just like pictured above.

It really depends actually. In console games I usually play as girls because (especially in third person) it's alot nicer to look at a girl on the screen than some dude. In MMOs it depends on what class I'm making or what I want to role-play. In WoW, I made a female priest but a male Paladin. Makes enough sense to me. In Ragnarok my main account was male but I made a female one so I could use the name of one of my original characters and make a female hunter to role play as. It sounds mean but I like playing with guys who are... ( View formatted comment » )

As a Canadian who is going to Japan (likely bringing back doujins as well) this scares me quite a bit. I recently returned from Japan in April with alot of doujins in my bag and didn't get questioned (thankfully). If it's more strict now I don't know what I'll do. I guess just put them between magazines and other books in my regular luggage and hope they don't get seized. ( View formatted comment » )

I really like Busou Shinki but the prices are too high and I haven't seen one I've wanted in a while. ( View formatted comment » )

I have the fake Haruhi bunny girls. The things fall to pieces if you touch them and it's fairly obvious they're fake. I knew that buying them, however, I call them shelf eye-candy is all. I have a real Haruhi Nendoroid as well to compare with...the fakes really are poor. ( View formatted comment » )

Lol yeah that's what we've got! I pity you folks over in Burnaby mountain. Thank goodness my exams are over because I'm a student at SFU. ( View formatted comment » )

Nice picture! I already ordered 2 Mikus from the first release. I also saw one for $45 CND at the mall here...I was like, "Wtf no way?" It's probably not going to sell because the weeaboos who shop there for their mainstream Nayroodo and Deathneet stuff won't know who she is. ( View formatted comment » )

Used to bathe with my brother when we were little kids...I don't recall ever bathing with either of my parents. The idea of getting into used bath water despite rinsing is still gross. However, I do admit I hardly ever shower. I'm a bath person. I wake up, and I get in the tub. It helps me wake up and soothes a stiff back (I sleep in weird positions). ( View formatted comment » )

I live in White Rock and there's over a foot of snow on my street. This year is ridiculous. Vancouver might actually get a white Christmas this year...! I had to drive to metrotown in this crap to do shopping earlier haha. ( View formatted comment » )

I have it too. I can't understand a darn thing but I'm enjoying the single player vs. COM matches. The music in this game is amazing. I have friends who will have Dissidia as well so I can try out the multiplayer this weekend. ( View formatted comment » )

Like me! http://blog.cleartranquil.com/2008/10/my-room-is-otaku-museum-part-2.html Except this picture is already months old. I managed to cram a bunch of new ones in there (And some Nendoroids). ( View formatted comment » )

Sorry but to answer your question, I don't think I'll be buying figmas as loosely as before (hense why I've held back getting Asakura). The economy has gone bad I end up paying about $45 after shipping and exchange per figma now...that's the same price as if I were to get it at a store locally (where they mark UP prices). ( View formatted comment » )

I have...22 figmas (4 are duplicate) Lucky Star girls (x4) Haruhi-dan (2 nagato, modding one to be Kyonko, do not have Asakura, however) Haruhi PS2 Fate/Stay Saber and Rin (I had 2 Sabers but gave one away) Fate Testarossa Lelouche Lamperouge VOCALOID (2 of each)(Giving away a twin set as a christmas gift, keeping a Miku mint in box) ( View formatted comment » )

In one of my design classes I had to build a hypothetical Vespa showroom on a triangular lot on Granville Island. It was fun. ( View formatted comment » )

Danny's such a pimp. I love it man. I'll be waiting for those videos. ( View formatted comment » )

That's Ueno isn't it? Is that where it happened? We had something kind of similar happen here in Metro-Vancouver area last month. Metrotown is a popular shopping center (especially this season...oh gosh...) with Crystal Mall (the asian mall) right next to it. Anyways, some guys (6) were whipping belts at eachother and they ran through the mall ending when 2 guys were sent to the hospital with stab wounds. It's creepy being there now.

~$83 Canadian. Nice buy actually! ( View formatted comment » )

First Nendoroid I bought was Hatsune Miku and I got her in Akihabara. I also bought a bunch of Haruhi and Lucky Star (1st gen) petits that week. ( View formatted comment » )
