By this time of year, the office is flooded with samples. Anime merchandise of all shapes n sizes. For anime licenses, the license holder typically gets 5% royalty of the unit price. I heard yesterday that the most expensive license in the world is the Star Wars license at 18% @.@
One of the trends I'm noticing with my clients is that they are coming out with their own original characters which gives them freedom to make what they want. Take Max Factory for example coming out with their own eroge Sekirara.
Anime Merchandise
Apparel for humans and dolls, figures and mechas.
K-ON! Yui-chan wind breaker. Up until now I used to use my white Microsoft one but these black ones by Cospa better suit the rest of my wardrobe ^^
Front of the wind breaker. All these cospa goodies from HLJ.
The back of the Mio wind breaker is gorgeous.
This ones a hoodie.
And we got Yui on the back of this one.
Kobato by Kotobukiya. Never got round to watching this. Main character looks really cute. Worth watching?
Scarlet Witch by Kotobukiya.
VF-25F Alto Valkyrie. Currently available from HobbyLink Japan.
More goodies from Cospa.
A very ecchi dakimakura by Urotan by Hobby Stock.
This was lying around the table too which I thought I'd throw in for good measure. Tis a turtleneck from Uniqlo - cost about 900 yen. Love the current Uniqlo ads running on TV now. Uniqlo stores available in your neck of the woods too?
Not sure what version this is of the VF-25F. Its gray instead of white. Prefer the white version I think. probably give this a lick of top coat later to get rid of the sheen.
A load of stuff including boots for the girls - all from HobbyLink Japan's Doll category.
K-ON! tissue box cover - available from HLJ. Great for folks who waht to spice up their health care time.
Will post photos of the new batch of samples next week. Anything from this week tickle your fancy?
