The Tokyo Figure Show (Good Smile Company x Danny Choo) has kicked off to a great start! The event started yesterday and runs through to 6PM this Sunday in Harajuku.
The original illustrator for Mirai-chan is Azami Yuko who also came along yesterday. We are both still in a state of disbelief that our creation got the figamatization treatment.
Sensei has been busy with work and has not had time to update her burogu but she occasionally uploads to her Pixiv account.
The original April Fools version had the same pose which I'm starting to call the "Mirai Pose" ^^;
Was playing with my Figma Seto Sun who looks the closest to Mirai in terms of hair and clothes - giving her the Mirai Pose ^^;
Hmmm. Maybe the April Fools red version can be a limited run or something ^^; Dont think anybody would want it.
A ton of coverage out now which I'm updating the official site with. if I've missed you then lemme know.

Nagimiso-san's VN02.
Maru Gallery prepared this pop for me but its a wee bit embarrassing ^^;
Which is why I put this together the night before instead - a collection of photos that represent dannychoo.com.
I uploaded the original to Flickr which is 150dpi and can be printed on anything up to A1 - feel free to print and throw darts at it.
Hmmmm. Wondering what it would look like on a t-shirt? (without my name on the bottom)
This could not possibly happened without you - thank you all!
And yes - I thank the trolls too who keep trashing me on their blogs and other boards because whether they like it or not - they are actually helping in promoting my brand which contributes to milestones in life like this. Muhahaha.
It was you the reader who helped me learn that trollage and bad publicity is still free publicity.
If you are the subject of trollage, just remember - the trolls can only do bad for themselves and do good for you. Just think about it - a troll cant be doing too well in life to have the time to trash others. Unless they have not realized that life is short and time is too precious to spend hating others.
With the GSC team - Otsukaresama desu!
Just realized that I forgot to include some pics of me prepping stuff - quickly added to figure.fm.
