Any impressions?

It's a pretty good book, if you like mech designs. I never knew he did so much Gundam work. I was most interested in the Xenogears and Xenosaga art. There are a few new pieces of Xenogears art and quite a bit new Xenosaga art that I haven't seen anywhere before.
Decent amount of Wing stuff? Or just Gundam in general? I saw the book at Sakura-Con and almost bought it just because how rare it is to see Wing Gundam actually be used these days.
Overall, there's quite a bit of Gundam in it. There's only about a page of Wing though. I was a bit disappointed with that. I thought there'd be more, since the Wing Gundam is on the cover.
Yeah, I that kills any desire to pick it up. Given Wing is front and center of that cover, only to have a one page seems really weak.

Yeah, I'm in the US.
I don't know anything about knockoffs and stuff, the Play Arts Kai Gray Fox is actually the first I've bought since the MacFarlane ones in '99, lol. All I know is that the Play Arts Kai stuff looks great, is on Amazon/Big Bad Toy Store, and I'm buying 'em.
I picked it up for just shy of 4000 yen from a second hand store close to where I live. That's at least 2000 yen cheaper than every other second hand store I've seen in my area. Haven't seen a new copy for any cheaper than 7000 yen unless I buy from Amazon.co.jp who have it for 6000 new at the moment.

Few things from the last couple of days:
Brand new copy of Fellowship of the Ring for a re-read.
Never seen this edition before, has some interesting cover.
I booked a trip for June!
Well, we'll be mostly in and around Ao Nang, Phuket and all the islands. Kayaking, scooter and boat travel, surfing, jungle expeditions, diving and the other tourist stuff. Will be nice to get away and relax. I'm mostly looking forward to the street food
(EDIT) Will do brooklyniteOne, if we're nearby, thanks for the tip!

Even though I didn't find anything there on Monday, I decided to hit up Goodwill again on my way home yesterday (Tuesday) and I'm glad I did!
It looked like someone traded in their entire SEGA Genesis collection as there were 2 systems (Model 1 & Model 2) and a boat-load of games in the display case.
Almost all of the games were cart-only which sucks, but I picked out a few gems:
-Phantasy Star IV
-PS2 Memory Card (cheap!)
-TMNT: Hyperstone Heist
-Lightening Force
The only other games of interest were Shinobi III (which I'd prefer to have CIB, as I have the other Shinobi games CIB) and Mutant League Football (which I already have).
I've always wanted TMNT and Lightening Force and I might flip PSIV to recoup what I spent. I wish they had the boxes/manuals!

My own April addition. Hot Toys 1989 Deluxe Joker 12inch Figure. The thing comes with a myriad of accessories but I chose a fairly simple pose. The base stand lights up, too!
High class pick-ups, homey. I approve.I got a bunch of stuff from japan today!

Not gaming related. I fucking love it though. Pics don't do it justice. Camera phone and I'm just a terrible photographer.

Yup. Got them all off with no damage whatsoever (PSIV's label was already a bit janky though).
I've had years of practice carefully removing labels from action figures, games, DVDs, etc. so I've gotten pretty good at it, haha.

I'd love that one too but it seems Series 3 is hard to find online.

That was a really disappointing movie. Especially the second half.

Yeah, it got all Twin Peaks-y but I'm strangely fond of it. I saw it in theaters, bought the JP version and now the NA version. If anything though, it's better than CoS - mostly due to it not dealing with alternate universes.

Also got a Hot Toys Joker. So sex.

Gamestop copy came in perfect condition. Artbook is a little lower quality than the skyrim one. Wished the slipcover came with this version as well. Happy I bought it though since it became pretty rare. One of the most expensive games I've bought in a while.
Some other collector's editions I've bought in the past but just now posting. Bought Batman AC for $35 during best buy sale. Bought Starcraft 2 for $50 at best buy. And bought Alan Wake for $20 at Wal Mart.
I gotta get this. I heard the animations were top notch in the movie

I really loved the animation in the movie, despite the plot being thin and under-use of characters. Fights were fluid and one of my favorite parts reminded me of grinding in JSR/JSRF.
