Yes as far as i know, i was looking at importing the normal coloured Chainsaw Lancer and a M41A Pulse Rifle Replica before and you must posses at least a airsoft gun license to own any realistic coloured gun in the uk. (thats a gun that is anything but less than 50% bright or uncommon colours)

Its a hinderance for people who really like weapon design like myself cause it limits what i can and cant buy. Thats why im looking into other options for video game based weapons.

Nerf repaints, pepakura, build kits, airsoft and pellet conversions ect.

On the way to a client meeting yesterday, I walked into a pawn shop to ask for directions. I spotted this in a $10 bargain bin in perfect condition. It's the English/Korean version which is going for over $180 on eBay:

Is it illegal to import imitation guns that aren't gold?
Click to expand...
Not gold specifically but all replica guns including airsoft guns have to be painted.

According to Section 36 of the VCRA (Violent Crim Reduction Act), which came into effect on 1 October 2007, RIF's (Realistic Imitation Firearms) may not be sold, imported or manufactured. Unrealistic imitation firearms (IF's) must be more than 50% bright red, bright orange, bright yellow, bright blue, bright green, bright pink or bright purple or have dimensions of no more than a height of 38 millimetres and a length of 70 millimetres (as defined in the Home Office regulations for the VCRA).

I presume the gold was deemed an acceptable colour to paint it.

A good day in the mail: Atomic Robo vol. 5, and Top Gear Series 16, Super and Paul on blu-ray, all from Amazon.
Click to expand...

oh so it's finally got released on Blu-ray (it wasn't in any theater in my country for some unknown reasons)

So is Super as good as Kick-ass and Defendor? I like these kind of movies but on the other hand James Gunn movies are crap most of the time, so I am not sure if I should buy it or not.

I did not see Defendor, but I did see Kick-Ass, and while they're both in the "random dude becomes a superhero" genre, Kick-Ass is a bit more wish-fulfillment. Super is dark, messed up, and strangely at the end, very cathartic. I REALLY enjoyed Super quite a bit though, provided you can get around it's rough, ultra violent edges.

I think they aren't from any special collection, I've seen some alike models on ebay. I bought it one~two years ago in a french stock clearance store, They're statues from Japan '95-'98 expo.
Edit: If you want some photos I can make them and upload it, no problem.

The "DS-mode" of the 3DS is still regionfree. There will be no problem with imported DS games.
(P.S.: There are no "hacked DSi" :p)

Is that a Naruga outfit from Monster Hunter? It looks a lot like it but I've never seen a female character wearing it so I can't tell. Looks awesome I want it!

This is fantastic. Where'd you get it?
Click to expand...

Naruga Hunter outfit, correct. :)

Shops like Hobbyfan and E2046 (got mine from there) have it. It is a garage kit though, so assembling and painting required. But you can also buy the prepainted version which is partially assembled (like I did), some minor glueing to do still but that is a 5 minute job. A tad more expensive obviously (~130 euros @ E2046, shipment to EU) but it was worth it in my eyes. Looks stunning.

if I had to buy some Dragon Ball figures now, I would buy the new Dragon Ball Capsule Neo Cell, Kai version. They're on Vol. 2 (so it's easy to get the backlog). It's the new version of Z one with better colours.
If you don't now them, they're figures which represent the most charismatic scenes of Dragon Ball/Z/GT (8 cm, more or less, each one).

Wow! At first glance they look cheap, but the colors on them are magnificent.

What? Slither is a genre classic and Tromeo & Juliet is one of the best Troma films there is. To each his own I guess.

Got this last week, forgot to post. If you don't know the game, it's Earth Defense Force 1 by its European name.

Needed something to play for the rest of summer and something to read after A Dance With Dragons. Already put in 30 hours on New Vegas. Amazing game. Already bought the Honest Hearts and Old World Blues DLC's as well.

Recently picked up an NES + SMB1 for ten dollars at a local goodwill, so thought it'd be fun to start an NES games collection again. Found some common ones at a local gameshop on the cheap. (B2G1 deal made em even cheaper!)

Got Rygar in my Playchoice-10, I really like the sound effects in that game, like the rhythm of sounds when you attack an enemy.

Think I will go pop that back in there...
