That was for the first link posted on the previous page, just seen the YesAsia post. So tempting >_<

I would jump in ... its probably going to be limited.
 
Easy there... If you are in US or Canada, I would get it from YesAsia as you don't have to pay for shipping and the chance of paying for customs is 0%. I got one from NCSX and one from YesAsia. I paid $12 more from NCSX. Go figure. Both have great services so just go for the one that ships first.

You know what? All games should come with some small bonus items like these two Saturn games (The Evangelion one has some cards and a mini audio cd and Wachenroder comes with a small art book and stickers):

Shall I assume someone visited a Mandrake? I picked up a sealed FFVI SF there a few months ago for 200 yen.

No, I got it on an auction site, unfortunately (unfortunately because 1) I didn't travel to Japan and 2) I paid more than that :lol)

Bootaaay said:
Nice pick-up, Wachenroder is just perfect - srpg + steampunk = pure win.

Thanks; I already dusted the old Saturn but haven't tried it yet; I do hope it's as good as I read it is )

Nice! I just started yesterday and I'm looking at a lot of youtube guitar vids for guidance.

I got Mikuru! ^_^

I also picked up a bunch of manga, mainly Sgt Frog.

I got a Skuld figure too, but I didn't open it because I'm a little disappointed with the quality. The copyright text is huge, and way too visible on the figure, and the paintjob isn't great. Are there any good AMG figures out there? And for the love of all that is holy, why are there no Slayers Revolution figures?!

Has anyone actually put batteries in and used their GA-KO clock!?

I put batteries in mine and the battery area got really hot and melted the bottom casing!!!

:(

:( :( :(

Now I'm not sure if it was a bad battery or it might be the product, just be warned and look out for anyone that tries it.

Been trying to find this locally for months. Today, unexpected success!

Went to Toronto for the weekend and had to see:

Yes, it was amazing and inspired me to buy my 4th DVD version of Evil Dead.

:( I hope they're not all like that. I was going to use that as my alarm clock.

Me too if I have any problems... I will post them up. But no doubt will I be giving my impressions soon.

That's the thing. Please let me know guys.

It has a compartment that can hold 3 batteries. 1 AA and 2 AAA.

I'm contemplating contacting Play-Asia about this, but I'd rather hear from other people's experiences first. It might have just been my batteries? ;(

What do you guys think?

More random pickups today...

My daughter saw this at the local store and wanted to get it (she's a big fan of Dragonball Z)...

2747609557_0e385d26a7.jpg


And yes... I did ask her to say, "It's over NINE THOUSAND!"

2747609659_133a20a792.jpg


Crows x Worst figure book. Comes with a Bouya Harumichi figure ^_^ ... and one of my favorite anime movies of all time... Tenchi Muyo in Love (1996). I saw the premiere of this movie way back in 1996. Good times.

Thats freaking cute and funny as hell. :lol :lol
 
What have I done?!

So I taught my cousin how to play Magic using the free decks from Comic Con...

The next day, he buys a couple decks and protector sleeves, and the day after that, a couple counters and an Eventide Starter Box:

And now another day after that, today, a couple more decks:

Haha, yea. Couldn't left him hanging, so half of those are mine.

2749090962_979e8bdd18_o.jpg


Also picked up a couple books from Book Off for myself.

No, hate is bad; redirect that energy and look around ebay: there are usually some around, and not for much money )

New TV, going to be retiring my old 26" Samsung to the bedroom.

I just picked up the 32 incher in that line, and I love the little guy. If I had a camera I'd get a picture of our TV's doing an explosive high five.

I would still contact them anyway and see what their stance is on the matter... what brand of batteries did you use?

Nice Dragonball Z pickup, im amped for that after seeing the DS trailer.

All I got for the Vernal Equinox was this stupid tag
Here's some stuff I got over the past few weeks. Found some smaller trading figures at Nakano Broadway, but they're all boxed up since I moved a week or so ago. Found the American movies and games in Hawaii; first time back in the U.S. in two years!

2748886543_3987991e52.jpg


iPhone from Softbank, white version. Love it, but it lacks some features from my previous phone, no texting to other carriers (you can do mail) sucks, and the camera is crap compared to my THREE YEAR OLD previous phone's 5.0 megapixel camera, but the postives outweigh the negatives.

2749693960_867a634cc3.jpg


Double-dipped on the fighters. I like Soul Calibur 4 a bit better on the 360 and SS better on the Wii. The Wii version is 480p and has some nice flitering; PS2 is 480i only, no filtering. SS Tenka also loads faster than the PS2 version does.

2749693946_4d3fe3a35e.jpg


Some movies I picked up. Been wanting to see Clerks II on DVD for so long; wanted to hear the commentary track! I had no idea Jay And Silent Bob was on Blu-Ray so I snatched that up. Disappointing that it lacks all the bonus features of the DVD version though. And Aika, well...have the original series, figured what the hell.

2749693966_bc47bcb6da.jpg


Arcadia's 100th issue with bonus DVD! Plus some comics. Arcana Heart is drawn by the guy behind Tatakae Tarantula (sp?), which was a fun fighting manga, so it's a good fit.

2749693950_2597e3087a.jpg


Long-overdue Yotsuba To! figures. I never bought Yotsuba because I wanted the Fuuka one with it but could never find it anywhere. It got re-released alongside another version of Yotsuba, but I got the original version instead.

2727191730_53ea86bc0c.jpg


Capcom Maniax R. Mika figure. Found it on Amazon Japan for 3500 yen, not bad!

2749693956_5c4da8641e.jpg


Some Otomedius figures. Missing the blue-haired girl.
