End of 2009 Figurine Blowout Part 2

Posted 12-29-2009 at 03:03 PM by TnAdct1
The second part of my December 2009 pre-orders from HobbyLink Japan arrived in the mail today in the form of two boxes, each one containing a different figurine that I've pre-ordered.

The first of the two figures is of Mio from K-On!



Considering how K-On! is one of my favorite anime titles of 2009, it's no surprise that I've been on the lookout for various pieces of...

End of 2009 Figurine Blowout Part 1

Posted 12-28-2009 at 11:56 PM by TnAdct1
At long last, all the December pre-orders that I had made on HobbyLink Japan are finally shipping. Today, the first of three shipments arrived in the mail today. In this first shipment, I received a figurine on Rei (from Neon Genesis Evangelion) in a dark cherry "racing queen" outfit.



Yeah, I'm not really a big fan of Evangelion (you can easily blame that on a certain invertebrate...

More Overseas Goodness

Posted 12-22-2009 at 07:15 PM by TnAdct1

A Preview of What I'm Expecting in the Next Month

Today, the second in a series of figurine orders that I made on Hobbylink Japan came in the mail today. This time around, the figure is part of Wave's "Beach Queens" series of figurines.

For those who aren't aware of this, the "Beach Queen" series is a series of figurines by Wave that depicts female characters from various anime titles in their swimwear. When it comes to this series, I've ordered three of these figurines (all from different anime titles, BTW)....

A Pre-Anime USA Figurine Purchase

Posted 11-04-2009 at 07:24 PM by TnAdct1
I know that Anime USA is a couple of weeks away, and I'm trying to save up money for the convention and the subsequent Black Friday sales (please, no more Buy 2, Get 1 Free video game sales). However, I did manage to make one more anime-related purchase before the convention (and before a number of figurines that I pre-ordered from HLJ come out).

On Halloween night, just for fun, I was browsing eBay for various anime figurine auctions. During this time, I noticed that some people...
