Haul pics - 27 January 2007

Brought back a small haul from this weekend's trip to Akihabara and Nakano. Got the Vignette-chan set for a client and the AVP figure for my own collection. Kotobukiya Shop is having a big sale from 25th-28th January on nearly all their items with 20-70% discount! The AVP figure is still slightly more than what I'd usually pay for a McFarlane figure but it was on sale and I couldn't resist!

Haul pics - 20 January 2007

Bought a bootleg Death Note replica note book (retail price: 1,890 yen) from Kotobukiya Shop for myself today while in Akihabara. It's not an exact replica though. It's a B5 size note book with about 160 pages for you to write your foes' names on. The note book has 10 pages of instructions on how to use the Death Note written both in English and Chinese. Some of the pages already had some names of characters from the Death Note anime/manga written along with Chinese text on how they die.

Right after I got back from Akihabara, I got a package from Media Works and in it is the Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh October 2006 issue mail order exclusive Shana-san Deredere version ordered for a client.
