    I must get that game. And I must get a PS2 again. And I must mod it to play Japanese games. But I don't think I must get that figure. It bears only a passing resemblance to Saber. I was so hoping for a Dark Saber release as well.

    Realistically, she'd be constantly having to pull her sleeves out from curling up around her elbows, and probably cursing the name of whoever put them separate from the rest of her outfit. Stylistically, that looks awfully cool.

    lol-fang! I always liked her, might have to pick her up too. Although I think I'd prefer her in either Baseball uniform or in the school festival outfit.

    Sweet! I was so hoping they'd made Tsuruya and Ryoko Figmas though many people felt they were too minor of characters to get the treatment. I am so ordering these to go with my SOS group.

    Maybe with these two being made into Figmas it'll mean we'll get some more of the Lucky Star girls along with the main four down the line.

    I'm lagging behind on the Figma news. Other people are doing it for me now...

    So, just here to fill in some holes:

    Behold, the "Figma-that-will-finally-break-the-completist-habit-of-every-completist-collector". Well, if you're not living in Japan that is. Perhaps this has more significance over there.

    As for me, though, I couldn't care less about some baseball mascot - a sport I have zero interest in - from Japan - a country I care even less about in terms of the sports world - from 1994 - like I'm even the type to wax nostalgic about sports in the first place.

    Eh, it was bound to happen sometime. I find it interesting that it appears they actually used cotton stuffing to fill out those ears realistically, but that's not enough of a novelty for me to actually want to buy it.

    Now give me my Signum. Or Hayate. Or Subaru. Or Vita.

    Or at least give me a release date for Hatsune Miku. Now there's a mascot character that I know very little about that I wouldn't actually mind shelling out for.

    LOLBBQ! That's the dumbest thing I've ever seen! I can't tell whether it wins or fails! Seriously, though, less with Mr Beartarded, more Miku Hatsune! Dammit, Has-- Max Factory!

    Digging for a bit more info, apparently, his name is "Doala", probably a portmanteau of "Dragon" (the team he represents) and "Koala" (err, duh).
