Doing this in bulk can be a drag

Prepare to be shocked (man, that felt incredibly lame), for Nemmy has finally got some new toys in addition to the increasing slew of DVDs he's been getting!

Like before, this'll be a review of the week's purchases in a single post (the main reason for this is cos I got distracted with VNs such as Wind, Muv-Luv and the just released KIRA☆KIRA Curtain Call).


Entry number one is the Outlaw Complete Collection I got from spun_cds_dvds on Monday.

Like I said when I got the Cowboy Bebop movie, this was one of the real highlights on CNX for me.

In actual fact I preferred Outlaw Star over Cowboy Bebop at that time, don't know if that still holds true now though (it has been a long time since I last watched them).


Entry number two arrived on Thursday from Kapow Toys, supermart_usa and all your music.
  • WST Robots Communication Liaison
  • KM-01 Knight Morpher Commander
  • WST Robots Military Operations Commander
  • Lucky Star Complete Collection
  • Lucky Star OVA
Lucky Star I got simply because its Lucky Star, and seeing as it was available for a rather decent price helped in my decision (although the lack of an English dub on the OVA is kinda strange when the series itself had one).

The WST Blaster and Shockwave (it's easier to call them that) are nice toys for their size, but I fear they're a tad too fragile for repeated transforming.

Hell, I almost broke one of Blaster's handle pieces because the damn black bit wouldn't slide over as it should (that piece now has a bloody stress mark on it!).

As for the Knight Morpher Commander (a.k.a. Hearts of Steel Optimus Prime), I'd say its a bloody impressive piece of work.

My only real concern with it however are the arms. Seriously, the sounds I heard from those joints really scared the shit out of me (no toy should ever make a sound like that!).


Entry number three came from HMV.com on Friday.

If this looks familiar, then you'd be correct as this is simply the 2-Disc Collection's Edition of the Evangelion: 1.11 You Are (Not) Alone DVD I received last week.

I didn't even know there was bloody two disc version out there until AFTER I damn well bought the fucking single disc release (I'll be sure not to repeat this mistake again).


Entry number four which I received yesterday from supermartusa was the Kite and Mezzo Forte double-disc set.

This is the uncut release, so you probably know what that entails. If not, you might actually be better off not knowing...

I never thought this haul would arrive today!

I got myself quite the unexpected haul from Fan2Fan today.

The reason it was unexpected is because I didn't even know that Ryan had sent it until the Parcelfarce guy arrived with them.

More importantly though, here are all the wonderful toys that were in those parcels.


These were the Revoltech, figma and S.I.C. items I received.
  • Revoltech Fraulein Haruka Hasegawa
  • Revoltech Fraulein Miki Hoshii Noel Angelic Ver.
  • S.I.C. Masked Rider Shadow Moon & Black
  • figma Miyuki Takara Winter Uniform ver.
  • figma Sun Seto
  • figma Sakura Hime JPWA Tag Tournament ver.


These were the Nendoroid and freebie items I received.
  • Nendoroid Miku Hatsune
  • Nendoroid Rin Kagamine
  • Nendoroid Len Kagamine
  • Nendoroid Shana Epatsu-Shakugan Ver.
  • Nendoroid Saber Lion
  • Some gashapon-esque Masked Rider Zanki figure


This was (by far) the largest item I received.
  • Alter 1/7 Hayate Yagami


And finally, these were the anime figure items I received.
  • Good Smile Company 1/7 Shiki Ryougi Garannodou
  • Alpha x Omega 1/8 Kallen Kouzuki Bunny Girl Ver.
  • Wave 1/8 Yoko Space-Look Ver.
  • Alter 1/8 Asa Shigure
  • Resinya 1/6 Kudryavka Noumi Wafu pose ver.
  • Kotobukiya 1/8 Kyou Fujibayashi
Personally, I think the biggest shocker inside this haul for me was the Hayate figure cos the box for her was so fucking huge she needed her own damn photo!

The Miku cosplay of Kagami Hiiragi has a figma!

The WonderFest exclusive cosplay figma of Konata Izumi will have her first partner in crime as Max Factory are releasing Kagami Hiiragi in her Miku Hatsune cosplay from the Lucky Star OVA.


It wasn't an unexpected move as they've already released Miku Hatsune in the figma range. And then there's that Nendoroid version of the popular cosplay GSC are making as well.

All I'd like to see now is a figma of Kagami in her Rin Tohsaka cosplay in the near future cos it too appeared in the OVA very briefly.
