I don’t normally show off new acquisitions until I’ve had a chance to review them, this new playset I got from PHAT! and Good Smile Company is so awesome, I just had to show it off. Plus, Yotsuba kinda demanded that I show off her fancy new crib (sshhh, no one tell her I also have the other playset that goes with this one still boxed up in the corner…I don’t want her to get violent again… =^_^;;=).
Oh, and the final reason for today’s pic was that it provided me with a chance to test out the new top light I bought for the light box. I swore I’d never buy a CFL because of the mercury, but I decided to compromise for now due to none of my local retailers selling high wattage daylight quality LED bulbs. Booo! Long live LED bulbs!!!!

I’ll admit it. This week’s installment isn’t that much different from last weeks with the only new addition being the 33% off sale from Right Stuf on all Yen Press titles. Since I only suggest sales from sites I trust, this means the selection can be a bit thin at times. With that in mind, I would greatly appreciate it if you guys and gals out there in internet land would send me sales tips or info about great sites you know of. You can send me a message via my facebook page or direct email. It would be most appreciated. =^_^=
Anyway, on to the sales!
Set to drop in October, this adorable goblin girl is a must have for both Nendoroid fans and folks who hate books alike. Based on the main character from a Japanese light novel series, Bungaku Shoujo, which follows the life of a high school girl/book devouring demon who discovers a new type of delicacy when another student asks her to help him write a love letter. The first novel in the series was originally released in 2006 and has since spawned a manga, a forthcoming animated film and now, an adorable Nendoriod figure.
Preorders are open at all major Japanese retailers and many sites still have slots available. I personally recommend either J-List or Otacute for preordering items from Japan as both sites have provided excellent service to me in the past. Should you turn up empty handed at either of those sites, you may want to try HLJ, Ami-Ami, or Hobby Search.

It’s the weekend and I’m an avid window shopper. I’m so bad about it, I often wonder if should have been born a girl in light of just how much I enjoy the act of shopping (even if it’s only looking at stuff I can’t afford =^_^;;=). Luckily, for folks like me, The Right Stuf is hosting a mega sale on on their already heavily discounted bargin bin items. I LOVE Right Stuf’s bargain bin and I’ve been buying my gifts for folks out it for years. With discounts on products often ranging between 50% to 85% off, it’s quite easy to buy several boxsets worth of DVDs for less than $50. If you’ve got some money to burn and looking to stock up on some older anime and manga, do yourself a favor and check out the links below. =^_^=

You know a series is good when you can’t get around to reading the newest volumes because your too busy re-reading all the awesomeness that was contained in the first few volumes. I know I’m definitely suffering from overload of awesome because I’ve just finished volume three for the second time and all I want to do is go start reading volume one again! Although volume three wasn’t quite the five star outing the last two volumes were, I still enjoyed this latest installment immensely.
