January new items
TheCapt1701 | February 29, 2008Nothing like coming in under the wire with this. Just think if I didn’t have the extra day! Anyhow, I’ve posted up all the new items for January. Here is a quick group shot of the various R2 DVDs that arrived.
Since I had several sets and LE boxes this month I decided to do some detailed shots for each of the more notable ones. First up we have the Blu-ray (Japanese version, the US version is set for April) box for Yukikaze. I will one day finish watching this series, but probably only after having bought a few more versions of it. Next up we have the original Gundam movie trilogy set. This is cool since it comes with the original audio and English subtitles. They did a great job on this set as each disc comes with it’s own booklet in addition to the poster booklet and the general booklet. And it comes in a cool box. Moving on, we have Claymore LE Box 4, which comes with two DVDs plus bonus item. Unless Funimation does something truly great with their release for this series on the singles, I may just stick with the R2s for now.  Then we get to You’re Under Arrest: Full Throttle (aka Season 3) Volume 1 with box for the first four volumes. I love YUA; it’s like the Simpsons of anime…. decades pass but no one ever ages. Finishing up the DVDs we have Shana II Volume 1 LE. This set came with some really neat items and the First Press came with both the mini poster in the box and a larger poster as well.
Not to forget print, here is a group shot showing both the February and March issues of Megami. I also picked up a Divergance Eve art book. It really is a good show if you can get beyond the ginormous breasts.
Ending things up for this round, here is a quick shot of one of the last figures I had on order. This one is Max Factory’s Shiranui Mai from King of Fighters. You can read the HD review here. With this one in hand, I only have two figures left on order (both Ikki Tousen no less – what a shock!).

Enjoy!!
