There will be some planned downtime starting Wednesday, June 15th at 9am EDT. The board will be closed for approximately 12 to 24 hours while we work on migrating to a new forum software. For more information on the move, check out the Board Change Announcements thread.
I am completely down, I will take some of all of them. How to pick which though, now that is is conundrum. I'd have to go for one of every plate I think. Best thing is the tote bag, because then I don't have to decide; I can have all the characters!
Oh very cool!!! THANK YOU Deevis! Those are really fun videos. I like the Alien Zarab the best, but instead of being a baddie, he looks like a creature who would be content with seed cake and suet (he looks like some weird distorted bipedal bird! )
Makes me want to pull out my buta figures and play with them all (except I'm at work right now! ) . Many thankies DEEVIS!
Well, it's not like either series has ever really went away, which that article makes absolutely no mention of. Whatsoever. While new iterations of the shows are interesting and quirky to consider, I just really don't think they have ever matched (for me) the earlier versions. Also, since this is seemingly made for the Japanese market, I am kind of surprised at even the attempt of portraying these as cult type shows. But anyways, more kaiju inspired content, so I won't complain.

Re: Ultraman thread
I don't disagree with anything you had to say up there, Steve, but I'm pretty sure that you need a nap. Grab a pillow and a favorite paperback; meet us back here in a few hours.

Oh man they have fucking cereal bowls as well? Imagine pounding the most addictive sugar laden cereal you can eat in one of those? Hell I want a mug and a bowl!
Looks like dear Keronia is giving Ultra a chiropractic adjustment there! Hey! What happened to all the pics and youtube embeds? Mozilla is showing a lot of blanks today for some reason
Just say no to the undies. I would love to have a Booska plate though (and Vombie needs at least one to complete his collection). The stickie pads are nice too!

Re: Ultraman thread
That's fantastic Scott! Great purchase. So maybe you can answer a few questions on them. How does the quality from you judgement, e.g. are they something that would hold up to regular use? I wasn't sure if this was a really good print, or just a label/coating that had been incorporated into the surface. I do love melamine ware, so I could easily see myself wanting to use them, but then, they look so lovely I can see holding on to them for display too. Heck, maybe a set for each! (if, of course, money and storage wasn't an issue). Anyhow, great stuff man, you are like me, impossible to pick a favourite among them.
