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! :P

That'll make a statement in you living room! :D

Is there an Ultraman episode on youtube with M1go big lips, alien zarab (could only find a 38 sec clip), and Twintail? Inquiring eyes wanna know! :D

In for an Ultraseven and Pigumon mug and a couple Washi tape rolls.

Oh very cool!!! :shock: :D :shock: :D
THANK YOU Deevis! :P 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! :lol: )

Makes me want to pull out my buta figures and play with them all (except I'm at work right now! :x ) . Many thankies DEEVIS! :D

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.

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. :P

This is Skullbrain though. If you are reading the site while operating in any kind of rested state, I might have to argue you are doing it wrong. :P

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! :D
Hey! What happened to all the pics and youtube embeds? Mozilla is showing a lot of blanks today for some reason :x

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!

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. :)
