Alright kids, are you ready for the next part of our ADVENTURE? Put on your nostalgia goggles and prepare for one heck of a blast to the past. No, seriously. I don’t know if you’re ready for this.
But if you are, hit the jump for more.

August Goodies!
August 18, 2011 at 8:37 pm (Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Shining Hearts)
Another month, another haul. What did I get in the mail this time? CHECK IT OUT!
The lovely 1/7 scale Xiao Mei (Xiaomei? Xiao-Mei?) from Shining Hearts. She’s the first Max Factory PVC I’ve gotten in AGES. Aside from a little flub here and there she’s absolutely fantastic. Bigger than expected too!
But this is what I was REALLY excited about:
Cube’s Kyuubey plush. He’s a lot smaller than expected but very cute and cuddly. He’s also stuffed with beans so he’ll make for a good hacky sack (not that I’d ever kick him, I LOVE HIM). This plush was wildly popular and sold out during the pre-order phase. He might be a bit tough to find now but he’s totally worth it!

An Artful Post: CHEERFUL JAPAN!

Have you heard about GoodSmile’s Cheerful Japan contest? If not, here’s the gist of it: Design a “cheerful” themed Hatsune Miku and submit it via Pixiv. The winning design will be made into both a 1/8 scale PVC and a Nendoroid petite.1000 yen of each Cheerful Japan sale goes into the donation fund.
Not only is this an awesome way to get your own figure, you’ll also raise a crapload of money for those still suffering from the 2011 disaster if you win! SO ALL YOU ARTISTS OUT THERE: GET DRAWING!
Here’s my submission to the contest, by the way (click the thumbnail to see the full sized image) :
