Some good stuff for Christmas!

Gameboy DS w/h carrier set and Mario 64 DS: I am so glad this game was rereleased! Mario 64 has to be my favorite Mario game, aside from the original and 2 (Doki Doki Panice edit)

Re: Cutie Honey volume 2-3: First Pressing, of course. I got a Panther Claw Mask (which I wore to the Christmas party, and everyone loved), and a Kisaragi Honey keychain as the first press extras. I was watching them all Christmas morning.

Cutie Honey Movie Limited Edition: Wow, I couldn't believe how friggin awesome this DVD release was. It was with so many extras. Two figures (Cutie Honey, and Honey in underwear ready to transform), a book with storyboards, a manga, etc., extras on the DVD were Black Claw music video, and about 15 trailers. There was two discs, the movie with some extras, and the 'Making of Cutie Honey' DVD that was released while CH was in theaters. On the 'MOCH' DVD, aside from the behind the scenes footage, are some extras. Textless, 'zoomed' ending, animated storyboard for a prototype opening (subtitled in engrish!), and costume designs. This had to be my best present.

Well, I checked the can and it's a brand by a small local grocery store here in Memphis, Tennessee only. I'm afraid it isn't sold nationwide.
