I'm looking at getting the Street Fighter animated movies on DVD, does anyone know if those are any good? I've only seen one of them, but I liked it, but apparently another company made the other two movies.

Also, I'm getting my nieces Doraemon and Anpanman on DVD for their birthday (they're twins), if I can find the two series.

Sadly looks like ill have to take 2nd GIG vol 3 back, disc 1 has a weird dimple in it thats causing skips.

I got some nice Big O figures in the mail recently.

The first set of the Kotobukiya mini-figures (I especially like the Dorothy 1 and Big O figures).

Also one of the official Bandai sets, featuring Big O, Roger and Dorothy. The Roger and Dorothy figures came with a stand (you know the cheap-ass kind with the tiny pegs on the top) but it's practically useless. The two figures are doing everything in their power to stand crooked or not at all.
I eventually ended up super gluing similar figures to their stands to solve this problem, guess I'll have to do the same for these.

That's why I usually only buy mini-figurines and statuettes. No hassle, no grief, just an eternal rockin' pose and a place on my dusty mantle.

Uh, I also bought a book called 500 Manga Heroes & Villains...I'm not sure why. It was kind of cool though, Roger Smith got his own article listed right between Luke Skywalker and Spike Spiegel in the Male Heroes section.

*raises eyebrow* If it has Roger and Spike in it... How much is it and where do I get it?

Today I picked the X Movie ( ...totally awesome...) and Life v. 1.

Loveless Vol 1 --> Cute, creepy and cool.
Saiyuki Vol 9 --> B****ING!
TOkyo Babylon Vol 7 --> Disturbingly beautiful.

Paranoia Agent vol 4 came in the post (yesterday), and i picked up Pita-Ten vol 6 and Flames of Recca vol 2 while i was in Ottakars (yesterday).

Im just about to place a largish manga order, but today some Artbooks came from Japan, including the very nice "Flamboynat" by Hakua Ugetsu (guy who created Burst Angel) - it has some pics from that, as well as others that are like the "beta" versions of the BA characters.

Heres a pic:

While i was at the London Expo i got Cromartie High School vol 2, Get Backers vol 7 and Planetes vol 6 (anime) and DearS vol 4 and Gundam Lost War Chronicles vol 1 (manga)

Plus in the post came Tenjho Tenge vol 1 and Princess Tutu vol 5.

Phew.
