So I'm going to help people fix them. Thanks to the help of TEH JERK, I am selling replacement parts for toys over at The Veef Shop

Spend it with the one you will remember love with.

Trains really are the way to travel. I'm writing this from the Amtrak Acela express somewhere in Connecticut. After years of driving to Toy Fair we've decided to switch to train and couldn't be happier. I wish I lived in an area with more train service as I would take it everywhere. It's one of the many reasons why I love Japan - the trains run everywhere.

Getting to the station was an adventure. I thought I left myself time by getting up at 4:30 in the morning, but after all was said and done I didn't get on the highway until six. The train station is about an hour from my house and my train was due to leave in 55 minutes.

There's this weird game tucked into the bottom right corner of the imports page.

It's like Virtua Fighter AND Cyber Sled?

OH BOY!

Origins of the VF-25

Written by Andrew (VF5SS)

On the eve of Macross’s twenty-fifth anniversary, there was much trepidation as to how the series would progress in terms of Valkyrie designs after the side-story, Macross Zero. The titular VF-0 was essentially another take on the classic VF-1 design so there did not appear to be much progress. The VF-0’s antagonist, the more visually striking Sv-51, garnered a fair bit of interest on its own and is features some unconventional touches that seemed to usher in Macross’s move to using computer generated imagery to render robots and other vehicles. Despite many prominent scenes in Zero utilizing hand drawn robots, the talk of the community was how CG had allowed for more complexity in Valkyrie designs.

...and don't be shy. Which one of you missed this particular Super Bowl XXXXVI commercial?

Oh, and also this one:

Put on your red shoes and dance the blues~

This is what I do when the Bruins are disappointing me.

Not bad for a first try, wouldn't you say?

I like this one because it is adorable.
