Having a real girlfriend? Priceless.
For some things there's PayPal, for everything else (sex) you need some confidence, a shower, aaand to gtfo of your house.

The fourth option is to have a girl for a best friend who also loves playing video games.

And not just because she plays games. :-P She's one of the sweetest, most loving people I've ever met in my life. May we all be similarly blessed.

Not all of my figs are stuff like this, only some - but the quality and the craftsmanship is what I appreciate, in addition to the aesthetics.
I also have a current girlfriend, have had many, am not a virgin, and am quite older than 15.
A decade older, in fact.
I have an awesome career in the games industry (which is on hold due to the sorry state of the economy, I'm in business right now but it's not the long-term plan), a working car, and a solid sense of distinction between fantasy and reality.
Don't go making blanket statements about groups you don't understand. If you don't like them, don't buy them - but don't jump the shark to judge those of us who do

I personally dont see a point to him refering to go and read up on Rommel.
Though everything else in the interview was highly amusing! And do agree with him wanting to snap the DS in half due to Sandy the Ganguro fairy.

And then go on and talk about how he's interested in WWII and doing something there?
I am now eagerly awaiting for a paradox to come and eat Itagaki.
Also, why is Gillian on one of the photos?

The tank is the Type 90.

For anyone curious about what the top picture is its the Type 92 Mine Clearing Vehicle. It fires a rocket across an area with mines and attached to the wire is explosives that is laid out then set off to detonate any possible explosives in the area. Pretty interesting stuff.
Heres a vid for those wanting to see it in action.

@North Star: Are you suggesting a North Korean style photoshop job?

It really is a strange piece of hardware. The guided missiles that most western countries use (MLRS) are gyro guided, not wire guided. Additionally a cable big enough to show up in that photo would be fairly thick. I doubt they have enough to keep it attatched all the way to the target.
I'm going to guess that the wire is how the missile connects to the fire control, and how the missile gets its targeting data. It will most likely disconnect shortly after launch. Alas, I don't know much about Japanese missiles, other than the PATRIOTs they bought from us.

@Tacticalspoon: Tacticalspoon, its a rocket system that works like the M58 MICLIC.
The vehicle if you are curious is a Type 92 (MCV)
