    It's embarrassing, how much I want these. They would look splendid standing next to Spider Jerusalem and (Gaiman's) Death on top of my computer.

    I earned my Kotaku star with a Professor Layton joke. Only two days after my first disemvowelment, no less.

    *sniffles* Oh, memories.

    Ah man, you show these off, but you never mentioned that Prototype Revoltech Layton I sent you guys?

    [www.bifuteki.com]

    I mean a single pose figure like this... meh... But with the revoltech one I will be able to do Layton photo comics of any pose and subject/joke/etc...

    Oh wait, bobble heads? That makes them much cooler, but I'd still rather get the revoltech other this....

    .... Maybe I should get both....

    Giclée? I guess no one told the american printmaker who coined this fancy way to call an ink-jet print that it's a slang term in french for ejaculation. Wait... actually, maybe someone told him.

    In reply to Mommy, Where Do Video Game Toys Come From?
    interestingly enough, did you know that a lot of knockoff toys actually come from the same factories the originals were produced in?? I was told by a rather major toy designer that sometimes companies produce, say 20,000 pieces then send another 10,000 not so well produced ones out the back door.. #streetfighter

    Maybe because it's the fake pirate version?
    I dunno about gaming toys, but it's already happening for anime figures.

    Figures that really looks good and perfectly resembles anime characters are something relatively new (few years ago we only had garage kits, which were kits people had to assemble and paint themselves, and the material wasn't very good).

    Now, with new technology, materials and techniques, figures are being sold more than ever.

    As one would imagine, this opened a new chinese pirating market.

    And it's becoming harder and harder to tell the pirate version from the original, fake ones reproducing even details from the original box though the figure itself, still looking very similar, has a far worse material quality and paint job.

    Just google for "fake figures" or "fake nendoroids" if you wanna know more about it. #streetfighter

    These, quite honestly, remind me of those landscape images that you see and can buy at the souvenir shops abroad.

    Now No. 2 is admittedly cool, but not $175 cool. :P

    But anyways, the fact that this is limited to 100 printings should get the antiquarians' panties all riled up in a bunch. #halo3odst
