ROCKMAN -dot.Strap Collection- Vol.1 ロックマン －ドット・ストラップ－コレクション

I was amazed by how big & vibrant these ended up being. They're made of thick rubber, and their colors really pop, especially for only using 8 colors across the whole set. There are only 8 straps in each box, but 9 in the set (7 + 2 secret), so it's impossible to get the whole set in one box. However, I'm glad that I got the secret that I did - the 1up and the E-Tank - because the other one is an 8-bit rendition of Bass/Forte, which, mreh. (I peeked on Yahoo Japan Auctions to see what it was, and of course several were up for sale/bid) I really can't wait for the next set, the robot masters from the first game are the stars.

Game Characters Collection Mini Persona 3 & Persona 4 Vol.2 ゲームキャラクターズコレクション ミニ ペルソナ3＆ペルソナ4 第2弾

Series 2 of the Persona 3 & 4 Mini Game Characters Collection from Megahouse is as interesting as the first, imo. While containing more human faces this time around, this set does contain another Kuma and another version of Aegis (this time she's wearing a kimono).

This Month's Random Junk 今月のランダムジャンク

Of course, no month would be complete without things that are completely random, but totally rad. Two passcases this month, lol, Gloomy Bear and chibi-fied Gintoki. Also, a "The Earl" (Earl Grey) Lunartik in Tea figure.

Gundam Unicorn Londo Bell Patch ガンダムユニコーンワッペンシリーズロンドベル

This is why I don't watch new anime anymore. I get waaaaay too into them right off the bat and then want all of their associated products. Case-in-point, after watching just 3 OAV episodes of Gundam Unicorn, I've begun collecting GU paraphernalia, and being that it's a Gundam series, there is a sizable amount already. =3
