Kvelertak t-shirts:



Prints look awesome in person too.

John Baizley is a huge hero of mine...did some of Kvelertak's album art.

Awesome stuff...check it out if you have not yet.
Also...Baroness' new album is pretty epic....

Just my $.02

I have a Kylesa shirt with his art on it and some albums. I dig his stuff but I'm think it is being overused now. He is like the new Pushead or something.

[Drachenherz]

Oh my... wasn't even actively looking for one, but an offer that I just couldn't decline just suddenly came by...

[moh]

dont you just love those crazy deals that come out of nowhere?

No, seriously, I was posting my newly get aero fighters 2 cart over at arcade otaku, and out of nowhere I was offered this sweet 161 in 1...

And waddayasay... It actually feels good not having to swap the carts all the time. And having plenty of choice to play.

My piggy bank that is my blast city is thankful for that. (I still pay 1 Swiss franc each play - even with the 161 in one *g*)

I get the Pushead reference, but I must say that Baizley's work is much more articulate and his subject matter (though the renaissance ladies are recurring) seems to be of a wider spectrum.

I'm just a big fan.

Kylesa rocks BTW...good call.

Tihihi, actually, your reaction is quite tame. I almost expected you to ban me. Don't ban me, please, bro!

Excuse me, but this is not a bootleg.

Did they throw in a free Prada bag with your purchase?

[Casey120]

Some nice stuff from the man in Japan !

[gabe]

Nice purchases.

My copy of this arrived today as well.

[Casey120]

Lets hope for a volume 2 !

[rancor]

Lets hope for a volume 2 !

The author said he is working on another volume, so.....
I'm guessing May 26th, 2013. That's when the next event is.

[emphatic]

Today I got this lovely 2 x vinyl album that I've been looking for for quite some time now. Brand new with US shrink wrap and no cutout but a bargain price nonetheless.

[drauch]

Really excited for this. Been after it for a few months for a decent price, and finally found one. Came with the spine card, even, so now that will be floating around. Not sealed, but in pretty good shape, excluding a teeny bit of water damage on the back. Got a bunch of other shit that isn't interesting as well. Who was it that had that Fray mug on here a long while back?

[Pyongyang]

Yep this is confirmed. I had a brief exchange (as in a couple of tweets, not an exchange of underwear) with the guy on Twitter recently just to say thanks for such a wonderful photobook.

The guy replied saying he is working on a Vol.2 to release next year as Mr. Jeffticles rightly says too.

In other news... for the first time in weeks I checked my Japan Post sea mail tracking code this morning. A box the size of Texas has finally landed on European shores. I've been waiting since September for this box of full of used crap I'm about to get bumraped in VAT and Customs charges for to arrive.

HURRAH!

Hrm... :strokes beard:

I'm out of town at the moment, but I got an email from my bro who just received the photo mook on my behalf and he said it's a bit rubbish on the whole.

What is that book? Just artsy-fartsy pics of control panels?

[Drachenherz]

Some more mvs goodness. Thanks to albolo.

[moh]

nice gets drachenherzeopjcdsimpslkdjgd :B

let me know how you like neo turf masters

[drauch]

Neo Turf Masters is the real deal for golf. Fuck Tiger Woods.

"ON THE GWEEEEEEEEEEEEN."

[Skykid]

I like arts fartsy pics of arcades

I just heard the mook is a bit disappointing. Some good old decaying stuff and a few nice shots, but a lot of unnecessary filtering and not much that's significant. I got this in an email tho, it will be a while before I get my hands on the thing so it would be good to hear other people's thoughts so I can gauge if the 2nd vol will be worth getting. Speak up!

Niiiiiiiiice. Neo Turf Masters is one of the best golf games I've played, good stuff.

Probably in a nutshell yeh,
Pics of Arcade's/cabs in decay presented in a artsy-fartsy way, it's all a bit depressing

I like it

It's a very nice change compared to all the shmupping and slugging I did on the cab. Very well done and quite challenging after all. Like it very much so far.

[gabe]

+1 for Neo Turf Masters. That and League Bowling are two of my favorite games to play with 'non-gamers.'

"ON THE GWEEEEEEEEEEEEN."

Indeed.

[Pyongyang]

OK, so I unpacked my Sea Mail treasure chest this evening and here are the photos of the items I got. I'm also uploading a video to my YouTube channel now if anyone would like to check that out later.

Fully boxed. Excellent condition. I have recently sourced the 2P pink gun to go with it. Again, fully boxed.

Next is a special promo of the theme music from the soundtrack to Running Boy aka Star Soldier: The Movie. Includes a signed Meijin Takahashi card!



This came from Amazon, not Japan. A Behringer Xenyx 802 to use on my upcoming podcast and for fiddling with film and game capture levels live.
