I don't care much for R-Type games, but their ship design is lovely.
I own one of these items. However, I am led to believe that this and a whole bunch of other stuff from hobbyfan are bootlegged.

(sorry for derail)
The biggest unanswered question is where is the money? [1CCS]

This one? It's a large and wide one, loosely based on this illustration. Better be quick, they're low in stock ^_-

I've actually got three different sets of Rei and Asuka, the ones from Shonen Ace 10th Anniversary (this one and this one, both hard to find outside of YAJ) and the Grimrock Mix Edition from Wonder Showcase Plus (this one, a cute animal-like take on the iconic plugsuits), as well as that set. There are 1/5 scale Reiand Asukafigurines out as well, but they are huge, and I want them, but it's finding space for them in my storage area ^_-

Play Asia lists the release as just Feb.2006 when it originally was Feb.14.1006. Does this mean their first stock dried up already?

Meh, Shinji Hosoe's worst effort ever. Too j-rockish, simple and bland for my taste. Techno or not, the soundtrack is just so BORING, his work on Under Defeat is a lot better. Pales in comparison to the Garegga OST, or Hosoe's older works for that matter (Metal Hawk, mmm). Boo! :)

I like it a lot. A lot is guitar based with some European metal influence combined with synths.

EDIT Only weak track is Air Pollution.

Does anyone know what that actually says? Are going to be in for an Ibara figure treat? Six of them? If so, this is going to be a very expensive month...

They're releasing about one a month through Cave's e-commerce website. Which means you probably won't be able to get them unless you live in Japan and can use their cellphone ordering service.

They're also holding a 500,000 yen contest: They want you to either make a drama movie with the figures (like the Ibara Gakuen promo movies), take interesting photographs of them, or showcase your custom figure modifications. (hopefully not including the sort of "custom modifications" I see on figures in Akiba shops and Mandarake...)

Pandering liek whoa

I've been listening alot to it lately allthough I didn't like it in the beginning and now I'm alot more positive.. not like there are so many similar releases that you wouldn't give these osts a second chance.. will have to go for that figure ;¨) really sad about the other figures. but then reko was supposed to be only cellphone merchandised or did they change their policy (I guess so as it's still sold on p-a..?)

Heh, you could always try eBay, Akadot, or Animemation. Animaxis usually gets restocks, best thing to do is to check their site regularly, or subscribe to the newsletter...

Hey guys, I bought the Ibara OST. And I only want to keep the Audio CD and willing to part with the figure for 2,600 yen (i.e. US$22.61) plus postage.

Anyone willing to give her a new home? Payment via PayPal.

BTW, I also got Reco figure of the MushiHime Sama OST too, same price.

PM me if you are interested.

Meidi is appearing on YAJ now. Just secured one for 2000Y.
(I'm impatient, don't want to wait for Play-Asia this time ^_-)

According to Cave's site, Midi should be available now as well. Haven't seen her on YAJ yet though.
