Why are they better?

I didn't even know this thing existed, I've been looking for a nice medium between tablet and phone - but how big is it in relation to one's head? I love my S3 and had my eye on a Note II, but if the Mega doesn't make you look like a spanner when you're talking on it, I might go for that instead.

Went down to my local comic book shop and bought the new Dark Horse Comics issue #1 of "The Star Wars" (today's the first day of it officially being able to buy it at retail). It's an interesting read and is based on George Lucas' original SW script that he created back in 1974. There are some slight differences in the introduction of some of the major characters in the first issue but still has that unmistakable SW vibe going on. It certainly has Mr. Lucas' stamp of approval, indeed.

I'll give the digital version a whirl.

I just read the other Star Wars comic that's going on in the original universe, the one that started in January 2013. It's pretty fun..

Went and bought one more white neGcon as a spare and this one was even boxed. So I now have two black ones and two white ones. Gotta keep the balance.

This just arrived in my mailbox. As a heads up, these are available on Amazon Japan brand new for about 3600 yen at the moment. Pick one up if you haven't already.

Arnie's hair looks kinda weird...

Actually, I would probably put on his clothes, go to an LA nightclub and randomly approach people asking "Sah-ruh Coh-nar!?"

It took a while to get here, but my co-worker finally came back with some goodies from a recent business trip to Japan. I fully expect to be terrible at Saidaioujou, but looking forward to trying out Eschatos and Ginga Force, since I've heard a lot about them. I wanted to get a copy of Espgaluda II as well, but he couldn't find one.

It's right next my desk at work! I've been staring at the box all day! (I've not taken any of the stuff out else I'll never be able to repack it right to take it home so I re-sealed it). As an aside, there is a 15kg 'Misc' Superhaul™ and another 6.5kg STG Superhaul™ bobbing up and down on the buxom, rubenesque waves of the Indian Ocean I imagine as I type this.

Too much stuff in the box for photos sir, shall post a video tonight or at the weekend. :oops:

Got a new PCB today for my Astro City cabinet - Batsugun!

Loving it so far - Big fan of Toaplan, and this seems up there with Dogyuun as one of my favorite Toaplan shooters.

Here is the unboxing. Took a while to upload as it is thirty minutes long. Feel free to fall asleep, although I hope you see some interesting items. One of which really caught me by surprise! :D
