The Best at (Lumpy) Space.
It’s March, which means it’s no longer February. This is the basic concept of months and calendars people, what’s so hard to understand about it? It also being March means there are 2 video games […]

S’up FPNYC Faithful? This week I though I try something different and take some pictures of stuff I thought was neat IN-STORE, capturing our merchandise LIVE in it’s natural environment! And that doesn’t excite you, […]
Okay, okay, I’ll admit, I haven’t seen Jetman yet! I don’t have an excuse really; everybody (“YOU MEAN NERDS!”-Chris) considers it to be one of the best Sentai series of the 1990’s. Still, I’ve always […]
In all my years of collecting, I’ve come to notice one thing that is the bane of almost every collector’s existence: exclusives. In a time that doesn’t seem so long ago, mail-away exclusives used […]
It’s done. I have conquered the beast. No, this thing wasn’t a beast. The Unicorn Gundam is a beast. The Sinanju is more like a full-blown demon. There are those kits that we fear. […]
I have never gone up against a more frustrating model kit in my entire life. Now, earlier I spoke of how the Version Katoki kits are essentially the gold standards of Master Grades these days, […]
Toy Fair has happen and me start this article by thanking whatever Hasbro employee is reading this site on the regular, or stalking me elsewhere, internet or in real life. The fruits of your research […]
While I have more or less sworn off Western toys in varying forms, I have made the decision to still purchase a select few. These will only be special examples; like, one-off figures I just […]
Happy Saturday everyone! Hopefully the snow didn’t mess up your weekend plans too bad, and if they did, I feel for you and can relate. I HAD MUSEUM PLANS TODAY DAMMIT! As the title implies, […]
What’s this? An article where I can get by without talking about Square Enix releases?!? Why yes, yes it is! Of course that means returning to the old hotness, talking about comic book related merch, […]
I remember when this kit first came out. The Unicorn was awesome and cool and everyone was talking about it. A friend of mine mentioned the Sinanju and all I could say was, “what the […]
So close, it’s just so damn close! Never before in my life have I built a more satisfying kit. The Nu Gundam Version Katoki Master Grade is an engineering marvel, and it looks damn impressive […]
Well, that was easier than expected. Honestly I can’t say I’m surprised. As a much older Master Grade, it was pretty clear that it was going to be much simpler than the Nu Ver […]
Trolls trolling trolls, I swear. Apparently it’s been a whopping whole 1 week since the release of the last set of figures from Square Enix, so the company decided to release another 2 to make […]
Oh man, this kit is awesome. I apologize for the lack of updates, as I’ve been rather busy over the past few days. There’s a lot more to this kit than you can see, so […]
A few months back, you might remember the Real Type G-Armor kit I was going to build. Well, don’t worry, because I certainly haven’t forgotten it. I just got bogged down by Katoki-itis. I […]
Square-Enix, I under you ma. You have stock-holders you have to impress. You gotta make sure that green is coming in, despite the fact that the Japanese gaming scene isn’t looking so hot these days. […]
I suppose a 2013 preview list should not be written 14 days into year, but I did a lot of traveling over the holidays, and acquired several video games of worth. If anything, SEGA should […]
Ah, good ol’ Crossbone Gundam. Totally badass and armed to the teeth. Crossbone X-1 is an awesome design, but if it weren’t for my current play-through of Super Robot Wars Alpha 2, I probably never […]
HAPPY NU YEAR. I’m sorry, I couldn’t resist. I’ve been working during pretty much all of my spare time in some way or another on this kit. I kind of wish I had it all […]
