I keep hoping that one of HH's mega-orders will somehow get delivered to me by mistake. Razz

Move to the States and open your own anime company, openings are available. Smile

Although it might not be a good investment, it be fun though!

That was my thought...but do we REALLY want to know? It might be he could tell us but have to kill us sort of thing.

HyugaHinata is insane Shocked Shocked Shocked


My own recent order from RightStuf:

Case Closed season 1 $19
Get Backers season 1 $18
Genesis Climber Mospeada $13
Got Anime? Membership $12

Totalling a measly, pitiful $62 ($76 with shipping)

My highest hopes are for Case Closed, which I haven't seen, but sounds like it will be good. Not sure if I'll like Get Backers, hence only buying season 1. It'll be nice to see Mospeada with original dialog/plot - I recall enjoying the pretty colours in its Robotech incarnation!

Yep, that's five digits, but unfortunately, it's still not the biggest order ever placed at RACS. Razz

As for my job, well... Ah, the joys of running your own business. Wink

This is a decent sized order for me, I usually don't go much above $50 at TRSI but I went about $95. Of course, compared to some people's recent purchases, it's nothing, but I'm quite pleased nonetheless, partly due to a lovely purring cat on me.

Anime:
Gurren Lagann set 3 LE
Cowboy Bebop Remix Collection
Speed Grapher 1-6
(singles from bargain bin, $4 each)

Oh yeah am I ever still in awe at HH's two recent purchases. Take collection pics!

I recently purchased these two lovelies:

Dollfie Dream Escalayer and Dollfie Dream Yoko

I'll have to wait til July for Yoko but she'll be worth it. Escalayer is absolutely lovely in person.

It's not exactly anime-related, but today I went to Best Buy and bought Utada Hikaru's This Is The One. Very pleased with the purchase, since the CD came with the bonus tracks of Simple and Clean and two versions of Sanctuary. ^^

The only downside to my visit is that I was going to actually purchase two items: the CD and Moribito Vol. 4. However, I found out yesterday that Moribito was pushed back to July 7th. -_- Ugh...evil Media Blasters.

Once again, TRSI has come through with flying colors. Latest shipment arrived today and already on the shelf.
Razz

I haven't bought anything today, but figured I'd post a question here: Anyone having problems with AnimeWild?

I'm getting that "We're sorry, but your item is no longer available" feeling again.
Sad

If it happens, TRSI.... Save a Louise Goth figure for me! I'll come to get it!
