Oh Goodie, Another Mother Statue
7:00PM Luke Plunkett | Camille Young’s handmade, resin statues are exquisite. But she doesn’t just make ‘em for Mother 3 handbooks! Oh no. She makes them for previous games in the series as well. More »First Street Fighter IV Product Announced
10:00PM Brian Ashcraft | Have a gander at the first Street Fighter IV figurine. That’s of course Chun-Li and Chun-Li’s thighs — not to mention Chun-Li’s massive feet. (You know what they say about girls with big feet? We don’t.) It is a rather nice Chun-Li statue. The ten inch figurine will set you back $US 100 and is limited to 700 individually numbered pieces. If that’s out of your price range, there is also a 4 inch statue as well that goes for $US 10. Press release after the jump. More »2 Girls, 1 Cup (And A Witty Japanese Pun)
9:00PM Brian Ashcraft | Not only is pantsu flashing fighter Ikkitousen hitting the PSP, but it’s also rolling out the limited edition goods! Ikkitousen is inspired on Chinese epic Romance of Three Kingdoms and is set against a backdrop of warring high school students. The PSP version, called Ikkitousen Eloquent Fist, is getting a figure set that features Hakufu and Hakufu’s flirty, booze drinkin’ mum Goei. While Westerners will be quick to see the (unintentional?) 2-girls-1-cup joke, the actual Japanese joke is a pun and has quite a different meaning! This is an “oyako donburi figure” set: “Oyakodon” literally means “parent-and-child donburi” and refers to a dish that consists of egg, chicken and rice. And “Donburi” is a “rice bowl dish”. Geddit? HILARIOUS. Hit the jump for another pic of this limited edition oyako don figure set. More »Statue Of Happiness Sits On My Desk (Not To Scale)
