I’m really out of the loop when it comes to the Gundam Unicorn OVA that is coming out this year. So was surprised to find out that Volume 1 of the DVD is available on March 12 this month on a world wide release schedule. This means that it will already have English version in it.

Received this from my email today from CDJapan. A list of promos and coupons that they are offering this month to customers to entice them to buy. That time of the year again when money if overflowing due to bonuses. I just love Christmas season. There’s that smell of commerce in the air as people rush to buy gifts for their friends and loved ones.

Here’s a list of the specials they are offering

Update: A more detailed post with pictures on how to fix broken rubber bands in GI Joe figures can be found here.

In the coming weeks I’ll start posting my G.I. Joe - Real American Hero figure Collection. Have to take some time to do some repair of the figures first.

Due to the age of the figures the rubber band that is used to hold the legs, hips and torso together had deteriorated. My figures are usually stored in a box away from sunlight, why they deteriorated I don’t know, could be because of some built up moisture.

I was watching Macross Plus OVA during the weekend and noticed this panel of photos in Col. Millard’s office. I saw this in Episode 3, the time when Col. Millard was informing Isamu, Yang and Guld that Project Nova had been cancelled. At first glance it meant nothing to me and I hardly noticed it because it was only shown for a few seconds. Thanks to the powers of the DVD player I was able to freeze the frame and get a better look at it.
