 ETC Pac-Man Hat - New Import
   When faced with an emotionally disturbed individual on the streets of any bustling city, one may simply hustle across the street to bypass a potentially unpleasant encounter.

   When faced with an emotionally disturbed individual (please direct your attention to the gentleman on the lower-left)... who just happens to be wearing a Pac-Man hat, one may be too mesmerized by the spectacle to do much. With your mouth agape and feet frozen by wonderment, the fates would have to excuse your momentarily loss of the flee instinct. However, NCS recommends the following actions:

1) Smile. If the individual has been enraged by some invisible slight prior to your timely engagement, your smile may placate its temperament.

2) Slowly move away. Put your back against a wall if possible. Any sudden movement may be seen as an insult/slight that's not so invisible.

3) Find a member of law enforcement and confirm with him or her that you're both seeing the same thing. At this point, the officer may mosey up to the Pac-Man-Hat-Wearer to affirm that everything is okay and that it's all just a little Halloween-ish delirium. In the middle of summer...

Please note the description above is fiction. No allusions are being made.

   All preorders for the Pac-Man Hat are shipping today. Measuring a swarthy 12 x 12 x 8" in size, the hat is made of a plushy material and a retainer is located inside the inner "lips" of Pac-Man for stability and shape. The opening where one pokes his/her head through is stretchy to accommodate medium sized noggins as well as melon-like ones. 
 
 

TOY Gamera Mini JPN
 TOYS Gamera Mini Encyclopedia - New Import
   The "Gamera Mini Encyclopedia" features 15 super-deformed beasts from the Gamera movies packaged individually in lightweight cardboard boxes. Our favorite mindless beast, Guiron, is not present in the latest collection but we're assuming that it will show up in Gamera Mini Encyclopedia Part 2. Maybe. Glancing over the roster of figures, we spy one of the Terrans who drugged Akio and Tom with cakey donuts and watery milk in the unforgettable classic Gamera vs Guiron. There are also three versions of Gamera in different poses... all bare a mouthful of teeth and have sharp claws at the ready. Gyaos, Iris, Gappa, and others round out the collection of kaiju. Each figure measures 8cm tall and is packaged with a small packet of candy. Just in case you become hungry while ripping open the cardboard. 

   Please note that the toys are randomly packaged. If you wish to order a factory sealed case of 15 toys, please enter a quantity of "15" in your shopping cart. According to soothsayers, each factory sealed case will include the complete set of figures.
 
 

TOY Kasumi C2 JPN
 TOYS Kasumi 1/6 Scale Prepainted Figure C2 - New Import
Original sculpture by Hiroki Katayama
   When the 1/6 scale Kasumi PCV Figure was released in December 2004, supplies were short shipped in Japan and vendors were left with insufficient stock to fill orders. In a bid for redemption, Max Factory has released another production of the Kasumi PVC figure. The original blue-costumed Kasumi was released in June and the white-costume variant in July.

   The figure measures 22cm tall and depicts the mighty Kasumi in a pose that she won't recreate in the battlefield. With her costume straining to contain the robustness of the twins, Kasumi does little to help the tentative situation by tipping over at a 90-degree angle. She tugs at the top of one of her thigh-high leggings while looking furtively to the side. Her fiery locks drape over her left shoulder in a cascade of tapered tresses. A sword is tied to her back sash... apparently ready for quick swordplay when necessary.

   All preorders are shipping today. New orders are welcome to ship this afternoon. Blue Kasumi is also in stock.  
 
 

TOY Binaltech BT-15 JPN
 TOYS Transformers Binaltech BT-15 - New Import
   A wizened tactician, Prowl proved his strategic prowess by providing the Autobots with timely information and decisive decisions during battle. In Prowl's Binaltech debut, the logical robot rocks a metallic blue paint-job and transforms into a Honda Integra Type-R Patrol Car. A ruby-red colored blight stick... no typo, is included in the packaging which may be gripped by Prowl's right hand and an acid pellet gun is grafted onto its left gauntlet. When in vehicle mode, a red light bar may be mounted on the top of the car. As with all other Binaltechs, the scale is 1:24.
 
 

TOY Final Fantasy XI Plushes JPN
 TOYS Final Fantasy XI Plushes - New Imports
   Square Enix ships a new pair of Final Fantasy plushes that were originally released last year. The plushes measure 30cm or roughly 10" tall with high quality fur and soft squeezable hides. If we recall correctly from the original shipment a few years ago, Mog sold the best and Sabotender followed up closely. The lamp swinging Tonberry was least popular.

   All preorders will ship today and new orders are welcome for dispatch this afternoon. Pricing is set at US$28 per plush.
 
 

NDS Jump Superstars JPN
 NDS Jump Superstars - Early Shipments
   Based on information gleaned from upcoming shipment invoices, Jump Superstars is being exported out of Japan tonight instead of Saturday as we originally expected. Due to the early shipments, please note that we will begin preparing for efficient dispatch of the game to all preorders as early as Thursday of this week. Friday at the latest. If you wish to make any shipping changes, please try to relay them to us by the end of business today.
   As of last night, we do not know if the bonus booklet will be included in a 1:1 ratio but we will update accordingly once we have news.

p4-7 Gamespot news on a Rent a Hero promotional campaign for Sanyo batteries. We envision the slogan to be something like, "When you're in a pinch... turn to Sanyo batteries to unpinch." Or something like that. There's also news on various promotional events around Japan and a Beatmania handheld game with the little turntable on the right and the five buttons.
p20-21 Samba de Amigo special report with a checklist of features to be found in the game. A photo of maracas shaking lightens the mood.
