TOYS Tuttuki Bako JPN

Import Preorder: $43.90/each
 TOYS Tuttuki Bako - Import Preorder

«©NCSX» In the far-flung future, NCS envisions a world of entertainment where reality meshes with virtual reality to produce immersive experiences for users. We're talking about feeling, smelling, and tasting in addition to seeing and hearing so that you're really there in some digital labyrinth or smoky tavern. Before that happens however, the consumer product industry has to take baby steps to the promised land.

   A few weeks ago, NCS stocked the Cyber Maid Alice product which featured a virtual desktop maid. That was a baby step. Next up, Bandai's Tuttuki Bako which features interactive digital objects that respond to external stimuli. Simply poke an index finger into the side of the gadget and you'll be able to push around a little panda, disturb a girl, cause an octopus to squirt ink, and perform other simple actions. A sample movie may be viewed on Bandai's website. Preorders are welcome to ship on November 20 at JPY3990 or US$43.90 from NCS. Please choose from red, black, or lime-green case color variants.
 
 

TOYS Crystal Seiza Strap JPN

Import Preorder: $28.90/set
 TOYS Crystal Seiza Strap Gashapon - Import Preorder

«©NCSX» Most people know their sign. For example, asking someone, "What's your sign?" will generally elicit a response such as "Libra," "Cancer," or "Leo." For people who want to bear their respective signs on their cell phones, Japanese manufacturer Kondo Sangyo has announced a set of twelve crystal doodads that are laser-etched with a particular sign of the zodiac (Aquarius, Aries, Cancer, Capricorn, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Pisces, Taurus, Scorpio, Sagittarius, and Virgo).

   Each Crystal Seiza Strap measures 9cm or 3.54" and is made of two parts - a crystal block and a puffy sticker which is tethered to a metal loop above the block. NCS will supply the Crystal Seiza in a complete set of 12 at US$28.90. Please note that the doodads will be packaged in plastic capsules. Preorders are welcome to ship in mid-late February 2009.

TOY Psychic Force Emilio JPN

Clearance: US$22.90/each

JAN Code: 4988611205426

 SOTD Psychic Force Emilio Figure - Clearance
Original Update: December 29, 2005
 «©NCSX» Taito explored the subject of psychic combat within close quarters in 1995 and followed up with two sequels. Psychic Force introduced the world to airborne warriors such as Burn, Wendy, Sonia, and Emilio. In the case of Emilio, the green-haired warrior was the only "psychic" who sported a pair of wings to support his aerial maneuvers.

   NCS originally stocked Psychic Force Complete Edition in late 2005 and Taito released three special editions which contained a specific bonus figure. For today's sale, we offer the Emilio figure which measures 10cm or roughly 4" in height. The figure is packaged in a cardboard backed blister pack and we'll throw in the original game carton as well.   

Sale Offering
   NCS' remaining inventory of the Psychic Force Complete Emilio Figure is new, factory boxed, and the packaging is in excellent condition. Pricing is set at US$22.90 per figure which includes "free" shipping by USPS Media Mail within the U.S.
