I, too, am a huge Silent Hill fan. I even imported the Silent Hill disc box soundtrack collection from Japan.

I also own Sinner's Reward. Good choice.


Edit: I'm also a fan of Metric Shocked


I was looking at that box....little too expensive for my blood at this point in time(I believe it's out of print as well). Hopefully they can do a re-printing or something in the near future.

I've enjoyed Sinner's Reward so far, the only other SH book the comic store had was "Past Lives," so I'll probably pick up that one next. I'll probably just get the omnibus online somewhere.

Hey, great minds think alike! I love Metric, they're easily in my top 3 of bands from my home country (Arcade Fire and Wolf Parade would be the other two). I'm very excited for the new album, Synthetica. Smile

Right Stuf shipped my Kurenai DVDs today, a few weeks in advance of the announced date.

I got that one that too. For some reason I though she looked different from what I seen online then I realized that it was the same then.

Dr. Thursday:

Kaleido Star Season 1 Complete collection.

Yes I know would have been cheaper just to pre-order the save edition but since I have the second set already I wanted to keep it consistent.

It is weird isn't it? I thought this too. She looked more...full bodied? But I guess when you compare them they are the same thing, In this case the pictures are just deceptive for some odd reason.

Viz products are now on sale at RightStuf, so I weakened and ordered all four boxed sets of NANA. A great series, but it shoots my budget out of the water this month.

I've paid for my Wagnaria Nendo playsets, meaning that both my orders from HobbySearch have managed to find themselves billed at the worst possible time. At least I finally noticed that PayPal can either do the currency conversion themselves or leave it to my card issuer so I can use my debit card without getting that nasty 3% fee. My credit card gives me a better exchange rate, but it's nice to have options.

While I was planning on picking up a couple of things from the Viz sale at TRSI, I instead ended up putting in my pre-order for the NIS America release of Bunny Drop. This will be my first NIS purchase, so I'm curious about how the packaging and everything will look and feel in person.

Well, since we don't seem to get very many Viz DVD sales, I figured I might as well take advantage. Picked up sets 6-11 of Bleach and the third movie. I don't think Bleach is all that good, but it's one of those things I just feel compelled to see it through to the end. I guess it would bother me more to see an incomplete series on my shelf than to sit through what I consider to be a mediocre, borderline bad anime.

It's oh so worth it though. I went through the exact same internal struggle about my budget a while back when it was on sale at RightStuf, but it makes me happy to have it in my collection.

Oh, no doubt there. I rented the series a while back and have wanted it on my shelves since. It just hurts this month because I just ordered the Haibane Renmei bluray boxed set from amazon.jp, which took out my budget. Hopefully, my import will arrive Monday. At least, that's what the tracking tool tells me.

TRSI

Cat Planet Cuties, Complete Series, Limited Edition, DVD/Blu-ray combo (with bonus art booklet)
Okami-san and Her Seven Companions, Complete, Limited Edition, DVD/Blu-ray combo (no bonus mousepad, sad face)
Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt, Complete Series, Limited Edition, DVD (also have the bonus metal Heaven Coin reserved for my order)
Sound of the Sky (Sora no Woto), Complete Set, Limited Edition, DVD

Amazon

Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works, Blu-ray
Bunny Drop, GN 6
Bunny Drop, GN 7
Genshiken: Second Season, GN 1

I am not sure why Amazon is shipping Fate/Stay Night with Bunny Drop GN 7. Fate is available in June 2012 while Bunny Drop ships in November 2012. Because of that, my delivery estimate is Wednesday, November 28, 2012 to Tuesday, December 4, 2012.

I hope Amazon is okay with reorganizing how my items are shipped when I talk to them.

NIS America Online Store

Atelier Meruru: The Apprentice of Arland, Limited Edition: Grand Finale Set, PlayStation 3 (NIS America Online Store exclusive)
Occult Academy, Complete Series, Premium Bonus Set (with exclusive bonus item, Waldstein Academy 1999 Student Planner), Blu-ray
