That's not hilarious, that's awful. That you find it hilarious must be a safety measure to stop you having a stroke at the sheer craziness - not to mention audacity - of that particular marketing division.

And wow, scantily clad chicks galore. Seeing all of them makes me wonder what kind of fandom I've gotten myself into, a queasy feeling I get every now and then. Yikes. And honestly, yet another Rei? That doesn't make me angry, just a little sad instead.

Those are my kind of people. Though you forgot to mention the fetish outfits--you gotta have the fetish outfits too. I liked that figure of the girl who "doesn't understand pants"; kind of reminded me of the Masked Hentai version of AIR GEAR's Ringo. I'd love to see an Astro Toy review of the Robots: The Robot Spirits line.

The Michael Jackson line looks too scary to have in your room while you sleep, but still funny to own.

Sonsaku Hakufu was the focus in the first Ikkitousen series, but it ended up being Kanu that empties the fanboys' collective wallets. Hakufu shows up as an afterthought in PVC and garage kit merch now. And Kanu is fast approaching Asuka and Rei as the most over-sculpted anime girl of the decade.

Funny. I got that Shunya Yamashita sexy Rei figure. It was a gift from a friend. No, rly. Is it bad when friends contribute to your Rei collection habit?
