written on October 9, 2011 by Tier

I spent the last week playing Castles II, lamenting the lameness of my fantasy NFL team, and watching anime. I don’t think anybody is interested in reading about the first two but perhaps people might be interested in the anime … Continue reading →

Nanoha Takamachi from Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (School Uniform Version)

written on October 4, 2011 by Tier

Curiously, I have no scale-size Nanoha figures in my collection. I have six Fates, but no Nanoha. This imbalance must be amended – Fate is a lonely girl and she needs a friend. Somebody who will stand by her and … Continue reading →

Dakimakura Review – Teresa Beria from Seikon no Qwaser

written on September 29, 2011 by Tier

It’s pillowcase time and while this one is not nearly as salacious as the ones I usually buy, I’m a fan of Seikon no Qwaser and I particularly like Teresa Beria, the reserved and taciturn Maria. In anime and video … Continue reading →

Figure Photo Wallpaper

written on September 15, 2011 by Tier

How long has it been since I’ve put up some photo wallpapers? More than a year, that’s how long. Looking back at my old stuff, it’s a bit odd how not only my style and preferences have changed, but I’ve … Continue reading →

Cryska Barchenowa from Muv-Luv Alternative Total Eclipse (Lingerie Version)

written on September 10, 2011 by Tier

Girls with guns time continues with a look at Alphamax’s rendition of Cryska Barchenowa. Previously known for their lineup of exorbitantly expensive polystone statues that seemingly nobody bought, Alphamax has in recent times redirected themselves towards mainstream PVC figure production. … Continue reading →

Triela from Gunslinger Girl

written on September 5, 2011 by Tier

It’s girls with guns time. I’m a big fan of the genre in anime but I skipped over Gunslinger Girl entirely. I like girls with guns but there’s an unstated qualifier there – which is to say, I like attractive … Continue reading →
