Since my trip to Japan last week was in the beginning of the year, the shops in Akiba had stockpiles of magazines. Among these magazines, several come wrapped together with little boxes of goodies. One of them was Dragon magazine that came with a Sakurano Kurimu nendo. I don’t know what got into my head at the time I saw it but I actually had second thoughts. If I hadn’t run back to buy this, I probably would not be able to imagine the regrets I would carry out of Japan.

The little nendo was made by Good Smile Company, which is a stamp of quality in itself, since Good Smile Company somehow just makes its figures with the most awesome eyes ever. The Nendo comes packaged in parts in a sectioned plastic bag.
Here’s Kurimu in all her assembled glory.
And here she is in her election sash. All hail the President of the Student Council.
My next trip to Japan will definitely involve getting the rest of her friends and in bloomers as well!

When Apple company didn’t help make personal computers and Starbucks didn’t help make java, how appear experienced these people grow to be so prospering? Your way to own most innovative and most interesting items, although intoxicating, is often a somewhat congested area. Preferably, The apple company and also A coffee house created their very own area of interest.
