Arrival from Japan
Hola everyone!
Hope all are fine. Sorry for being a bit absent but have been very busy.
Few days ago a big box came from Japan....another on the way.....and brought all my belated birthday presents!
I wanted to share them with all of you. If there is an item anyone one of you want to see in specific, please let me know and I will upload a photo.....
Once the other box arrives, will share it as well
Enjoy them!

I think I'm as excited to see what is coming as you are to receive them

Hola ChrisW!
Thank you......I was sooooo happy receiving it. Believe me and I couldn't wait to share it with all of you! No one here knows the series anyway......
I have two agents in Japan, one is called Cathand and another is Buyee. Which one is Celga? Never heard from it. Is it located in USA?

Hola ElectricWhite!
Thank you so much......I'm just starting my collection but as you can see, I'm very passionate about it. It was funny to find in Japan an item from USA: the comic from Jason (Alex Ross).
As I said, more to come......another two hauls more.....

Hola Springie!
Yes, it was indeed, thank you!!!!
.I'm still waiting for the other box. The sketches that we talked about are still in Japan but the good news are that I'm going to get so more. So once I get them I can scan them for you to have a look and choose a nice one to color!

Hi Adriana,
Neat, boxes full of fun! Years ago I got big boxes like that from friends I had in Japan - two or three times a year for several years. They really helped fill out my collection and I always eagerly anticipated the shipments when my friends told me something was coming. So I know how you feel now.
You've got a lot of great things there and I'm sure we're all waiting to see what you post next!
Best,
The Other Jason

Hola Jason....the other,
Yes! The box weighted 10.5 kg and it took me a couple of hours to go though each and every item. Like a little girl during Christmas!
Every year I got shipments and this is the first time I got for Gatchaman. Normally are from Candy or Inuyasha so, I'm new collecting memorabilia from the series......
There is one more on the way and two waiting in Japan. My idea is to get everything the next two months or the latest for Christmas.....and for that I got a really nice present from Santa....more cels from Joe!!!!
Will keep you all posted!

Hola ChrisW,
Great site to get the items. It's similar to the ones I have. Lucky for you, it's in English because for me, it's all in Japanese. I use the poor translation they provide but works for me, I'm used to it.....
Please share anything you have bought from there!

I showed you most of my collection earlier, but I got some stuff in the meantime:
See Here

Your collection is amazing Chris!!! Thank you so much for sharing!
I love the figures, the Phoenix, the drawings....all! Even Ken's baby doll is so cute. Compare to you I'm just an amateur jeje
Thanks a lot!

That baby doll was made by E. D. Darling here on the forum. So far she's made and given away (raffled off, so given away randomly to those of us interested) a number of team members, and I think she plans to continue when she has time. (She's moved, etc., so been very busy.) She's very talented! Maybe someone will make the effort to find a link to her forum threads.
It's all relative. Tatsunokofan and The Other Jason have much larger collections!

It looks like you got a lot of goodies, Adriana! I am sure you will have a lot of fun going through it all. Just curious though: why is it all coming in one box? Did it all come from one store, or did you purchase someone else's collection? Or something else? When I get things, I normally get 1 or 2 pieces at a time, and I've been collecting slowly over the years. I don't usually receive such a big box!

Hola Chris,
Wow! That's really interesting. Hopefully she starts doing it again as The doll si adorable. I wonder if she can do Joeas well
Also, it's true that everything is relative. In your case, you have such important items that really reflects your passion for the series. Especially the way you display them, I hope one day I could do the same.....in the meantime, mine are in boxes
