Morpho Knight is insane. He only appears in two Kirby games, but both times he appears, he does so by randomly showing up, effortlessly killing the crazy strong foe you were about to face (First the strongest warrior in the galaxy, now the ultimate lifeform) and going "Nah you're fighting me instead." What a freaking chad.

Had to wait about 2 weeks before I could pick him from a family member, but I finally got Marth in the mail! I was worried that he'd be fragile Lyn was, but he's surprisingly well built and sturdy. My only nitpick is that I had an extremely hard time inserting him into his base; I ended up finding out that his upper torso can taken apart to grip his legs easier despite not being mentioned in the manual.

As much as I love Ike as a character and Lyn being a best girl, Marth might be my favorite of the three figures. Great pose, sturdy, and perfect paint job. It still kind of amazes me that it took so long for the three of them to get figures* but now with the Big 3 out of the way, I'm curious to see who they have planned for the future. I have Female Byleth on pre-order for March 2023. Roy/Alm/Celica would be my personal picks to be next.

*Why did minor characters like Tharja/Cordelia/Camilla get figures first? I probably answered my own question...

I wanted SO bad to get these 3 but I just couldn’t pool the money together to even get Ike. They look dope tho.

My work schedule worked out so that I'm able to watch Bullet Train on Tuesday (Tuesdays are cheap days at the movie theater, and I've got four hours between my shifts), so I'm looking forward to that - I've liked the director's other movies that I've seen (Deadpool 2 and John Wick), and the premise seems like it will make for a fun, well-choreographed action movie.
Hope you like Thomas the Tank Engine

and no, I'm not saying that because Thomas is a train and the movie involves a train

Well, apparently my mom now has COVID. Our doctor said the rest of us shouldn't test until we have symptoms, which we don't. Aaaaand apparently I still have to go to school despite a family member having COVID. Uh- yikes.

That's awful, I pray for a speedy recovery.

If there are two big things I'd recommend to FE & Pokemon fans looking to get figures, it'd be to:

1. Order from Amazon JP or Japan as a whole directly. Skip the middle man sellers like BigBadToyStore. $150 after shipping/tax/foreign fee vs. BBTS $215 before shipping/tax. Just note that State Taxes aren't directly applied at checkout often times so you'll need to keep your receipt for April the following year. Amazon JP is generally my go to as they have an English version of the site and will deliver directly overseas addresses.

2. Buy early. Prices tend to be cheaper when they first go up for pre-order and if they somehow do go down, sites like Amazon JP will issue a refund.

The US dollar as a whole is stronger than the Yen so your might goes farther as well. Currently 100 Yen = $0.75.

regardless of gender, Mako was probably the biggest **** in the Avatar franchise. Toyed around with Korra and Asami for 2 straight books only to lose them both to each other

Bro I can't believe seeing an anime clip made me cry my eyes out in the middle of the night


Is this how it feels to be catered to specifically? Just hearing the remix of the classic OP was enough to move me
