I love Spider-man. Whne I saw the preorders for these Amazing Spider-Man 2 figures, I did not hesitate to grab classic Spidey, and Superior Spidey.I have a ton of Marvel universe Spider-Men (every variation cough cough) but I' wanted a bugger, more fun figure of him. instead I bought three! I hated the Amazing Spider-Man movie, but I think the second one will be okay. Plus they gave him the classic outfit, so that's all the more reason to love it. It's a shame though that we won't get more Spock Adventures due to it coming out, since Peter Parker must be the lead, or new comic fans will be confused. I bought the Superior Spider-Man in his honor, so I will never forget.
The packages reflect the quality within! Spidey and Superior Spidey have thick, solid, and tight packages and make use of the space withing. Scartlet Spidey is in a space wasting pose, and comes with nothing. That pretty much sums up these figures.
Classic Spidey comes with an extra set of hands, and a build a figure part for Green Goblin. Superior Spidey has the same, while Scarlet Spider has nothing, despite having the biggest box. Yeah, wtf. Poor Scarlet Spider has the worst figure too. He looks like he's wearing a diaper while the other two have tightly sculpted butts, and has a very flatly painted costume, he lacks the muscle definition of the other two as well.. Classic Spidey has awesome gritty detail, with all the webs etched into his figure, and beautifully painted. Superior Spidey has more of a clean look, but with great muscle definition, and a nice flat black color.
The real question is, how poseable is this figure ? Is it decently poseable and can it pull off some sick poses? It can't do those early 90s Todd McFarlane poses, but it's pretty good. I'm impressed by the shoulders, all three figures use this complex shoulder system that can contract and swivel, it's really cool. They even have ankle rockers and solid hip movement. Yes, even Kaine. So the verdict ?
Regular Spider-Man- 9/10!
Superior Spider-Man- 8/10
Scarlet Spider- 6/10
All three are on Bigbadtoystore currently. Scarlet Spider is on clearance, as he's barely worth $8, I can't imagine anyone paid full price for him. The other two are $15 each, I saw Superior Spider-man at target the other day for $20, so I'd recommended getting these guys there. Sadly, no other figures are sold individually, I'd like a Black Cat figure. Maybe someday!

Double beauties! Code Geass C.C. Yukata version and Rise Kujikawa Persona 4: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena
Let's lead with our best foot forward, C.C! I choose you!
The box is much bigger than I expected, and it came faster too. Insert whatever sexual innuendo you choose right here. I love the box, it's artistic some may say. It nicely frames pictures of the product with whit borders. Still, the real beauty is inside! Like a vagina!!!
This is a really sexy figure, from her twin tails, to her come hither look, to her Yukata falling off her shoulders showing boobs.. The fan can come out of her hand, I turned it upside down to get her face better. The paint job is exquisite, they even painted her fingers and toe nails, I don't think any of my other figures have that feature. The yukata has nice details, as does her fan and wrist band. So what are you waiting for ? Does this not show enough panties fro you ? C.C. Yukata version- 10/10!
Excuse the shitty hotel room lighting, and all that jazz. I had actually forgotten about Rise, she was best girl from Persona series, but 3 is my favorite (Fuck the first one) so it's understandable I forgot about her. I saw her on a dealer's table, and knew she was coming home with me! Yay!
Looking pretty cool there Rise! She sits on top of her Televisions as it were her throne. The figure is a solid representation of Rise, and the T.V.s are an interesting base. The main points I notice are how well detailed her uniform is, and her hair. There are nicer Rise figures, but they also cost more for their details. I'd say this is a nice mid range one, price and quality wise. Rise Kujikawa Arena whatever- 7/10!

Asuka 120% Statue Fest! With Sega Fun and Asuka Langley Shikigami
I picked up no less than three Asuka statues, because they looked awesome. I paid too much for them of course, since that is the standard at an anime convention! Still, I felt that I needed them in my life! Now you can feel the need too!
The lighting on these pictures suck because I took them in a hotel room. As you can see, it's Asuka from Evangelion 3.0: Gays on Pianos! In her duct tape plug suit and fancy hat. I can't forget the eye patch, since she lost it serving our country in Nam.
It is GLOURIOUS! It's from the same line as my Kaworu figure, they make a great power couple together. I love the pose this figure strikes, with her jacket blowing in the wind, and her weaboo hat. The hair and sculpt are great, and she has Dat Ass. The detail on her boob duct tape is fabulous as well. I shall give her a 7/10. It would be higher if she had been cheaper.
I picked this up from the same seller I bought Leon from! She was $15, which is okay I guess. I wanted an Asuka figure in her new Fabulous 2030 plug suit, and this was the best I had seen.
The paint is vibrant, and the sculpt is top class. I love it! The hair coloring is the best to my eyes out of the three Asuka Statues I have. Her hands are even on her hips in a classic Asuka pose. Yay. Ban dai does it again- Evangelion Portrait F Asuka 7/10!
As soon as I bought the above Asuka by Ban Dai, I saw this on sale at the table around the corner for $35. I snapped it up, since I had still had cash to burn. I do slightly regret the middle Asuka on this her blog. Not too badly though! Once again this figure is made by Sega, and I've come to expect great figures from them, even if they haven't made a decent game since Shenmue.
This is an okay figure, I really don't like lying down figures much, they take up too much space. I have mine propped on her side leaning against the wall. I'm fairly certain the fan boys love her in this sensual pose with the sex hair, but I'm not a huge fan. It's a decent figure for the price, plus the underside of her is hilarious due to being made to lay on it. Sega Asuka- 6/10.

Play Arts Kai Leon S Kennedy Resident Evil 6 version.
I've only played two Resident Evil Games to completion- Resident Evil 4 and Zero, and of those, I only enjoyed 4. So obviously, I'm going to think Leon is a bad ass dude. I played 6 to the point where it crashed on the PC, and gave up. I was only going to play Leon's route anyway, but fucking up the coding on his route out an end to even that. Still, I've been in the market for a Leon for quite some time, most of the after market prices were ridiculous, and the Play Arts Kai was pricey. Then i saw him in person and knew I could not leave that anime dealer's booth without him. So here he is for all to enjoy!
The box is impressive, and it looks like a bad ass G.I. Joe doll is within! Which is pretty much what you're getting! The cover flap is in English, which is cool. I think this may be an American release then ? It doesn't really matter in any case. Let's take him out and play!
Whoooo wee that is one handsome hunk of man! Leon is built, stoic, and well detailed. He even has veins in his hands, and stubble! The jacket has a rubbery feel to it too, which is nice. As with Lightning, the figure is heavy and solid. It included the same retarded assemble a stand, but I tossed that shit away ASAP. Leon comes with an extra pair of hands, two pistols, and a rifle with a knife on the end.
The rifle is cool, and he holds it very well, like he actually knows how to use it. Leon has decent articulation, essentially what I expect from this line,they seem to prioritize detail and heft for poseability. I'm fine with this.
I really love this figure! He's just too cool, every Resident Evil fan should have him in their collection. Did anyone else think he looks like a manlier version of Squall ? Like and American version almost. It must be the hair. Anyway, Leon S. Kennedy Play Arts- 9/10! Must buy post haste!

Food Review! Staring Taco Bell's latest offerings and Weaboo snacks! Get ready to vomit.
Well I ate some of the worst food this past weekend, and now you get to experience them second hand! What more could you want? First up is Taco Bell.
Up first is the Chipotle Chicken Loaded Griller. I initially started going to taco Bell when I heard tell of the Buffalo Chicken Loaded Griller. I was excited to try this, and was only slightly let down. It's basically a less spicy version of the Buffalo Chicken laoded griller. It has less sour cream, which is a plus I guess ? Still, it is half tortilla like all their other Loaded Grillers, so I expected such cheapness. It's for those of you who want to try something new and lamer than what you usually eat. 7/10
Next is the Chili Cheese Fry loaded Griller. Us Autitsts will remember Sonic the Hedgehog loved Chili Cheese dogs, so this is close enough, if you're a vegan. This is basically a tortilla stuffed with potato turds and a hint of chili and cheese. It was so bland I couldn't even finish it, ugh. I expect better from you Taco Bell! Why you do this to me ? 3/10.
Finally is the stuffed nacho, a great idea. . . in theory. It's a tortilla in the triangle shape of a nacho chip, but filled with red Nacho bits, cheese, and ground beef. The main issue here is the Nacho bits overwhelm the cheese, which is what I consider the main component of Nachos. When I get Nacho's shit is like cheese soup with little nacho bits. This mess is extremely dry, and notoriously barren of cheese. Still is was $1.40, so I can't complain too much. I'll give her a 5/10.
I have a picture of what I ate at the continental breakfast at Red Roof Inn, so here's a review why not ? The blueberry bagel was awful, it was cold, dry and hard. Even smothering it in cream cheese couldn't save it for me. My friend at the other half, because he doesn't believe in throwing it away to mock children in Africa like I do. The bagel was a solid 3/10. Booooo. The apple danish was okay, it's extremely hard to screw something like that up though. I'm sure they bought them from B.J.'s like my dad does and served them to guests. They don't get a score due to being generic. The blueberry muffins were the best part, but they were tiny, and overwhelmed by the poppy seed muffins 3:1, so i couldn't get many without fingering every goddamn muffin on the tray. They were trying to keep the good parts from me! The apple juice was cgood, but every other juice on the machine was watered down or empty. Fuck you neckbeards, I need that juice more than you do! Overall I shall rate it a 6/10, I once stayed at a hotel that gave me free yogurt and waffles, it's hard to top that.
Now for some weaboo snacks fun! they had such variety, how could I not buy so much ? Lets get the train running with the best. The Ramunes!
For those of you not in the know, Ramune is a carbonated drink with a marble blocking the drink hole that must be popped out using a mini nipple included on top of the bottle. They're over priced, but more importantly, extremely Japanese. So how do they taste ? The Hawaii blue tastes like a melted blue Popsicle, orange tastes like watered down tang, and the Pre- Cure or Pretty Cure one tastes like sugar water. I honetly can't reccomend any of them, except as collectibles or novelty items. They aren't bad or anyhting, just small and $3.00 a bottle. Who can afford that in today's economy ? 4/10 for all three Ramunes!
These are Pokemon Fruit snacks! A steal at $2 a pack! And by steal, I mean for the seller, not me obviously. The packages showed Mewtwo and Evve, and i only got the lamer one naturally. There's a bunch of Evee']s and Pikachus, along with Pokemon that aren't generation one, so I don't give an iota of fuck who they are. There was no Charizard sadly.It just can't be helped. They fruit snacks are like every other one you see on store shelves, except gushers or those delicious Ocean spray ones. These are a mixture of sugar and high fructose corn syrup. Awesome. 10/10 cuz Pokemon.
Now time for the worst thing on the list, Brown Sugar Mochi! I've had green tea and purple flavors before, since those are sold at World Market, but never this variation. Brown sugar is delicious, and brown is the color of Chocolate! What could go wrong ?
First off, these leak powder everywhere. Second they taste like a mixture of old coffee, and flour. There may be a hint of brown sugar mixed in, but i didn't taste it. These are Not GOOD in any regard. I eneded up feeding them to my hobo dog, she loved them. Then again she eats cat turds and my mom's cooking so I am not surprised. Brown Sugar mochi- 2/10. Seriously, the package is slamming, why can't the food live up to that standard?
Finally are these kit things. I thought they were marshmallow doughnuts and gummy sushi, and technically they are, but you have to make you own! It's a creation kit! That's what I get for not reading the box. Then again, I can't read fucking moon runes. Why do the nutrition facts get an Englsih label, but not how to make them ? Fucking Japanese shits! Confusion/ 10
