Rei Ayanami from Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo

written on March 21, 2018 by Tier

Yamato never got a lot of love from figure collectors. Most of their products aren’t particularly well-remembered and nobody seemed to mourn their demise; indeed, I don’t think many people even noticed, nor was it really acknowledged when they briefly … Continue reading →

written on December 25, 2017 by Tier

Cleric from Bikini Warriors (NSFW)

written on December 14, 2017 by Tier

My interest was piqued when Bikini Warriors was announced, being that I have a thing for scantily-clad female battlers. My enthusiasm was dampened when I learned that each episode would be less than five minutes in duration; I anticipated that … Continue reading →
