Photos of new stuff:

* Akira Battle Damage Garage Kit. Neat.
* Complete set of the 1998 Trading Card series.  Very Cool, especialyl considering the difficulty of trying to assemble such a set.  (I had just 22 of these cards before, and I'll be listing them for sale soon.)
* Akira Training Doujinshi. A short set of eight black and white full page panels of Akira in ecchi poses.  So rare even the seller doesn't know the artist (and not written anywhere in the manually-assembled book.
* MIKI-chan To Asobou #0.01, #0.02, and #0.03. Kachiku put together some CDs of his artwork. I already have the original art, but since these are new and reproducible, I had to get them for my collection.

I've still got the massive load of telecas from the October shipment still to scan, so my new ones for this month aren't here either.  I only got six telecas this time (mostly RSR related and none of them rare.)  I'm still working on the teleca library - hoped to have it ready over the holidays but looking unlikely.

New stuff this week!  A very small shipment from Japan this time, as January is typically very bare on the buyer's market due to Golden Week and other holidays.

For me:
* Raika Garage Kit (unassembled)
* 3 posters: GTB, Lanjerie Violet, and Shine
* Original Akira Wrestling Outfit Cel artwork
* A series of 5 cel proofs: Raika, Cyomi & Milfy, Gel, Fauzen, and Roid
* And four new telecas, none of them especially rare though.


For you:
* Akira and Asuka character posters
* V16 Rise Girls Siesta Poster (hawt!)
* VIPER Digital Illustrations Four and Five
* Loss or Gain Doujinshi

Each of these is now available on the For Sale page.

Not my scans.  Got them online somewhere a few years back.  These are two of the twelve pages of RSR content.

* The other VIPER Anniversary Teleca Set; I also got three more loose telecas
* VIPER-GTB character design sheets - these show up on some of the pages of the VIPER-GTB artbook; might have to scan these some day
* An F40 Preview and F50 Ad from Japanese magazines (but don't know which ones)


And some new stuff for sale:
* Yet another copy of my bestseller, the wonderful VIPER Rough Book ($32)
* A full set of the five VIPER V Series manga, which becoming harder to find. ($18 each or $75 for the full set)

* Anniversary Teleca Set - I already had this set, but had to buy both to get the one I needed. ($18, 25% discount for combining)

I also lowered the prices a few bucks on the Sogna Anthology Comics book and the VIPER Typing game, now that I've brought in second copies of those. All of these are now available on the For Sale page.

More fun stuff:

VIPER-GTB D.G.P Figurine Set
* Neato. Before I found these I thought the GTS set was the only one around.  Arguably in my top 10 favorite items in my collection now.

Akira Life-sized poster
* Not kidding. The poster is gigantic - about 6 feet tall (190 cm)  Unfortunately its in poor shape, with numerous wrinkles, creases, and rips. But its so rare (another Not For Sale piece from the Showroom) that I had it have it.

1999.12.26 Teleca Set
* If you like the RSR Teleca, I've listed my other copy of this one on the For Sale page.

No. I'm not sure visitors would approve.  They stay rolled up in mailing tube (though I wish I had one of those large poster books to put them in instead)

Another NEW VIPER DAY earlier this week.  I got seven new telecas, but more importantly, these two beauties:

I got some new things to sell on the webpage, too, but haven't taken photos yet.  I got in a copy of most PC98 games (including BTR with the bonus CD single), complete sets of VIPER Digital Illustrations 1 and 3, Sogna Official Illustrations IV (with obi!), and a sealed copy of the VIPER-F50 Demo.  Contact me if you're interested in purchasing any of these before the general public gets a chance at them.

Didn't know PVC figs were stored in humongous VHS tape cases back then.

Neat.

That would be one huge VHS tape.  The cases are about 15" x 10".  (The figures are 1/4 scale, or about 15-16" tall)

Not a big update for me on Friday - all I got was a new doujinshisoft, Lightning Heroine 2, and a pair of telecas. Pickings are slim around Golden Week, which feel right in the middle of this order period.

Fair time to get big discounts though, which I can now pass along to you!
* Guruguru Sentou $18
* D3-BOSS 0.5 $15
* METAL BOX GTB $15
* DEAD END $15
* VIPER Fan Book $36, now a complete set with the trading cards!
* VIPER Digital Illustrations 2 $16, or the full set of five (all complete with obis, reg cards, and inserts) for $65
* V6 PC98 3.5" diskettes $18
* V6 RS 3.5" diskettes $20
* V8 PC98 3.5" diskettes $18
* GTS PC98 5" diskettes $24, complete set with the "voice mail" package

Plus, a ton of new trading cards.  Not actually new per se, as these were from my old almost-complete set. One of my regular trading partners recently traded me a full set, so I now have a single duplicate of most cards, and multiple duplicates of many others.  I have the desirable Miki and Asuka foils for sale now, as well as popular Carrera, Mercedes, Ratty, Raika, and chibi character promotional artwork cards.


If you want these or need more info, contact me.  These will go for sale to the general public later in the week (big site update forthcoming)

Pictures of some of my recent acquisitions.  This goes back to before Christmas; just now getting around to taking photos and stuff.

Cyber-Arms Val-kaiser 5" diskettes
* This is Silence's game that came out about the time Sogna started, so it has basically the same staff as all the early M.I.N/Sogna stuff.

GTS RS 5" diskettes
* The only Japanese VIPER game that was missing from my collection.

Complete official Trading Cards set
* I had 61 of these, but found a trading partner willing to trade their full set for some of my for sale items.  All the old cards will soon be listed for sale on the site.

Several full page M1-era magazine ads: 1 2 3 4

Lightning Heroine 2 doujin-soft
* Because the world never has enough Cala pictures

Do people actually rip out single page magazine ads and sell them individually?

And what's so RS about Viper GTS RS anyway?

Yes, I've bought a few on Yahoo! Japan Auctions.  But they never fetch anything so I hardly ever see any of them on sale - when I do, its usually in a huge batch of which I might throw away 90-95%.  I'd rather have the whole magazine myself (which can be worth something on Yahoo), but the Japanese don't have as large of houses as we do so they dispose of "extra material" more easily.  But these four ads I actually got from my French trading partner (along with Valkaiser and the trading cards.)  I presume he got them in that condition.


And what's so RS about Viper GTS RS anyway?

Original PC98 versions of V6, V8, V10, and GTS did not have voice.  RS adds voice.  That was a pretty big deal in 1994/1995.

This week's fun stuff:

* Raika 1/5 Garage Kit (the one where she's sitting)
* Asuka & Miki Underwear Poster (see dictionary entry for "hawt")
* Rise Girls "Squeezing" Poster (I want in on that)
* Paradice Chibi Characters Poster
* Showroom Flyer
* Lightning Heroine 3
* Lightning Heroine 4

I tried to get Lightning Heroine 1 as well to complete my set, but someone outbid me for it :(

Thanks again to Moquin for helping me get the three posters.

Those posters look fairly sizable and look brand new. Nice find.

I know it doesn't exist, but i would kill for a PVC statue of Cala, who i would argue has the most elaborate and stylish design of all the Viper women.
