Good lord, it's awesome.
Height: 158 cm (how many inches is that?)
Bust: 83 cm
Waist: 57 cm
Hips: 83 cm
So is that a real sword? It would be cool to buy her a real one and prop her up on it.
Price: 400,000 yen = how much I got my used car for. Somehow I think the car is more
important for the time being, although far less attractive.
They should charge admission for you to see it. You can touch it for a quarter.
You'd have to be loaded, eccentric, and a total ST fan to get one of these. Two out of three
isn't bad. Too bad the first one is the most important.
The 1/1 Asuka they have looks pretty good, too. There's another 350,000 yen.
I hear the Japanese even have 1/1 dolls that are "fully functional" if you get my gist, that
secrete fluids and move. We're talking $10,000 range here. They sure don't do anything
halfassed.
