Almost want to get the main team of five, or the 12 Zodiac suits... The problem is, there appears to be so many toys in the line that I wouldn't even know where to start...

Careful, I don't know anything about the series either and now I have 8 of them lol. And ya, there's like an endless amount of these guys. Literally 30+ years worth.

Since you like Hot Toys, if you just wanted to get one out of curiousity, look at the Myth Cloth Crown line which is 1/6 scale, but commands Hot Toys level prices. The first one in the series is incidentally Sagittarius Aiolos.

Oh man. That Sagittarius Seiya/Aiolos does look sick. I hate you for bringing that up to my attention; I've also been eyeing the 1/6 scale Tiger and Bunny figures as well, again despite not knowing anything of that series either.

I don't think I'd go for the 1/6 Saint Seiya figures, though; I'd rather not have them overshadow my Ronin Warriors. I do kinda want the main cast of five (Seiya, Shiryu, Hyoga, Shun and Ikki) in the regular scale, just to sort of "mirror" my display of Ronins. Now to figure out which ones are the "best" releases.

Oh right, Aiolos is the dude in the armour. Shows you how much I know about the show lol.

The 1/6 Wild Tiger lights up crazy; 16 button batteries. Big fan of the show, but man big price. I'm happy enough with the Figuarts version that are super cheap and easy to find now. I way overpaid for mine when they came out and were hard to find.

Ya, the 1/6 Cloths are maybe going too far. I wanted to get the main cast of five Saints too. I don't know about "best," but as far as I know the God Cloths are their most powerful (and ornate) forms, so that is what I went with.

I actually stayed away for a long time and what got me sucked in was the Hades God Cloth: link. Just had to get it!

Actually, 1/6 Wild Tiger isn't so bad; only about 11000-ish yen on Amazon Japan (14000 yen off!)

And you seem to be right on the God Cloths being their most powerful form; in fact, I just found out that there's the 10th Anniversary God Cloths that appears to have just come out in 2013 (September for Seiya, October for Shiryu, November for Hyoga, and Athena, Shun and Ikki to be released every month afterwards). Maybe I'll bite on those, and have a mirror display to my Ronin Warriors.

*EDIT* Just looked up the differences between the original God Cloth release from 2011 and the recent 10th Anniversary re-release of the God Cloths; the 10th Anniversary ones are colored differently, and consequently look weird. And are more expensive. 2011 releases it is then.

The boss lady went nuts on games these past two weeks.

Ah the reason why Monster High dolls have been on sale.

The boss lady found the new Monster High dolls last week as well. She told me that they weren't even suppose to be on the shelves yet. She found 3 out of 4 in that wave.

This morning...

Not sure what happened to the boss lady but... I like it.

Goodies for me today:

- [PSV game] Tearaway [MISP, from FutureShop online]
- [Wii-U game] Super Mario 3D World [MISP, from FutureShop online]

Whoa. Unexpected haul this morning.

- CPS-II Super Street Fighter II arcade A+B boards



I walk into a local arcade-parts-store looking for a wire-harness. Funny conversation later, I walk out with an authentic arcade board from 1993 of Super Street Fighter II through a KICKASS deal.

And thus begins another expensive hobby.
