			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is an action figure of the creator of the <i>Resident Evil</i> series, Shinji Mikami.</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://zotaku.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/040411_shinji_mikami_figurine.jpg" alt="" title="Shinji Mikami Figurine" width="400" height="400" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13145" /></p>
<p>We usually see figurines of characters in video games or anime. We also see figurines of public figures like Michael Jackson. However it&#8217;s not everyday that a video game designer gets a figurine too. Man, I&#8217;m sure there are fans who can&#8217;t wait to get their hands on it XD. Oh did I mention he is shave-able?</p>
<p><s>The link that <a href="http://www.andriasang.com/e/blog/2011/04/01/mikami_action_figure/" target="_blank">andriasang</a> posted for ordering instructions got a 404 error. I tried looking around the <a href="http://tangogameworks.com/" target="_blank">official website</a> but their products page couldn&#8217;t load properly. If any of you are interested in this I&#8217;d say keep a close eye on that website.</s></p>
<p>Man&#8230; I should have seen this coming but I guess looking through news close to April Fools at 2am is not such a good idea. Thanks to user Hoshi_Akari for spotting this mistake!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Quite recently I started using <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Zotaku/125235202812" target="_blank">Zotaku&#8217;s Page on Facebook</a> to update the Figurine Release Dates. I don&#8217;t know how many folks actually use <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Zotaku/125235202812" target="_blank">Facebook</a> as compared to subscribing the feed to read Zotaku posts &#8211; but I am using Facebook to update the figurine release dates as it is easier and faster to update. Doing a whole new post with the alignment really takes up my time ~_~.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-12872 aligncenter" title="23031102" src="http://zotaku.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/23031102.jpg" alt="" width="499" height="431" /></p>
<p>So if you still haven&#8217;t check us out at our <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Zotaku/125235202812" target="_blank">Zotaku Page</a>, do like us now for more release dates update!</p>

Bought Vivio from <a href="http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/" target="_blank">Hobby Search</a>. Was lucky that Hobby Search was holding their <a href="http://zotaku.com/2010/06/16/hobby-search-paypal-campaign-shipping-50-off/" target="_self">50% off shipping campaign</a>. Her shipping was dirt-cheap. :D. Misaka Mikoto came from my local shop.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Once again, <a href="http://www.hlj.com/" target="_blank">HobbyLink Japan</a> is doing it again! They&#8217;re having 50% off Fedex shipping charges, so if you&#8217;re a victim of those expensive shipping rates, now&#8217;s the time to purchase more items! From now till <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>6pm on August 11, 2010 (Japan Standard Time; GMT+9)</strong></span>, just choose Fedex for your mode of shipment and you will get <span style="text-decoration: underline;">50% off your shipping</span>. All you have to do is:</p>
<ul>
<li>Place an order or orders for any in-stock and shippable items between 6pm July 29 and 6pm August 11, 2010 (Japan Standard Time; GMT+9).</li>
<li>During checkout, choose FedEx as your shipping method.</li>
<li>Enjoy a 50% discount off your FedEx shipping fees!</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-9247 aligncenter" title="30071009" src="http://zotaku.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/30071009.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="227" /></p>

<p>See the complete Tamiya &amp; More Sale list  		<a href="http://www.hlj.com/tamiya710sale.html"> HERE!</a></p>
<p>Check out the King-Size Sale list  		<a href="http://www.hlj.com/hljlist2/?SaleGroup=BIGSIZE&amp;fb=0&amp;Title=King-Size%20Savings%20on%20Oversize%20Items%21"> HERE! </a></p>
<p>Here are the several terms and conditions you need to take note before ordering ^^</p>
<div>
<ul>
<blockquote>
<li> Campaign is valid only for shippable orders placed between  				<strong> 6pm July 29 and 6pm August 11, 2010 (Japan Standard Time; GMT+9)</strong>.  FedEx shipping estimates on individual item pages will display the  non-discounted shipping estimates for single items as usual (the  discount will be applied after orders are processed for in-stock and  shippable items).</li>
<li> <strong> Only items shippable during the campaign period will be eligible  for discounted shipping. (Please note that an item that is in stock when  ordered but goes out of stock before your order can be filled will  					<em> NOT </em> be eligible for the campaign.) </strong> Orders placed for backordered or future release items will be shipped (<em>without </em> discounted shipping) when they become available, as normal.</li>
<li> All HLJ payment methods are fine. When paying by credit card or a  PayPal Billing Agreement, all in-stock and shippable items from your  eligible order(s) will be automatically shipped, and your credit card or  PayPal Billing Agreement charged as usual, in order to ensure that you  get the discounted shipping. When paying by regular PayPal, we&#8217;ll send  you a payment request e-mail as usual when your order is ready to ship  asking you to go to PayPal&#8217;s site and authorize the payment to us. As  usual, you will have two weeks to pay manually by regular PayPal (please  be aware that all orders may be cancelled if not paid for within two  weeks).</li>
<li> During this campaign customers can choose their preferred shipping method, as usual, but the 50% discount is  				<em> ONLY </em> for FedEx. All other methods are at their usual HLJ rates (EMS is still 20% off).</li>
<li> Our system manages only one shipping method at a time, so  				<em> please remember to change back to your preferred shipping method in your account after the campaign is over</em>. Otherwise, all your orders will continue go by FedEx, even after the campaign is over.</li>
<li> Aside from the 50% discount on FedEx shipping, all usual terms and conditions apply.</li>
<li> <strong> NOTE</strong>: If a customer has an overdue payment on an earlier  order, new orders will not ship until the overdue payment is completed.  Make sure you take care of any overdue payments before the campaign ends  to be able to take advantage of this offer.</li>
<li> <strong> NOTE TO CUSTOMERS IN EUROPE</strong>: Please be aware that FedEx  may charge a Customs handling fee, and that Customs may also charge  separate import fees. These may come as a bill arriving up to several  weeks after you receive your package. The customer is responsible for  these fees.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Leaks for figurines? That&#8217;s extremely rare. I seen many leaks for games and hardwares, but not figures. Anyway these <a href="http://zotaku.com/tag/k-on/" target="_self">K-ON!</a> figures have been leaked online &#8211; Nendoroid Yui and Mugi in their school festival outfits and Nodoka-chan getting the figma love from Max Factory.</p>

<p>Wow those folks who actually bought the <a href="http://zotaku.com/2010/01/16/nendoroid-k-on-mio-ritsu-live-stage-version/" target="_self">Nendoroid Mio and Ritsu Live Stage Ver.</a> won&#8217;t be able to resist this pair of Nendoroid Yui and Mugi! O.o.</p>
<p>The photographs look real, but until some official word is put up, I guess we can just keep our fingers crossed for the news to be true :P.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Attention folks who love sales and discounts! <a href="http://www.hlj.com/" target="_blank">HobbyLink Japan</a> is back with 70% off shipping. If you missed the <a href="http://zotaku.com/2010/06/08/hobbylink-japan-free-express-shipping-8-11-june/" target="_self">previous sale whereby you get free express shipping</a> (it only managed to last for a day due to overwhelming response ^^), this is the chance now! This time it will run for the full period from <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>June 22 2010 (10am JST) till June 24 (9pm JST)</strong></span>. It has commenced already, so don&#8217;t miss your chance!</p>
<p>Shipping is decided by you, unlike the earlier sale whereby mode of shipment was chosen by HLJ.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-7758 aligncenter" title="22061005" src="http://zotaku.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/22061005.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="227" /></p>
<div>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">In order to take advantage of this great free shipping offer, all  you  have to do is:</span></p>
<ul>
<li> Place an order or orders for any <span style="color: #ff0000;">in-stock and shippable items</span> between  10am June 22 and 6pm June 24 (Japan Standard Time; GMT+9).</li>
<li> During checkout, choose <strong>PayPal or set up a PayPal Billing Agreement</strong>.  Even if you don&#8217;t have a PayPal account yet, you can set that up during  checkout, too!</li>
<li> During that process, agree to pay for your order using regular  Paypal or a PayPal Billing Agreement.  Choose your preferred shipping  method, too!</li>
<li> Enjoy a 70% discount off your shipping fees!</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Important terms and conditions</span></div>
<div>
<div>
<ul>
<li> Campaign is valid only for orders placed and paid for with regular  PayPal or a PayPal Billing Agreement between <span style="text-decoration: underline;">10am June 22 and 6pm June  24 (Japan Standard Time; GMT+9)</span>.</li>
<li> <strong> <span style="color: #0000ff;">Only items shippable during the campaign period will be eligible  for discounted shipping. (Please note that an item that is in stock when  ordered but goes out of stock before your order can be filled will NOT  be eligible for the campaign.)</span> </strong> Orders placed for backordered or future release items will be  shipped (without discounted shipping) when they become available, as  normal.</li>
<li> With a PayPal Billing Agreement, all in-stock and shippable items  from your eligible order(s) will be automatically shipped, and your  PayPal Billing Agreement charged as usual, in order to ensure that you  get the discounted shipping.</li>
<li> With regular PayPal, we&#8217;ll send you a payment request e-mail as  usual when your order is ready to ship asking you to go to PayPal&#8217;s site  and authorize the payment to us. As usual, you will have two weeks to  pay manually by regular PayPal (orders may be cancelled if not paid for  within two weeks).</li>
<li> Customers can choose their preferred shipping method, as usual. All  usual terms and conditions apply to shipping.</li>
<li> Any previous orders already waiting for payment in your account will  prevent you from receiving the discounted shipping, unless paid for  before the end of the campaign so that your new order can proceed.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<p>It seems that they added another condition, that is you have to pay for your orders pending for payment first before your new order(f0r the campaign) will proceed.</p>
</div>
<p>Also, please note that HLJ has given 20% off their shipping fees for EMS for a certain period already, so the 20% off will still apply in this campaign. With the additional 70% off from this campaign, <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">EMS shipping will now be entitled to 76% off</span></strong>. You do the maths :)</p>
<p>What&#8217;s next? You have to click on to <a href="http://www.hlj.com/" target="_blank">HobbyLink Japan</a> now! XD.</p>
