Overall loot picture
Very nice Touhou artbook. I'll keep a look out for it when I get back to Japan.
The problem, for me, with buying Touhou artbooks....you never know what you are buying. Unless I go into the store knowing what the cover will look like, there's no way for me to tell if it's a comic or an art collection.
Also, I remember seeing that Touhou 11 SA clearfolder/file. I just don't remember if I bought it. I ship so much stuff home that I don't remember half of what I've bought. ^^;
OMFG OKUU
*dies from jealousy*
Dude! So much awesome stuff, where in HK did you go to buy this stuff? I am going back to HK during the winter and I have been wondering if there are spots that I am not familiar with.
Also if you're looking for dollfies, a while back there was a post on here/DC where they had pics and locations of a spot that sold dollfies. But from what I remember, it was in Mong Kok. It was on the street that is behind Sino Center where they have all the electronic shops. It's in one of the shopping center, you have to take an escalator down to find it, once you get there, there are like 3 or 4 shops that sell nothing but dolls, clothes and the like.
Erm are you referring to CTMA centre by any chance? the place where the basement area only opens at 4 pm? i went there yesterday but found only blythes and other types of dolls, i did not find any dollfis/DD , unless my recognition abilities are that lousy.
All above things are found in Sino Center, basement included. basement packs music CDs, card games shop and this import stuff. They also have this shop(at basement and upper stories) where you rent a small space in the shop to sell whatever you want, that's where i got the super-difficult-to-find yugioh card
NO Not the CTMA center there is another store that really isn't near the other anime shop. It's across the street actually. I know that CTMA didn't have any as it was the first place I checked and yeah there are dolls but not the dollfies. The place I went to were pretty well stocked, had some DDs as well as SDs. Here is the link from DC hope it helps: http://www.dannychoo.com/post/en/20022/Hong+Kong+Otaku.html
Oh, I should pay more attention to those kinds of shops the next time I head back to Sino Center.
Hiya. Just wondering, but where have you been shopping around recently? Have always been curious about where people go to as I don't often hear people in this DC community going to Hong Kong, as if Hong Kong is a really exotic and unfamiliar place compared to Singapore (I am a Hong Kong resident but am not in Hong Kong very often orz).
As for Dollfies, I hear that you should try out DollHeart. Address is as followed:
Rm 801-802, 8/F Dundas Square, 43 H Dundas Street, MongKok, Hong Kong
Hope that helps.
