An unexpected surprise!!!

What I thought would just be another normal trip down to Little Tokyo turned out to be a lot more this time around. First off, for you to understand me better, I make a trip down there usually the 2nd to last and last weekends of the month to pick up copies of magazines, and any other additional things that catch my eye. Mainly 4 specific 'zines I pick up, 2 on one weekend and the remaining 2 on the next.

So for this week was the following. Nothing too out of the ordinary:That out of the way, what made this weekend extraordinary was what I found at AJ. What was included with some new shipped figures were some WonderFest specials!! The one that reeeeealy caught my eye was as follows:
Mio and Ritsu Nendoroids Live Stage Set! I can't believe that they actually had this there! And the last one as well!! (Although thinking about it, they were probably only able to catch 2 or 3 of them) It may have been a bit pricey, a big hit on my budget. Calculating it out though think of a price for 2 nendoroids, 2 di:stage basic sets, a specialized theme set, it being a limited item, and the effort getting it here, it may have been worth the price. Happy and sad at the same time b/c I was able to get it, but most likely I will not open it up.

If you were wondering, the other WonFes figures I noticed were the Saber Lily Distant Avalon (the one w/o the armor), and several Touhou 1/6 scale figures. Sorry no pics, AJ's rules and I respect that. I would've liked to pick up one of them also, Flandre Scarlet, but the K-on! Nendoroids and even one of these would've been sooooooooooooooo big of a hit on my account (each of the touhou figs were no less than $160).

And one other item I noticed was the Touhou Reimu figma, which was another surprise, but I wasn't ready to spend roughly 6 normal figmas worth for one of her.
