That time of year is just around the corner. We drag out the Christmas tree, Hannukah candles, or what have you, and celebrate looking forward to the new year, being together with loved ones, or maybe just hoping we get something under the tree. I know this year is rough in terms of the holidays, at least for most Americans like myself, so maybe this will make shopping for that last minute gift for the nerd or weeb in your life a little easier.

We're officially in October! I thought what better way to celebrate the coming holiday with reviewing a spooky themed collectible! In fact, I plan to review several items this month including the Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna Digivice (to celebrate the US Blu-Ray release), the official localization of the Kiki's Delivery Service novel (also newly released), and a video game review (I haven't decided yet which).
But you've come here for Pokemon! So, let's step into the spooky world of Pokemon with the Haunted Pokemon Village Gengar House Halloween Statue, exclusive to the Pokemon Center website! Hello everyone! I haven't had a chance to post the last two weeks due to evacuating for Hurricane Laura. I'm happy to report I'm back home now (and my collectibles are safe, too) and I will be resuming my usual weekly schedule next week. Times are hard for all of us right now and I will be moving in a year, so I have listed a lot of video games and anime collectibles on my Ebay. I have a ton of positive feedback and will respond if you have any questions. Below is a preview of the items I have for sale! CHECK THEM OUT HERE Thanks again guys! Please check back for more reviews and advice next week!
Sometimes in collecting we run into bootlegs -- unofficial merchandise, sometimes mass produced --and it can be a disappointment or a morbid curiousity. You may also run into reproductions: fakes made to look identical to the original.
These can come in a variety of collections: plush, figures, and video games. Today, I'm going to cover video game bootlegs / repros. Are they good? Bad? How has it effected the industry? Where can you get them? Read on to find out! Maybe you're new to collecting or found a series you're passionate about? Where would you begin? Here's a top 10 list of shops to start your collection!
