Sayonara Mini

Said good bye to the Mini Cooper this week. I hate to admit it, but I'm a bit of a car geek. I was really excited when the new Mini Cooper was released a few years back and I had to get one. I know it's not very PC (or eco), but traveling by car is the way to go in Japan. You're able to see much more than you ever could with public transportation. We went everywhere in the Mini: the beach, around the Izu Peninsula, got lost on a mountain dirt road, up into the Japan Alps, even camping. Thanks for the memories.

Introducing Tokoji Seijin

I am very excited to announce the release of the first Cometdebris figure, Tokoji Seijin. The figure is a collaboration between Cometdebris and Gargamel, designed by Kiyoka Ikeda and myself, and sculpted by kaiju master Kiyoka. Tokoji Seijin is articulated at the neck, arms, and legs, allowing various poses. Tokoji Seijin will make its debut at the upcoming "Tentacles, Horns, and Scales" show at Thrash Out in Tokyo.

Jindaiji, Daruma, Soba Cake

Spent a part of the afternoon at Jindaiji as it was nice and sunny today. Took a walk, saw a lot of daruma, had some soba (buckwheat) cake, relaxed.
