Tokyo Photos 3
The third part of the Tokyo Photo series where I aggregate all the latest photos I've been posting to my Instagram account ( http://instagram.com/dannychoo ). While this series is called Tokyo Photos, I'm overseas for business trips nearly every month so it normally includes photos posted abroad. If you are not into Instagram then you can always follow these updates on my Twitter, Tumblr or Facebook.
Today we continue off from last time - I'm about to head to Penang from Kuala Lumpur where we had Culture Japan Night Penang (the biggest so far) and then off to Bangkok for the Thailand Game Show. Then come back to Tokyo after being a month away then end up being down n out with illness ><

Amiami has PayPal issues, payment deadlines extended
It appears Amiami is having issues with receiving PayPal payments as of late, and as such, they've put out a little message letting folks know that they're trying to make sure it's fixed. Likewise, they expect an update sometime after this Monday, Jan. 28, and will be contacting customers to let them know what the news is.
In the meanwhile, they will also be extending payment deadlines for pre-orders affected by the issues, and for how long likely depends on the severity of the issue. Hopefully they can get the issue resolved, but have any of you been affected by this?

[NSFW] Yukihime available for pre-orders, nightmares
![[NSFW] Yukihime available for pre-orders, nightmares screenshot](http://www.tomopop.com/ul/28786-yukiheader.jpg)
At first glance, you might think Sengoku Rance's Yukihime looks like a fairly normal figure. A bit drugged, perhaps, but otherwise normal. Eventually, however, with interest piqued, you click through to take a look at Daiki Kougyo's latest work. It is then that you recoil, subject to the kind of horrors brought on by the most eldritch nightmares, a dripping, oozing abomination of melting flesh.
Yes, dear collector, this is Daiki Kougyo's interpretation of the innocent-seeming Yukihime. Artistic license and garage kit origins or no, some things just don't need to see the light of day. This, I believe, is one of those things. Still, if you're the kind of person who just needs a conversation starter, you can fork over a sizable ¥13,000 to pick her up in July.
