In-progress Billy DIY dollhouse "Naniwa's skewer shop"
Well, the Billy dollhouse is still a work-in-progress. I've completed the building and the yatai (street food) cart, as well as the small outdoor counter.
But there's NO FOOD! I'll be working on that over the next few days.
Yup, bringing the scale to 1:18 was a good idea. Here's what it looks like with figures: Boss Fight Studio skeleton, Pose skeleton, and manning the yatai- a "125mm full-action Kamen Rider SAGA Kuuga" figure, fresh from Japan. 23 points of articulation!
That series is incredibly popular- I kid you not. It sold out practically before my eyes. I got one of these figures at Gachapon Kaikan in Tokyo in a gachapon machine for 500 yen ($4.35), and they were sold out only 3 days later. They were still available at a bank of gachapon machines near my hotel, and also at the Narita airport. I have 3, and probably should have bought more.
The samurai armor suit is another gachapon. I initially saw it while walking down Chuo Dori in Akihabara district, Tokyo. I didn't backtrack, because I found another machine at the massive store, Yodobashi Akiba.
The Japanese must be laughing their heads off at the mass-market crap we have in toy aisles, like bobbleheads and overpriced 5 POA crap figures. Just look at what they have in Japan coming out of oversized gumball toy machines on steroids, in comparison!
