3-D Land update and other random things...

Happy Easter.

An appropriate image for this snowy Easter day, yes?

The CLAMP in 3-D Land homepage has updated with the larger images of the 3rd group of figures. (the page coding looks a little incomplete as of this moment) Anyway, Vampire Fay is the special figurine possible for those who buy box sets 1 through 4. There will be a special figure for those who buy 1 through 8, but that one hasn't been revealed yet.

And if you still haven't gotten enough of Okimono, Yonmiuri has their article with Mokona here.

And, the Tsubasa artbook has started to show up for preorder at several online international and usa-based shops. (beware of 75% or more markups.)

Links? Links? You're adding lame spoiler posts but no artbook links?

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

akadot and nippon export. both i do not recommend buying from. thus, the no links and warning. for some reason, it won't show up on amazon.jp

[oryssein.livejournal.com]

No, I refuse to buy anything from Akadot. When a random garbage NA "publisher" decides to "license" a yaoi series, they remove the Japanese editions from their website, a practice which I actually find morally offensive. Also, they're horribly overpriced, they overpimp domestic products, and they suck. I've never gotten anything from Nippon Export. I'll take your word for the store's badness.

I've been stalking Amazon Japan every weekend, and I can't find it there, either. I also checked YesAsia. No dice. Weeping, weeping.

Also: SPOILER POSTS?

spoiler posts

you mean you don't love them?

...muwhahahaa

don't worry about the artbook. every store will have it in another week or so. anyway, 80 pages is kinda lame (half the size of the x artbook). i'm sure they'll have at least another 10 artbooks by the time tsubasa is done.

Are the special figurines available only through mail-ins in Japan or something? I plan on buying all of the 3-D Land sets, but I remember the special figures for Clamp no Kiseki were only available to Japan...

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

correct.

some ppl have been using internet connections with those living in japan. maybe you know someone who can mail the stuff in and receive it??? or maybe it'll show up on ebay??

[celesse.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid I don't know anybody in Japan who could do it for me, unless a bidding service I use is willing to. I can always try eBay too, but I remember the Kiseki special figures went up into the hundreds on there @__@;;

Thanks!
