Kotobukiya introduces Otacool, otaku bedrooms you're sure to envy

10:00 AM on 08.20.2009   |   Colette Bennett

Remember back when Danny Choo did that cool thing where he had toy and anime fans photograph their bedrooms and post them on his site? It seems it was a bit of a success (shocker!), and now Kotobukiya has lent their help to the project by creating Otacool, a collected photobook of otaku bedrooms all over the world. Trust me, you'll see some toys in this book that will make you froth at the mouth with jealousy!

You can check out the Otacool website here, or save a few pennies to place a preorder on the book, which comes out this December and will retail for $29.99. Several guest stars make appearances in the book, including Danny Choo himself, Amano Ai (author of Samurai Girl)and Les David (the world's most obsessed Indiana Jones collector!).

My bedroom will probably never look like this ... since I spread my toys all over the house! Bwahahaha! What do you think about having a bedroom crammed with so many toys?
