Welcome to This Week in Tomo, where two editors geek out about the toys they want.
This week there are quite a few things that Kristina and I found irresistible. Actually, we both got a couple of our bigger wishes granted, all thanks to a garage kit and Kotobukiya. There isn't a lot of Wonder Festival and SDCC post talk since this was recorded Friday, but we a couple of things we talk about was seen on the site while the dual festival insanity was going on. We also talk about Tomopop meet-up plans at Otakon, so if you're going to rather large Baltimore convention, you'll want to give this week's video a peek.
Hit the jump to watch the goods!
A note to Otakon attendees, Kristina and I will be recording This Week in Tomo at the con, so if you want in on the video be sure to meet us at the Starbucks by registration. Look for the Tomopup and the large hispanic dude wearing a Doctor Who shirt!
ooooh my gosh I went to see the Atlanta symphony orchestra when they did Distant Worlds and let me just say, who ever is going to the Baltimore one, you will LOVE IT!! Wish I could be there to join in all the festivities too! Have fun for me! :D
Oo Surprised that you're into that Rin. Guess it really goes to show how widely opinions can differ, lol.
I seriously doubt we'll see a Nintendo-franchised bishoujo, doubly so given the appearance of these things. Would rather see them do a Samus than a Zelda anyway =p
idk like the look of the PA Kai Cammy. She's my fave female from the franchise so far, but there's just something I don't like about it. Then again, have not seen ANY Cammy figures I've been enthusiastic about. Revoltech hasn't done one yet but doubt they will anyway and, should they, would likely look like crap (although the Chun Li was okay). Also liked Ibuki. Picked up her SOTA release, which was so-so but kinda awesome for having the raccoon.
Will you guys be bringing us video coverage of Otakon?

E3 is going on right now (as this goes live, Sony's press conference is one hour away), so it's only fitting that Custom Made Monday dives into some video game customs this week! Well, we did last week, too, also using E3 as ...
It's hard to believe, but Cavey is already three years old and to celebrate the occasion creator Holly Stanway (aka A Little Stranger) held a party to celebrate. More than just a chance to eat, drink and be merry though, this was also a chance to see the 41 custom Vinyl Caveys produced specifically for the event.

Welcome back to the feature that lets you know how we want to spend our hard-earned ducats. That's right, it's the monthly DO WANT! Sorry we're a couple days late, as we had to prep for the usual April Fools shenanigans. ...
Everybody has a favorite Batman rogue. Usually that favorite is along the lines of the Joker, Riddler, Harley Quinn, Two-Face, or Catwoman, although there's also the occasional Mr. Freeze fan. My choice might be a little less...
When us Western folks think about figure scenes in the East, we tend to invariably end up thinking about two main places. The place where they all came from, Japan and probably the second-largest community in the area, Singap...
Oh, it's the end of the month you say? Well, that can only mean one thing: it's time for DO WANT! This month, we have several editors agreeing on one particular figure, which hasn't happened in a while. Which one is it? Well,...
Welcome back again to Custom Made Monday, our spotlight on things going on in the world of custom figures. This week's rundown is a little bit shorter than last week's, but it's also just as impressive. In part, that's becaus...
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! To show our appreciation for you taking time out of your day every day to come visit us, our editors got together and made a small gallery. We figure it would be impractical to mail out f...
