Kaiju For Japan

Yesterday, Japan was hit with a huge 8.9 Earthquake and following that they were hit with a Tsunami which wiped out cities and with the reports of lives lost and lots of people still missing. Last night, we watched in horror as our nightly news aired live footage of the Tsunami rushing through the farm lands and taking out anything in its path. Japan has been feeling many, many aftershocks. Many countries in the Pacific Ocean all had Tsunami Warnings issued from Indonesia, Philippines, Australia, Hawaii, and the West Coast States of the U.S.

In California, there was some damage from what we know so far in Santa Cruz at the Boat Yard where all morning on the news it showed how powerful the waves were that it broke and damaged docks and sent boats floating adrift into other boats and hitting them, capsizing or floating out into the Ocean. There was also an incident near the Klamath River in Northern California where 3 men went to take pictures of the Tsunami this morning and got swept out to sea. 2 of the men were able to swim back but 1 is still missing at this time.

Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers goes out to everyone in Japan in this difficult and tragic time.

Toy2r is releasing their 7" Qee Transparent Bear in May. Limited to 100pcs and will cost you $59.95. Here's the description from Toy2r.

"Toy2R proudly introduces the new 7" Clear Qee Bear. Re-engineered with new arm articulation, the Qee can rotate its arms in a full 360 degree circle and point out at a full 90 degrees from its body, giving the figure a bigger range of motion. Customizers will enjoy the freedom of movement as well as the ability to remove the head, arms and legs for easy access to paint or fill the inside of the Qee - bringing a whole new level to custom platform figures."

WOW! Now this sounds pretty amazing looks like it will be way easier to customize (well for me anyhow) and the ability to paint inside it too. Looks like I may need one of these.
