I just got this new doujinshi with this really cute story that starts out with Kento, Ryo and Cye trying on each other’s armors and using the sure kills. Which is kind of a neat idea. And then, out of the blue, the Warlords appear like Sailor Moon villains and… STEAL THEIR PICNIC BASKET.
It is now one of my all time favorite dj stories. And I greatly approve of Cale’s picnic basket stealing outfit.
My blog is four years old today so here’s your present, pictures of the completed Ronin Warriors/Yoroiden Samurai Troopers scarf. Yaay!
Progress shots and charts can be found in the Ronin Scarf tag on my blog, and other information, colors, helpful links and direct links to the charts can be found in this handy dandy information post
I don’t have a chart up for the center symbol (the pentacle), but I will be happy to post it if you guys want it.
Thanks for sticking around. I’m looking forward to see what year five brings.
That is awesome!
I’ve got to say, I’d love to see something like this in a lanyard. (Of course I’d prefer just the Dark Warlord/Mashou armor symbols.) I mean how cool would that be? An easy way to find other fans of the series while at a convention.
Armor orbs came in the mail today! Obviously not licensed merch (as suspected), shipping in plain cardboard with newsprint wrapping. They didn’t match the kanji written on the boxes, which made us laugh. Came with some little glass stands, but they will need some museum putty to keep from sliding around in them. (Not putting in the case with the figures until I do that, because they weigh a ton and one rolling loose would break my case.) Colors are clear and bright in person (these are unedited pics and kinda dark), etching is nice and neat. (Not sure about the mark missing in Seiji’s kanji, but I’m putting that to a calligraphy style, and I’m sure whoever made these knows 900% more about kanji than I ever will.) Bigger than I imagine actual armor orbs to be! Nice pieces, good quality, look super swank all in a row.
Bottom line: I would have sold my grandmother for these in ‘98. Seventy bucks seems kind of a bargain, by that estimation.
