Buying it for retail value makes sense.』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (What the Fuss? Momiji) 『I may have gone off the rails with an obvious display of impulsivity here, but there's nothing I can do about it. I have a crush on Momiji Dolls and, as I explained here, I have a problem with instant gratification. So, once I happened upon these delectable, three-inch pegs of lovliness, I bought several. Here's how it happened:
Over the years, I've seen Momiji Dolls in random places like the Uncommon Goods catalog. Momiji are little Japanese dolls with a message inside. They're immediately adorable, in same way that ducklings and puppies are adorable, and every time I come across Momiji, my brain automatically attempts to find a reason why I would need one. I should also mention that they are roughly $18 each, so most reasons I conjure are instantly trumped by the price tag.
These scrumptious little dolls seem to be springing up with more frequency of late, so last week, I went to the Momiji website and took a look. There are various collections - Randoms and Celebrations are the most prominent - and they have super-duper-silly messages stuffed inside of them. I put some in my cart and after doing a quick calculation, decided that they were too expensive.
Sidebar: After a cursory web search, it appears that these dolls are manufactured by a UK company. This reduces the funny quotient by a smidgen for me because I know that the hilariously poor message translations are feigned to some degree. For example, the message that accompanies Laughing Momiji is "How do you be so funny? I don't know where it comes from but it is always making me laughing. I like integral calculus and treasure hunts." Way funnier if you're Japanese and using machine translation like Sanrio, the Hello Kitty people. Still, the effort is good, so I'll go with it.
Okay, so last week I was going to buy some Momiji, then experienced a moment of lucidity and closed my browser. Then YESTERDAY, I was perusing the newest Tea Collection catalog. You know Tea Collection, the super cute kids' clothing with a Japanese twist. The latest catalog has little tidbits of Japanese culture and history throughout. And sure enough, one of the tidbits is about Japanese Kokeshi dolls. No matter the origin, which is up for debate, these dolls are part of Japanese history and artistry and are quite cool. Plus, they now have an official name and I can purchase them in the name of art or custom or start collecting them or something.
So, I went back to [...] and bought ten. YES TEN as gifts for all of the girls for Christmas with a few extra for Leighton. I bought Dancing Girl, Funny Girl, Giggles, Silly Billy, Poppet, Soul, Lucky, Little Star and Party Girl. Oh, and I bought a holiday doll - Blushes - as a Hostess gift for a cocktail party next week.
I am certainly pleased with my purchase and if you're in the market for a cute and quirky gift to give, Momiji fit the bill.
Jen Freeman Owner/Writer The Daily Fuss』 『Lucky. IÊam wishing you so lucky. for this day and all the days. I like morris dancing and onomatopoeia. Konichiwa!! Momiji Japanese Friendship Dolls are loaded with Tokyo cool! Hand painted, each 3 inch doll has a space inside for a handwritten secret message. Turn them upside down and find a tiny card inside the base to write your own greeting. Comes in a re-sealable plastic bag with a special button pin with the name of the Momiji Doll on it. Momiji Dolls are the contemporary adaptation of the original Kokeshi folk art dolls made of spare wood by Japanese farmers. They were given as tokens of loveand friendship to family and friends. Today s designers incorporate elements from traditional kimonos and origami, as well as contemporary themes, including manga, anime, fashion, and pop stars. Dolls are continually created and retired, making them delightful collector s items. Impossibly cute, each one of these collectible dolls from the Land of the Rising Sun has it's own unique personality. So why send just a card when you can send Momiji!』

Usually ships in 24 hours 『This CD of choral music by Poulenc is a stunning study of textures; every so often you may think you hear an instrument, so flavorful are the timbres of the voices and the manner in which Poulenc uses them. This is serious music--"Un soir de neige" and "Figure humaine" were composed during World War II--and the subjects of the poems can be bleak, but they are endlessly inventive in their harmonies and rhythms. The St. Francis prayers are for male voices only and their dark hue offers moments of peace and solitude. And the CD ends with a drinking song asking the male voice to descend to great depths in a thoroughly jolly fashion. The Sept Chansons, from 1936, have Debussy-like moments, and the alternation of soli and chorus just adds to the colors. The performances are perfect, with the German RIAS-Kammerchor singing with impeccable French diction under Daniel Reuss. An unusual, valuable, enchanting disc.--Robert Levine』 『TITLE: Poulenc: Figure Humaine』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Fantastic Music) 『This music has it all. Great song writing, fantastic musicians, great vocals and unbelievable rhythm. I have been listening to it non stop since I got it.』
(Can't stop lisening.) 『Once in a while you 'discover' an artist or band that completely takes you by surprise. These guys did. I play the cd at home, in the car and I even bring it along and bother people to play it at their place. If you're looking for a funky cd that has it all, stop right here. These songs are creative and they groove big time. My only regret is that they don't play in Europe any time soon.』

(This Band Rocks) 『If you have not checked out TTS Then you are missing a lot. The first track"Medicine"tells it all. You guys have to play in the midwest soon I got to see these guys live !』
(Shoe to the Face) 『One word......"GROOVE"Boston's finest brewing up a batch of funk and soul. The album is incredible, the concerts are phenomenal. Check these guys out.』 『It's got rhythm, and it's got music. This 10-song album from Boston's Two Ton Shoe features material that's catchy and tight, with the serious groove so instrumental to good funk. Bassist Jeff Gilman and drummer Dave DiCenso are to be commended here, especially on the up-tempo tunes like "Medicine" and "Far from Blue," where the rhythm hops, skips, and jumps without ever losing the time. Some of the slower songs don't work quite as well, though "Hollow Man" is a notable exception and an excellent closer for the CD. The crispness of the sound is great; there's no muddiness here at all, and the listener can hear every note. Despite the occasional unevenness, this is a very strong recording, and one looks forward to hearing more from this band.--Genevieve Williams』 『It is this concoction, also described as a grand mix of '70s funk and '90s attitude and an impressive contrast of power and subtlety that has pushed Two Ton Shoe onto the national radar screen of the music industry.』 タイトル『 Design With The Figure >

The story held many items that I had never seen or heard of before, including clips from her movies - many of which I missed. All in all, a very good Biography of a great ice skater and a woman who had it all, but was controled by other people - not unusal I guess for a STAR who becomes a star as a child. She certainly was the Queen of the Ice!』
(Sonja Henie - Queen of the Ice) 『Excellent presentation of the life of one of the most famous and talented skaters to move the Olympics to movies. Thoroughly enjoyed the clips of her life and the memories it evoked.』 『Narrated by Cliff RobertsonThe daughter of a fur wholesaler, Sonja Henie received her first pair of ice skates when she was six. Eight years later, she was the Norwegian Skating Champion. At 15, she would win the gold medal in Skating at the 1928 Olympics, thus becoming the youngest Olympic skating champion a record that stood for 70 years. She repeated as champion in 1932 and 1936. A ten-time World Champion Women's Figure Skater, she was the first skater to parlay athletic success into a lucrative career. In 1936 she turned professional and began touring with her own ice show, and soon after caught the attention of Hollywood. She signed with 20th Century Fox and played an ice skater inOne in a Million(1936). The film was a great success, and Sonja was now a movie star.
Sonja's popularity suffered briefly when a photograph was published showing her shaking hands with Adolf Hitler at the 1936 Olympic Winter Games in Berlin. She continued to make a series of light romantic comedies throughout the late 30s and early 40s. More a testament to her skating skills and physical attributes, the films were profitable and her popularity soared. Films likeOne in a Million, Thin Ice, andWintertimehelped bring financial success for the Hollywood Ice Revues that she produced and starred in every year and which drew huge crowds across the United States. Sonja became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 1941. In the mid-40s her movie career tapered off, but she continued skating until her retirement in 1960. An astute businesswoman, Sonja was one of the ten wealthiest women in the world when she died of leukemia in 1969. Sonja was inducted into the World Figure Skating Hall of Fame in 1976 and the International Women's Sport Hall of Fame in 1982.

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (This DVD is AWESOME!!! (N.E. Patriots fan's review)) 『This DVD is great!!! I would most of the time be watching the post season such as when the Patriots beat the Rams in the Superbowl. The Superbowl of '01 season took place in Louisana Superdome. The Patriots beat the Colts twice in 2001, I remember the Patriots use to play agianst the Colts twice a year.
The NFC teams the New England Patriots were against during 2001 season: Away Home -Atlanta Falcons 11/4/2001 - St. Louis Rams 11/18/2001 -Carolina Panthers 1/6/2002 - New Orleans Saints 11/25/2001
When the Patriots beat the Rams, The Rams were suppose to win because they were tougher than the Patriots. Actually the Patriots won the Superbowl. The Patriots might've ended up playing better than how they did during the season, the Patriots played okay at the beginning of the 2001 season.
In the past before 2002, the Patriots didn't do well expect for when they beat the Colts twice such as in 1990.
This when the Patriots won the Superbowl for the first time.
The most important game of this DVD is the Superbowl.』
(Deceptive Advertising) 『 I was looking for a DVD of Superbowl XXXVI. The description of this DVD gave the impression that it contained the whole game. Instead, it gave a recap of the season with footage of numerous games and about 10 min. of the superbowl. This was not what I wanted and was very disappointing.』
(an amazing moment of history, sadly not remembered very well on this DVD) 『As a long suffering Pats fan since birth, we had seen all the misery of losing, losing, losing and finally getting to 2 superbowls and hey.....losing! That all changed in New Orleans 2001 and what a feeling that was. WE FINALLY WIN !!!! sadly this incredible moment of glory and joy is not commemorated very well on this DVD. It's far too short for starters and there isn't full coverage of the superbowl. why?! I know it was a dull game but we still won our first superbowl ever. Why not the full game play by play? I also found the music pretty irritating and the extra's were minimal and lousy. If you were lucky enough to have taped the game as it was on TV that night, stick to that and don't waste your money on this trash.』
(Relive New Englands First Super Bowl Championship) 『New England Patriots fans will no doubt want to add this Super Bowl XXXVI DVD to their collection. This highlights package of the 2001 NFL football season culminated in the Patriots winning their first league championship under difficult circumstances.
As with all other NFL championship DVDs, this is a little over an hour long highlights package of every New England Patriots regular season and playoff game, along with even more extensive highlights of the New England Patriots exciting, dramatic victory over the St. Louis Rams, 20-17, in Super Bowl XXXXVI.
This video includes many interviews, sideline sound bites, and locker room scenes throughout the season, which really brings to life the players and coaches on this fabulous team.
While I always feel these video packages do not do a great job of highlighting the drama of specific games, including those in the playoffs, it does do a good of job of conveying the drama of this very interesting, unusual season for the Patriots.
First, many may forget the Patriots started out 0-2, and were only 5-5 at one point in the season. Few expected this team to go far, especially not to the Super Bowl.
Probably more important, the producers of this video did a very nice job of dealing with the quarterback controversy--or lack thereof--that emerged when Tom Brady took over for the injured Drew Bledsoe, the long time New England starter. Bledsoe suffered a severe chest injury in the second regular season game against the Jets. Once Bledsoe was cleared to play later in the season, Brady kept the starting job because the Patriots were winning and Brady was on a roll. This DVD includes in season interviews with both quarterbacks talking about their situation. While there was a lot more tension on the team than is seen in the video or that the Patriots have ever made public, Bledsoe must be given great credit for not tearing the team apart and ruining their chances of success. Given his long tenure as the starter and close relationship with the players on the team, he could have easily caused great dissension on the team and split apart the locker room. But he accepted his new role with professionalism, maturity, and dignity which should endear him to most Patriots fans. Bledsoe earned his Super Bowl ring through his maturity and his great play in the AFC Championship game against Pittsburgh when Brady twisted his ankle early in the game. This video does a nice job of highlighting and dealing with situation as the season progressed.
The video also does a nice job with the more extensive highlights of New England's playoff victories. The first, against the Oakland Raiders in the AFC Divisional Playoff game, 16-13, took place in a blizzard. This game featured the overturning of an apparent Brady fumble, under the now infamous "Tuck Rule," that would have cost the Patriots the game. The game also featured some of the most amazing kicking in ridiculously bad weather by Adam Vinateri.
The Patriots 24-17 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Pittsburgh featured sterling play by Bledsoe when Tom Brady went down with an injury early in the game, and a Troy Brown return of a blocked field goal that help seal the game for the Patriots.
Finally, of course, there are even more extensive highlights of the dramatic 20-17 Super Bowl victory over the St. Louis Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI on a last second field goal by Adam Vinateri. This was preceded by a gutsy, long drive by the Patriots with less than two minutes to go after the Rams tied the score late in the game. I still get tears in my eyes watching that kick sail through the uprights to secure our first Super Bowl victory.
The Special Features on the video are also nicely done. While I was disappointed the entire Super Bowl game was not on the video, the bonus material is quite worthwhile, even if the segments are a bit short.
The bonus features include "NFL Salutes America," showing player reactions to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks as well as the halftime show, featuring U2, which I frankly have never watched.
More interesting, and important to New England fans, are the three short segments about the team itself (about five minutes a piece). First, there is a segment on the 1976 Patriots, which many consider to be the most talented Patriots team ever, which was robbed in a playoff loss against the Oakland Raiders on a bogus roughing the passer call late in the game.
A second features one of New England's star players of the 1960s, Gino Cappelletti, who is now a broadcaster for Patriots game. And my favorite segment of all is on the tough, gritty Steve Grogan, the Patriots quarterback in the 1970s who was a role model for me as kid.
This video is highly recommend for New England Patriots fans.
Disclaimer: I am a die hard New England Patriots fan and am totally biased in this review.』
(Fantastic Way To Remember The Patriots 2001 Season) 『If you are a Patriots fan there is no way you cannot enjoy this DVD reliving the magical 2001 season, the "Snow Game", and Super Bowl XXXVI.
The only problem I have with this DVD is it's too short -- every Super Bowl DVD after this one has hours of footage instead of just an hour but you will NOT be disappointed with what is on this disc!!
**** HIGHLY RECOMMENDED』 『No one expected great things for the 2001 New England Patriots, and their upstart reputation persisted until the final seconds of Super Bowl XXXVI, when a winning field goal at long last established them as football's best. This rousing NFL Films production follows their entire season, beginning with a horrendous 1-3 record and the loss of quarterback Drew Bledsoe before they kept finding ways to win in a season that couldn't help but be emotional. Playing when America was attacked and went to war held a special meaning for the Patriots, who at one game paid tribute to teammate Joe Andruzzi's three brothers who work as New York City firefighters. The Patriots' postseason victories, including a memorable overtime upset in a snowstorm against the fearsome Raiders, are dramatically depicted. And 17 minutes of highlights from the Super Bowl game against the heavily favored St. Louis Rams are presented with all the devotion that only NFL Films can bring.--Robert J. McNamara』

(Most Entertaining Ski Video Ever!) 『Those that were disappointed that this wasn't 100% sick skiing footage need to take a chill pill, or get a sense of humour. Just the cover pic lets you know this is goofy movie so why take it so seriously.
The skiing footage is insane, but how much heli footage can you take? That's why they break it up with Saucer Boy and all of the innovative ways they incorporated the sponsors. How can you expect a serious movie about McConkey if you know anything about him?
I've watched this dozens of times, and still am amazed at the skiing, and still laugh my ass off every time.』
(There's Something Sick About Shane...) 『Too funny for words - our kids love it, and the White Rap is worth the price alone!
Oh yeah, the boy can ski too....』
(SWEETNESS!!!) 『Okay, this isn't the most innovative skiing video ever, but it covers important parts of freeskiing hisory and how a rebel skier helped revolutionize it. There's nothing sicker than a McConkey invert off of cliffs and the hugest switch fronts and backs i've ever seen. There is also a cool BASE jump in Canada at midnight with Olympic god Jonny Mosely as the get-away driver... Although most of the music in this is from Surfdog Records, it isn't all bad. And there's nothing funnier than watching a white [guy] try to break dance.』
(Agree with Edgy) 『I wish I had seen Edgy's review before purchasing this DVD. I was interested in a movie with skiing footage. This has about 25% ski footage, 25% base jumping, and about 50% stupid skits.』 『Extreme skier Shane McConkey is the protagonist of this affably oddball documentary that features some suitably spectacular footage of McConkey casually doing what most skiers can only fantasize about. There are interviews with McConkey, who comes off as the laidback dude one might expect, as well as interviews with his mother and a few friends (one of whom tells a funny story proving that "there's something wrong with McConkey"). And a few comic interludes, including McConkey's attempt to star in a music video, pop up. But the real point to this production is the skiing footage, which is uniformly spectacular. McConkey and others (including Olympic champion Jonny Moseley) go rocketing down absurdly steep mountainsides in footage shot from helicopters, and of course they make it all seem so effortless that you can almost forget how insanely dangerous it is. And speaking of bodily peril, McConkey is also seen flying off ski jumping ramps backwards and gleefully sailing through space. As someone quips, "his radness can't be quantified." Keeping with the athlete-as-outlaw theme, there are also segments on BASE jumping, in which McConkey and others are seen parachuting from bridges, tall buildings, and mountainsides. Some of the film's humor is strained, but this is for the most part an entertaining look at a character who just can't get enough downhill excitement.--Robert J. McNamara』 『Ten years ago, young renegade ski racer Shane McConkey quit his collegiate team to pursue a career in the small, unglamorous world of freeskiing. Through the '90s, McConkey battled the odds and the establishment as he put "fun" back in skiing. With an unprecedented manner of attacking mountains and a committed effort to appear ridiculous, McConkey opened the doors to a new way of thinking and skiing. As attention to his feats and antics blossomed, so did the sport around him. We've teamed up the raddest skiers of today with the past decade's most influential skier and biggest idiot. So sit back for a wacky, whirlwind tour through a man, a mind and a sport. You may never look at skiing the same way again. 60 minutes.』

Even if you do not get the other City sets this is a unique set that is totally affordable. Originally, I was put off my the City Sets since they seemed geared for boys who loved cars,trucks, and trains that this was an interesting twist in the series.

My Lesson guide is called "Heroes" and Abe Lincoln is the focus of the theme for this series. This book is a great information book written in language that students can enjoy and understand. I am using it for background information and to get examples for modeling how a biography can be written. The book tells about Abe as a young boy and all the experiences he went through. Children are able not only to read the level of writing, but also identify with some of the struggles Abe went through as a child. I enjoyed this book and my niece read it and liked it, also.』
(Great book) 『This is a wonderfully written biography about Abe Lincoln that is very accessible to young children. The emphasis on books and the role they played in shaping Abe Lincoln makes for a wonderful and meaningful read. The fact that Abe Lincoln was so absorbed in books as a young boy is a great example to young boys (and girls!) of today. The illustrations are also beautiful, helping to make this book a real winner.』
(Abe Lincoln, reading books moved him to excel) 『The first thing I noticed when looking for a children's biography book on Abraham Lincoln was Kay Winter's Abe Lincoln, The Boy who loved books. This book has wonderful pictures with vivid colors and kid-friendly portraits of Abe Lincoln as a boy. The illustrator, Nancy Carpenter, does a magnificent job bringing the book to life. Children of all ages will enjoy reading this book and realizing that a love of books, as Abraham Lincoln did, can change a persons life and move him or her to become a great person...maybe even the President of the United States.』
(Abe Lincoln) 『This is a wonderful biography written by Kay Winters about the United States 16th president, Abraham Lincoln. The vocabulary is kid-friendly, especially for children in grades kindergarten through second. In addition, the oil paintings on pastel can really enhance the reader's interest. Most importantly, the emphasis of how Abe Lincoln enjoyed reading, and used it to his advantage is a great encouragement for young readers!』
(A Fresh Perspective on Abe Lincoln) 『ABE LINCOLN: THE BOY WHO LOVED BOOKS is a delightful biography and a welcome addition to the body of children's books about our 16th President! With colorful, lyrical language, author Kay Winters tells the story of young Abe's boyhood from an important perspective, emphasizing at every turn his love of books, his passion for reading, and his eagerness to learn. Winters' narrative, beautifully supported by Nancy Carpenter's appealing illustrations, describes Abe as a "bookish boy" who practiced writing his letters in the dust, who loved spelling bees and spinning yarns, who carried a book in his back pocket even as he plowed, stopping at the end of each row to read a page. And at the end of the story, we find President Abraham Lincoln sitting by the fire in the White House...reading a book. As the book jacket says: He loved books. They changed his life. He changed the world. What I value most about this biography is that it gives young readers the opportunity to identify with a hero who is "bookish" and makes the connection between a love of reading and the empowerment of one person to change the world.』 『In a tiny log cabin a boy listened with delight to the storytelling of his ma and pa. He traced letters in sand, snow, and dust. He borrowed books and walked miles to bring them back.
When he grew up, he became the sixteenth president of the United States. His name was Abraham Lincoln.

(Couldn't Stop laughing) 『My 14 year old son received this as a Birthday gift - It is the funniest thing I've read in years! The forward was my favorite part. I would love to read an entire book written by that dragon! I had not heard of nor seen the web site, so I had no pre-conceived notions. I recommend for teens&adults alike.』
(Extremely Potent) 『:BE WARNED:
If you are not ready face the deadliness that is becoming a Ninja, this book will kill you 5 1/2 times before you flip the first page. Trust me I know, because I am currently writing this review in the special afterlife reserved for those with the privilege of being killed in a ninjaesque-manner (Amazon actually ships here too, neat!). I was not prepared, so I have paid the price for my failure. This truly is THE Ninja handbook.』
(Ninja Hilarity) 『I will keep this short and sweet; if you like ninjas, or are a ninja yourself, and you like hilarity, then you might like this book. Actually you will love it, I bought this for a good friend of mine and we went through it (note: don't be a genius like me and order it gift wrapped if you want to skim some pages...)and shared in ninja laughter. We almost killed some people because we were so impressed and happy with the book, but you will learn that happy is not one of the reasons a ninja kills. So check it out if you like ninja knowledge, and ninja humor, some slapstick and whole lot of hilarity.』
(Funny, but a bit long in the tooth) 『If you are a fan of the show, you will love this book. If you think Ninja's are cool and have any kind of sense of humor at all, you will like this book. If your a fan of pirates, this is not the book for you. With that said, this book really is good until the very end, where the humor feels like it was pulled from the ninja's rear end. I read quickly through the earlier chapters, laughing quite a bit at the monsters, ninja work sheets, and stories. Towards the end of the book I found it harder to read. The jokes were just not as funny, and the stories were less compelling. For the price, this is a great book if your looking for a laugh.』 『 Carefully consider the joy of your soft-headed ignorance before you begin to run, flip, and jump along the Ninja Path.
After much debate and in a spirit of morbid amusement, the International Order of Ninjas has chosen to produce The Ninja Handbook, the first-ever secret ninja training guide specifically designed for the non-ninja.
Most non-ninjas who handle these delicate, deadly pages will dieprobably in an elaborately horrific and painful manner. But whether your journey lasts five seconds or five days or (rather inconceivably) five years, all those who bravely take up this text and follow the tenets and trials laid out within will die knowing they were as ninja as they possibly could've been.
For the true of heart or the extremely lucky, this powerful and honorable manuscript contains such phenomenal ninja wisdom as:
How to create and name your very own lethal ninja clan
The proper weapon to use when fighting a vampire pumpkin
Why clowns and robots are so dangerous on the Internet
Easy-to-follow charts showing when to slice and when to stab
How to execute such ultra deadly kicks as the Driving Miss Daisy
Why pretty much every ninja movie ever made sucks
How to make a shoggoth explode using well-placed foliage
What the heck a shoggoth is and why youll need to make it explode
Death Aide certification
And much more ninjafied enlightenment on every shuriken-sharp page!
Remember: People do not take the Path, the Path takes people. 』

Usually ships in 24 hours Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (A good art book) 『I have purchased many of the How to draw manga books and a few from other how to art books. This one includes many useful costumes to add to your characters wardrob. The content of this book is in color to help the artist make color illustrations. Like many how to books it does not tell you how to do every detail step by step. It is like many from this series that expects you to have some artistic skill before you picked up this book. Intended for intermediate to advanced artists but could be usefull to new artists as practice material. You will get better with practice and there is good content in this book to help you improve.』
(Very detailed and helpful) 『I found this book to be most helpful. The girls are draw realy style, almost like they've been photographed and traced. They have realistic proprotions and look natural. The uniforms are very detailed, with key elements highlighted. There are also segments on shoes, ties, blouse styles and what not that are not part of a particular uniform so you can make your own. I still flip through this one when fishing for random ideas, and something usually pops up.』
(Good for details and coloring, but not drawing...) 『This book is full of color pictures of uniforms (maid, restuarant, cat costume, female business dresses, and some "sexy" costumes. The book shows the uniforms in simulated 3d both on a sample character and clothes only (no sample character in them). It will help you get a feel for the coloring and the details, but it doesn't have any steps for drawing the uniforms pretty much all you see is the final step. So if you want to see finished drawings of a good cross section of female uniforms and some costumes, then this is the book you want.』
(Admit It, You Know You Love a Girl (or Guy) In Uniform!!!) 『I suspect most aspiring American manga artists are attracted to the medium in part because of the fanciful, out-of-the ordinary costumes that many manga characters wear in fantasy, otherworldly or futuristic environments. But the setting in a good number of manga stories--even those featuring super-powered protagonsists--live in the "real world." It's often a greater challenge for a would-be manga artist to create a contemporary wardrobe for main, supporting, and background characters, than is the task of devising a "cool" costume. And what about service uniforms for restaurant workers, candy-stripers, and the like. Details for such outfits can't be faked or improvised!
"Colorful Costumes" is a wonderful intoduction to the world of service uniforms. In his illustrations, Mr. Ozawa has reproduced the uniforms worn by employees of over a dozen actual restaurants in Japan (of course they were accurate as of the time of the publication of the original Japanese edition of this volume). Ozawa also includes clothing worn in ethnic-themed eateries, roadside snack-stands, and hospitials. He includes a detailed description of each outfit.
All illustrations are in color (hence the higher price), and the models are primarily female, drawn in a near-realistic style. The drawings clearly display the construction of each outfit. Since most of the costumes are made in a Western style, the reader should have no trouble adapting the uniforms for his or her purposes.
You never know when you might need a waitress in a scene, so this book makes a good reference. Of course, you should also observe the many outfits worn by people of different professions in your own community.』
『 Who says all manga has to be black-and-white? Introducing "Colorful Costumes," the first all-color book in the renowned "How to Draw Manga" series. The book is in English with 136 pages fully colored measuring approximately 10 inches long by 7 inches wide.
This wonderful edition is a veritable "Encyclopedia of Styles," offering a close-up look at the whimsical costumes and elaborately tailored uniforms worn by the young women who work in Japan's cafes, restaurants, hotels and other service-industry venues.
Also featured is a section on the traditional clothes worn by women in other Asian nations. Jam-packed with 136 full-color pages showing cute manga characters in a variety of costumes and poses.

Manufacturer: Graphic Sha * Seductive Costumes: Take a peek at the alluring (and revealing) work uniforms worn by Japan's "race queens" and "bunny girls."』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Lots of fun for an older, cheaper game) 『I bought this game after enjoying the demo. Although it has its flaws (better AI would be nice), I am giving it 5 stars because this game, for relatively little cost, offers a lot of fun. It is simple, yet can be very exciting. I respect how much work they put in to making it a realistic game based on the real experience of demolition derbies and figure 8 races. I recommend this to anyone who would enjoy a more realistic (and perhaps a little outdated) experience. 』
(Not so hot bargain game.) 『This game was increadibly basic. Although it is extremely affordable, it's not worth the time to install. Try something else like Flatout or Burnout.』 『Demolition Derby and Figure 8 Race』
