now taking requests
Apr. 20th, 2010 11:23 amOkay, so every year famed comic shop THE BEGUILING has a block of tables in the Anime North dealers room. This year, things have worked out that they're able to send some special agents to Tokyo a few weeks before the show to pick up cool stuff to sell at Anime North, so that in addition to their usual wide variety of NA-release manga and anime, they will have some funky, not-normally-available items from older series that aren't currently running but that people are still interested in.
And here's the question for the teeming millions - what should they buy? What anime series will fill consumers with free-spending nostalgia? Inquiring minds want to know. They always do well with Sailor Moon merchandise, so they know to be on the lookout for that, but what else from the past should they keep an eye out for? CLAMP art books? Gundam LPs? Old anime magazines with Patlabor on the cover? Tokusatsu memorabilia? What makes your wallet jump up and holler to be emptied? Let me know and I will pass this info on to the intrepid travellers. (Yes, I have already put in my two cents.)
