Who owns Shiina stuff?

[Ringo~Bingo]

I received my Dynamite In dvd today which replaced the one I can't find anymore but that's not important. What I found surprising is the sheer amount of packing they use at Shopping Mall Japan :O it's like a battle with non stop brown tape for 5 minutes before you can even get into the box not to mention the sheer oversize of the box as well it's as though they are packed for travel through a war zone or something! the box I got previously for the big cardboard promo was actually TWICE the size of the thing all padded down with bubble wrap and newspaper. You could literally throw your package out the window and know it was still OK

They are the best packers I have ever come across!

I think it's because Shopping Mall Japan took the title a bit too literally =P

Got my ZCS poster today :O single items get through rather quickly with no Customs (which is nice).

Bingo and Glath should join forces to set up the Shiina Ringo museum.

He can set up a European branch, while I can set up a North American branch. There's hardly anything for us to pool together if we mostly have the same stuff.

Finally got my Geko VHS which completes the VHS colelction to all 4 \0/ and also managed to pick up a legit sealed Shouso Strip after going through a few fakes (re-sealed with clingfilm whereas this one has a real pull tab seal). I suspect the KZK & UM as being samples but I didn't bid for those or even care about them as they just happened to be in a cheap bundle with the VHS (4600 Yen all in).

aiyaaaa, I want that phone charm! I wonder how much it would be just for that...

I also really want posters. >_< I wonder if I'll wander into the Ringo poster buying fray soon... but I also keep telling myself "when I go back to Japan, I'll scour the tiny shops there for these posters, the way that Brad guy did." Brad was always writing blogs like "Today I found this tiny store and it had like 5 rare Ringo posters!" I WANT TO DO THAT. rrrrr

Does this constitute a bootleg

I know that making posters from CD cover scans is useless but I always thought that scans of a high quality from a book would be great! so I went to the shop nearby that sells scanning and printing equipment for thousands of pounds (more business than domestic orientated) and I got chatting to the girl about doing prints for me! she agreed and took my page from the MM score book and scanned it usung their stuff and printed me a 30 x 20 inch poster of utter awesomeness on incredibly high grade glossy paper \0/ the cost? £10 as long as the source is decent you can have this kind of epic for next to nothing!!!

When I scanned this picture myself you could see the text a little on her left arm (through to the other page) but these people obviously had more expertise than me I have fantastic full page Gips & Tsumi to Batsu ads in one of my magazines so they are next!

I really need to find a magazine or whatever that has an unspoiled image of this (below).
That would be an absolutely ideal poster to put in a nice acrylic frame.

Ohhhhh, wow! What a great idea!! I am definitely going to consider that...

ringo bingo, I can see from your UM cd that it is a sample, the KZK however has the non copy sticker that was included on the actual release so it probably isn't a sample unless it has that same sticker with a number that is on the front right of UM.
