DBZ Collectables


DBZ Collectables
Originally uploaded by sab-chan.
Another one for Lauren. There are vast amounts of collectables in this country. Ones I've seen so far:

1)Dragon Ball*
2)Batman
3)Doraemon (weird Japanimation)
4)Cowboy Bebop
5)Gundam*
6)Final Fantasy VII*
7)tonnes of random stuff I can't identify.

They are pretty mad for it over here. There are kids (and adults apparently) who will invest all their effort into getting their hands on this stuff. It really is a big money spinner.

Even bigger are card collectables. God, they spend so much money on those fricken cards, and they are pretty advanced too. They have smartchips in them so you can play arcade games with them!?! Its a huge industry over here.
