Kamen rider will have his hands full in Shibuya tonight…

Another couple additions to the army of foolishness.

Yonezawa Kamen Rider sparkler and E.O Ranger Robot.

Another lunch with friends.

I met with Mario today at the Dedham Collectable and Toy show. He had brought with him some items from his collection, and it felt as if a circle had been completed by finally getting to meet and talk with him for the first time. Our collective appreciation of all things Gaiking paved the way for a fun conversation.

Barom 1 tells Warren he is hungry for dim sum. Warren complies…

Warren opens his Barom 1 for the first time in Chinatown.

Paying homage to cute robot history…

It’s that time again.

Josh got word from his parents that two boxes showed up at their house, so we headed out to see what new goodies we got. Per usual, I am tearing open bubble wrap and making small squeaking noises while Josh meticulously unwraps every piece and inspects every corner of every box.

Enjoy.

Warren, Alen and I all meet for lunch today at Ginza in Chinatown. I have only been to the other location in Brookline, but have high hopes regardless as the food is always excellent.

Uncle W brings a package and hands me a gift for my better half… a mini sofubi to go with his big brother on her shelf. He then gives Alen a missile firing Takatoku Gokai Tiger and Alen poses for the inevitable photo. The low res IPhone photo.
Yen brings out the Voltron USBs and Uncle admires it as I pick out what I want to eat. They have Anago (sea eel) and all feels right with the world.

We are all tired, busy, and feeling the stress of the holiday seasons. But it is good to get together once in a while and just decompress with good food, friends and toys. Another mini summit to the rescue.
