R-Type Command figurine

Yeah I know I’ve been an Atlus pimp lately, but they seem to be doing things right this year and are really taking advantage of the upcoming AAA release lull.

Here’s a few more shots of the model. Note that there’s only a few shops participating, so if you want it, you’ll have to grab yours from amazon, or in person at your local GameStop (EB Games in Canada) or Game Crazy.

As for me, I just dropped by to grab pictures. Too many games on the play list right now to consider adding another. Hell, I haven’t even unwrapped Lost Odyssey.
