M.U.S.C.L.E Manly Men


The Japanese release of M.U.S.C.L.E (not counting Kinnikuman) was pretty focused on the fact that these were MEN. Muscle Men, to be precise.

SEGA arcade card games

One thing I wish would take off here in the states is those neat trading card arcade games that I see often in Japan. It seems every attempt just kinda stalls. Which surprises me as trading cards and video games are always popular. Seeing as the toys to life craze is dying down (something I was too very into until burning out about a year before it started dying out itself) I can understand. But something like a card game seems pretty easy to sell. Specially in today's world of smart phone games, I figure just scan a code on the card and boom. Either way, man, I'd love it if it was a thing here.

Frankenstein's got a pink dreadlocks! The Zombie has a Chelsea because it's into 90's alt rock! Then when your monster customer gets mad at the terrible job you did on it's precious hairdo, you can just lock it up! There&

1. - The apostle, an attack. A mysterious living body that appeared suddenly after a long silence, apostle. The weapons of the UN forces that gathered to counter it did not have any teeth at all ... Finally the command of battle against the apostles was transferred to the special institution Nerf. The Apostle who invades silently aiming for the 3rd New Tokyo City ... At that time, the Space Shuttle descends from the sky far, Cybertron 's Skylinks. What appeared from inside is the Saibaton warriors led by the convoy who has perceived indispensable energy reactions from the head of Haruka Seiberton. "I can not let the planet cause tragedy like that second impact ... on this planet ... What is that monster !?" The convoy that fell on the ground is far more enormous than ourselves ... amazed at the apostles. "That is ... what on earth? It does not seem to belong to the UN army." Nerf Operation Directive, Mitsato Katsuragi is at a loss as to how to respond
