Starwars Droid Soy Sauce Bottles - New Import, In Stock

Poor R2. Once a champion on the silver screen who saved Jedi and Rebel hides alike from certain death, the droid has fallen from grace. Instead of traversing the galaxy on woolly adventure after adventure, R2 now serves as kitchenware. To be precise, a soy sauce bottle. A few months ago, R2 was a laundry basket. What's next? A toilet roll? A donut holder? Will the madness never end and is anyone listening?

Despite our protestations, the R2-D2 exploitation will probably never end so if we can't beat 'em, we join 'em. NCS shamelessly engages in the peddling of R2-D2 products and we're selling the soy sauce bottles today. Each droid holds about 4 oz of liquid. We tried water, milk, vodka, and soy sauce and everything poured out with ease. That is, until we tried olive oil which was too viscous to make it through the droid's pour-hole. «Photos»

Oneechan Bara Vortex Aya Figure - New Import, In Stock

In the Oneechan Bara VorteX game from December 2006, sisters Aya and Saki teamed up with a policewoman named Anna to rid the metropolis of a rising zombie threat. When plunging into masses of undead with the goal of chopping them up, most sensible warriors would put on some armor, chain mail, or at least armlet.

Aya scoffs at those pansies.

She goes to war wearing a two-piece bikini, a hat, and a pair of thigh high boots. Occasionally she'll throw on a feather boa to accessorize. In the case of the Oneechan Bara VorteX Aya figure, our idol also wears a beaded necklace and hefts two swords for that special dual slicing action.


The Aya figure is set to 1/8 scale and measures 20cm or 7.87" tall. Two color variants are on offer - a red bikini figure as shown in the product photo to the left and a black bikini version. Other than the color of the bikini and the shade of the tassels on her gloves, the two figures are identical. Aya also wears a hat which may be removed to reveal her hat-flattened hair. New orders are welcome to ship today. «Photos»
