A POST DRAWS NEAR! COMMAND?
What’s this a real post!! I bet everybody thought I forgot about this poor blog (I did a little bit). Truth is it’s all due to laziness (and not having much to write about)! So out of building feelings of guiltiness and neglect, comes a post.
Anyways here’s some of the various Dragon Quest merchandise I bought over the past while. Most of it was for the 25th anniversary. Some of it I actually got at the DQ museum that was in Tokyo last year. First is a special slime for the 25th anniversary.
What’s different about it? Well it’s wearing a bow-tie first of all. Also on the back it has a special patch.
I also picked up this cool slime glass.
I use it everyday to drink juice in the morning. There’s a couple more slimes on the back too.
These special booklets were only for people who went to the 25th anniversary museum.
Inside is some simple quests for you to do while you looked at the exhibit. If you did everything correctly you got a special pin as shown below.
Here’s a slime handkerchief I got. I thought it was really cute.
One thing I tend to do when I go somewhere in Japan is buy a special handkerchief for that place. They always sell them everywhere, and they’re also really handy and useful. A souvenir that you can actually put to use.
I got this book at the local Yodobashi Camera electronics store.
It’s almost what you would call a Dragon Quest history book. It’s filled with tons of info about the series.
I just wish it was in English…
All the artwork is cool though.
Here’s some playing cards.
They have a really cool slime design on the back of them.
Also some the cards have some cool pictures on them.
Finally here’s an Eco-bag. It looks like a Famicom (NES) box when it’s all folded up.
When it’s open you can see the hero symbol on the front of the bag.
So that’s my round of all my goodies. Lately I’ve been acquiring some good Jojo stuff due to its anniversary this year so expect a future post on that.
