In episode 24, a female sniper is assigned the task of killing Golgo 13. It’s impossible to beat Golgo 13 in a fair fight, and women in general fight dirty, so she plots to mess up Golgo 13’s eyesight by exposing him to the sandy Sirocco/Ghibli winds of Morocco. Little did she know that Golgo [...]

In the last post I said I got a figma Golgo. It was nicer than I expected, and comes with the biggest extra I’ve ever seen come with a figma. A di:stage basic set. I really didn’t expect it until I noticed that the box was unusually thick. Then it occured to me that there [...]
