Yea, Amiami has it for 1420 Yen and at this moment that translates to less than $15, and shipping probably put it a bit higher. (It is in Japan.)
Only downside to the chibi Prozen is that he's not pre-painted. So I gotta figure out how to paint him. Me and my nervous tick. That might turn out bad.
They do, any animal does... Once they are yours, no matter how long, they get a room in your heart and once they die, it's an empty void that takes a while to heal. And I think they hang around a bit afterwards too. Gucci had a very distinctive scent when she was getting ready to shed, when her skin got dry. It was a warm, toasty scent, very much like a graham cracker, but different... And for the first two days since she passed, I would randomly smell very strong bursts of that smell, almost like she was under my nose. Since I could still smell her, I didn't clean her cage, so she could have a home for as long as she lingered, and only today am I getting ready to clean it for Carmi to move into (it's much bigger, so she'll appreciate it). Her favourite bamboo hide, I'm going to keep, clean up and put aside so that Gucci knows she's always got her favourite hide if she ever wants to visit.
They always seem to be with us for too short a time, don't they? But at least they give us at least that long to be our friends.
That isn't too bad at all lol considering. Yea I wouldn't want to have to paint it T_T my hand tends to shake when I am trying to do something with really small details... gahh
I wish I could have built Shadow Fox as a costume since he is my favourite zoid but I think that Liger was the better choice in the end *sigh*
Yea definitely <3 There was a story I read that made me cry it was a little boy that was talking about his dog when he went with his parents to have the dog put down of old age. And anyway they were worried about how it would affect the boy but he didn't cry because as he said "Well, God put us on the earth to learn how to love. But he was born knowing how so he didn't have to stay as long." and just, that made a huge impact on my life.
Gahh teary eyed just typing that D8
