| Holiday Preview Part II We're in the steady simmering period before the holidays. This is the time when order volume starts picking up from the summer doldrums and weird stuff starts selling. We sold two cutting boards over the past few days which haven't sold in 5 years. Over in Japan, new software releases slow to a trickle while North American releases ramp up with the flood of releases that'll reach market before Thanksgiving. In the next few weeks, USA releases will slow to a trickle and Japanese releases will ramp up. |

TOYS Monster Hunter Onsen Airu Case - Preorder
«©NCSX» If you're the type of person who secrets valuables and baubles in small containers, the upcoming Monster Hunter Airu and Meraru storage pouches might come in handy.
In our estimation, no self-respecting thief would look for a 4-carat diamond inside a toy that looks like Airu or Meraru. The thief is trained to think like a thief. He thinks that valuables should be hidden inside secure vaults or intricate devices that require at least three hours of hacking and bypassing. That's why NCS advocates the concept of "hide in plain sight." Throw a US$40,000 diamond wedding ring inside Airu and leave it right on top of the dining room table. A master thief would look at it and assume it's just a cheap $1.25 plastic toy from China while he heads for the vault which contains about $3.76 in loose change. Preorders are welcome to ship in January 2011 at JPY500 each or US$22.90 for the complete set of four.
