There's a shopping trip. May 16. Who's going? You are, if you so choose. Where are we meeting up? Parking lot 6. When are we meeting up? 9 am. No one show up an hour late this time (I'll include myself in that category). We wanna try and leave before 10 so that we can get frank and sons over with and actually spend some time in little tokyo without feeling rushed.
Here's the tentative list of locations on our tour:
Frank n' Sons
Little Tokyo
Power Anime - I'm going to try and get that discount like they said we'd get last time. If not, we'll probably go somewhere else.
So far we've got three cars signed up, and two cars that are a maybe. Anyone else got a ride? Anyone else need a ride? Post yourself below and make your presence known.

I'm not sure if it was mentioned yet but Power Anime is closing down their store and moving to strictly online so apparently most of the stuff in the store is 25% off.

I just went and checked it out and you're right sir. As far as I've gathered Power Anime will be closing its store about May 31st, but will continue to show up at conventions and continue to sell stuff through their online store. They're liquidating with about 25-30% off of essentially everything in their store, so we'll definitely be hitting that up after little Tokyo because it'll be our last chance ever to do so. Also, I have another confirmed driver, so even if the two "maybe's" can't make it, we should have a seat for everyone who's expressed interest...it'll just be very cramped lol |

If you need another store to visit after Power Anime shuts it's doors there is also Toylet, it's about 20min away from Little Tokyo. I haven't been there myself but I've heard good things about them. |

Having Power Anime shut its doors isn't necessarily a big hit to our anime shopping trip schedule since we've only had it part of our schedule once (that was during the fall 2008 quarter), but we'll keep Toylet in mind for the future. How is it? Worth the 20min drive? |

Like I said, I haven't actually gone there myself. I've just heard about if from a few different people on sites like Dannychoo. =P
Their website has some pretty interesting looking stuff though.

It has a few of your Miku figurines.  I'm not sure if a "Crayon Shin-chan with Mr Elephant" was very smart to make. ;;>_> It kind of begs CP. I'm not sure because there's a black bar over it. Lol at the chubacca plush. *Thinking ahead* It gives me a funny idea for what I want to get for the christmas gifting next time. I think it really depends on what they keep in-store stock. A lot of the stuff looks good online, but who knows what they'll have at the store? |

Alright, now that a maybe car has been officially confirmed, here's the seating list as I see it now...
My car: Sasha, Kristine, Kaori, ?Alberto? (depending on which car he wants)
Jason's car: Sarah, Chris, Johnny, ?Alberto?
Thomas' car: Vinnery and co.
Neilstucky's car: Allison, Calvin, plus 2 empty spots just in case extra people show up or sign up (which happens from time to time...)
Brian's car: the usual crew
Am I missing anything or anyone? If so let me know.
