Man Burns Down House Over Action Figures

A 29-year-old man was Yoshifumi Takabe, 29, was arrested for burning down his house after his mother threw away his Gundam action figures, according to various reports.

Toy Dolls are a really big thing in Japan. One of the Documentary channels on Dork even had a 1 hour show on it. Some of the dolls were even life sized & the guys were banging them.LoL:yes:

i once came home to find out my brother threw out my bongs and flushed my weed down the toilet.

i punched him in the face

he never threw out my weed again, problem solved

and one time i was eating chicken noodle soup, went to the fridge to refill my soda, and when I got back my cat was eating my soup out of the bowl. we shared the rest.


moral of this post, i have no idea, other than dont fk with an asian guy's action figures

If it was the original Gundam, then they were worth big bucks. Been an anime fan since the beginning of organized fandom here more than 30 years ago. Some of the old toys in good condition would be worth thousands of dollars each. I see them going for crazy money all the time on Ebay. You should have put your money into collectibles instead of the bank or stocks. The return was way better....
