sorry :( ... I double checked through my collection ... and that is the only catboy poster or pic I had ... all the rest of the stuff I have is anthro, LOL like the Catboy Owners Manual

kurosu.chan wrote:(For those interested, "nekomimi" is literally "cat" and "ear", so even though I hadn't seen the term before, when I saw it, I really freaked out... :D )

if I remember correctly ... the Japanese "generic" term that covers all types of animal ears is "kemonomimi"

Yes, Kemono = animal/s and Mimi = ear/s

A hobby isn't supposed to leave you wistful, regretful and vaguely disappointed. BJD collecting is as customizable as the dolls themselves. Do whatever pleases you the most, because otherwise, why do it at all? All for the 'Gram Bitches love the 'Gram.

She's my avatar over on Jspot. This is why:

Captain Amelia: [to a protesting Doppler] Let me make this as... monosyllabic as possible. I... don't much care for this crew you hired. They're...
[to Arrow]
Captain Amelia: how did I describe them, Arrow? I said something rather good this morning before coffee.
Mr. Arrow: 'A ludicrous parcel of driveling galoots,' ma'am.
Captain Amelia: [to Doppler] There you go, poetry.

Captain Amelia: Doctor. To muse and blabber about a treasure map in front of this particular crew, demonstrates a level of ineptitude that borders on the imbecilic! And I mean that in a very caring way.

Captain Amelia: Did you actually aim for that?

Captain Amelia: You can keep that kind of flim-flammery for your spaceport floozies, Silver!

Captain Amelia: And doctor, again with the greatest possible respect, zip your howling screamer.

Oh lord, I loved her she was one of my "If I could be a movie character I'd be them" characters.

I now remember why.
