I am so excited about this. Volume 1 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BO0LHW/ref=pd_ser_asin_2/102-3784055-6866501?s=dvd&v=glance&n=130) is being sold on Amazon.com, starting February 28th, in Region 1 format. And the price are actually quite resonable. I expected it to be over the top.

I am a big fan of OH! Mikey. For those who don't know OH! Mikey, I'm not even going to explain it since I'd just kill it, so read the SA page about it. I got introduced to it from there, and I watched Volume 2 on Google Video and got hooked. :)

You need a really open mind for this, since the humour is bizarre seeing how it's just mannequins with insanely happy expressions with voice overs and English subtitles (the show is in Japanese.) What I like about the show is that the humour isn't really raunchy (as far as I know, I've only read/watched about Volume 1 and 2, so if the later volumes are dirty, don't blame me) or anything like that, but just insane.

Any fans of OH! Mikey? If so, who is your favourite character? Mine would probably be Dad and Bob-Mama (http://i.somethingawful.com/features/ohmikey1/bobmama.jpg). And of course, Time Boy. :)

If you want to watch the 2nd Volume (they only have the 2nd, unfortunatly :( ), just type in "OH Mikey" into Google Video. I dunno if it'd be PIRATING if I linked it, so I'll go on the safe side and just not do it.
