I'm happy to announce that the Crystal Chronicles Fan Music Masterlist I've been gently curating has finally been updated with new music, along with fixing and cleaning up dead links!

With this update I've gone and created a new layout to make things way easier to navigate! Simply click on a song to see all of the fanmade music I've found for it! It should work on Mobile too so have fun guys!

I took these photos near the launch of FFCC remastered, when everyone on twitter was talking about their love of the game and how excited they were for the re-release. Thanks to @heebiejeebiejade's relentless peer pressure, I got the courage to @ Toshiyuki Itahana on twitter, showed him my collection and told him how much I loved FFCC! He actually replied and I basically died right then. That's right, I've been a ghost this entire time but I digress XD

Another re-photograph! This time of the Dress Shirt handed out to Store Managers at EB games for FFCC's launch in 2003! Employees were given different T-Shirts, of which I have not been able to find yet, but I'm always looking! God I need to Iron this thing...

Got this recently in an auction for like... 20 cents!! Got to combine shipping with other items too so it was a mega steal!!

This is the FFCC Multiplayer guide, which gives lots of tips and tricks for playing in multiplayer!! It's super cute and even includes cut out dice that players can use to roll on who gets items like magicite, gil, and artifacts during multiplay!

Another one of those items that needed to be re-photographed, this is the ceiling banner used in EB game stores back in 2003!

It's old and it has some residue from where the store used tape on it, but trying to remove it damages the illustration. It's also got a really bad scratch on the opposite side (not pictured) which makes me a bit sad, but I got it over a decade ago when the prices for it were.... normal. Nowdays they go for several hundred dollars and I'm shocked LOL

This is something I had a hard time tracking down, mostly because Amazon.JP was the only place I could find it for a long time and the sellers who had it in stock didn't ship overseas. ToT

I wanted it mostly for it's unique cover! The article inside is only a short two page feature, but the cover art is so nice! I love how they made the magazine's mascot into a Lilty XD

This is a NEW Jewel in my FFCC collection!! I got this a few weeks ago in an auction (my wallet hurts a lot after this one)

This is an item rewarded to those who reached 'Ultimate' status on the JP Square Enix Store, featuring Sherlotta from Echoes of Time and Leo from My Life as a King! The amount of money you had to spend to reach 'ultimate' status though..... gosh I could never afford it haha! There weren't many of these made but I don't know the exact amount that were printed. Don't let the photo fool you, this print is a lot bigger than it looks too!

First up on my list of things that need to be re-photographed, the Spinning display from EB games back in 2003!!

This awesome display is one of the jewels of my collection, and while the mechanical motor DOES still work, it's very fragile - so I won't be posting any videos of it at the moment until I can get a hold of a better motor. There is an old spinning video on my blog from over a decade ago if anyone is curious about how it looks in action! The motor was on its last legs back then too, so I definitely need to replace it before I can do new video of it.

I let my brother bribe me into drawing his character in return for cat plush.... no regrets

I mean just look at his face

His name is Mr. Meow
