Too bad that this is probably a "if you have to ask, you can't afford it" kind of auction. :(

Would definitely love to go to the interview with Tatsuya Nakadai, whom the article misidentifies as "Lone Wolf" (if they mean Lone Wolf and Cub, that would be Tomisaburo Wakayama, who died in 1992).
"It doesn't matter whom you are paired against;
your opponent is always yourself."

Wow, love to own something, but sadly even out of my budget heh...
