Jennie sez, "I've recently become obsessed with the latest installment in Keita Takahashi's brilliant Katamari Damacy series,
Beautiful Katamari. I created my own real-fake Katamari from an assortment of dollhouse furnishings, hobby shop accoutrements, and toy stores oddities. Additionally, I hand made Pocky and Milky packages using inkjet prints on tiny boxes. The entire replica is made from miniatures down to the hand-felted Katamari at the core, with all the items glued, pinned, and sewn. Approximately 12" high at a 1:12 scale."

Just to correct Jennie, it’s no longer really Keita Takahashi’s series anymore. He left Namco after the second PS2 game, supposedly fed up over Namco’s nonstop efforts to milk his intellectual property.
I’ve wondered what Takahashi has actually been up to lately — the only interview with him I ever read made it sound like the original KD was the one and only time he agreed his creative vision would work in a video game. He’s on record as not even being a fan of the Wii.
I hope he comes back to gaming some time!
