Meet the man with the world's biggest collection of 'Dragon Ball' memorabilia



A Dragon Ball fan has earned a place in the record books with a memorabilia collection of more than 10,000 unique items related to the media franchise created by Akira Toriyama.

Hitoshi Uchida of Japan recently surpassed the previous Guinness World Record of 5,065 pieces set by Michael Nilsen in 2007. A fan since he was a kid, Hitoshi hoarded so many Dragon Ball merchandise over the years that he was forced to quit his job to focus on his collection. The Tokyo resident even has an entire room dedicated to 4,000 Son Goku items.

Eric van Straaten's 3D-Printed Statuettes

I can't remember when I first became entranced with Eric van Straaten 's 3D-printed sculptures. I think I stumbled onto his work through tumblr when I was searching for new artists to follow. Eric's attention to detail is pretty amazing, and the image of the eroticized child-woman is familiar throughout his work.

This camera app is really useful if you want to protect the anonymity of your subject

In some cases it may be necessary to conceal the identity of the people you record. A common method used by journalists and photographers is the silhouette effect. Sometimes they also use editing softwares to both blur images and distort voices beyond recognition. But if you don't have enough time for the above-mentioned techniques, a new camera app promises to be the most comprehensive solution. Aptly called Anonymous Camera , the app offers real-time face anonymizing while you're shooting images. Faces can be blocked with solid colors, static noise, or a blur effect. You can even choose to hide people's whole bodies and distort audio tracks in videos. It is free to download on the App Store and costs just $1.99 if you want to remove the AC watermark from video recording. Other valuable features : - Remove metadata: users can choose to delete any and all metadata associated with the video, including time, date, and location. - Split screen: control how much of the frame is
