That's fine with me.  I still remember being disappointed that I didn't
have the chance to do a combo skit with him at Anime East 1995, when I
hosted the cosplay there, due to his illness at the time.  I had really
looked forward to the chance to have probably the only 2 people in the
USA (back then anyway) with Imperial costumes on the same stage.

I remember seeing that pic in Animage after Anime Con 91 or Anime Expo
92 in California and beeing so annoyed that somebody had thought to do
the Imperial dress outfit before I did!  And to top it off he *does*
look like Reinhard too! :( It's not fair - why don't we have more cool
dressing short redheaded stocky balding megalomaniacs?!  ;_;

But sometime I still need to get me a copy of that issue, just for
archival reference...
