We gladly admit that we are Phoenix Wright freaks. We do not question our fandom and we encourage others to join us in our epic quest for justice, DS style. You can see why we were so thrilled to hear about Play-Asia having a special sticker bonus for us fans.
We were gleeful, ecstatic and any other word you can think of that means overly excited. So excited that we did a jig on our desk in the middle of class. Suddenly, a dark cloud loomed over our jig.
We got an a few emails saying that the Phoenix Wright stickers are no more. WHAT?! Yes, for "unknown reasons" they were canceled.
We know dear readers, we know. This news is heartbreaking. In fact, is there anyone we can sue?
[Thanks Lush and Vincent!]

I'd cancel my preorder if I weren't still getting it months before the US release, and probably cheaper too. Still, totally pissed about the stickers. Next time, check with legal before you make promises, Play-Asia.

HOLD IT!
That picture isn't even Phoenix! Nor Edgeworth...or Gumshoe. Even Larry Butz isn't pictured here (and usually when something smells, it's usually the Butz.)
That miscreant posing in your above post is none other than "???".
Based on this evidence here,

It is painfully obvious that this imposter, however fashionably dressed and semi-ambiguously-gay he may be, can be none other than "CAPCOM's Legal Department Lawyer", carrying the fire-extinguisher of "Illegal Breach of Copyright and Merchandising" to put out the flames of "Fanboy Glee Toward Phoenix Wright 2: Justice for All and Wrongful use of intellectual property to promote sales on Play-Asia"! And rightly so!
How else could you explain the sudden cancellation of "Play-Asia"'s sticker promotion? No doubt would CAPCOM stand to gain from sticker sales -unless- said stickers were being fashioned without permission?
(Is that all? There's got to be a contradiction in this post somewhere!)

I dunno, I pre-ordered Phoenix Wright 2 off Play-Asia and haven't received any cancellation notice. Perhaps they just took more orders than they had stickers for, and they cancelled all the extra orders.

Can someone from DSFanboy (Dave, Alisha, Nikki or Jason) please, please, please give Kyle a Star? He very well deserves one.

Hey pal! The man in question is Richard Wellington, a witness in the first case of Phoenix Wright 2!

I was going to do the whole Edgeworth schtick in response to kyle, but not much more can be said about the character without treading into spoiler territory, so the best I could muster at this hour was Gumshoe's so-called endearing trait. :o
