My Collecticon 2011 Experience

Got up early to catch the event at a shopping mall nearby. Was not expecting it to be miniscule and was hoping for a lot of cosplayers (girls XD) but it was still a lot of fun and a lot of figures, toys, and whatnot! I was particularly looking forward to seeing some GunPla and get ideas on how to build my next goodies (yes RG's it's almost time to get yah!). Without further adieu, I present Collecticon 2011!

Give in to the dark side Luke! Strike Lord Vader down!

Bruce's in a pinch! Sweeney and Bean ganging up on him lol

I really like what the modeler has done with the details on this SD Strike

Not quite sure if these V series kits are HGUC or FF? Hopefully I can snag both. It looks awesome!

...Wow

This is badass!

Look closely at the mono eye

And this flag has Zechs Marquise written all over it! It also has the infamous Tallgeese shield (which cannot be seen in the pic lol)

This screams epicness... DRAGONZORD!!

Schumi

The real Bruce Almighty

Super Robot Wars!

Gundam Unicorn FA FFX is from a friend at GFP - Kei

Diorama O_________O

The Black Bird

Wolvie VS ....Nick Fury?

Whew! Pardon for some of the grainy photos. I forgot that I left the cam in High Sensitivity mode. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the pics as I did too with the convention. Till next time :)

TT Hongli MG 1/100 Exia Ignition Mode - Review

Assembling bootleg kits can be a pain at times but this MG Exia Ignition Mode was a breeze. I was surprised from the fact that 90% went well and the other 10% were minor fixes - from shaving male connectors to gluing parts. I really enjoyed assembling my first Master Grade (I was hoping it was Bandai, my wallet was not cooperating as expected lol). Action! G...Gu...Gundaaaaaam!!!!!!!!!!! GUUUUNDAAAAMU!!! Ore wa........... Ore Wa Gundam-da!! Exia exterminating target............... Graham: Ike, Setsuna! Live and unlock the future! More swords Setsuna? Target exterminated! Joining the bunch :D Pros: Assembling is pretty easy for a bootleg Build is sturdy It came with LEDs! Cons: Joints are too stiff (for my liking, anyways, it made the kit solid though) Swords at his wait does not fit the peg in the hand Exia Repair parts does need half of the non-Repair head. (didn't bother with the transformation) The Exia Ignition Mode is a must have! I'm really g...

Photobucket has kidnapped my photos and I'm too lazy to re-upload and update every bit. It's been worthwhile. I'm intending to start a new blog that is more "personal" than just focus on one part of my hobby. Looking at my older posts, I can fairly say I've improved on my toy photography (and English!) in which I am thankful for this space as a medium to share my work. Thank you for reading up to this part! Cheers for 7 years!

Bandai RG RX-78-2 Gundam - Review

The much anticipated (and delayed) review of my RG RX-78-2! I broke the chest piece when I was applying some finishing touches on the kit. Crap it was a nightmare! When the piece snapped into two I couldn't hold back and yelled NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! That serves another lesson for me. Never EVER force yourself into working with half-assed consciousness. Weeks came by and I was able to get in touch with someone who has a spare RG RX-78-2 kit. Viola, my kit is RESTORED! Onto the review, here's the RX-78-2 in its Real Grade Excitement Embodied glory Ah, the Real Grade. Stressing color separation. The attention given to the details of RG kits is just plain awesome! The different shades of white, red, and blue is fantastic. Showing off some articulation here, kneeling poses are a bit better than the RG Char Zaku. Goes to show that top notch engineering with a mini-skirt design Gundam works! That's Amuro by the way :p Will paint...
