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

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!

QY SD God Gundam - Mini WIP, Assembly Cure and Review

Thank GOD I'm back! Lumix is back and my GunPla energy has been over the top! I'm feeling good this morning and built Gundam Alex. Well more on that next time, but again, thank GOD I can finally review my QY God Gundam! Starting off, here is the box of QY's bootleg of God Gundam (Deitg Warrior). Unboxing this miniscule kit, there are only 5 runners along with the polycaps. ..And here's my bootleg Unicorn (mfg by Jargon), envious why he does not have a review. Issue 01: Starting off our assembly cure, carefully shave off the chest piece by a hobby knife to snugly fit it into the chest armor. Issue 02: Like most of my QY kits, head continues to be problematic. Cut the male connectors and apply glue to the seams. Issue 03: Waist armor male connectors are too thick. Shave by a hobby knife or sand it down to fit the pieces. Issue 04: Arms too have fitting issues. Cut the male connectors and then glue. Make sure you do not forget the poly cap when gluing! Is
