SH Figuarts Monkey D Luffy - Review

Free time means blogging! Currently training in preparation for my future employment, toy photography has been that "distraction" to replenish my brain cells. Another figure from my brother's collection - Monkey D Luffy! Now let's do some stretching!





Perfect straw hat


A little weird


Meat!


Robot-san can you be my nakama!?



Gear..............


2nd!! (This is an edit in PS by the way and not an accessory in the figure)



You won't be able to follow me


JET-OH!!!



PISTOL!


Gomu gomu no........ STAAAAAMP!!!





Gomu gomu nooo......




BAZOOOOKAAA!



Gear.............


3rd!!!



Sorry I couldn't help it someone had to do IT right? XD



Pros:
Luffy's skinny body is articulation heaven
Accessories + meat lol

Cons:
String for straw hat
Rubbery / stretched arms and legs

All nothing but praises for the SHF toy line as usual. The only figure I had an issue with is the Iron Man Mark VI because of the weak joints. The cons are nothing but wishlists. Speaking of wishes, I hope SHF would release the complete crew BEFORE if they ever plan to proceed with the new world version. Nami and Sanji were the only ones that had the SHF treatment. Boo no Zoro. All in all, this is a highly recommended purchase.

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
