改めて、あけお萌え!
Another year ends, and another new year takes its place!
Tama-chan and Kotama-chan, readying themselves by the balcony of my den, eagerly awaits the obligatory fireworks at the strike of 0000 in the mid night…
The calm before the storm fireworks! ^_~
Just a few minutes left until the btoom! ^0^
狐たちのクリスマス
It’s that time of the year again, the magical period when innocent and pure children awaits their promised presents from the man in red.
Altho the actual day itself falls on the day after tomorrow, it is the Eve (which is… today!) that everyone’s excited about with feast-ful gatherings, family reunions, lovers intimacy and such… XDc
A small fact: today is also unofficially known as KFC Day to the Japanese as a majority of them will opt to Zerg-rush their nearby outlets for bucketful of finger lickin’ fried chickens (Turkeys are too expensive to afford there, same situation where I live… ^_~).
タマちゃんとコタマちゃん
After a couple of delays, her fluffiness in 1/6 scale have finally reached my hands! ^o^
To the uninitiated, the lovely kemonomimi of Fate/Extra is a collaboration between Hobby Japan and Azone International, mould in 1/6 Pure Neemo action doll form!
To avoid confusion to the gigantic Tama-chan, from now on I shall dub this Caster aka Tamamo no Mae, Kotama-chan! XDc
AFA12の娘達: 藤原雪野の冒険と友達!!
In memories of a certain Dollfie Dream… Not! XDc
Many thanks to Yukino-chan’s papa, Tama-chan was invited to one of the biggest gathering of all her kind she’d ever experienced.
俺のキャス狐がこんなに遅いわけがないが続くわけがない
Bad news doesn’t seem to give up its chase, I blame my special Otaku Jinx “perk”.
Tama-chan is beyond not happy to learn of the latest news of her chibi imouto… D:
俺のキャス狐がこんなに遅いわけがない
Yesternight, I’ve received a rather shocking news in the form of a single e-mail…
Tama-chan is not too happy to learn that her new imouto will be late… D:
Mecha Love… They Are Coming!
A childhood dream comes true in just a couple of weeks time at your cinema near you!!
Extra Teasing of a Pure Foxy
Just a friendly reminder to would-be kitsune hunters out there…
The PO for Fate/Extra‘s beloved 1/6 Pure Neemo Caster will end in 10th of May, kon kon!
Note: the transparent kimono she wear above is of a separate product by Azone…
もう、ご主人様のイケメン☆
Azone International finally released an official poster of Fate/Extra‘s lovely kemonomimi in 1/6 Pure Neemo action doll form!
Secure your foxy now before it’s too late, kon kon!
Extra Summoning of a Pure Foxy
An Earth Cycle and a half later after the summoning of Fate/Extra, eager fans of the lovely kemonomimi will finally have a chance to summon her in the form of an Azone 1/6 action doll! ^w^
Many thanks to a couple of comrades who gave Goshujin-sama a heads-up on the news itself…
Culture Japan Night: Aftermath of AFA11
Held on the day after the end of AFA11, Danny Choo invites all comrades together to enjoy, network or mingle with one another…
Also known to most as CGM (Consumer Generated Media) Night or even AFA Day 04, Culture Japan Night is a gathering or sorts organised by Danny Choo for all comrades to interact with one another, exchanging contacts and ideas or even forming absolute alliances… XDc
The gathering starts on 3 in the evening and lasts until 2100 hours, at the AKB48 Café…
Of Dollfies and Dreams: Musume-tachi of AFA11
Last Anime Festival Asia 2010, Kareshi Kanojyo no Mise (A popular local hobby store specialises in anime merchandise and gifts) loaned a part of their display booth to visiting Musume-tachi, drawing the attention of curious crowd…
Since Tama-chan arrival, Tama-chan has been eager to join the rest of them musume-tachi on display this time around in AFA11, but the plan was backfired when rumours of KKnM no longer sponsoring a DD booth this year surfaced earlier this Earth Cycle…
Just as Tama-chan was about to give up, Goshujin-sama’s comrade (an Imperial InnovaDDo) shone a blinding light of hope upon the withered shippo of Tama-chan: The DD Display Booth is a go!
紅い鉄人
Uwaa~! Long time no acquisitions! Unlimited Installment Works have really taken a toll on my figure/Gunpla collections, but it is worth it as the last phase has come to a close now… =3c
POed a trio of seasons back, I’ve finally got my hands on the Hot Toys 1/6 Movie Masterpiece of my most favourite Marvel superhero: the Iron-Man Mk VI after many push backs and delays! ^w^
Green with Envy
Warning: The following 4koma may contain tragic ending, viewer discresion is advised… =3
Planting a Tail
Ever since I adopted Horo-chan many moons ago, her shippo’s really bothers me to this day…
The fact that the design of her tail is to attach to her rear via wearing an ugly piece of pantsu… ^^;
超時空シンデレーラ
The most wallet-draining figure in my arsenal has finally arrived to me earlier this week! ^_^
PO placed with Tokyo Hunter (Incidentally a fellow countryman… :Dc) since the 1st moon of the Earth cycle, this Limited Action Figure Collection (LAFC) Ranka Lee (Macross Frontier) Stage Dress Version was a joint collaboration between Hobby Japan and Megahouse (Meaning you can only PO her thru the Japanese magazine AND only in Japan) and was slated to be release in end of June but was postponed to a month later… ^^;
Thanks to the effort and willingness of Joseph aka Tokyo Hunter to follow my request, Ranka-chan was spared the harsh handling by the Postal Dudes on my island, for they are known to trash and mistreat all my previous daughters (Hold-ups and kidnappings… DX)… 0_0
Anyways, it’s time to bestow my newest daughter with my magic touch… XDc
The Man in the Iron Mask
Ever since the viewing of the first movie adaptation of Marvel superhero Iron Man years ago, the awesome mechanical design that is Iron Man caught my visual eyes almost instantaneously…
Imagine my surprise when Hot Toys unveiled their 1/6 Movie Masterpiece of Iron Man Mark III back then!
However, due to my priority on Gunpla and 1/12 action figures (FigNendo), I’ve been fighting the temptation to get one of these fine but ultimately expensive figures (Especially the silver bling-bling-ness that is the Mark II…)… But no longer…
It’s over now… >,< My wallet that is… Hot Toys finally announced their Iron Mark VI, incidentally my most favourite of the bunch! I must get me a piece!
Chibi Lacus-chan Kenzan!
Henceforth I am a parent of a new baby girl! XD After a week of jinxed events, I’ve finally procured my dream loli… The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3!!! :3c
I actually went to the detention centre twice today; Once during my lunch time, but my card still doesn’t register… ^^; Finally later the day, my banking clan updated my account, thus I head back to the lockup to release my loli after work… ^_^
The whole package lay bare on my bed! A standard tripod, default leather case, XL size Puma jacket, huge paper clip (Not pictured here; Not the memory card holder x keychain as reported earlier…) and of course LX3 herself… :D
Piccie taken using LX3 on Auto… ^_^
Been thinking of her name even as I’m writing this message…
Mmm… Lumix = Rumi-chan? Nope, taken by comrade WiseFreeman for his daughter… XDc
Piccie taken using the veteran Olympus FE230 on Auto… ^_^
LX3 = LaX3 = LaX = Lakus = Lacus?
Yes… I’m naming her after you, my musume… :D Thus Chibi Lacus-chan she is! ^_^
Piccie taken using the veteran Olympus FE230 on Auto… ^_^
As warned by comrade WiseFreeman, the default case isn’t really suitable for Chibi Lacus-chan…
True enough, it takes effort to contain her into this tight coffin, especially along with her straps and lens cap… 0_o
I’ve also procured a self retaining lens cap from eBay a few days ago… Once it arrives, attaching the cap will probably makes it more difficult to use the leather case…
I’m aware of the official button based leather case, but the price is too steep (1/3 the adoption fee of my Chibi Lacus-chan! 0_0) so this will do for now… >,<
Piccie taken using the veteran Olympus FE230 on Auto… ^_^
The tripod I got alongside Chibi Lacus-chan is much chibier that my previous work horse… 0_0
Look at the size of that thing!
Piccie taken using LX3 on Auto… ^_^
With Chibi Lacus-chan on loose I can finally show you the elite that have been accompanying me these couple of Earth cycles…
Behold the veteran Olympus FE230!
Piccie taken using LX3 on Auto… ^_^Otsukare sama, FE230!
I can finally return to Sisterly Love series by tomorrow, after I spend some quality time molest—I mean—playing with her… XD
Random FigNendo Diary
Another entry to the FigNendo diary, mostly involving a dolphin or two… ^^;
Miko Otome~! <3
No Santa dress this time around… 0:
Yee-hawww~!
Dolphin rider!
Dolphin sashimi, Saber portion… :3c
Come to momma! 0_0
Churuya-san takes up dolphin taming as part time job when not drooling over Sumochi…
The aftermath of FigNendo shooting everytime… ^^;
End of Crusade!
And the Crusade reached an end with the Holy Ojou heading towards my loft… ^o^
GJ Otacute! In less than two days, I’ve received an email indicating that my own Ojou is now on her way to her new home… :D Yatta~!
Meanwhile, my trio of Saddle Stands finally arrived at my doorsteps… Magnificent stand they are, allowing my daughters to do some dynamic poses without them toppling over… :D
Got my Yui wayyyy before you all… XD
Defying gravity!
Posing Horo-chan’s shippo is no problemo now!! :3
What’s this? Giant brown Tofu!? Domo-kun!?
Welcome!
Chomp Nom Nom! Poor Mikkumiku lost her hand… ^^;
Domo-kun comes with a cool pair of shades as well… Mikkumiku looks in envy… X3
Unfortunately as a plushie keychain, Domo-kun need the aid of Mikkumiku’s stand to help him stay upright…
Or He’ll land flat on his face… x_x
And finally a teaser… X3 Coming sooner than you think… >:3
La Brassiere
It seems my buroggu will be venturing into wider range of hobby collections besides the usual Gundam only related contents, especially with the inclusion of many non Gundam related posts like Figma Hatsune Miku and Azone Horo… :3
Anyways, due to the horrendous look of the stock pantsu worn by Meyrin when she joins our household, I’ve placed an order for a new set of lingerie for her.
For now she’ll have to be contend with wearing nothing under her innershirt and tight fitting skirt… ^^;
The lingerie set is an Azone International’s Basic Selection, its design is identical to that of the pink lace lingerie worn by Lacus…
Altho it is meant to be used on 27cm 1/6 Obitsu type dolls with M size bust, it should be compatible with the lesser 25cm or 23cm of the Obitsu lines as well… Daughters with L size bust however might have problems wearing the lingerie… :3
It’s a wonder that as an Otaku I usually refrain from buying attires for myself, staying away from fashion time to time but when it comes to my daughter’s apparels, I’ll buy anything for them… ^^;
Besides the lingerie set for Meyrin, I didn’t forget to get something for my other girls as well… ^_^ I’ve preordered a trio of the upcoming 1/6 Doll Saddle Stand Black Type 2, also manufactured by Azone International. While I have a couple of stands readily, both of them are of the hips grabber type which is quite obstructive in the eyes during photo sessions with my daughters…
I find saddle types allows much natural poses than hips grabber as you can do more dynamic actions with the supporting platform… BTW, these saddle stands work on many other types as well including 23cm Obitsu, 25cm Obitsu, Licca, Pullip and perhaps Pure Neemo as well…
On side note, am currently managed to complete the jet nose portion of my 1/72 Armoured Messiah Valkyrie Alto Custom Plamo last night, still worrying about applying the water slide decals as I’m no good at them, especially when I’ve one of the limited edition Sheryl Nome decals included with my purchase… Preferring dry transfer decal ala Gundam Master Grades here…
Still awaiting the arrival of my Figma Saber Lily which I managed to procure from eBay as well… And the MG Exia at the end of the month…
Defining high experience…
Something nice happened to me a couple of days ago after all the complications… I’ve finally procured my dream 32″ Widescreen LCD TV!
While it’s not the Samsung Series 4 I aimed to get earlier (Due to end of stock… the place I went to said there’ll be no more production of Series 4 :( ), this LG 32LH20R-TA is pretty much on the same level, with added Energy saving mode, direct USB support and two HDMI input ports (Which I don’t use as my consoles doesn’t support those…)… ^^; It’s on the same price range as well @ MYR 1579… ^_^ More product specs here…
Being pampering myself with this huge screen these couple of days by watching HD/BR quality anime series (Most notably Gundam 00 and Kemeko Deluxe! XD) and playing games on High Definition… :D
Currently obsessed with a PC game called Prototype, a Spider-Man series-styled free roaming pseudo hero action game which took my breath away with intense bloods and gores ala the recent X-Men Origins: Wolverine game as well as carnage fun-filled city free running… And I do mean free running as you can literally run around and along skyscrapers with your bare foot and also glide from buildings with no wings whatsoever!
That aside, I’ve tested the LCD TV with my trio of consoles as well… Xbox 360 runs impressively with the Component input port (Tested with Star Ocean: The Last Hope… Jaw dropping HD graphics!), while Wii runs respectably on a regular AV input port (But huge screen is a humongous plus for rail shooter games, like Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles I’d tested)…
As the LCD TV contains only one AV input port, I had to swap the cables in order to test my PS2. Unfortunately, the graphics on this dated system looks incredibly bad on the huge screen due to pixel-ization (Tested with the bug shooting Ichigeki Sacchu Hoi Hoi san, which lacks the cutesy squeaky footsteps sound from the short OVA… >,<) …
Some piccies of the LCD TV with the denizens of my room.. :D
Never showcase these two before… They’re Kotobukiya’s budget range Mode Lock Plamo mechas from Full Metal Panic! Anime Series, ARX-7 Arbalest and M-9 Gernsback respectively with custom paint job… XD Painting is such a chore for me (Besides… I’m bad at minuscule paintings…) that I’m still keeping my other two Mode Locks – Sky Girl’s Fujin and A4-1 FMP!’s Falke in box… Sky Girl’s Reijin is fully painted but currently resides in another cabinet…
My daughter is weeping because of what happened to her upcoming sister…
My Perfect Grade Astray Red Frame tried its best to calm down the weeping princess… :D
Gonna go watch Hayate no Gotoku! Second Season in HD now! XD
