Gundam seem to have taken a centre stage this year, with a fully poseable 1/12 RX-78 Gundam and a statue of Build Burning Gundam displayed at either end of the centre stairs of the main hall.

A Gathering of Collectors

Got an invitation to join a gathering of us local collectors of various anime/manga/game figures and toys, last weekend.

We were encouraged to bring along some of our collections for display, as this is also an exhibition event or sort, in a local mall close by.

Incidentally within the same day, there are other events going on around town, on the island and main land. The Bounenkai, a cosplayers event at another mall nearby; Danny Choo’s Culture Japan Night (Noon infact, just like the one 3 years back, same venue even… ^^;) at yet another venue, still within the island; And Day 2 of an ACG event called TAGCON in the main land.

As I’ve already promised and committed to turn out in the Anime Collectible & Games Penang event, I’d to abandon the idea of attending the rest, although my close friends did managed to visit them in my stead. XDc

Displays of PAM15

After a general view on the event itself, we’ll have a look at various displays that scattered all over the exhibition halls…

Unlike Anime Festival Asia or many of the localised fan events (COSPAR, MOEPA, etc…), figure displays are pretty much non-existent here in Penang Anime Matsuri Summer Party 2015.

That said, a few commercial booths and the doujin circles in Creator’s Market personally set up their very own displays or sort.
