This new figure of “Elea -Nishi Version-“ by Mega House from the new Blassreiter series, will be available for sale on August 2008 ^^ The figure will be up for 5,500 Yen and Hobby Search is taking reservation for it as of today ^^
Didn’t look as good as I expected ( > _ < );, but we’ll just see later, since they can still improve it ^^;
More on the upcoming 1/100 Astraea Gundam Type-F ^^

Not much different with the normal Astraea though ^^;
Not mine ^^;
A nice review on MG RX-78-2 “One Year War” Movie Ver.

You can view more of picture here
A cute, weird, funny, and cool freestyle dance routine at the same~XD I like the slapping part :p
Note:
There was a slow traffic of news on figure/gunpla because of Golden Week period in Japan, but it just ended yesterday. So expect a bunch of news coming ^^
Found these 2 images of Saber figure, which I’ve never seen before.


These are 2 different figures. Can anyone identify the company maker? Looks new to me and the details are amazing. I personally like the first image ^^

A nice preview of, which I think is, the upcoming figure of Ignis by Yamato. This beautiful figure of Ignis was shown at WHF 2008 Final and is part of Cerberus Project.
You can view more image at Akiba Hobby and Cerberus Project
I have to say, this is one of the best figure of Ignis I’ve seen d( > _ < )b
A little bit different than the previous one this time ^^; Another interesting and funny show from Japan ^^
This time they bring 3 transexuals straight from Thailand (Blue), and 3 chosen Japanese actors/comedian (Red) will try and compete against them. There will be 3 rounds, 3 vs 3, and 7 People will judge who, out of the 2 from each round, is the cutest/prettiest.
Just for the info, those 3 guests from Thailand are the winner from some Beauty pageant. So basically they are what you call the best :p You can view the clip below:

Here it is, the review for “Figma Suzumiya Haruhi School Uniform Ver.” by Max Factory, the last of my big haul of the week ^^

Well, I don’t really have much to say on Haruhi, she’s just another amazing Figma release ^^ Compared to Yuki, there’s definitely an improvement, especially the skirt. Unlike Yuki, Haruhi’s skirt is much more flexible, which makes it easier to move her legs further ^^
Accessories wise, Haruhi still has the same format just like the others. In Haruhi’s case you get the trademark Megaphone, and additional “Kantoku” armband. The usual extra pair of hands and face expressions are still included ^^ Paint jobs and details are still amazing as ever, just what you expect from Max Factory.


Although Saber still gets my all-time favourite Figma for now ^^; Anyway, Haruhi is still an amazing Figma to get.
Anyway on with the shots~








Close up~



With different faces~






Action shots ^^~








Hare Hare dance with Saber and Yuki ^^~


Some actions with Saber ^^~
Haruhi: “Join the SOS-Dan or die!!”
Saber: “Nowai!!”

Saber: “Slash!!”
Haruhi: “Phone-Block!!”

Haruhi: “Spinzaku Kick!!”
Saber: “WTF!!??”

Saber: “Ugh…”
Haruhi: “SOS-Dan Rulz~”

Can’t wait for the rest of the SOS-Dan members to come out~( ^ _ ^ )/
The final painted product of the upcoming “Blanc Neige” PVC figure from Shining Wind series is finally out ^^


From Shine’s Blog
Reservation for her should open sometime soon ( ^ _ ^ )/
So, I went to Esplanade the other day to take some photos, as part of my Digital Photography Class “Night Photo” assignment. This is also a chance where I can fully use my new tripod ^^;
I have to say, it’s a great experience for me, since it’s my first time doing this kind of stuff ^^
Took these from the top floor.
Can be better though ^^; First hand experience is always nice ( > _ < )
Just got my “1/100 Gundam Astraea” today ^^

I’ll post the review on it as soon as I finish building it. Look forward to it~ ( ^ _ ^ )/
An amazing room showing a collection of figures, still intact in their boxes ^^ Of course, they’re not mine~XD Wish they were :p
