Xecty ~ Goddess of the Wind

September 28, 2010

She arrived just in the nick of time really, just before I came back to Leicester on sunday. She arrived in a huuuuge box. Biggest box I’ve got through the mail I think hehe. Biggest figure box too I think… she seems bigger than 1/6th scale, in my opinion, but I don’t have as many 1/6th as I do 1/8th, so could be wrong. Definately my biggest figure to date though.
I’ll have to box her back up for transporting on sunday, but I couldn’t not open her XD She’s too pretty. She is magnificent. A fine specimen. She’s got a great figure for a figure XD Tony Taka art is good like that, they’re not scarily Clamp thin lol.

Such a cute face :) I do love Tony Taka artwork, ecchi though it may be XD

In the last week + Extra Loot

November 4, 2009

(Goddamn…. Why the hell didnt this post on the 2nd like it was meant to…?) I was meaning to post my Supernatural loot sooner than now, but I’ll do it with my other stuff, Hoi-hoi-san, mid-build Zaku, annnnnnd the yummy Tenka Taihei.

zaku

I got the body and head done, and my fingers were feeling so raw after threading the rings onto the tubes, I thought I'd call it a day and continue tomorrow.

The level of detail on this is crazy high! Sooo much better than my MG Gelgoog from 1997. This was released 2007, going by the box, a 10 year gap… seems so long ago…. Inside his chest sits Char, AND his chair-compartment-thing(Captain Scarlet style!) moves backwards and forwards on a little switch on his back, very discreet, theres two panels on the front that move up and down too. So much detail!!!!!!!

zaku2

Head on.

I love that the bits on the side of the head, body and legs are on bendy tubes, tis beyond epic. And his eye moves! I think I’ve decided this Zaku’s a he. Some go one way, some go the other lol.

hoihoi

Hoihoi!!!!!!!!!

HOI HOI! She was a bitch to make lol. The hair… still a bit paranoid to pose her much due to the hair might pop out lol. She’s lovely. So cute. The feet joints could be a little more secure also. But otherall, super sweet kit. And would I get another? I think so!!!!!!!!!

packet

I was a little apprehensive about trying this, last time I tried red bean curd I didn't like it much.

tenka taihei

I won't lie, I bought it *mainly* because it looked like Taiyaki lol.

Ofc, when its half eaten, you can’t see it as much, but you can see the indentations lol. It was SUPER yummy. Way nicer than the last red bean paste/curd I had. The thin pancake layer coating the red bean paste, with a sweet chestnut paste filling in the middle. Not so big on the chestnut, but the red bean was YUMMY. I will definately be buying more next time I’m in London.

close up

There, you can see the layers, I forgot to take a pic before I started nibbling haha.

sup loot

I know you guys won’t care about hot guys, but this(Supernatural) is our fanservice lol. All the comedy and chickflick moments(that Dean says he doesnt want, but always seems to start em haha.) The scary looking pendant in the middle is Deans pendant, comes into play in the 5th season. Cas has use for it. Still haven’t read slash fics, but I’m sure I’ll get to a point where the pull of Destial will be too strong LOL. Anyways, yeah, those are the badges n stuff I got from expo, lots of photos n stuff, but I already have on my computer lol.

Thats it for now, Supernatural time!!!!!!!!!!!

Kotobukiya 4Leaves Tease + Moelicious Tama-nee

March 29, 2009

4leaves_p

Kotobukiya teasing us… It’s *fairly* safe to say that the girl on the right is Chizuru from Kanokon. But the other two? I don’t know… Who’s the girl with the long hair??? Or the girl with the hat and long dress??? The hair style of the girl on the right reminds me of (Nice Boat)Katsura from School Days. And the small amount of hair you can see on the middle girl reminds me of a character from one of the Ef Tale of’s. Possibly eyepatch?

How many figures will a 360 Elite buy?

Image comes from Amazon

One of my biggest dilemma’s over the past year or so is, whether or not I should buy an Xbox 360. xJaymanx suggested I make a post about it, so I did, hehe. When I get one, it’ll almost definately be an Elite… So about £230 for the console itself, not in a bundle, in a bundle deal it would probably be like… £245, £260… I’m not worried about the games that would come in the bundle, since they’d be crap ones, probably sport games that the shop couldn’t shift on their own. I’m going by Gamestation, Amazon, GAME prices, since they’d be the places I’d most likely get one. So… onto the question… how many figures that I really want, not impulse buys, can a 360 Elite buy?

Kotobukiya Shana Swimsuit ver 1/6th figure + The New Doctor

January 8, 2009

On the same day I recieved my beloved Makoto I got Shana too. An impulse buy from amazon.co.uk, £9.99 plus about £3-4 shipping, was an uber-bargain for a 1/6th scale figure. Released back in April 2007, I’m not sure how available she is, but I still feel lucky getting her for this price.
