Recently my first Nendoroid Petit set arrived, the Vocaloid Series #01 by GoodSmile Company. I had pre-ordered from Hobby Search for 5,700 yen or around $65.86. I didn’t think the price was so bad until the shipment notice came. EMS shipping is starting to get too expensive, but this was something I [...]

Time sure does fly, it’s already the Miku Hatsune’s 2nd birthday (or 18th depending on how you look at it), in Japan at least. Us fans here in the West are a little behind in time. This year I’m just going to post up some of my favorite Miku videos. I know I’ve [...]

Today an onslaught of small to large thunderstorms came through our town. They each lasted around a half hour or so with about a half hour break in between them and lasted until just a while ago. During the worst part of the storm we had some rather large hail. I had [...]

So, just a little while ago the USPS delivery man knocked on my door and delivered a small enveloped package to me. While I was signing for my package he asked me what I bought from China. Of course, I hesitated and said “shirts and stuff”, knowing full well that the package said [...]

What better way to start the new year than reviewing my very first Nendoroid. I ordered her from Hobby Search and she cost me about 2,715 Yen, not including shipping. She’s already sold out… again, but you might be able to find her elsewhere. Miku Hatsune is probably the most popular of [...]

Well, it’s 2009 already in most of the world, but I’m still stuck in the past. I got lucky and these two figures arrived this morning, just in time to be my last arrivals for the year. This ends my first year as a figure collector, and I’m ending the year happy. [...]

Now that I’ve done my reviews for Rin Kagamine, Len Kagamine and Miku Hatsune Figmas (whose individual reviews can be found by clicking the links), I can get all three of them together for group pictures. At first I thought about doing a “figma theater” type of post along the lines of what DannyChoo [...]

Yesterday I received an impulse buy from J-List, which I believe was a bit overpriced but I couldn’t resist. First time I’ve used SAL too. I remember a while back when I saw a bunch of figures from Wonfest that I wanted to get if possible, and if I’m correct I posted a [...]

So, I haven’t posted lately, been lacking something to post about… well… we recieved Tsukasa Hiiragi & our Kanu figma’s in the mail recently, and I must say I am quite happy with them.
Scared me at first when upon opening Figma Tsukasa her leg fell off, … but it was easily put back in place. [...]

Here she is, one of my most highly anticipated figmas. First off I have to say she’s probably the highest quality figma I own so far. The paintwork is just awesome, her hair pieces and face fit perfectly, the stand fits in her back and everything is just great. Her boots are nice and glossy [...]
