Saber’s Bubble Struggle

Posted by Persocom on Jun 14, 2010 in Figure Fun | 13 comments

Whew, 8 days without a post, what’s wrong with me? I have plenty of things to post so I guess it’s time to get back into the swing. I blame it on the weather. It’s been either too hot or too stormy to be motivated to do anything. I really don’t enjoy Summer as much as I’d like to. Anyways, some of my Figmas have been on the shelf doing nothing but collect dust, and sometimes one or two in particular gather a bit too much dust because I get lazy with dusting things that aren’t on my desk (which is mostly PVCs, Revoltechs and Shinkis). Saber in particular had a lot of dust build up to the point where dusting just wouldn’t do the trick anymore, and I plan on using her in a post doing battle with a Busou Shinki soon, so I had to get her cleaned up. I decided it’s about time I introduce another category called Figure Fun, rather than just using Figures for every post that has figures in it. I’ll also break figure posts into the category of Figure Reviews, that way you know what to expect a little better. I guess I should have done this long ago.

Blog Upgrade/Moving In Progress

Posted by Persocom on Feb 9, 2009 in Misc | 15 comments

Hey everyone, sorry for the lack of posts lately, but I’m finally getting the process of moving my blog to wordpress and getting my own domain name under way. I’m pretty new to the whole process so it’s taking me a while to make up my mind about things and get everything set up the way I want it. When everything is done I’ll be sure to post the link and inform everyone on my blogroll that doesn’t see my post that I’ve moved. It might take a while, so for now I’ll keep posting here, just a quick post here to check in and let everyone know what’s going on. The new domain will be http://animaticfigmation.com but I wouldn’t bother going there for a while yet. Yes, it may seem I’m jumping on the bandwagon, and maybe I am in a way, but you’ve gotta admit it looks better than http://persocom-san.blogspot.com If anyone has advice for me about wordpress or anything else regarding this matter I’d be glad to hear it, this is my first blog and the first time I’ve owned a domain name and all that. I’m still waiting on a couple packages, and now I know why I choose EMS whenever possible. Maybe I’ll get luck when I check the mail today…

Picture of Saber from Gelbooru, yes that’s Saber.

Snow Daze

Posted by Persocom on Dec 17, 2008 in Figures, Life | 9 comments

So a few days ago it started snowing, and it finally stuck around instead of melting. I thought I’d get some pictures, unfortunately the mountains were covered in cloud when I went out to get pictures of them, so none this time. It snowed for a couple days, still have some left over but a lot of it melted today. The temperature has been just below zero for the last couple nights, during the day the it’s more bearable. That would be just fine normally, but the 2nd day of snow, our gas furnace died. It didn’t just go out, we had a furnace guy come over and estimate the cost, and he said we’re better off getting a brand new one. We still haven’t gotten it fixed/replaced yet, so we had to have our son stay over at grandma’s at night until everything is taken care of. We set up space heaters and have been using the stove to keep warm for now… Were hoping to get it fixed today but it didn’t happen. It’s really just bad timing, as we’ve already done our Christmas shopping. But, worse things have happened. I really didn’t even want to blog about our little crisis at all, and rather just post nice pictures of snow up. We’re making due though, and hopefully tomorrow everything will be back to normal. Luckily it got warmer today and tomorrow is going to be even warmer, so things won’t be so bad. I would have more pictures but I haven’t been in the right mindset to get much more than this. Hopefully after the heater gets fixed we get some more snow though, it usually doesn’t stay very long around here, and I really want to make a snowman with my son this winter. This wasn’t enough to make a snowman, we tried. The snow doesn’t pack all that well either.

One of these days I’ll get some pictures of the mountains, they look great after a good snow, especially Pikes Peak. I’m still not used to living near mountains though, since we’ve only been out here for just over a year. I planned to take more figures outside for pictures, but my camera decided to not function properly when I got to the second figure, and then my son had friends come over and play in the yard so I figured I’ll just hold off pictures until another day. I really don’t care for snow too much, but it’s not as common as where I used to live so I’m starting to like it more. Summer here was just thunderstorm after thunderstorm, at least snowstorms are pretty. This area misses a lot of snowfall because the majority of it gets dumped in the mountains. Where I come from, winter is a lot more harsh than here. We’ll be lucky if there’s any snow for Christmas at all really. I guess that’s all I have to post for now. I thought about doing a series of “A week in..” or “A Day in..” posts but I’m not sure it’d be very interesting here.

Figma Addiction:D

Posted by Riiana Doon on Aug 30, 2008 in Figures | 1 comment

So, overall, we have bought many figma, and only 1 revoltech, and although I am not dissatisfied with the revoltech, for some reason I just really like figma.
This of course will not keep me from buying revoltech, just prefer figma, that’s all, who’s in agreement here?
(Shown here is the Saber figma, and Dark Saber Revoltech)
