What a Bargain!

24 11 2009

[ALTER 1/8 Yuki Nagato and AlphaxOmega 1/8 Klan Klang]

This late post highlights two acquisitions for surprisingly really good prices. You can also consider this a semi-filler post since I lost all of my data, pictures, miscellaneous items. I backed up a considerable amount of files, but I haven’t checked how recent the backup goes up to.

Belated April Haul [Large]

24 09 2009

Boob laser finish ftw


There are many notable acquisitions in this haul, but I’d say that Kos-Mos is the centerpiece of it all. Once again to reiterate to readers – both regular and passerby – that my haul posting is not geared to make people salivate with envy nor is it some attempt to boast at what I own. I merely post what I like because I like it and can do it. Salivating is at your discretion. This is a NSFW post due to the nature of some of the items that is part of this haul. I’ll give you a hint – there is a particular Queen’s Blade solicitation bonus.
Depending on certain extraneous factors going on in life, I may or may not post something in the near future. I’ll just have to wait and see the outcome of things, but this is a heads up that I’ll be around but not really…

Thanks dude for the cool picture!

Belated April Haul [Medium]

8 09 2009


After being poked at by someone *ahem* for having the brown packages as a primary picture/teaser for this post and another one, I decided to put up a picture of one of the figures in this haul XD

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly ~ Figure Store Review Edition ~

6 09 2009

Disclaimer

These store critiques serve as the sole basis to educate and inform those with as broad a range of an online shopping experience in the anime otaku market from nil to expert about how green or adept my own experiences have been molded through my interactions with these stores. As always, there might or might not be a severe discrepancy to other reviews of exact stores that you may have read or found out in some way. While each individual takes from his or her own experience, I am merely adding my own two cents to help broaden the spectrum of the integrity of stores that you shop or may potentially shop at. Be as it may, this is the interwebs and you are more than welcome to take my ramblings with a grain of salt. In the same token, I am an insanely hardcore collector and will simply not shop at certain places unless I am, ultimately, left with no other alternatives.

Honesty is the best policy and I am a brutally honest person. This store review will be unlike what you have experienced before as I don’t plan to sugar coat or skim through the superficial surface to expose what I feel is pertinent information about where you go throw your hard earned cash at.

1 year and 478 figures later…

15 06 2009


Here is a recap of my hauls tracked through thumbnails and posts that summarize a year of collecting for me. I’ll try my best to remember things, but my humble beginnings are a bit shrouded in mystery and I can’t exactly pinpoint the first day I started to collect figures or the very last figure I got before I hit the yearly mark.

WARNING: This is a very heavy image post and is not advisable for those who have slow internet connections.

What does 30 lbs. of sexy look like?

5 03 2009

There’s a glimpse of the sexy video game collection. I think the video game collection can give the figure collection a run for it’s money.

It was funny to see the boxes stacked and taped on top of each other. I was a little horrified to read on the notice that it was left at a neighbor’s apartment. I am very uneasy whenever it is left at someone other than my filipino neighbor’s apartment. Also, I don’t want to feel like I am every imposing on anyone, but the deliverers are always reluctant to haul the package back to their trucks. Ugh.

It’s raining nendoroids + Ink Nijiharara

22 02 2009

(Good Smile Company – WF 2008 Joymax, Kyouka Midarezaki, Re Mie, and complete Lucky Star Vol. 2 petite set; pictured later is Clay Hobby Japan limited Nijihara Ink)

This is a rather late post for this haul considering that this shipment had arrived earlier last week and the rest arriving sometime this week as well. Now’s a better time than ever to post about this. Relative to my old haul, this is probably a light sprinkle.

Long over due haul=byproduct of procrastination

8 02 2009

Please ignore the stacked boxes of figure against the wall

Long overdue haul that I’ve had since February 3, but things just kept getting in the way. Oh yeah, I procrastinated as well.
