What I got today...



A Shining Wind Fan Book... It contains...



A Xecty Ein figure, A shining wind fan book, Pin-up posters(not shown, still inside the fan book) A DVD of demo gameplay and the characters (The game is pretty much like the classic sega console games like Shining Tears or Shining Soul), Phone strap.
The pin-up posters:






They're all back-to-back posters... Pretty neat...

Just found out that my NDS was just hiding at the back seat of the car... pretty relieved...

Installing the Gimp image editor software on your Eee PC, follow the link HERE. Have done installing mine but had the trouble of installing properly.

I lost my Nintendo DS w/ SD Gundam G Generation Crossdrive game... I'm sure I just lost it around the house. On the other side, I got my black Asus 701 4G (Eee PC) yesterday.. Friggin' 7in of awesomeness... but heard today that there will be a Pentium M release of it (felt a bit regret from buyin this as it only has a Celeron processor.). Will try to put up review soon depends on my mood.

03


Got my GSC Nendoroid Suzumiya Haruhi figure today. Will post it after the Kamen Rider figures.

Just finished downloading these awesome games which came from Comiket 73, downloaded from tokyotosho. Before I downloaded these games, I was viewing Zeroblade's blog which is why I came across with these games.



[9thNight] Es (Trial Beta)
A 3D mecha musume third-person shooting game...





[Edelweiss] ETHER VAPOR
A coolsome 3D shooting game... Really good. Also includes desktop wallpaper and game OST.



There could be a chance that I'd be addicted to these games.



Bandai Soul of Soft Vinyl Kamen Rider 01 gallery is up.

02


Revoltech Danboard gallery is up.

I was supposed to receive my Masked Rider figures before New Year. I visited the post office for this item last week but in the end, it got delayed.. The Revoltech Danboard was delayed a day or two. Purchased this at play-asia on December 13 and shipped on December 28. Had the long wait cuz they had to prepare something for like 2-4 weeks before shipping their Revoltech Danboard figures.
Anyway, this morning I went to get the Revoltech Danboard at a local FedEx office, which is my courier of choice cuz of their reliable service (though damn expensive shipping fee). Then in the afternoon, went to the public post office to fetch these Masked Rider figures. HLJ(which these Masked Rider figures come from) has got great choices of items than play-asia but the annoying thing there, is that they only ship it thru EMS and SAL. Both shipping methods still end up to be fetched in the post office. Wish they would offer delivery thru FedEx soon...



Reviewing these Soul of Soft Vinyl Masked Rider figures next.

Next items to be received this week :
Play-asia :
GSC Nendoroid Suzumiya Haruhi
Hobbylink Japan :
Bandai MG Turn-A-Gundam
Kaiyodo Fraulein Revoltech Ayanami Rei
Kaiyodo Revoltech Megatron

Akemashite Omedetou Gozaimasu minna-san!!!
(Happy New Year to you all!!)




These are the only pics of fireworks that I took from the neighboring houses. Didn't join my relatives on fireworks cuz I felt so tired... even last year(2006), I didn't join them instead I watched Brighter than Dawning Blue final episode and some anime which is already forgotten.
Anyway, about new year's resolution...
forget it.. It won't happen anyway... ^^;
I hope good fortune would befall upon us this year....
To all my readers/viewers(I don't care how many of you read/view this site, but still...), Thank you for viewing this site. Hope you'll do the same this year.

Plans for this year (2008):
1. To have a PlayStation2.
2. To have an Asus Eee PC w/ WinXp OS when released.
3. To properly learn Php & MySQL, and other programming languages.
4. Lessen figurine purchases.
5. Improve photography skills.

This is now what my room looks like after a year of acquiring bunch of merchandises. (more...)
