Assassin's Creed: Ezio Auditore Figure

Finally! My first figure! I'm so happy :D The force is strong with me now that i've Ezio by my side xD

Bought it for 23€ at Fnac, i guess it wasn't that expensive, although i think they should have done a better paint job, you can see what i mean on the picture bellow ( the throwing knifes and the shoulder part ).

Among all the Ezio figures on the shop at the time this was the one with the best paint job, i couldn't even bring myself to buy the white version cuz it looked so bad >___<

Also, the figure doesn't seem to have much mobility on the legs, could barely put him how he is in the picture bellow.

I wonder if it's just my impression, but the joints don't seem to easily allow me to move the members. I had to force them a bit sometimes, was even afraid i could break it >___< Huum but i suppose maybe it's a good thing? At least the body parts will stay were i want them to and don't fall xD

Overall i'm happy with my purchase and having loads of fun playing with Ezio ^^

Culture:Japan

Culture:Japan is a TV show directed and presented by Danny Choo which brings Japanese Pop Culture to the world and features contents that folks in and outside of Japan would enjoy. Currently broadcasts on Tokyo MX TV in Japan and across Asia on the Animax Network, but hopefully it'll be available worldwide soon ^^ Can't wait for it, as i really love what i have seen of the show till now, and of course whatever comes from Danny Choo must be good! :P

And since we are talking about Mr. Danny, let me also say a few things about this. It's been quite a while since i discovered hes website, and i must say that it has been a positive influence in my life. I used to be in what he calls 'the comfort zone', wanted to do things but ended up never starting them and making excuses and thinking 'i will do it tomorrow', i knew what was happening but didn't have the will to change it, this among other things like not having clear objectives in life, not knowing what to do in the future, everything seemed so blurry and confusing. One day i came across his website and immediately got addicted to it, but only a bit later i found his motivational articles, that was when my life changed for good! All hes good advices and its own example of success showing that anyone can materialize their dreams if they fight for them and never quit, it all encouraged me to become more determined and focused on the things i want to achieve in life, i'm really thankful to Danny, he's become sort of an hero and idol to me <3 It's also thanks to him that i decided to create this blog, so that i was able to share my passions with others and with you that are on the other side of the screen, and that is something that truly makes me happy ^^

Give it a try in case you are experiencing the same things i did, it might help you. But anyway i have written to much, enough of talky talk xD Bellow the official page, trailer and Culture:Japan Episode 0. Enjoy minna-san~ :h

Super Sonico Figure

Two days ago i showed you the soon to be released visual novel game SoniComi that features Nitro Plus’ music department mascot Super Soniko. Now i bring you Super Sonico Shimapan Ver. 1/7 PVC figure, a re-production of her past figure which will be released with the well taken updates ^^

Orchid Seed has done well as the colors were softened to tone up and accentuate her voluptuous curves, not to mention her undergarments are now the prized “shimapan” (striped panties) instead of the white thong. Her apron, like the past figure, is still removable and the cake and slippers are now pink instead of brown and white. They also fixed the ugly gaps on her shoulders.

New cake ( left ) vs old cake ( right )

Old white slippers VS the new pink slippers

The old figure

err ... i really do not like that thong ...

The gaps on the shoulders can be seen here

— Description from Manufacturer —

Sculpted by JYOJY （OX )

Assistance by Hiroomi Shiga and Ranmaru

With the announcement of her PC game coming up in the summer of 2010, Super Soniko’s popularity is higher than ever before! The super-popular Valentine version from Orchid Seed is back, and now she’s wearing Shimapan (striped underwear)!

The new combination of shimapan and just an apron is too powerful to resist! Sonokio has been refined in a number of areas, and the new combination of colors between her apron, cake and underwear make for an amazing set!

Don’t miss out on your chance to add this super-powered Soniko to your collection today!

Please note: This figure has been completely redone from the Valentine version with new molds and refined sculpting. Mold lines as well as imperfections after cast-off have been reduced for a more perfect figure!

You can pre-order her here or here.

Dead Master Update

New photos of dead master figures on www.dannychoo.com. I really love the photos that Danny Choo takes, they are soo detailed and have just the right lightning, not that i'm some kind of specialist in photography, i just like it ^^ Someday i have to get one of those o soo cool cameras, this is when the time that i will be willing to give an arm and a leg for one comes ahah Anyway enough of talky talky, let's see the photos.

Huum think i would prefer if the horns and the wings were all black instead of having that transparent touch. But i'm guessing maybe it's rubber or some kind of elastic material so that it doesn't break when hits something?

The nendoroid looks really cute. I love how it can be seen a little greenish color in her hair on all of the photos ^^ Are you planning on getting one of these figures?

Black Rock Shooter Figures

I don't have words to describe the awesomeness of BRS. I'm just completely in love with all of it. Even before the anime came out, the world was gripped by BRS fever, it's amazing how it has grown. Let's take a look at the figures shall we? :3
