Final Fantasy Mini Trading Arts Vol.3

Tidus have a slightly damage eye that I use P.S to help him patch up abit. Dun know why I didn't notice it till I took a photo of him.



Final Fantasy Mini Trading Arts Vol.2

Continue from Previous post

One thing I notice when my eyeys are tired, all the photo I take tend to be too bright. The quality of this set is much better than vol 1. which have some overflow paint and Rinoa face is a disaster!

I need to get nicer looking back drop and a len with a bigger aperture if I want to continue doing this >.<.

Keroro Pekopon Shinryaku Nikiki Episode 1 Trading Figures by Bandai

Can't remember each box contain how many of them but like many other bandai trading figurine box, you cannot complete a set with just one. Each box only contain 1 secret and there are 2 in each set >.<

This is not my first set of "candy" toys but it really get me started on Trading figures fews years back thanks to the hunt to complete it....

Each of the figurine in this set came from a cut scene from the anime and they are really funny and cute! My major complain for most bandai figurines is always the paints jobs and this set is no exception.

See for urself

Space in Singapore....

The living condition of my trading figure is slowing degrading due to my poor planing and Indiscreet buying..... until I cannot even squeeze a single set in anymore.



Below is what the others resident say....

Death Note CaseFile#01 Nendoroid Petit

After some delay, finally manage to get it last week. I am a big fan of Manga and have been following the series since Volume 1. Somehow the dark tone of the manga series is so burn in my brain that I cannot stop laughing when I see all the character after "nendo" treatment.



I got you now L

Mecha Musume vol 3 by Konami

The repainted version for Mecha Musume vol 3 had the "most" changes from the normal version for this series. Beside a change in color, one of them had her head and weapon changed and the other got a new hat plus a newhair style.

I only purchase this 2 from the repaint version due to the space limitation of my display case.

Mecha Musume vol 2.5 by Konami

Continue from yesterday is the repaint version of Mecha Musume vol 2. Only one figure have some minor changes and it is one of the more rare one from the random assorted box set. Manage to find the completed set online at quite a reasonable price.



Mecha Musume vol 2 by Konami

It is tough to catalog trading figures when the series had a repaint version. Took me some research on the net to serperate them.
Each non-variant character have a extra part to form the "secret", but I am just too lazy to dig into my store room to find the parts for it to take the photo.

If you really wana see it, juz refer to the next post for the repainted version.

1/6 Limit Gunz

Design by Mine Yoshizaki who create one of my favourite anime Sergent Keroro. The detail of the gun is just too amazing to ignore.

non scale Jingai Makyo Ignis by Yamato Creative Lab

Yamato Creators’ Labo #016 non-scale Ignis PVC figure is from the eroge “Jingai Makyo” ( 塵骸魔京 ) published by Nitro+.

I have never played any eroge release by Nitro+ but find many of their character design very beautiful like Al Azif and Etheldreda from demonbane, Rimi Sakihata from Chaos:Head. Both series had a anime adaption which you can check it out later.

Since I cannot find any cast-off photo for this PVC, I guess I just had to do it myself :)

Petit Collect! Duel Maid by Atelier-Sai

Toys release by Atelier-Sai wasn't very appealing to me until the release of the Duel Maid series. The petit collection of the Duel Maid is around 6 cm tall that came with 2 set of hand and arms. Each maid have joints at the shoulder, hand, neck and waist which make them very poseable compare to other Petit series I have seen so far.

Normal Version

Macross Frontier SD figure from Banpresto Ichiban Kuji

There alway people selling Banpresto Ichiban Kuji online but never cheap. I'm lucky to be able to get this at a bargain.



Dynasty Warrior 6 (Shin Sangoku Musō 5) Trading Figure set Vol 1

Since I recently brought the Vol 2 for this series, it is time to re-shoot them. The set is base on the 5 installment from the Koei Dynasty warrior series. Really glad that they base the characeor design for the set on the PS2 version instead of the X360 or else I will be paying second time for the "clone" character that Koei throw at me.

This series is pretty well made with great details and above average paint job. My only complain will be Taishi Ci is bending down because of its weak support point. Refer to the closeup photo to see for yourself.

1/8 Horo by G.S.C

Horo from Spice and Wolf, the popular light novel/anime that recently end the 2nd anime season. I am praying hard it will be renew for a 3rd.

There is surprising very few Horo figures in the market and non of them are able recreate her face in 3D prefectly. I prefer the G.S.C playful face over the rest until the Volks M.O.E version arrive.

1/5 Uesugi Kenshin by FREEing

I never played Sengoku Lance or any other game from the popular Lance (Rance) game series.  When GSC homepage show her preview photos, I knew there is not way I am going to miss this.
