For Starters, the most important news :

Happy Birthday Tanaka Reina !!!!

Well i didnt know its her birthday if i didnt take a look at the news updates in the Facebook Group and Forums, gomenasai ne Tanaka-san

Today, is my first ever road violation hearing that i mention few blogs ago.

I arrived way too early at 7 am. while the hearing is at 9 am...but i dont wanna be late and since i only have vague idea about the location of the court, so i took it early just in case i get lost which i did...but i didnt got lost that far away...

So the hearing was exceptionally in time, and fast tho its extremely crowded.

I got fined about....$2.5, its surprisingly...nice of them :)

Well all i can say is...i rather pay the fine at the hearing than bribe the "corrupted"

But one thing bothers me, The court should have a parking spot for motorbikes, its like wth...i need to park outside ? while i know Surabaya maybe safer than Jakarta, i prefer being caution.

And thats all for today :)

PS : Ah, will be waiting Hot Toys Jack Sparrow and Hot Toys Superman on the way, Also Revoltech Danboard Amazon Mini Ver. which i'm currently have them on pre-order sales :)

Figma Strength

And here it is ! Figma Strength The Review; Tho it might be a lousy one.....but lets get on with it..

Figma Strength, one of the (maybe) prominent character design and story in the anime, tho the movie that they include with BRS only shows a bit of her appearance and doesn't even give the slightest clue whether she's an enemy or an ally.

The Box

Yellow Checkered Design..tho i wonder why yellow.......perhaps its because of her eyes color ? well i have no idea seriously.

And this is the back view of the box, which is common with the rest of the BRS line box or any of the figma. It shows the character with some poses that you might want to use when you display her on the shelf or any other places.

Thats how the blister looks ! Pretty simple and easy to see, since both of her "weapon" displayed right next to her...Yup, She's a gorilla...an android gorilla to be simple.

As usual with other figma, she came with multiple palm poses, base, and four black sticks that can be used for posing her gigantic arms...since with some poses, her gigantic arms need some help defying the gravity :(

Her logo/tattoo/symbol, I have no idea to be exact since its seriously still in the dark.

The back view of her body...i really like the bow at the end of her outfit, and the bone-tail which is similar with Dead Master horns but Strength tail is a flexible PVC, even though you cant really adjust on where the tail goes.......

She is my new favorite, well since I left most of my figures at my home..until my other orders comes up, she might be replaced..but don't count on it, I love her gigantic arms <3

And here comes the scoring~

While I really like the gigantic arms and how each of the fingers are poseable, The fingers themselves are kinda fragile and while its quite hard to move at the first time, it became quite loose the next you pose them tho its not that loose (luckily)

On the other hand, I've tried to balanced her with one foot standing without base help and I did it; which is quite a treat since i didn't expect she's able to.

I have lots of fun playing with her thus I can say she deserved an 8/10.

PS : Did I mention that she's the first Figma with clothes that can be casted off ?

THE Loots

The most important loots of my life

Morning Musume - Fukumura Mizuki Merchandise

T-shirt + Wristpad

Keyring

Photosets

Its not as many as i would like, but currently i'm really short on cash :(

Low Quality Pictures ahead, bare with me....

This two pics below is my favorites, since they're metallic sheets

SHINY !!!! * o *

She's an angel indeed <3

This is the t-shirt that i bought tho sadly i got the L size which somehow a bit bigger than i expected...i would order an S size on later order.

There isnt much i can say about the loots, other than i'm so happy about it :3

So this is the rest of the photosets <3

I almost forgot to write it here !!!

HAPPY 15th BIRTHDAY FUKU CHAAAAAAAAAN <3

Wishing You getting more lines and even solo songs also more energy to Your dance, and as for Your character...You already mesmerize me <3

Road Violation

Today, i marked a history of my life...tho its not even worthy to be marked but whatever...

I went into a wrong lane of the roads which deliberately guarded by the police, and as usual as this "beloved" country system works...they are giving hints of "you may bribe", which i clearly decline...since the only amount of money you could get from me is like......$1 only where they may get offended and sue me to a bigger lawsuit...

thus my trial sets at 11-11-2011, a great date...which i hope leads to an easy smooth trial.

Settling In

And so, from my previous post...i'm in another town atm. and just got my net backed up :3

So...while am tryin to get a job soon...there's just a few things i'm able to post and so on...

The only figure i have is Figma Strength..since i left all my figures back at home, and yesterday i just got my Morning Musume - Fukumura Mizuki sets...of Tshirt - Wristband, several photosets, and a keychain...cost a bit, but am happy since this is the first time i'm actually supporting them.

updates on those soon ^_^

Revolting For Life

Life is a bit messy lately due my decisions for moving to another town..hard disagreement from mom, well i can see from her viewpoints...but its not like i havent thought about it, i know its going to be tough...But my life have been easy..i dont dislike it but there are so many things going on that built up my stress around thus i made up my decision.

This made few things to set back, my passion for figure definitely gonna get cut very hard..Tho i'll keep blogging about stuffs that i'm able to.....

such as..The 10th Generation Morning Musume Members are selected; and my dark horse Masaki Sato is chosen :)

There are 4 new members; Kubo Haruna, Ishida Ayumi, Masaki Sato, and....Iikubo Haruna (gotta look again for the last name)

And i've been watching a lot of Gaki no Tsukai series, had a blast tho this early morning while i'm laughing watching them..again, my mom sets the mood to a complete negative for again requesting me to rethought my decision..AFTER we just had final discussion just a few days ago...i'm not angry to her, its just...she should've acknowledge that i've made up my decisions...at least she could be supportive.....

i'll be blogging about them if i have the mood later at night...

Fukumura Mizuki

The latest addition in Morning Musume line, 9th Generation Fukumura Mizuki a.k.a Fuku-chan/Mii-chan/Mizu Pon~ and somehow her chara color is pink replacing/sub Michisige Sayumi ?

The 9th Generation added while the 8th Generation Junjun & Linlin also Kamei Eri graduated, and because Junjun is my most fav member as you can see she have her own page in my blog..its kinda hit me quite a bit thus kinda ignoring the coming of 9th Generation (gomenasai !)

Fukumura Mizuki was in H!P Eggs thus her capability is above average, she even didnt go through the usuall audition...well i mean she audition for it but she got cut in the middle for some reason..no idea, i havent done watching the clips yet...i havent even finish downloading it.....

But i must say, she's extremely cute <3 And lately, i can say that she's hot too @_@

She struck me in Hello Pro Time episode 5 where Tanaka Reina bring her and Suzuki Kanon to karaoke ! It was her first *gyaaa* lol...i meant first time going into karaoke bar~ She was nervous when requesting the room and noticed that she's left handed !!!

Suzuki Kanon kinda doubting on her being shock when she entered the karaoke room panicking asking if she's real XD i mean like asking if she's really shock...lol and the food ordering was funny :3

And it didnt stop there.......she's ordering a song, and didnt notice that she havent turn on the mic until reina point it out...lol She have a wonderful voice >w<

I cant even think what else to write about her since all i can say is, she's the whole complete package.

Oh...and my gf is kinda looks like her a bit <3

Updates !

So i'm updating new information about her :D

Blood type : O (yay, same as me)

Height : 150.8

So i've been watching some of the clips and i noticed that she did apply for the 9th generation Morning Musume members but cut short and when the announcement of those who are chosen as 9th Gen members, Tsunku the producer announce that there's another person that will be joining the 9th Gen member from H!P eggs member...at that moment, even Fukumura didnt know that she was picked..thus when her name was called out..she surprised and began crying (i'm pretty sure its happy tears...lol) and said her grateful for being chosen...And for me, i'm grateful that i'm able to......hmm......support her from a far...lol.

But i'm planning to buy few of her merchandise such as shirt, photos, wristband, and others...i just wish i'm able to watch Morning Musume while she's still in the group...please HP let them perform in somewhere near....such as Singapore or even Malaysia if Indonesian isnt included as good future concert plan.

After i watch her Greeting DVD and Hello Pro Time eps. 20~ i'm adding new information :D

1. "Fuku-chan" was given by Tsunku (Hello Project Producer)

Prize F - Boa Hancock

So here we are again with my latest figure, Ichibankuji Prize F - Boa Hancock which is quite similar with the previous Prize F, with some different design/color/misc such as :

• Blue Eye Color, which is odd...i dont remember her eyes color is blue @_@
• Kuja Pirates Pattern on her skirt
• Larger Eyes
• Larger "Eyes"
  
• A minor color addition on her upper dress button
• Different background paper

Thats about it....i think..I actually prefer the winking eyes from the previous ones compared to the latest ones..but i wont argue it much since i lost the previous ones...

I'll let you decide, which is better ? The First or The Later ?

The First Prize F

The Latest Prize F

it seems the picture itself, cant be opened in larger size....guess in the next post, i'll post pictures in large size then....mark this post as the end of medium size pic post.

Sen Yuurei no Matsuri 2011 ~Day Two~

Here we go again, Day Two Sen Yuurei no Matsuri 2011 !

Sorry for a late post, but its a hectic trying to choose pictures that i'm going to put in the post @_@

I came early in morning again this time, yet i somehow missed the opening band and its already gather lots of crowd while the MC already giving some speech or sort of advertisement about the event.

And we goes to the first show, which is cosplay cabaret...have no idea what are they playing...but they seems like touhou sort of play...kinda simple but there's lots of action..fighting, dancing, singing, drama~

Then followed with OPJ (Opera Pan Japan) which is a cosplay drama theaterical or something like that....their cosplay mostly are from tokusatsu series as you can see from the picture below and i must say, they are quite entertaining as they actually have a storyline and gags

i love those shocker soldiers !!!!!!

Later on, another band performance by Kyuubi. Look who's there that i'm familiar with ?! At first i thought "hmmm no way" then she said her name..its Tika from On Project ! or i should say an ex-member of On Project!

I wonder why she left the group, but in the band...i dont think she would shine as fast as she would in the dance group, but oh well..good luck :)

After that i take a break and scout around for cosplayers, I must say that there are lots of them but sadly i wish there were more ghost related cosplay since this is Sen Yuurei no Matsuri...but i dont complain much since there are more great cosplay than the previous events.

First, we have the maid ! A cute looking maid that is......she'll snatch your soul while pouting in nyan pose~

Then there's this..duo swordman(?), bishounen dakara~ great-awesome cosplay tho..they really put a lengthy effort for their costume, make up, wig, and props.

And here is my fav cosplayer ! a random female ninja from leaf village; Why she become my favorite ? well..she's cute..tho i dont think ninja use sneakers.......lol but the main thing is..she still do pose even when her ankle hurts..she even having a hard time walking but she pulled out a smile for the camera *hiks*

Then we have luka ! tho i initially thought she's cosplaying louise...should've know it from the group of vocaloids running around....she post a comment on my facebook album confirming it..which surprise me, a pleasant surprise it is :3

Then while i was still walking around, i found rinoa giggling, and i get the shot...she looks pretteh XD

And below, our beautiful cosplayer competition judge ! She's cosplaying Tear from Tales of Abyss, she's pretty cold judge but impressive nonetheless.

Gedou Shinkenreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed ! great outfit and great props...with great attitude...what doesnt it have ? sugoi !

One of the awesome obake cosplay, they come in a group...or duo...cant remember clearly. The make up, outfit and props they use are in another level from other cosplayers.

One of the player from OPJ, his outfit is pretty well made..and he jump off the stage which is pretty high and still land graciously !

Dont slash me !!! EEEEeeeeeeeekkk !!!!

No idea, but the awesomeness aura reeks out as you can see from the pic...the detail of the mask is incredible.

White knight something....pretty alright, detailed..and the spear is can be split into two !

Epic cosplay of a zombie, same like the above..i have no idea if they are in the same group but the make up of this cosplayer is impressive, she/he even put the music for her advantage; Definitely the top 5 cosplayers if i'm the judge.

Dead Master cosplay !!!! Eventhough she doesnt have the looks for DM, but she gets her dress, scythe, horns and shoes as she should...so its a great cosplay, wish she put more effort on her expression tho....

Taiko Drummerrrrrrrrrrs !! I was right in the front line looking at them and record them in my cellphone (tho sadly i wont be uploading it for now coz its take ages to upload it, unless someone can tell me how to reduce the size without butchering the video quality as the sound quality is already as bad as it is).

They perform consecutively for about 20 minutes non stop playing in different pose, dancing while beating the drums...impressive !

Then another band, Jakarta Keion Club which consist of four Japanese and one Indonesian; From what i heard, they dont take salary for their performance O_O

The female vocalist is funny ! She quickly break the ice with the audience with her joke in Indonesian...then when the guitarist sang Seiya Phantasy, the crowd goes wild...even i catch the heat, shouting along the song...its the greatest moment of my life; I want to hear them more !

After that all, we continue again to second part of cosplay competition, Ah do note that not all cosplayers performing are in this post..some are unable to post coz blurriness of the shot :(

There are a lot of Tokusatsu cosplayers tho @_@ Here we have...ermm agito ? i like his belt..its shinning.....lol

This is another obake cosplay that i like, titled "Angel of Death". Pretty gore cosplay because he brought a head chained on a steel chain and he "eat" the head....talk about brutal...hahahaha

An impressive white knight cosplay...i really like the design of the char and the sheild, its looks perfect !

And the final day of the event, i stayed long enough to listen one of the song sang by the band "Samurai Blue" which have a group of fans gathering in front of the stage.

And thats it, i got too tired and went home...am sorry that i'm unable to cover the Obake Theater and Shuriken from day one along with Amakusa, Bon Odori, and the Hanabi from the day two..hontouni gomenasai :(

But lack of spaces to sit around really cramp my legs...and i read that some customers of obake yashiki complained about line cutting and the long wait period...guess its way above their prediction...

This conclude of my reviews of Sen Yuurei no Matsuri 2011, Thankyou for reading ! And see you on the next event, which i think around 18-25 December in Monas....tho i cant be there at 25th cause of my friends wedding.

Sen Yuurei no Matsuri 2011 ~Day One~

So, i'm back ! lol....sorry for those who're waiting (like there's any - _ -)

I've been attending the latest japanese event hold by Nippon Club from Binus University; Its Sen Yuurei no Matsuri which literally means Festival of 1000 Ghost, tho sadly i'm unable to hold out til the end of the event since i've been there from morning...

At first day, we had lots of band, quizzes, karaoke competition, eating dorayaki competition, a katana-showdown, and more bands.

So as soon as i arrived there, i'm greeted with a band "Tomodachi" (if i'm not mistaken) which is pretty good for an opening band :)

There arent many people at that time even though its Saturday, guess its still too early somehow...

Followed by another band "Ohayou" that dressed in their PJs, coz you know...its ohayooooou...lol

They are quite great, the vocalist is small but her voice is loud.

Next ! Samurai Showdown !!! well not really...its an introducing on how to sheath and release the katana from the saya (kanata..err holder ?) and also demonstration on how sharp it is by cutting down tatami into several pieces..its quite a treat seeing that live.

More info on them Go To here

Then after that, there's a competition for anime dubbing, some of them are pretty good and the judges are pretty solid.

Above is the pic for the entire participant for the dubbing competition, which i dont know who won it since i went home before the announcement...but i'm pretty confident its the third girl from the left (the left side of the girl with white hair and green cape)

Above is the whole pic again along with the judges, those two males with blue shirt, the long hair dub as Suneo from Doraemon and the short hair dub as Kogoro Mouri from Detective Conan along with the women between them dub Naruto in Naruto and Luffy in One Piece.

And followed by another band, Honey Beat ! I forgot what songs that they sing..sadly when i went to buy their cd, their staff already pack their stuffs away...i mean the Honey Beats staff, not the event staff...was lookin forward listening it, but i guess its a no-go for now...

Their performance is rock solid

After that, there's another show...tho i wonder if this gonna be covered by any TV station coz there isnt any TV crew around as i can see...

"Wish Come True"

An event held by Nuu Green Tea, giving free stuffs as their campaign...but somehow i kinda doubt it since i rarely hear about it and the first winner who gets a scooter says something sort of advertisement.

But anyway, a well known actress Titi Kamal is one of the host/guest speaker..she looks different than usual but meh~; Then they held a contest "Who can drink the most"

The winner is the guy on the right for drinking 5 bottles

A participant vomit for over drinking, and she only drank 1-2 bottles.

Then there's a karaoke competition, which all of it consist of Japanese songs; There ar

e a few solid ones, and there're alot more that need practice..but they got balls for it, so applaud to them.

This time, i record them !!! But let me warn you...do not open it in high volume....since i record them using my cellphone...which is quite bad......since the sound sometimes went zerk...and pardon me for shaky images since i held them with my hand only :(

mehh it seems that it took a loooooooong time to upload video...so this is the only one for now, unless for some reason someone asking for a spesific video, then i might upload it later on.

As for the final event in day one (for me), its an instrumental band "Momiji". They are quite great, but its just not my type of song genre they're playing with.....

While we're waiting for the karaoke video to uploaded, lets talk about the stands in the event; First we have the usual dorayaki stand, takoyaki stand, okonomiyaki stand, ice cream stand, obake yashiki stand a.k.a. ghost house~ sadly i'm unable to experience it since i'm busy covering the on-going events...

There's also a small comiket, which consist of few artist..like around 4-5 stands...pretty sad but its great in a way that i never seen them anywhere else before ! bought 2 doujins...which kinda interest me.

There's a corner for draw your face into a manga ! which i was going to take, but kinda held back at that moment for obviously the line is pretty long....but i'll get it in another day.

And then...hummm...ahh ! there's a manga paper for sale..which i have no idea what are they trying to do beside selling the manga paper...and there are lots of people drawing in their booth, and i mean not their staffs..everyone ! and some of them have pretty good drawings.

Also i spot a figure stand that sell bootlegged figures..........its like WTF, coz seriously that stand alone leave a little dent to event credibility..at least for me.

And last but not least, there's that catch a fish using a small round shape of paper thingy...well you know...that........catch a fish game.

Loose tight HG FOOOOOOOOOOO!

Miku busy playing her cellphone

The Loot from Day One

Do read the second day later on nee~ its full of cosplayers ! cute ones and cool ones !!! even scary ones........

*all pics are copyrighted by me mwahahhahahah those who is/are the model/s may use it as their will.
