Yay! Finally! Finally managed to obtain Figma Shamal after a little mishap with product stock last summer. She was originally supposed to be in my collection along side with Signum and Saber deformate (article). She came along side of Tenko Kuugen and finally split my reviews into two articles.

Ah, what a nice warm fall day! Not a single cloud sky, or signs of chilliness in sight. It was absolutely gorgeous, along with the trees. The weather even influenced a R/C boat enthusiast to play around with his little boat. And of course, I can’t leave without figures since I need them for photography purposes.

Figma Black Rock Shooter acquired! Figma Black Rock Shooter was delayed from early summer, until late October. The main otaku group around the world obtained her much earlier then I have due to the different supplier. I got mine from my local Anime stop.
I saw one more Black Rock Shooter for someone to obtain in the Ottawa region. Go get her before she disappears! I saw her infront of the cash register :).

Ah, a few more days of warmth before Canadian Winter comes in. The trees are beginning to turn color and had even got frost warning for tonight. Oh? I also spotted Emiya and Saber exploring on their very own vehicle. Things don’t really go the way they hoped though.

Obtained Figma Saber Alter at my local Anime Stop today. Also went to my local Kiko Sushi Bar to eat out as I also planned out a figure photoshoot there in advance. Chopstick Kohiru joined me in some amusing photo-shootings as she attracted lots of attention. I hope you guys/gals don’t mind if I merge the review and Kohiru’s articles into one. Didn’t want to spam my own blog.

Sidenote: I’m not rich; it only appears as if I am. If I was rich I’d be constantly traveling the world :P.

With the amount of royal treatment that Saber Lily and Extra have been given, they both finally gained cabin fever. Lily being stuck for a year or two while Extra for a few weeks, who’d blame them?
Also, it appears the whole city of Ottawa is under-construction as everything is all dug up everywhere.

Thought I’d try something new with my camera. Might not be new to other serious photographers, but its new to me as I only used it once before during Winterlude 2010. I’m talking about using burst mode in an active location with your camera, then animating it into an animated .gif. I hope you find it to your liking. Oh, and since I added 13 gifs you may experience an internet slow down, or browser lag, depending on your computer set up. I apologize for that.
I also had Saber and Optimistic Penguin‘s blog mascot join me on the experiment as well.

Christmasu Saber has arrived! Christmasu Saber? Guys/gals remember the Fate/Stay Night visual novel or Anime series? Fate/Extra adds another story line to that, probably similar to Fate/Hollow Ataraxia. Fate/Extra is supposed to be a J-RPG for the PSP that allows you to be a Master which would allow you to control a Servant.
Also would like to apologize for the image quality as I had to fight with overcast lighting.

Konata decided to push me out just because she wanted to go to the local AnimeStop…..Well, enjoy the images and hope something in the below images are worth your interests.

Thought I’d post an article about my Figma’s new flag collection. Nothing special, just that I wanted flags for my Figmas and so I could have them hold it in future Anime conventions or whatever. I’ve been searching for Canadian flag ones but couldn’t find one around me so I decided to craft my own. They look simple enough to make.

Ein and Yoko decided to venture out to Andrew Haydon Park during a nice bright day. With a day that started off insanely chilly ended up being a nice warm and breezy day.

Ottawa holds a Rib Cook-off every year for a few days for locals and tourists to try out. I decided to give this event an article this time around because I didn’t give one to it last year. I also encountered Ein on Parliament Hill where I tried to eat my chicken and ribs in peace.

I acquired another ex:ride on Friday, June 18, 2010 after a user on figure.fm notified me of this product. The certain user told me that our local AnimeStop had an ex:ride near the cashier via figure.fm‘s Puchi Blurbs so I called to place it on hold, rushed over, and purchased it. How much? $28 CAD – $33 with taxes.

After giving Saber a royal treatment on a Cuban beach (article) she declared a personal throne room of her own on home territory. Her throne room is still a work-in-progress as the glass cabinets are mostly taken up by other figures, gundam model kits, and Ferrari kits.

Ah, another stroll with another idea for a Figma photo-shoot. Rin was up for using her Segway as she said hello to others strolling around town.
