Well I wanted to finally get my Figma Saber and I had enough for a Figma Miku so I headed to my local Anime store while I had the chance. Since I arrived on Sunday, September 21, 2008 I finally had the chance to go to the anime store, by bus. When I arrived I saw Figma Haruhi (already have), Figma Mikuru (I need), and Figma Yuki Nagato (Which I also need) on the rack.� I asked if there were anymore Figmas and the lady said yes, pointing to a recently new pile of figures that came in just today (Wednesday, September 24, 2008). I then checked which ones interested me and took two.

Haruhi Images – Part 3
Well I was at my friends to see his new synth so I took the opportunity to take pictures, and to also improve my indoor shooting skills. I tried out his synth (Korg R3) and I must say its a kick ass synth. Too bad I couldn’t record what I played on it since the recording softwares had some issues with the keyboard .

So here are the the damn clouds that harassed Ottawa late July till August 11th messing up my bike trips. This weather front corrupted my already messed up sleeping habit making me stay awake even longer during the night (or waking me up early but sleeping later).

August 15th, 2008
Well I did hint the date and mentioned it a few times on a gaming forum I moderated it. There are also people I told in detail where I am going on that day so I thought I put this here as well.
Rainbow 8/8/8
Yesterday the whole world was watching the Olympics, getting married, had new borns, and even created feasts to celebrate the day. I was watching the Olympic ceremony just like everybody else and looked outside and saw this rainbow.

More of these rainbows were spotted on the same day down in Southern Ontario after the on/off rain that has been happening since August started. I also zoomed into it but the image got darker and less satisfying.
Haruhi Figma – July 28th
Went to the anime store on July 28th to pick up anything of interest so I did, Haruhi Figma greeted me there. Thanks to Danny I had more of an interest in taking this then KOS-MOS from Xenosaga� Bome Figure. I picked up Haruhi Figma out of her pile an and took off waiting to see whats so special about Figmas, its their kick ass posing abilities. I even used her to help me and my friend win as the Slovaks in Euro 2008 for PS3. I placed Haruhi with her yellow cone infront of the TV and it made us thing of winning or suffer double defeat. Without her there we did slighty worse but with her there we did better, no goals against us.

Fake Impulse Gundam
I was looking at Rin (Fate/Stay Night) who is from a Bome figure collection. I don’t have a good picture of her for so I went to get a brush for her in my local Dollar Store so that I could later on. I, for some reason, headed through the toy section just to see what they have and I came across this silly Gundam toy from China. I was looking for the kitchen brushes but I just wanted to check out what they had.

Spore Creatures
Well with Spore being he next big game coming out I obviously joined the bandwagon this time for something hyped. I normally wait out on hyped games so I can get it for cheap and so I can enjoy the proper atmosphere of the game in an undisturbed manner. Anybody here got the Spore Creature Creator on the first day it was leaked? I did thanks to someone on the forums I go to for the Spore. This buddy hooked me up, I downloaded it, tried it out, created a creature, and then showed it off. I then went onto creating many other Spore Creatures just to see what I could create. I created ten creatures and will wait until the full game to create more.
Rin Bome Figure
Being both late and with crappy quality images, I will however post an entry on her just for the hell of it. I acquired her on Wednesday, May 18th, 2008 along with a AT-ST, a mini tank with WW2 planes for a board game, and some Eye of Judgment cards.

Saturday, June 21, 2008 – Bike ride + mini Photoshoot
After fighting with my computer to allow USB connection with my PSP, I can now view my pictures and show them off.
Since I noticed it was another great day I called my friend and asked him if he wanted to join me in a bike ride somewhere. He agreed to join me so we headed off to Andrew Haydon Park to enjoy the nice day out, but we could not go farther then that because of his breaks on his bike being messed up. We met up and went past Britania Beach, and noticed this nice view. I didn’t do any previous bike rides since I fell off my bike the a few weeks back making me afraid of riding it, well until the Ferrari Festival which I couldn’t miss.
(Since my blog doesn’t want to upload pictures I linked them to my deviantart account instead. You will find the links under pictures to view full size.)

1/100 Gundam Kyrios
As of Monday, May 26, 2008 I aquired Gundam Kyrios for $71. Well I feel that the price was a rip even before I bought it but since I wanted a new Gundam model I paid for it. At first I thought it was going to be as small as my Stargazer Gundam, however, it ended up as big as my other big Gundam models I got. Well I was hoping to get a big one so my mind kept shifting and getting paranoid I was going to get a small one again sine the effort for the smaller figure sized are half a wasted effort.
My last Gundam model was the Zaku II so having Kyrios in my collection gives my collection back to the modern times. While building the Gundam I noticed it has a slight reference to “Super Gundam” and “Wing Gundam” because of how it transforms and how the legs are shaped. Next time when you look at Kyrios think of the “Super Gundam” and the “Wing Gundam” and you’ll probably see where I’m coming from.
Going to show the box art and then images of when I was building it. The pictures were taken by a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P41

Saber’s Photoshoot (and a bit of sidetrackness)
Well since it was nice out I thought I should go out and see where I could go. I looked up at my desk thinking if I should take a figure to take pictures of during bike stop breaks. I saw that Mini-Saber and the new Revoltech Saber so I brought her along. Got on my bike, went on the bike path, headed towards Mud Lake to find people looking at the Canadian Geese with their baby Geese. I stopped, got off my bike and got sidetracked for a good 10-15 minutes while I saw another guy trying to go fishing with a fishing net.

Saber Figure made by KAIYODO
I went to my local Anime Stop (20 minutes bike) to look at what they had. I came across this Saber which I got here and accidentally mistook it for a Figma Saber. She was acquired on Sunday, May 18th, 2008 just for those curious on the date.

Tulip Festival
I added the Tulip Festival Gallery onto the site so if your visiting my blog all the pictures are above in that link ^. I stayed mostly in the Japanese area where I saw people playing the fishy game, making origami, trying out headbands and such. The Tulip Festival has are as follows: Russia, Romania, Japan, Canada, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Indonesia, China, European Union, Thailand, Holland, Germany, Peru, and Mexico. I bet I forgot about 1-3 nations that were at the Tulip Festival in Major’s Hill Park in downtown Ottawa. I volunteered at the Tulip Festival as a Security guy so I get posted to various areas of the park. Today I got posted in the Mexico area for three hours in the sun with a one hour break to tour around and back to beer duty at the German boarder. The smells being put off by the international Pavilions drove me mad since I wanted to eat but had no cash.
