Allow me to say thank you to Aquamarine for bringing in sculptor Satoshi Toda for his glorious handiwork with this 1/7 scale figure of Sinon [しのん]. Ever since Wonfest 2014 and the GK teasers, this Sinon (best girl discussions are that way (ノ^∇^)ノ゚) was my holy grail :D. While she did arrive late, I’m soooo glad I bit the bullet to get one. Now, on with the review and photoshoot. Some box shots: Simple, a bit spartan, but elegant. Just like the contents 😀 And now we take her out of the box 😀 Hello beautiful. Aquamarine really did a good job […]
Hello again! It’s been awhile and I’m not happy about that — mainly because my backlogs are increasing :(. On a more happier note. I have in my hand a figure of my best girl from one of my favorite idol serieses — the iDolM@ster. Admittedly, I don’t have enough experience with Phat! but when I decided to pick ip this figure, the prototype was awesomely sculpted and painted and the price was not too shabby. 🙂 So now a little show for the box. Not much in terms of packaging as the box itself and the protective […]
I finally got some time on my hands to do more Toy Photography and test out some new equipment 😀 This is a montage of a couple of shots for GSC’s Shinobu and FigFX’s (surprise) Shinobu. I’m still working on controlling the vignette for my new Tamron 24-70 but in most cases it’s desirable (like most of my portraiture work, etc). I still like the output but the vignette breaks the continuity for the stitched image. If you want to view the individual images, you can view them here: PS: Sorry for the sudden hiatus 🙁 I had to focus […]
Kurumi isn’t my top Date A live character unless when she goes into her Yandere mode (sorry Yoshino, Kotori) and I’m so glad they made a figure for her. Griffon has a scale figure for her which was a pleasant surprise when her finished product came up (the prototype was bad, really bad) so I’m still on the fence whether or not to regret not getting it–but hey, at least GSC stepped up and made cute nendoroid for her :D. Personal Notes: It’s been a busy month so I took a bit of a break from figure photography and that meant […]

This is one of my most awaited figure release for the year and I’m so glad I got her early on (even if this review is late orz). Thanks to Onegai Oniichan for accomodating my order of Nisemonogatari Premium Item BOX. I remember being ecstatic once GSC announced her. And now, after seeing her in the flesh, having unboxed and played with her for a quite a bit, I can safely say thanks GSC for taking my money 🙂 Now, on with some disclaimers: this review is a bit more organized than my first one and I hope you enjoy it reading it […]
Disclaimer: As this is my first Nendoroid review, please pardon the somewhat lack of structure and somewhat short length>_>. Hopefully my next review (which should be up in a few days) will be more organized. When my local toys and collectible shop pm’d me that my order for GSC’s Kosaki Nendoroid I was ecstatic :D. The best girl (for the first season at least) has arrived. Here’s Chitoge and Hinata as part of the welcoming committee. Note that this shot is from my current work table. I’m currently waiting for my new one which should be more umm photogenic. Just like […]
That moment when you just realized that the official release is this week an you haven’t actually spent time on the demo.
