Gundam 4Koma Winner

Sorry for making this post so late ^^;. Been really busy with everything outside of blogging lately (and still am). Due to these circumstances, I have shortened the decision process for myself and just rate the top three. I would’ve like to go over every single one but that takes too much time and I don’t have that sort of thing at the moment. Now without further ado…

Lumix GF1 GET!

I supposed I have to thank (blame?) Danny for influencing me on this giant purchase ^^;. For some odd reason, I can’t seem to find any store (Best Buy, Sears, etc) that carries this camera so I never got to play around with it to make up my mind on whether to buy it or not. During the DC meetup at AX, I asked Danny if I could check out his GF1 for a bit and after shooting a few shots, I immediately fell in love with it… and my XSi felt lacking ever since. After coming back to Portland, I started my hunt for the best deal on this…

1 or 2?

I would like your opinion on this. Which of the two photo looks better (sharper, cleaner, crisper, better color, vibrant, etc)? The first one above or the second one below?

Both are taken right after one another with the same settings (I think) and at the same angle as best as I could. The only difference? The camera I used.

Your feedback is much appreciated. Thanks =)

SH Figuarts Kamen Rider Kabuto Review

Grandmother said this, “Walking the path of blogging, the man who will review everything”… Just kidding. So here’s my first review of anything in a long while, my very first SHF figure- Kamen Rider Kabuto. Well… there’s not much to actually “review” or explain since I think the photos can do all the talking. And with this, a new “Kamen Rider” section has been started where I’ll be mainly reviewing SIC and SHF stuff so you can expect more of the same in the near future. While I do want to make this a big section, I’m not sure how possible it will be. Obtaining SHF and SIC figures, I’ve realized, is a giant pain in the ass. Mostly because the ones I want are always sold out (even during pre-orders!) in online stores and cost a bomb on ebay (thanks to it being located in HK)… so we’ll see how things go.

Kamen Rider Kabuto

Got curious about the whole Kamen Rider stuff after the announcement of the MG Kamen Rider W Cyclone Joker, so thought I’d give the Tokusatsu infomercial series a peek. Started out with W but since it is still airing (I’m up to 39 currently), I hopped over to Kamen Rider Kabuto and finished it early last month. I heard many positive feedbacks about this series and after finishing it, I think it rocks. There is an actual  plot, twists and turns, a decent storyline, a good sense of comedy, awesome fight scenes and character developments that is worth caring about. You can read more about it on its wiki page if this piqued your interest since I don’t want to ramble too much about it ^^;. This isn’t my first time watching Kamen Rider though; I remember back when I was like maybe 5 I was watching Kamen Rider Black RX… in Chinese.

Gundam 4Koma Contest Last Stage

Here’s where your voice really matters- this is the decisive battle of the Gundam 4koma! I’ve grabbed what I think (with your feedback into consideration… for the most part) is the top 6 across the three stages and have them duke it out here. Good luck to the finalists. FINAL ROUND! READY! GO!!!

Gundam 4Koma Stage 3

So who will be the winner and take the Lancelot and topcoat as their prize? We’ll see after the last set of entries…

Gundam 4Koma Stage 2

Too lazy to make a new pic… >_>. Anyway, let’s continue from where we left off!
