Japan trip loots

Some of you who have been following my blog would know that I have just traveled to Japan recently for a super condensed sight seeing and shopping trip.  I have a set of mission objectives that I wanted to accomplish, and I have managed to finish most of them by Saturday night Japan time.  But how can it be?  There are only 3 real days to work with, I have to be back in the airport before noon on Sunday.  As I reveal the details of my complete walk-through of my super condensed Japan trip, it will become more obvious!

  1. See the Odaiba Gundam
  2. Watch the Kamen Rider movie
  3. Watch the Evangelion 2.0 movie You can (not) advance
  4. Shopping in Akihabara
  5. Shopping for Dollfie Clothes and appropriate size Rider belts
  6. Go to a maid cafe

I am fairly proud to say that I have accomplished every one of the above objectives even though this trip was so short.  For starter, I am going to cover my loots during this trip and I will expand onto some of the finer details of my experience of my super condensed, super fast pace first trip to Japan.  Without further ado, let me get started.  First is the grand scale loots!

Obviously, you can’t really see anything like this, so let me break them down into their categories.

Time is ticking away as my planned Japan trip is slated to happen tomorrow, assuming my standby ticket status remain positive.  However, due to some weather problem, my standby ticket status is in a little jeopardy at this point.  I remain cautiously optimistic that I should be in Japan on Wednesday.  Anyway, before my trip, I managed to finish a project that started almost a month ago.  Here I present to you the Dollfie Dream Theater EP02, a continuation of the last episode (for those of you who have not read the last episode, please follow this link Dollfie Dream Theater EP01).  A slight surprise will be waiting for you at the end of the story!

Updating from my “flamethrower” Prescott again… Well I finally decided to ditch the Dell train and be a free man… just went to newegg.com and ordered myself a

Cooler Master RC690

and a Gigabyte Intel P43 ATX motherboard

Hopefully, I will be running at full strength again sometime next week.

On the brighter side of the note, I have just been notified by Volks International that I have won the lottery!  Dollfie Dream Rin Tosaka and her school uniform are finally mine!  They almost make it sounds they they are ready to send her out to me.. perhaps she will arrive before Dollfie Fate that I won in the Volks USA lottery, what an ironic twist of “fate” that is.  Perhaps an update to my Dollfie Dream Completion Project page after I recovered from this motherboard failure.

Still in the middle of planning my come back strategy on adopting Rin Tosaka Dollfie Dream, whether I should go straight to Yahoo Japan Auction (a few Rin Tosaka DD has already popped up on Yahoo Japan Auction but they all come at a ridiculous price, some even ask for as much as 90000yen for a 50000yen Dollfie Rin, no thanks, I am not in that much of a hurry!), or try to take a shot at the After event items, still undecided.  In the mean time, two of boxes have arrived for inspection for the month of May, this is the 3nd round of loots arrival for the month so far.  Let’s take a look at what we have here:

Alright, the continuous temptation from the most up to date information on Volks line of Dollfie Dream through Dannychoo.com is pushing me dangerously close to actually consider adopting a dollfie or two.  The latest release are two of my favorite characters Rin Tosaka from Fate stay night and Fate T Harlaown from Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS.

I have always said Rin need more love, now it’s my chance to stay true to my own words, she need more love, more love from me!  I have crossed over the line and finally registered at Volks website, when the lottery opens, I am going for her.

Went out drinking in a local Rock Bottom Brewer with a colleague until 11:00pm, got home and found this pile of loots coming from HLJ, Hobby Search and BeNippon!

Now the Alteisen Riese, Auβenseiter, and Dygenguar are pretty much self explanatory so let’s not waste time on them until I finish building them.  Lets move on the the books.

Replicant, G's Magazine March, G's Festival Vol. 15 and the Saber Portrait mook

Replicant, G's Magazine March, G's Festival Vol. 15, the Saber Portrait and sneaking in the middle like a mouse is the Rin/Archer optical mini mouse

I am not a regular reader of Replicant, but with a Saber Lily on the cover can only lead to one result: Click to buy.

Saber Lily Fold out, nice!

Next up are the G’ses, they never disappointed me and this time is no exception.

There have been enough coverage of the Honey Moon Box that I don’t think I need to do it again here.  Now, the G’s Magazine comes with a little pencil board of the gorgeous looking Feena on front side, Cynthia Marguerite a Moonlight Cradle excluive character on the back, very nice looking indeed.  And with the G’s Comic Vol. 5 received late last month.  I say I got all the bases covered for all the Feena merchandise this time around!

Then there is the Saber portrait, quite a few pictures have been circulating in the Internet cloud, a very special book if you consider yourself a Saber Fan.

And last, but not least… is the Rin/Archer mini usb mouse!

Besides my well publicized interest in Saber, I am also very fond of Rin the devil.  Unlimited Blade Work is still my favorite arc of the Fate/stay night visual novel.  Too bad that there aren’t as many merchandise on Rin as there are in Saber >.>

A few more things that are on their way here, there is Queen’s Blade Alice from Megahouse, all thanks to comrade twu from Theinfernoproject that I decided to check an ebay seller with tons of inventory.  The trick is to get Alice delivered to me without any damage >.>, we will see about that one.  Comrade Optic over in http://thedisjointedzone.com kindly informed us over in DC that there is a Megami Super Deluxe floating around with the best illustrations from vol. 1 to vol. 100, just what the doctor’s ordered! I tried to snatch a copy at HLJ immediately but now it’s showing to be on backorder >.> 1/7 Teana Lanster PVC from Alter is also on her way.
