A lot has happened since the beginning of the year until now. Much of which has been backlogged due to a busy schedule. It’s not just games, but life in general, and the fact that I’ve been trying to stay busy. This week is no different. Another major project has landed on my lap (that I can’t reveal), which I’m more than happy to do. But I can’t neglect my readers. You guys are very important to me, and it means a lot when you guys come check out my small little world, and comment.
So here’s a bunch of photos that I’ve taken since arriving back from Singapore, many of which are things that I want to talk about in the future on this blog, but have been backlogged.
One of my favorite manga has arrived – Yotsuba! As you know I’m a big fan of art books too! These three books cost me in total only $45! Amazon rocks.
In addition to the books, Marisa arrived on the same day! Tokyo Hunter delivers with flying colors!
A cookie for those who know what that CD on top is.
Tiger on a plate. Another cookie for those who know the person holding the plate. :3
I actually had taken a few more photos with Rin and her apple. I miss that apple.
Got this back when everyone got it. This was a low point in my blogging mood. I did not want to blog about World Is Mine Miku, even though I had already taken the photos.
A towering box. What’s inside??!
A cookie for those who know where this camera came from!
This was actually taken a year ago. You can tell because the blog skin is different. I was experimenting with something that failed miserably, so this was the only salvageable shot. Maybe I’ll make amendments in the future. (you guys will know what it is when you see it. 🙂
Wife left me a note. For those that don’t follow my youtube channel, Dale is one of our ham-hams.
Can’t explain this now – more in a future blog post. 😛
Someone at the Shoryuken forums made a custom arcade stick featuring my art. Looks pretty sweet!
Figure abuse?! Those that know who this figure is, also get a cookie, and will also most likely know what the heck I’m doing here. 😉
These are just SOME of the random photos I’ve taken for blog posts. There are actually plenty more. Don’t worry, they’ll all fall into place one day and you’ll be saying “HEY! I remember that photo! That was EONS ago!” Radiant, you lazy bum! XD

It seems like a lot of people are busy with things in real life around this time of year (myself included).
I hope that hard drive you took apart was already broken >.>
It seems like it, exams are around the corner for a lot of people, and it’s Spring. Generally people start to get around and do stuff during this time.
And yeah, the hard drive was already broken before I took it apart. I had always wondered what the internals of one looked like. 😛
i love yotsubato
ha ha I totally know too. 😀
All I know is that the cd in front of Marisa is a Sailor Moon CD.
cookie for you! :3
Oh, but WHICH CD would it be?! XD
The cd I would assume is Sailor Moon just because I sort of see the oh so familiar hair and as for the tiger, I have no idea. I would imagine that it would not be someone from the series Toradora! because that would lose the fun of it, but otherwise I don’t know…I’ll just wait till someone else knows the answer for me 🙂
Anyway, I laughed quite a lot at your little comment about missing that apple, rin does look cute with it though so I can’t blame you!
I can’t believe you are leaving us in suspense with that one picture that you only plan to explain later! For some reason the moment somebody mentions how they can’t explain something right away, I just instantly get into a mode where I can’t wait for the plans to be revealed! WAH!
As for the last image, I am pretty positive that is the foot belonging to Good Smile’s Shuraki Rize? Quite a suspenseful image you got there 🙂
you get a cookie too! :3
I guess I made it too easy ^^; so which CD is it? XD
The tiger is definitely from Toradora, but the person holding it is not. So I wonder who it is? :3
Rin + Apple = Super Cute. I have to agree with that statement. 😀 Maybe one day, my wife will bring home another one of those apples. And I’ll make sure to eat it this time!
In due time, all of these random photos will be explained later. I’m guessing that I’ll have a bit more time after this month ends. (no promises though!)
And you’re right about the last image too! You got two cookies now! :9
I’ll post about it when I can. ^^
If I didn’t watch Aria yet, I probably won’t notice the Aria President there ^^; The first thing I notice about that animal was “why is the marshmallow with almond eyebrows the president of the company?” The second episode explained it quite well XD
Enlarging the hole for the display stand on the last figure? Pretty big drill 😛 Ah yeah, I think that’s what I don’t like when I blog is to post the same thing as everyone else is doing. Which is why I was reserved in doing my GSC Saber Lily post, but I tried to make it as different as possible.
I can’t say I’m too fond of the Aria president. I used to think he’s kinda cute, but now that I look at him, not really. He’s become a bit of an eye-sore in my collection of figures. I guess using him as a paperweight was a good idea though.
I’ve actually got a backlogged post about the whole posting or not posting thing lined up. Probably not in the form that you’d expect, but do stay tuned.
*Starts humming the tune to Miracle Romance*
😀
The person holding the plate… Rev- Revoltech Professor Layton?! (Haven’t played the games but I came across the figure itself)
I have not been feeling too well ever since I got back to the UK last Sunday, and it was a bad timing too since everything’s gonna pile up for the final 2 months for me. Will have to stay alive somehow until I pass the finish line.
Lots of mysteries revolving around your random photos this time 😮 Looking forward to see you reveal them!
The problem with giving out blog cookies is that the legibility of correct answers is only limited to the person who gets it right first ^^; Well, I won’t be hoaxing any free cookies from ya.
And WHAT IS UP with that fightstick? It’s amazing! I commend whoever did that by making such an awesome piece of work, but I also condemn this person for placing it on what seems to be a porch… someplace dirty, at any rate. The special favors I would do to get a fightstick like that D:
My stomach lurched a little when I saw Rize’s foot getting drilled, even though I knew it’d be for good reason. Just an involuntary reflex from seeing anime goods damaged, I suppose.
So what’s wrong with the first person getting it right to get the acknowledgment? But no Ningyo. You are wrong. Anyone who wants a cookie can get one. I have plenty. :3
The fightstick seems to be done by a particular design company that does custom sticks. I went to their website, and they’ve got a pretty good selection. I agree with you on the porch thing. I’ve noticed that about some interwebbers posting pix of their stuff. Why outside and why on the damn porch?! D:
Have a cookie. :3
So you know what happened to Rize? I tell ya, I’ve been putting this task off for over a year now. I know what you mean. Fortunately, I had gathered enough skill points to handle the equipment I own now, so the results are flawless. Post in future posts.
LoL.. revoltec prof layton.
I just got the figures. Very detailed and nice, some more can use the furniture for figma and nendoroid. ^^
Sweet! It’s such a great figure. When I first saw it, I just couldn’t resist! Even though I’m a fan of the series, I’ve yet to finish even the first game! ._.
I quite like the included barista furniture too. Very cute.
Last pic figure looks like 5th shuraki Rizfis. Sadly recognized it because of similar issues… mine has both broken and stuck in her feet T_T
Guess most of people who have it had trouble with those damn pegs.
A secret project you can’t reveal ? want to know!! haha ^^
Dang! Did you end up fixing yours? I’ll go into details on what I did next time.
The secret project will be revealed in a few months time. ^^;
Na don’t have the right equipment to try anything, or not small enough bits to drill the pegs like you seem to have done. Besides I am quite curious about it ^^
Hmmm… well, hopefully when I post about it, you may be encouraged to try. ^^
Yeouch, thats one thumb tac your dont want to stand on!
I dont know what figure it is im afraid but i cant wait to see what its all about xD
lol!
Actually, I abandoned this project half way, so it’s just a big mess right now. I haven’t had the time to go back to it yet! O_o
Ooh! Well maybe some other time i’ll get to see c:
I love random posts like these though – theyre so insteresting!
Thanks! I have to admit, it’s a guilty pleasure. It’s quite fun to do! May decide to do more random photos again in the future. Not so soon though. ^^
Hmm… If I’m not mistaken, the box contains bought stuffs from Shino… hmmm… the figure seems familiar.. Teana Lanster perhaps?
Gah! it’s Rizfis figure.. didn’t read the comments. hahah
You’ll just have to find out later what’s inside the box! ^^
The cat is really curious right now…
Yotsuba volume 8 🙂 I just got that a few days ago myself. Few things in life cheer me up as well as Yotsuba does, I REALLY adore that series. Also KYA! ARIA! I just finished the manga series this afternoon. ARIA is another pure feel good series I admire a lot.
Sweet! That’s good to hear that you’re a Yotsuba fan too! (actually, who isn’t?!)
I agree with you – Yotsuba’s sense of purity and cheer really brings a different outlook on life. It totally reminds me of when I was a child. More so that Calvin and Hobbes does. I think it’s because he sets the tone and atmosphere well with the backdrops and scenes. You really do feel like a person outside looking into her world.
I heard about Aria… I wish my wife didn’t dismiss it after watching two episodes. “Boooooring.” she said. 🙁
Mhmm most seem busy.. *points at myself as well =/
Yotsuba! yay ^^
Nice photoshoot btw =)
yeah, things have been pretty busy… for everyone I’m sure!
