Ho,ho,ho! Youre favorite blogger Blowfish didnt drown in a sea of christmas cookies but merely has been very,very busy with real life.Ive finally found the time to take a break and take some pictures of a book that has been lying on my desk for quite some time. Check out my review after the Jump!
How do you know that youre beyond good and evil when it comes to a merchandise?The answer is simple: You buy a book that features pictures of the figures you have in your own cabinet XD
Masters of Queens Blade focuses on the figure related merchandise of the franchise with a heavy focus on Megahouse`s line of figures.The book features the whole Megahouse Line Up Until late spring 09 and selected figures by other manufacturers aswell as illustrations and other nifty extras.The book even has something for the perverts out there with its sealed Gravure Picture section that features the girls in all their naked glory
The softcover book is a 120 pages strong with nice strong quality paper and is mostly in full colour with a few exceptions like early design sketches etc.The sealed gravure section gave me a bit of a headache since you have to seperate the pages with a knife or scissors to get a look at the busty beauties.My attempt to seperate the pages was rather unsuccessful and I ended up with a bunch of jagged pages.I sacrificed a few milimeters of the pages and used my hobbyknife and a ruler to get a clean look.
The book itself is seperated into Megahouse figures and their Colour Variants,the Gravure Section,other Queens Blade figures,Queens Gate figures,Illustrations and early design sketches,an interview with Megahouse`s figure sculptors and a tour guide to the world of Queens Blade.
Hobby Japan and MegaHouse are some sneaky bastards and added an exclusive figure coupon at the end of the book.I cant really tell for which figure the coupon is but its probably invalid for quite some time anyway.
The book is a nice way to get an overview over the vast Queens Blade figure merchandise and probably gives a good insight into the production process when youre able to understand japanese.The Illustration section gives an insight into the characters and makes the package complete and an interesting addon for the sophisticated Queens Blade afficiando.
I can wholeheartedly recommend the book at the price point of 1905 yen if youre interested in MH`s vast figure releases but if youre looking for illustrations you better place your bet on one of the other avaiable QB Illustration books.
Oooohh thats one sexy colour variation of Menace <3
Echidna is probably the figure with the most colour variations from the whole QB cast
Hmmmm….Where have I seen those Unofficial WonFes QB Accessory again…?I think I know with which items the next Special Editions will be delivered with 
The Sealed Gravure Section
Annelotte is the only QB Rebellion Character in the book so far

Soooo….what have I been busy with?Ive had a Job Interview Marathon the last two weeks and Ive finally been successful last week and got myself a new job.Its alot closer to my place and pays better than my last job and Im kinda happy now that I was fired from my last job ^^
Im still busy getting used to the new work enviroment and I fear that blogging has to take a backseat at the moment until the holidays come.Ill try to write up some posts in my free time but dont expect too much from me until christmas ^^;;;
About a month ago Ive also got a mysterious shipment from england…What could it be?
Yes,I am officially now one of the cool guys and ordered myself a free pack of 50 Moo Business Cards.They come with a moo branding that features a discount code which may bother some but I am not really troubled by it.I wont use the cards for any serious business anyway and theyre free after all!
Be sure to change the Images you want to use into CYMK Mode before uploading them.I didnt and ended up with rather dark prints ^^;;;
Now with who could I share those….. ^_^
