Nosebleed get!

Posted by Blowfish On January - 23 - 2009

I was finally able to pick up my most expensive order ever from customs today! They hold the poor girls hostage for a mere 14 days before sending me a notice.The Package arrived 3 days after shipping in Germany and the rest of the two weeks were spent in several custom bureaus.I have no idea what they did but whatever it was it did take quite some time.I had to pay a hostage fee of 53,90 and they were mine!

Who hides in that mysterious box?Find out after the Jump!

The Dengeki Daioh Trip!

Posted by Blowfish On November - 12 - 2008

The last time i visited  my favorite bookstore they had the September 08 Issue of the Dengeki Daioh Magazine on Sale and i was tempted to get it.I usually wouldnt pick up something like this tough since i cant understand a word and can only guess whats going on.I found out a short time later that the Dengeki Daioh serializes alot of Series that im watching right now/Im reading translated and i decided to pick up one issue for fun.Hey after all there are still the extras i can have fun with if it turns out to be boring!

I had to take the Train to Düsseldorf to pick one up and thought why shouldnt i take some pics along the way to show a bit about the Japanese parts of Düsseldorf.

Check out the pictures and some infos after the Jump!

I need some advice…

Posted by Blowfish On November - 1 - 2008

Im in a pinch right now…I wrote about my Preorders in my last post and and how i adore the Creators Labo Rei Ayanami after a Shunya Yamashita Design.I preordered her in an instant when i heard about her re-release since i knew from reviews that Yamato actually did a good job on her.The Dilemma im in is actually James fault for posting his Reviews on several figures from E2046s Gathering line.They are basically already painted Garagekits…There is one thing that bugs me about Yamatos PVC Rei: She doesnt come with the Bandages the Kit comes with (and well she isnt castoff ^^;;;). I always had an Eye on their Gathering Rei but didnt want to cash out that much money.

Well whats Rei without Asuka?It just feels wrong right?Thats why E2046 decided to turn Asuka into a ORI figure that seems to be after another Yamashita Design i didnt know of.They are offering her as a Gathering figure as well…

You know im a total sucker for Yamashita Designs and well i wouldnt mind a castoffable Asuka either…You can check them both out here.Thats some mighty cash they want for both of them but as far as ive seen across the blogosphere the gathering figures are worth every penny.

I wonder if i should cancel my PVC Preorder of Rei and go for both?They restock them in January and i guess id have some sparemoney from chritsmas by then….I have a bad feeling spending that much money tough…

That E2046 is constantly sending me  newsletters with Pics of both of em doesnt help either…

The Creators Labo Rei is the cheaper alternative for sure but it would be stupid if i order the Gathering figures later tough. ARGH! IM IN DESPAIR!
