Digital Diva Hatsune Miku Desends!

by

This Figma marks the 100th Figma to be released, and for the 100th they had Miku Hatsune be the lucky number. Also with this release, there was an added bonus for a few websites. There was an added Head Phones that came in, Black, Grey, or Brown.

Now, so far every Figma to be released so far has one or two things about it that, well are quaky. And this Figma i really can’t find anything really wrong with her.

Her transparent hair is well done, the joins are very solid, and the head with the hair even straight to the sides can hold there own.

I think one of the best things about her has to be her poseability.

From a few other reviews i’ve read since it’s taken me a while to get her. Most of them said on how beautiful she is or how much they liked it without really saying why. But now that i’ve got her, i can see why who have got her can’t really express how cool this figure is in words alone.

SO, check out some of these shots i took. I do apologize for some pictures that might be bad or shooty frames. I was trying some new ways to use the LEDs on my desk and also, forgive my poor tripod skills. lol

Black Rock Shooter the Game PSP Review.

by

I just got BRStG yesterday and had a chance to charge my PSP and play it for a few hours to get a feel for the game. And i like it, it’s only hard since i can’t read any of the letters… After going back to my PSP after… well it’s been awhile since i last played it and for a PSP game it’s very nice looking. The battle system is easy to use even when you can’t read the menu or anything really… Game play is also smooth and very clean, plus the intro was done very well.

I’ve only put in like 2-3 hours into and got 2 of the power ups so far but i’m loving this game for what it is. America don’t look sad when it seems like i’m the only having fun with this game, NIS America as announced that Black Rock Shooter the Game will be coming to America, though that TBA. From what i know if NIS and how they work there games, if they don’t try and do a dubbing for it (i hope they don’t) we can see it out by the end of the year, but if they do try to dub it then maybe by summer maybe even by the 3rd quart of next year. (maybe just before the end of the word happends too).

I ended up getting the White Premium Box that comes with White Rock Shooter Figma as well.   And this box was BIG! I’ve got other figures with games out of japan but this one has to be the biggest one i’ve got mainly due to those wings…

But as for her, she’s very nice. Some down sides are that she’s not that poseable compared to other figmas and seems like some parts of her are loose. After talking with others who have got her as well, they all tell me similar problems that i’m having. So if you who are reading this happen to get BRStG with WRS let me know if you have the same problem about joins being lose or parts coming off easy.

This game is fun and i cant’ wait to see it in America since then i can play it again and understand it.

Index Figma Pre-review!!

by
So now, here we have a fun little figure that i’m glad was finally put to pre order. Index is from an anime called Toaru Majutsu no Index or also known as A Certain Magical Index. And from some of the pre released pictures i’ve seen a few months ago and that i’m glad they did do in the end, is her skirt is made of cloth. This i think is the 1st figma to have cloth to be apart of there clothing.
If you don’t know anything about this show here’s a little summery about it.
Plot Summary: Kamijou Touma is a student living in Academy City, a highly advanced place in terms of technology. Despite being gauged as a level zero esper (no powers), he possesses on his right hand the Imagine Breaker, an ability that negates any power whatsoever. Touma finds a young girl named Index who is trying to run away from Necessarius, a powerful magic organization that she is member of. Blessed with the skill of memorizing any sort of information, she holds 103,000 forbidden magical books within her head. As science and magic cross paths, Touma must face several dangers amid espers and magicians who appear at the exciting scientific town.

So when i get this i hope to have a nice review set up with all the other characters from the show since Index will be the last one to be relased.

Mayoi Hachikuji Figma Review

by

Mayoi Hachikuji also known as The Snail. 1st off, this figma is small!! I know that Mayoi is a very small character but i think she’s the smallest one that i have.

But anywho, this is the 3rd figma to come out from the Bakemonogatari line. Before Mayoi there was Hitagi Senjyogahara then Koyomi Araragi. Of the 3 so far, she comes with the most equipment. One very large backpack 2 umbrellas (one opened and one closed) and a sit down position.
I was very nerves about posing her since she seems to small, but she shows to be very poseable and was able to get some very entertain pictures.
I think that this figma could have bee done better but after getting the 3rd figure in this line i can see how they’re making them able to go with each other for dynamic poses and maybe even more. But so far i’ve have fun trying some new things when doing this review and this is why.

Captain America: The First Avenger Is Our Hometown Hero

by

USA! USA! USA!

Captain America is the last of the films made to introduce people to the team that will be featured in next year’s The Avengers movie. It introduces Steve Rodgers, a young scrawny kid who just wants to stand up to bullies who ends up becoming Captain America and the face of the war. In the movie Steve mentions this line, “I don’t like bullies, no matter where they are from.” That line does an excellent job in describing Steve Rodger’s character throughout the movie.

The movie does an excellent job in making the audience believe why Steve was fighting and why we should be rooting for him. At times during the movie I just wanted to start yelling out “USA! USA! USA!”
