Otakai at Toycon 2010
Tomorrow is Toycon already XD
Well as the title says, you know what it means again XD
We were lucky enough to be invited to have a display though we were given only 1 cab this time but you can expect really good displays such as K-On! Nendos, figmas and large figures, some exclusives here and there and some really old but still really adorable stuff for the crowd. This time, there will be some foreign visitors, so... you can expect somewhat the best of the best we got, some of the really notable would be Alter's Yagyu Jubei swimsuit (limited to around 1500 pieces over the world I think), Nendoroid Snow Miku and the K-On! figmas (less Azusa)
So, again, local readers... I'd like to invite you to drop by at our booth tomorrow and on Sunday. ^^

Otakai at Ozine 2010
It's just less than a month away!
It's almost here and we are back to display once more!
Like last year's Ozine Festival, Otakai had a figure display and it had a good feedback, I guess. Wasn't part of the bigger community since I was just another regular member in the forums back then. Last time, I think we have 3 or 4 cabs but this time is gonna be big. We have 6 cabs and expect a heavy display this year. Am also one of the Ozine Fest committee this year, so... YAY ME! XD Anyway, as you can see on the banner above, it's on April 9 to 11 at SM Megamall Megatrade Halls 1 and 2. I'd like to invite local readers to drop by our booth. Also, this would be the first time I'm volunteering for the display since I failed to last Ozine and AOF.
Anyways, what to expect for the display...
1.) Alter's 1/7 Mahou Shoujou Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS line (yes, every piece except Shamal and Unison Vita since Shamal won't make it in time and Rein will be on display so we can't have Unison Vita around)
2.) Max Factory 1/8 Gekisou line
3.) Banpresto Ichiban Kuji Lucky Star x Macross Frontier line
4.) Kotobukiya 1/9 Marvel Bishoujou line
5.) Kaiyodo Revoltech Queen's Blade line
6.) K-On!, Macross Frontier, Miku and many more (including male figures for our female visitors)
7.) A variety of Figmas, Nendoroids and Revoltechs
8.) Kamen Rider S.H. Figuarts and Robot Damashiis (yes, we will be including Kamen Riders and Mechs this year for display)
9.) A variety of Square Enix's Play Arts and Play Arts Kai
And last but certainly not the least...
10.) Otakai's very own Figure Award Winners with a special appearance of 2008's Figure of the Year.
The display this year would certainly be great, so, look forward to it. ^^ One thing though is a major problem, April 9, a Friday, should've been a holiday but this is the Failippines and it spells capital FAIL for the government. Apparently, the current administration likes to move holidays so April 9 would be moved to April 5 and now, I'm having quite a big problem for ingress night on April 8. Tsk.

Murakami's Updates (October '09) Part 3
Black Rock Shooter... So near, yet so far!!!!
Just some personal updates again XD
Asakura has landed!
Such sweet innocent face, the next you know...
You've been stabbed!
Well, as you know, I've won the bid for Max 1/8 Ryoko at the recent sale at riuva and today, it just arrived at a fellow Otakai member's, who did the proxy payment for me and lelouch, place and we get to claim them on Sunday, yay! 2nd Ryoko has arrived. More to come, too!! Today is already excellent!
Kotobukiya Disposal
Following the recent prize figs disposal I made, I'm in Kotobukiya disposal this time, only limiting them to Shining Wind and Tales series now and probably some really really good sculpt if ever. I'm selling my Uesugi Kenshin and Louise right now, Louise was sold quite quickly though.
AOF Display
Otakai will be having a display again on AOF event on November. And I still haven't volunteered a fig, supposedly I'm in for Mikus but everyone else got ahead already. So, I'll go all out on Mikus next Ozine, but rather for AOF, I'm thinking of having my SHnY figs on display which is Mikuru, Ryoko and Yuki. Any opinions?
Starting a new line...

Maximum Delay!
Yeah, which explains the comment below BRS's pic. Supposedly, BRS was coming out this month after being delayed for 2 months but no... Like effing Saber Lily, which hasn't arrived at the local stores yet, she's been delayed by 2 months and later on, a month. Come one GSC, what are you doing!? what's more annoying, a few moments after announcing the delay, GSC kicks off with a new commercial for their BRS Cannon and Blade versions. You can view it at their site.

ToyCon and 1 Year Anniversary
Celebration time, eh? Hehe, had a blast at ToyCon yesterday.
Well, June 14, 2008 was the first day of ToyCon last year. It dealt the biggest change for me probably, haha, it was the very day that I brought home a blue haired chick in her PVC glory scaled 1/8 from G Gundam, who is none other than Allenby Beardsley, my very first PVC figure. Yes, toycon last year was the start of all the things that are killing my wallet almost every month. Haha, so, instead of the date, I will be marking every ToyCon day 1 as my anniversary, hehehe.
Well, the usual I guess, a lot of shops there including the favorite local stores GT and Wasabi. Good prices here and there and sometimes, you see some rare items for sale there but as there are many booths, BLs also lurk from here to there, I can't believe I'm seeing those nendo Imouto BLs and her kind. Oh dear... The thing is, probably the most powerful weapon in this convention is to hag the shops, I actually helped my friend buy the Koto Saber from Wasabi by hagging it from sir Pats since my friend was lacking 200 bucks to get the Saber. Well, as for my hauls I didn't have to hag anymore since it was already a bargain. Hehe, anyway here are some things of interest in the displays at ToyCon '09.
One of the best sights in ToyCon '09!
I like how they're arranged XD
Tickets for ROTF sold there. :D
G1 Prime from Hero TV booth
Gold Plated LC Prime
They were busy fixing this display, probably the biggest display there is
So, I took a video instead.
Those aren't all, you can view more on my multiply site, but I'm still uploading the pics right now. XD Anyway for my 1-year Anniversary hauls.
I got Rider for a really great deal at 2Rats and got the Hybrid Style Galaxy Convoy from a fellow Otakai member, though the Galaxy Convoy won't be mine for long, it's gonna be my sister's on July, so, for now, I'll enjoy having it under my property. :D Well there's one more haul left to complete my anniversary and it's supposed to have arrived earlier than these two and it's none other than Zero. Hopefully he arrives some time this week already.
Here's my current cab as of Anniversary day, I've put a plastic cover to help in dust reduction.
Changes from last cab update:
- Soft (blob) Xecty now on display, it seems further box preservation makes her distorted.
- Clain and Orchid Seed PVCs shifted to mid level
- Fate Stay Night and Kamen Rider in the upper level
- shifted SHnY(Mikurus) to upper level
- removed Gasha Lacus
- MegaHouse goodies shifted to upper level
- Miku Shrine on the lower left area

Galaxy Convoy's already in my sister's Convoy Mountain, but I'll take it out later for photoshoot. :D
