The Start of 2018

The start of the new year and the toys keeps coming in. Still managing the space to store them but luckily some of the packaging are small or they are model kits.

First wave of toys are from AmiAmi. Transformers Masterpiece was a preorder while the other 2 SHFiguarts were revenge of not getting them during the last Christmas Trip to KL.

I had the chance to go on a trip with my best friend after a year of not travelling together. It was more of a chill trip and there wasn't a need to splurge unnecessarily. I've only gotten the following:
Replacement Ripcurl Slippers
The Face Shop Star Wars Facial Set
Star Wars Mini Vehicle Model Kit
Uniqlo Airism Briefs
The remaining are more toy purchase from local toyshop and another round of AmiAmi.
TFC Trinity Force - Third Party Transformers Road Caesar Combiners
Too cute and I just love SHFiguarts

KL Christmas Trip

This is considered as my 3rd KL trip in 2017, however the intention was to bring a fellow collector to Kuala Lumpur for a toy hunt, bringing him to the usual hunt at Times Square and Sungai Wang, and also to bring him around to eat.

We also managed to visit a recommended toy hunt venue at Amcorp Mall, which I found to be surprising accessible by train. We went crazy just into the first shop we walked in.
Spreading out my spoils which covered up the Christmas tree
First order of business was to get all the required model kit from Times Square at either the Gunpla shop or IT Toys (main distributor of Tamashii Nation). Managed to get them all from IT Toys which was relatively cheaper. I've also gotten SHFiguarts Vegeta to complete my Z-Warriors. Lastly, I just had to get the Meisho Star Wars YumiAshigaru Stormtrooper which I've been eyeing since STGCC 2016 showcase.
I've had an objective to get the Praetorian Guards from the new Star Wars The Last Jedi instalment and planning for a toy-shoot. It would either be from Hasbro Black Series or SHFiguarts. I've found the SHFiguarts and bought it right away at Amcorp. Man, that place is heaven, almost walked out with tons of toys if not for my baggage limit.
What is a KL trip without a visit to Kinokuniya for the local author hunt. The following are added to the current list of unread books which I planned to read in 2018.
Since it's Christmas, most shops are having the annual Christmas sale and it was disappointing.
Emporio Armani Swimwear
Uniqlo Baju Melayu
I did had trouble packing the spoils for flight. I had to bleed some into my friend space. In total, I'm shocked to have spent to near 1,000 SGD. The horror yet satisfaction.
