Winter Japan

Yeah, it's my second trip to Japan for 2016 and it was quite a blast. Even though I'm there as a guide, I managed to grabbed the following hauls.

A new Head Porter toiletries bag

Another Porter bag by Kura Chika, a medium size sling bag

I broke my Bose earphones while on flight, broke the jack when I got up to make way for the window seat passenger. Snagged this Monster at a rather cheap price.

What's Japan without toys? Held back buying these in Singapore as it's double the price.

My growing collection of work boredom

Couldn't get my jinbei but I found the best alternative

Some sale items from Adidas that I couldn't pass

Now this was some sort of impulsive buy but who wouldn't...
So nice to hug and make as a head pillow.,

More Collection Galore

The November batch of pre-orders arrived and was super excited for them. It felt so exhilarating opening up a box with tons of toys in it.

Transformers Masterpiece MP-33 Inferno

3 of 4 TMNT (Ralph)

4 of 4 TMNT (Mikey)

More Pose Skeleton Figures and Accessories

Another local pre-order I collected was quite thrilling. Its a combiner link up to MP Star Saber to form Victory Saber. It may not be produced by Takara-Tomy but the figure is a solid as the original brand.

 

Game On!!!

After the long wait, it's finally here!!!

Latest Wave of Collections

Second half of the year are normally a busy period for me and a financial crunch too. I don't get to spend as much as the earlier months. Most of the purchase thereafter are all my collections or geek stuff.

Pre-STGCC purchase. Saw these in 2015 but it was too expensive. Gotten it at a quarter of the actual price from Facebook Collectors group.

I had the chance to go STGCC this year with a friend. There were so many awesome things to get but I streamlined my collection and only bought those that I really like.

Deadpool-centric with the Cos-Baby out of impulse and the Deadpool Tee that I wanted to get the previous year. The Star Wars postcards were something I bought to snap and use it as my mobile wallpaper

Another addition to the Titan Return Headmasters

Lastly, I've pre-ordered quite a handfull of stuffs from AmiAmi and the first wave is up for delivery.

I've been having a blast with Pose Skeleton. Want to get more!!!

51st NDP

The 51st National Day is on Tuesday so I begged for an annual leave on Monday so I can have four days to fly out of Singapore. Yes, I'm not that patriotic. However, I really wonder why I agreed to go on a holiday that period because it's SUMMER. I told myself not to do it again ever since my summer experience in Shanghai.

This time round we went to another Chinese region which is Hong Kong. I travelled with Evelyn and Hakimbo who intimidate me with another toy hunt after my Japan disappointment. Truth be told, I did enjoy shopping in Hong Kong this time round. I've gotten all that I've hoped for.

The Hong Kong ToyHunt was more fruitful than the one in Japan:

Top Left: Transformers Titan Returns Head Masters

Top Right: Meisho Star Wars Taikoyaku Stormtrooper - Managed to get it dirtcheap

Bottom Left: TFC Hades Aikos - Bought it cheaper than my pre-order hence I had to cancel

Bottom Right: Star Wars Disney Store Exclusive General Grievious and Darth Maul - Meant to resell

I know I have tons of clothes but I just can't not buy them:

Top Left: COS V-neck T-shirt - I just love teh fabric

Top Right: H&M Sports running jacket - It look so sleek

Bottom Left: H&M hooded T-shirt - Just love it

Bottom Right: Zara Camo Mandarin Collar Shirt - On sale

Other than that, I love the rest that I've gotten:

Top: Books from Page One, I love books

Bottom Left: Yoshida Porter Hong Kong Exclusive Pouch

Bottom Right: Adidas Original X700

Temporary Satisfaction

I've been having a bad week and was quite disappointed at how things got along. I need a quick cheer-me-up which was quite damaging.

I've been eyeing this line for a while before it's release due to the Headmasters gimmick. One of Four purchase

Even after a purchase of the latest Titan Returns Transformers, yet another disappointment occurred that made me look for an alternative satisfaction. This time I've went online and found below item at half the price I've found it in Tokyo.

Was shocked by the scarcity and price of this figure in Tokyo

In addition, my pre-order was ready for collection and I was stoked to collect it. The pre-order was meant for the last 2 pieces but the sixth figure was delayed.

5 of 6 collected

Thankfully, I'm satisfied with my haul and eased of from most of the disappointment. I don't wish this to continue as it's quite an expensive therapy.

Pre Ramadan Retreat

It's getting to regular that I'll head up Kuala Lumpur just before the month of Ramadan begins. Mainly for the food galore but we weren't craving for anything. We just wanted the retreat and maybe do some shopping for the upcoming festive holiday.

First stop, SPAO! It's hard to admit that I have to wear size XL for this brand just because the Koreans are a bunch of weenies.

Since SPAO was within Parkson, I managed to get this product which wasn't meant to be out till July but the salesperson was so nice to sell it to me.

This was impulsive. It was on offer for Toys R Us

No KL trip would be completed without a visit to Kinokuniya. They have the best range of local authors at dirt cheap prices.

Last find was at Muji which I could have gotten it while I was in Japan but the outlet are different. It is still cheaper, hence it's a win.
