It's raining toys. Ouch.

More on the title later :

Headed down to Uncle Ng's today after the meeting, and DAMMIT I SHOULD'VE PICKED UP SEAHORSE THAT DAY. He was nice enough to spare me one , but that meant that I had to settle for that one piece, which thankfully was in pretty good condition. Still. I had 12 pieces to choose from that day : \ So with Seahorse Baian ($55) in hand, I'm all caught up with SS Myth Cloth!

I opened up Seahorse Baian cos it was double sealed, so wanted to check if everything was ok. Pretty good piece, it actually looks more interesting in person than in pictures. After putting him back in the box, I decided to open up Merak Hagen, which I was intending to do last night but too tired to.

Now about the entry title.

I wanted to display Hagen, so I thought I would take the Myth Cloth stand that currently holds SIC Faiz Blaster and SIC Ibuki. It's a perilous task to do that cos that shelf is PACKED. To the BRIM. And I certainly paid a price for that. On moving SIC Todoroki, EVERYTHING in front just FELL. So down came SH Den-O sword, rod and axe forms, Sasword and SIC Zanki. Onto my messy side table below. Sword Form's shoulder plates came out in the process, intiating a panicked search amongst the mess, but thankfully I found them. On hindsight, if not for the mess, they would have hit the floor which was MUCH further below. Anyway, no real casualties, although I think Rod form had a bit of the mask scratched, although I can't really tell.

The irony?

I had the spare Myth Cloth stands which I got from KL. So I used them in the end. *sigh*

While rearranging the figures on the shelf, I had a bloody shock: SH Zabee's left forearm just CAME OFF. Yes, the joint just snapped right off! WTF!! I'm just waiting for Sheng Tai to bring in Kabuto now, so I can get a cheap replacement for Zabee >:

Anyway, it's the eve of CNY tmrw, so Happy Lunar New Year to all! Here's to a wonderful year of the Rat!

20% Storewide Sales: Gotta Love 'Em.

Metro had a storewide 20% off today, which I saw them putting up signs for LAST NIGHT, meaning I had to come back today : \

But it was worth it I must say! The sale extended to yellow tag items too, meaning they had a further discount of the already discounted price! So I picked up Exo Force Blade Titan ($30.50 less 20%) which I have been meaning to get for awhile, and Bionicle Gadunka ($29.90 less 20%). Also picked up a Robot Heroes Decepticon Sneak Atack 5 set for FW, I just love converting pple to TFs =D

I also went down to JL Marina yesterday to check out the sale, and picked up a spare SH Blade King Form ($14.95 with a further 20%: ), it's a cool set, and since it was $12, I thought what the heck. Heh.

And yes, my post about Incinerator and the Allspark cube on TFWorld 2005 was front paged, whoot! Only my fifth post there too! Glad the folks there appreciated the pics : )

Advent! Den-O Wing Form!

Whoot, managed to get Souchaku Henshin Wing Form ($45)! I was pretty dismayed when it was anounced that SH Wing Form would be a Yahoo! Japan Limited edition, which pretty much meant that I had almost no chance of getting it. So imagine my horror when I realised that Mikelz did a pre-order for it AND I MISSED THE DEADLINE.

I immediately mailed Mike explaining the oversight and whether there were any pieces left for me. While he didn't have any on hand, it was really great of him to order another piece for me! So! I finally have it in my hand! Thanks Mike!

Wing Form is a Yahoo! Japan X Bandai Limited figure, and like most Bandai mail order pieces, it comes packed in a brown corrugated box, like the SS Myth Cloth mail-away specials. A pre-order was done on Yahoo! Japan, and the item was only released in end December. Being a more unique form of Den-O's his gold and white really makes him stand out from the majority black of the other forms. The base body is the same as the other SH Den-O figures. The main differences in the set would be the shoulder pieces, which are larger, his henshin belt buckle, his dual weapons and of course, his face mask.

A very nice piece which definitely makes a great addition if you're collecting the SH Den-O figures!
