Inspired by Kodomut’s one-pix.
So finally the mid-term exams are over. hooray. I also got a new figure, Hinamori Amu. Read about her here
Thanksgiving is today, and for those of you who don’t know, in the US (Canada has thanksgiving too, but on a different day) on the 3rd Thursday in Novemer, americans think about what they’re thankful for, and often cook a big supper, usually with turkeys.
I hope everyone has a great day today!
So now, after being at home sick again for two weeks and spending another swimming in homework, I can finally update.
during this time I got some Prop Plus Petits, and my friends and I have been having a lot of fun with them. they are smaller that my pinkie, so they’ve been going everywhere with me, so here are some shots that they’ve been around for. (I personally wanted a hide-and-go-seek thing, but Evan Mikson deleted all of the ones where they were mostly hidden D=<)
Sir Bedevere: There are ways of telling whether she is a witch.
Peasant 1: Are there? Oh well, tell us.
Sir Bedevere: Tell me. What do you do with witches?
Peasant 1: Burn them.
My good camera is still at school, so you’ll get a full and good Halloween story next week =3
“Hmm… this looks like something my nendoroids could use” was the first thing that was in my head when I saw this.
These are Gogos. apperently they are some sort of toy from Europe, as an exclusive release in the U.S.
They come randomly, with three to a pack and stickers of them as well. The three that I got was Toki(left), Aka(center), and Koko(right)
Until next time!
As Most of you have noticed, Bootleg figures have become a big problem recently. Heck, My very first figure was a bootleg.
This needs to stop, and the only way this can happen is if people don’t buy bootlegs.
Some tips for Identifying Bootlegs
General-
-More than 30% below retail price. It is SO hard to make a profit with most figures if the figure is priced this low and real (Not to say that all figures below 30% are bootlegs.)
- material – Many times bootleggers can’t get the same kind of Material the original was made out of, so many times the material is shiny or the wrong shade..
-selling before the actual product is out- I think that’s self-explanitory
-different positions- Eyes facing wrong way, hand pointing wrong way, etc…
Nendoroids-
It is IMPOSSIBLE to sell a nendoroid for less than $20 and still make a profit (excluding petits)\
Sellers (Ebay)-
-use offical shots – be sure to ask the seller for pictures of the product, otherwise they just use “official shots”
-Has less than 98% seller feedback. even so, I personally wouldn’t go ordering without checking at 99.5% even more so if they’ve sold over 200 Items.
Please check feedback please though. I know a seller who sometimes got bad feedback on issues that Should have contected him first, and that severely hurt them.
-check for official sticker on the box!
-I (personally) always check if they say that they are selling authentics, because if they do, chances are better that they are than not. (I have yet to see a seller who says they sell authentic items but really doesn’t.)

Miyuki with the cactus flower
Today when I went to work I brought Miyuki with me. She had a lot of fun Exploring the flowers that we keep there.
I wonder if I should press the clear key...
Phwee?
Then when I got back from work there was a bouquet on the table.
Spot the Nendoroid!
After the shoot…
Phwee?
…It’s for pictures like the ones in this post that I wish I had a better camera…
So during the past two weeks, I just got my new laptop. it is, simply put, amazing.
But moving on, I have another story here from Fail.
so everyday, in this castle, I’m left alone. It would be nice except for…
This.Stupid.Thing.
I think we should just get rid of it. It stalks me everywhere. What a creeper.
I mean, it stalks me here!
…and here!
and even when I’m-
…go away.
…Miyuki won’t notice…
So this was supposed to be be up yesterday, sorry.
So being sick all of this week, I was sent to school on Friday to get my homework. But I wasn’t the only one Going to school.
It looks like L is doing some primping as well.
Finally, he’s ready.
Meanwhile…
“Where’s my uniform?…”
