‘Tis the season to be jolly.

I realise I am several hours late. Who cares. >.>

Fariz and I decided to do a little something special to celebrate: hold a Nendoroid christmas party!

I mean, the alternative would be to spam pictures from imageboards and such, so…


Len on the left, Rin on the right. You know who’s in the center.

This also marks the very first time I’m handling my own figurines, and they’re Nendoroids to boot. Fariz was there to show me the ropes though, both on photography as well as figurine handling. ^.^


Len can’t stand wearing a traffic cone on his head.

I also learned how difficult it was to pose figurines “fresh from the box”, since as Fariz put it, the separate parts get stuck together from being cooped up for so long. I guess it was a good thing we had this shoot, lest they be cooped up in their boxes for longer.


Christmas hug!

I was a lil’ afraid I’d break something, but luckily nothing really happened.

The hats were just cut-out semicircles rolled into cones. I had originally wanted to fold origami paper hats (since I love origami), but I couldn’t find any suitable for what I had in mind.


Nyan nyan~

By the way, I wouldn’t call this an “official figurine review”, especially since we were rushing to finish the shoot by midnight. I’ll still review my Nendoroids (as well as the Figma) when I find the time (somehow). Fariz somehow finds his free time easily.


Yay, thankies! ^.^

Also, I received this Gundam as a Christmas present from a friend of mine. I was surprised (since we don’t exactly celebrate Christmas here.), but grateful nonetheless. Maybe I’ll assemble this and put it on display…

When I find the time.

And before someone shouts “ripped-off”, OG had a 20% discount sale, so he bought it for ~$80+. Not bad, though back in the day Fariz was buying each of his 1/100 models for ~$60 if I recall.

Also, yes, we had a lil’ banner redesign several days before. Fortunately, I managed to make my own Christmas hats via this lil’ tutorial to plop on our “mascots’” heads. Not too shabby a job if I do say so myself.

Also, a couple of Christmas songs to spread the cheer!

All that aside, a very merry Christmas to everyone who have (in one way or another) supported us, including Team Blue and all our other friends! Hope you guys get great presents (if you truly celebrate it that is).

Merry christmas to all our readers and commenters too! Hopefully, by next year, the Nendoroids will be able to afford cotton wool for their hats.

Hopefully.

P.S.: The blog might be taken down within the next few days just for a bit to upgrade WordPress to 2.7, so don’t fret if your page suddenly doesn’t load. XD
