garasu no kamen

















My precioussss preciousss.... here's some details of the bust of the two queens... Ardis is such a cutie... "lastoniaaa watashi no kuniiii" LOL I could go on for ever on glass mask.
This story gabbed my heart in 1983 and since then I have never been able to stop thinking about it... now up until a few weeks ago there was always something to keep me running... the ongoing manga, the chapter that came in the magazine after the mangaka started slowing down (curse you suzue miuchi are you working on this thing's ending?).... the new anime.
well it's all over now. Unless volume 43 comes out soon I have nothing else to do but stare at my precious set.
the camera loves him

It was not my intention to focus on masumisama... the camer did it on its own.... hehehehehe... but oh well, I think masumisama looks a bit like gacchan here hahahahha...
deda needs to eat lunch I think... O___O

Woah calm down sensei... no wonder you get a heart attack every 16 pages O_O

Just so you know... Mayachan is bleeding from her mouth here... isn't that a nice detail? LOL (click to enlarge the picture ------------->)
the garakame set


alright story of this set. It was really hard to get. On ebay? most impossible prices so I got two sets from a japanese store who sent it to my friend's house in Japan and his mom sent it to me and i sent her chocolate to thank her.
In short I paid (chocolate and shipping fee included) for two sets as much as they would charge me for half a set on ebay.
The other set went to my friend as a present for she sent me something like 90 euros in manga material out on a whim... woah! that's the least I could do to thank her.
This set has a secret figure that consists in the Masumi Hayami figures with purple roses in his hand... but it's the same figure... just with roses...
what the heck....
Maison Ikkoku





























Maison Ikkoku was a very sweet and funny manga/anime.
I used to watch it when I was in university right after lunch, before studying.
I have to say this set is not very nicely done... unlike most of the ones I have.... who are airbrushed and have perfect mold... this almost seems a product for perverted otakus (you can peek up the girls' skirt and they have white panties LOL XD).
Kyoko's broom... I cannot get it to straighten up... but then again after seeing how the other girl leans on godai maybe she is bending it out of rage LOL.
my favorite pieces are Sochiro, Yotsuya, and akemi.... ichinose dancing is hilarious too.
















I will never finish this set and besides it's quite problematic... comes in 3 colors so it's a huge 21 pieces risky thing to get (trading figures, you never know what you get) plus the special figures comes out bits and pieces hiding with the other ones... O_O and so I got a half a goku...
Honesly I wanted the pervy looking muten sensei who talks to the mermaid, so i was quite lucky, bought two dragon balls and got a bronze (crappy) one and the one I wanted... plus pieces of goku in his wedding dress... these dragon balls things are no onger available or I would have tried my luck for the Piccolo figure.

p.s. you can see the little house (kame house) and small palms in the bg.... and isn't Muten's pervy expression just precious? LOL
hakushi daimahou

Mago pancion etci' in Italian... I only miss one piece of this set and thanks to my dear friend Gnoma I might get my hands on it pretty soon.
this cartoon aired when I was very young, I don't quite remember it well, I just remember I used to laugh my ass off at every single episode... whas somewhat similar to a doraemon kind of thing...
anyway the set looked gorgeous and I started collecting the piece... even cheated peeking in the boxes to find all the pieces LOL
Captain Harlock

















After the spaceship... the man himself... could a pirate be any more hot than this? droooooool


better pic of the DB mecha.
tezuka mon amour II




























so this is the actual first set of tezuka's masterpieces... it's quite tiny... but very details and so much fun to put together, awesome mold, awesome plastic... smells fantastic LOL
Oo. Jaaaack II .oO
















this other Jack is the other love of my life... as hard as it may seem to believe my favorite one is the center one, with Jack sitting on the statue of the angel,
that is my favorite scene in the movie... when he sings "what I have I done" (It was so friggin Phantom of the Opera came to his senses kinda thing LOL).... and I love that tune very much too and I like how he goes from sad to being his old self again.
Just wonderful.
I love the details in these toys but oooh they are so teeny tiny and it was hard to put them togeter without breaking them (I did have two accidents on the sleight one sob)
but hey.... isn't this set just gorgeous? (and it was cheap too)
Mirai Otoko Conan

















family grows... my little airplane found a gimsi with his little piggies.
Magical girls!





























This is the famous set of Majokkos... the magical ghirls....
ask me the names in japanese? maybe I know one of them.... these girls were on tv when I was a little girl... Bia vs noah (blue hair and pink hair girl) were witches trying to compete to become queen of the withc kingdom (yeah sounds like sugar sugar rune right?), sally the girl on the broom was princess to the witch kingdom and came to earth to learn... stuff.... Lily the blond girl was looking for the flower with seven colors to save the magical kingdom..... and she traveled the world but the thing was growing right in her backyard (how ironic) LOL
oh boy I love mojokkos!
the arcadia II



My own spaceship... after years of yearnings... my own pirate spaceship.... muahahahahaha.
the guy rip me off though, I pay 15 buck fro this... it aint' that big either... but what the heck... it's the friggin' arcadia!
Captain Harlock's ship!
PRECIOUSSSSSSSS!


I sure hope my precious... will never ask for food.

E se dovessero svegliarsi un giorno e domandare pane... andrei fallita.....

I had a friend who used to do this: call me the moment she got home after we separated for the day. We said bye bye see ya tomorrow, she'd go home and call me: I am home. I'd say: cool. We'd talk for 20 minutes then hang up.
One day she didn't call and I was having dinner, so i didn't notice her call didn't come. She called me after dinner and said: " where you worried?"
that's when I realized... oh that's why she calls.
our other friend, instead, demanded that she would call her as soon as she got home... and if she didn't call then the other friend would call her and see if she was okay. The other friend would freak out and scold her: you didn't call? I was worried.
funny thing... I am still friend with this girl, she is my oldest, bestest friend... the other friend went her own way.
in the end, I think people show they care in different ways and we each are dense our own way.
my mom always says: the good horse, you cannot judge from the start but from its arrival at the end line.
I think you can get a picture after seeing many things of people...
me I alwasy try to go 360 degree around a person, if I stopped at 180 I'd be dating pretty boys.

I love dumbo!















I got this as a b-day present. I love the ravens pushing him from behind. Funny enough that year I got another one, a different one, for my b-day as well. So I got 2 Dumbo's gasha for my b-day, ppl must really know I am a serious Dumbo lover.












I got this set at wondercon. I got a box of 6 and found the full set inside. the two spare ones I gave to my friends, one of which had fallen in love with the blue vehicle. I love toriyama mecha design that is why I got this set.
