November 8, 2009

moe 8509 sample

So tomorrow, November 10th, my final exams shall commence and will end on December 3rd. After that, it will be the beginning of a ton of new things for both this blog and Actar’s Reviews.

I shall elaborate further after my exams, but I shall finally be able to write and post a number of Articles that I have been meaning to do for some time. As for Actar’s Reviews, I will not only try out other video editing programs, but I will also experiment with my reviewing style. Most importantly, I’ll be catching up with the current releases. Actar’s Reviews on overdrive!

Last but not least, despite Actar’s Reviews being on haitus, I shall be continuing to blog. The two upcoming posts you can look forward to are my experiences with EVA 2.0 and my coverage of AFA09.

Definitely the best figure of Nia, from Gurren Lagann, to be produced thus far that is surprisingly made by a relatively unknown figure company ‘uplark’.

Happy Children’s Day to me! Even though I’m not a ‘children’ anymore… yeah… Anyways, it is indeed a Happy Children’s Day for me as my second musume arrives from the land of the rising sun! If you haven’t identified her yet, whe is none other than Ranka Lee, one of the two songstress(es?) of Macross Frontier, that sang alongside Sheryl Nome.

Today marks another special event as well. This is the first time I’m actually attempting to do a figure photoshoot with an SLR Camera, a Nikon D200 to be exact, and I hope the pictures turn out well! (^.^)

Instead of becoming a Dollfie collector, which I probably never will due to the price, I have become a collector of 1/6 scale dolls!
