Huat bot!

Huat! Armored VF-1J topped with 2 lucky fishies... :) This is the new 1/60 V2 VF-1J with armored pack, the old 1/48 one and v1 of the 1/60 scale were pretty crap. This one fit very well with nothing dropping off at the slightest touch whew!

Toys are pretty darn expensive now, ah, the good old days when i could get a GIJOE fig for $5. Saving pocket money for a week, i would go to the toy shop at USSC to buy Cobra figures... i've always bought the bad guys only, dunno why. :P

I'm back into collecting LEGO again, it's been a longggggg time. I've had a few space sets back then, always so cool to build it up and have hours of imaginary space adventures! Hope my son can have the same, next time have to support his toy hobby too! :)

Well, it was a quiet Sunday, din go out, recuperated over an exciting Friday/Saturday.. back to slog again tomorrow!

Gundammmmm!

Played an arcade game called "Gundam : Senjo no Kizuna" (Bonds of the battlefield ) today with my buddy colin, the games take place in a gigantic pod with a 180 degree view projected to the front. Can get kinda disorienting as the forward screen really fills your vision. As my buddy said, imagine the possiblity if they had an Xwing simulator using this. ;)

Din really manage to get a co-op game going, coulda used the headset/mike to have comms, that would be cool. Well, right now i'm ranked "二等兵", which is Private 2nd class.. booo! Apparently there are 8 of these pods in Bugis Virtualand, and 4 in AMK HUB? But sadly, looks like the pods will be removed on 21 Feb 2010, i guess demand is not too good.

Well, will try a few more times before it goes, the last fight of the MS 02th Team "Screwheads"! ;)

Why's it called a TIE fighter?

Star wars fans will definately know what the acronym for the empire's
iconic 'cannon fodder' ships is; i mean, even the sound is unique!

It does look like two pieces for cardboard stuck to an egg, that much i'll
admit. Apparently the empire's engineers ain't paid much. :p

But see the following Family Guy clip for what TIE can mean. ;)
