Display Steps

My girlfriend and I decided that the widely spaced shelves that we display our figures on and the large quantity of small figures didn't make a good combination. She suggested displaying the figures using acrylic steps as a solution and so we decided to get some between us.

I bought some two-tier ste...

 
WonFes Summer 2010 - Cocktail Drink Figure

Continuing on from my first article on WonFes Summer 2010, here are some more photos of the huge variety of garage kits and figures on display. If you haven’t read the first article yet, please take a look here!

These figures in cocktail and sundae glasses were cute – it’s hard to believe, but thes...

 
Figure Parts Container

I've just had to start a new box to put my figure parts in - I use these great plastic compartmentalised boxes from Hobby Craft, which are just the right size for Nendoroid parts and faces. Really helps keep them accessible and safe. How do you store your figure parts? In the original boxes, in plas...

 
Week 4 - Churuya-san

Another late article - lots of stuff going on in the real world! Churuya-san features in this week's One Week, One Nendoroid - along with her Petit Nendoroid counterpart, which came with a special edition Churuya-san manga. In the world of Churuya-san, it's not just the cake that's a lie - it's the ...

 
Akihabara

Since I've been getting nostalgic about visiting Japan recently, I'd thought I'd share some of my pictures and videos of Akihabara. For those who don't know of Akihabara, it's a shopping district in Tokyo that is a mecca for anyone interested in computers, electronics, games and otaku goodies. If yo...

 
Week 6 - Azusa Nakano

Having said in the last One Week, One Nendoroid article that it's been a while, it's been slightly more than a while since that one! August has been a busy month for us and it looks like September is going to be the same.

I finally got round to picking up my Azusa Nendoroid from the parents last week...

 
WonFes Summer 2010

My girlfriend and I recently had the fortune to be able to attend Wonder Festival Summer 2010, having planned our holiday to Japan especially so that we could attend. Wonder Festival (abbreviated to WonFes) is a twice-yearly event that brings together a mixture of official and unofficial manufacture...

 
Week 5 - Tsumugi Kotobuki

It's been a while since the last One Week, One Nendoroid - that's what moving out does for you! My girlfriend and I are pretty much settled in now and one of the first things we did was to make sure our collections of anime, manga and figures were well displayed... well, you can't say we're not obse...

 
Week 3 - Mio Akiyama

Another busy week last week so this week's Nendoroid is a bit behind schedule, but it does mean it's a week closer to having the fourth member of the band arrive! This week however it's time for Mio Akiyama from K-On! to take the stage. Let's hope she doesn't fall over, because if she does her shima...

 
K-On! Double Cosplay

The second Kitacon anime convention took place 26th to 28th March 2010 in Northampton. My girlfriend and I went, having been last year to the first Kitacon myself and enjoying it. Although I didn't get many pictures (I'm a bit shy to ask!), I'd like to share them and my experiences from the conventi...
