Matrix Sentinel by Hot Toys

Matrix Sentinel by Hot Toys

Often times I buy a figure for, shallow as it may be, their looks. Other times perhaps I like the character and ignore some of the more obvious production or design faults. This item however falls into neither category. I have no feelings towards the Matrix Sentinel, it wasn't a character I fell in love with nor is it particularly attractive, actually it's probably the least attractive thing I own. I suppose at best it's kind of badass but mostly it's just squid-like. For the first time I bought an item solely on it's poseability.more »

“World is Mine” Hatsune Miku by Good Smile Company

01/03/2011  |  10 Comments

Now that I'm back in the game I thought I should get a review out the door as soon as possible. However, instead of doing something new I decided to go back to April 21st, 2010. What happened on that date? Well, Toronto had 13 hours 43 minutes of daylight and a waxing crescent moon that night. But more importantly I wrote a review for Hatsune Miku "World is Mine" and then never published it. It was 1400 words and had no pictures because I couldn't produce a set that I liked. And to be honest, I still haven't managed to produce one I'm 100% in favour of. So what will follow today is a mix of pictures I've taken of Hatsune Miku "World is Mine" and an edited version of the original review.more »

Sasasegawa Sasami, I knew you had black panties when I ordered you (thank you relfections!) but I am disappoint. Your black panties are plain and boring and your crotch rather wide!more »

It's not often I manage to acquire a whole set of something. Often there are obstacles like cost or availability that get in the way of completion. This time however, I've successfully acquired all five 1/6th scale Evangelion girls from Kotobukiya.more »

With the start of Yosuga no Sora this season along with Tier's demands I'll be reviewing Megahouse's Kasugano Sora. For a girl of her size she's certainly got the hips!more »

Good Smile Company's simplistic Misaka Mikoto figure arrived a week and a half ago and I have to say, I'm a little underwhelmed. But there are some external factors at work here.more »
