Tamama Common Soldier


Still on the Sgt. Frog passion, I have completed my next kit - Tamama with common soldier outfit. This is an easy build and I didn't want to apply any color to the kit initially but somehow, still did it :)

As usual, I will apply a layer of matt coat to provide a uniform texture.

Keroro Robo

A slight deviation from the usual; I have embarked on a new type of model kit - the Keroro. My wife actually likes it as she finds it cute. She has even popped the question: "Can you buy more of these?" There are two possible thoughts which I can derive from this statement: (1) she likes to have more Keroro kits on display, (2) she finds the usual gundam kits which I have BORING. I remembered once she said Gundams looks all the same; can't blame her as I will usually say "you bag designs doesn't deviate much; why are you buy the same thing again". Ha ha! Anyway, here's the pics of the assembled Keroro Robo

Gundam Astray - Red Frame (HG 1/144)

Here's a long overdue kit which I have started 2 yrs ago but never really did have the time to settle down and complete it. It's finally done now.

Astray vs Mudflap: "Let's see who has more red!"

Sangokuden GuanYu



My first post on my Gundam collection. I have just completed this model based on Sangokuden SD Gundam. This model will be given to my brother-in-law to complement his real GuanYu character figurine. Initial intention was just to have the character itself; when I bought the display case, it turns out that there's some vacant space vertically and it makes the display looked a little mispositioned. In the end, the horse was introduced. The horse was silver but I decided to give this hero a metallic black horse and it turns out quite nice! :)

Hotwheels 250GTO and Scorching Scooter


I'm back in Manila and as usual, I went for my rounds. It seems that the recent release of Hotwheels doesn't attract my attention; I was quite disappointed when browsing through the sets. Anyway, I only managed to end up getting these; Black Ferrari 250GTO and Scorching Scooter

Hotwheels gono Biking!


Ok, I have suddenly got attracted to the Hotwheels bikes; I don't know why but once I take them out from the card, they just look so unique. So here they are; from left to right "Pit Cruiser" (I think I have got this a few months back), OCC Splitback, Canyon Carver. Oh BTW, OCC stands for Orange Counter Chopper.

Hotwheels Ferrari 308GTS

As Singapore is preparing for their 2nd F1 Night Race, 7-Eleven taking this opportunity, with Hotwheels, to boost their sales. And of course, it will work with a person like me as I'm personally a Ferrari diecast collector whenever my wallet permits ;). Here's what I have got
I can only say I simply love this model as I think it's very detail for Hotwheels standard. Other than this, another model that was worth taking note is the Yellow Dino 268GTS from Hotwheels; I like single color paint jobs for Ferraris and I think that's because with a single paint job, you can really see the curve and shape of these wonderful Ferrari designs. I'll try to post a pic of it next time. I have the previous release of the Dino 268GTS but it was full of decals and I ended up not admiring it (well, just me).
