Family members

Last night went to my sister's house for dinner. So bored... lucky i bring along my camera set too.. so i can play with my EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens again. Is quite amazing, without flash i can get very good and sharp photos. I just adjust the setting to 1/125 f1.8 ISO1600. Due to high ISO, the pic have more noise but...... Everythings looks fine to me....

My family lowest ranking monsters, Dion and Russell.

And my family highest ranking, Empress Dowager.

Resident Evil Figure

Resident Evil Movie is hitting the town again. Every way and everyone is talking about the movie and Milla Jovovich. Even toy maker such as Hottoys also try to produce Resident Evil figure for their Q4. But sad to say the figure they coming out is not the movie version but the computer game version. How nice if they produce a figure with Milla Jovovich face.

This is the coming Hottoys Resident Evil Figure and some Newspaper article in HK.

Exs/S Gundam U.C.0087

I used to play Gundam 1/100 model kits. But once Bandai launch their 1/144 Gundam Fix Figuration (GFF), I give up the modeling kits coz the GFF is more detail and nicer. In another word... i am MALAS (lazy in English). Took a few photos of my favorite GFF in my collections. The Exs/S Gundam U.C.0087 series. This Exs/S Gundam GFF is very detail and full of gears and weapons. When you hold in hand is very solid. It come with a stands too... Took this GFF with a white color background. Will try with other color background and post later.

You wanna be naughty?

I am not a PVC figure collector. But this Yamato 1/6 Poison is very HOT. Imaging a cop dress up like this will make alot of people commit crime just get in-touch with her. This Poison is made by master sculptor Mitsumasa Yoshizawa. Poison comes complete with highly details metal chains, handcuffs, arm rings, and display base. Is a must get item, will cost me RM258 or 7,140円 in Japan. But now is pre-ordering, will only get this item by November 2007.
