My Final POP... For The 1st-Half of this Year (Look What I Got 2014-04-10)

My Final POP... For The 1st-Half of this Year (Look What I Got 2014-04-10)

Picking up where I left off on my previous "Look What I Got" post. Here now is POP MAS - Tony Tony Chopper (Horn Point). This is my latest POP acquisition. My second POP MAS and my 44th POP (I'm not gonna be tired of counting them). I got it from Hobby-Frontier less than a month ago. This is gonna be my last POP for the 1st half of this year as my next POP preorder - POP MAS - Marco the Phoenix will be released late-June which I'll probably get my hands on by July.

"Inform the commander that Lord Vader has arrived... along with Luffy... and some decals"

Not more than a month ago, in a country not too far away.... a box was shipped.... A few days later, I received a box from HLJ.  And the contents... at last my very own Darth Vader figure and another addition to my POP collection - the captain of the Strawhats himself, plus a few decals for my Gunplas.

Again, as a continuation of my "Look What I Got" updates, here's next.

My March didn't end with just the strawhats but with a couple of 12 inchers. I got two Hot Toys from two different movie franchises, both Marvel characters though. One with metal armor inside the body and one with metal armor outside the body. These two are The Wolverine based on the movie of the same title and War Machine Mark II based on the movie Iron Man 3, though it doesn't really appeared in it. I got them both from a local hobby shop. Kinda painful in the wallet for having to pay two Hot Toys on the same day, but with a sigh of relief and excitement upon checking out the contents of these boxes.

Continuing my series of "Look What I Got" updates, here I got two Straw Hat crew POPs - the POP LIMITED - Nami (Mugiwara Ver.) and POP Edition-Z - Roronoa Zoro. I preordered both from Hobby-Frontier and I was able to get my hands on 'em about a month ago. Nami was a late-February release, same as POP Edition-Z - Monkey D. Luffy, while Zoro was released early-March.

It has been months since the last time I share to you my regular dose of hauls. Just been so busy lately that I haven't been able to update my blog on a regular basis. I do took photos of my every one of them so I'll be posting a series of "Look What I Got" from February to present. Let's start with the two unforgettable characters from One Piece. The POP Neo-DX - Nefertari Vivi and Figuarts ZERO - Portgas D. Ace (Cross Fire - Battle ver.). I got these two about a couple of months ago from one of my favorite online shop - Figmation, at a great deal.

A Cold Blooded Assassin

A Cold Blooded Assassin

So what if there's a lot of Kakashi figure? Well actually, I am one of those who were asking why MegaHouse seems to be giving a lot of love to Kakashi fans. I am a fan myself of Kakashi, but I'm also waiting for some other Naruto characters to be produced. This G.E.M. Series - Hatake Kakashi (ANBU Ver.) is the third of MegaHouse's G.E.M. Kakashi so I asked "why another one?" But then I asked again "Why not?"

Are You Considering this POP to be a Part of Your Collection?

Last Tuesday, 8th of April, MegaHouse officially opened up preorders for POP Sailing Again - Hyena Bellamy (check out the preorder announcement here). And finally, along with it are the release of the official promo photos of this figure on the Megahobby Station. It's the first time that we saw the fully painted prototype. And MegaHouse didn't disappoint.

The Hyena Springs Into Action

The Hyena Springs Into Action

I actually thought that there isn't any POP preorder for the month of April coz the announcement from Megahobby Station was a bit delayed for some reason. Well now here it is, our April POP preorder, POP Sailing Again - Hyena Bellamy. Preorders starts next week, Tuesday, 8th of April 2014 at 18:00 (JST).
