It's been not only a long time since I've posted here, but it has been a long time since I shared photos of my place. The last time you guys saw where I lived I was still living at home with my parents. It was back in 2012, so easily 4 years ago you saw my collection. Now you can see not only has my… [more]
So since I've moved into my new apartment I still hadn't set up my photography studio. Seems work has me busier than I thought I would ever be, however I took some time this past weekend to set up my studio so I could take some photos of my latest purchase, Alter's 1/8th Melty from Shining Hearts. Now… [more]

Pre-ordered this figure the moment she was released for pre-order. I needed for for multiple reasons, she's sexy/half naked, plus while she's not Sora she reminds me of Sora from Yosuga no Sora! But she's Yuki from Maid Yome and she's pretty amazing. The only issue is her adorable mouth really looks… [more]

I recently went on a trip to a magical place, The Container Store. Ok it's not really magical, but I happen to have discovered a love for organizing my home. I tend to prefer Ikea and Daiso but we went to The Container Store on a whim and I discovered this lovely storage container! I've been needing… [more]
Again Kotobukiya has me astounded in the amazing quality work they are producing as of late. This figure is again, another one that I passed up on and now regret. She’s sexy, in a great pose, I LOVE the character! Good thing she belongs to the boyfriend, i get to see her as much as i want when I go visit!
Love the test plugsuit, it’s so sexy, recently saw the Bluray of the movie, saw it in the theaters but the bluray was just amazing, Love Asuka in this plugsuit!
Fun perk? put a black light on her and parts of the suit glow!
You can see how thin Asuka is, you can see her ribs!
oh I see crack! How is it with figures it’s sexy but on real people it’s never sexy…
While their design has always been quite thin, it doesn’t always translate well to figures and I felt that they did an awesome job of keeping her small frame yet making her feel voluptuous .
Her face is also so cute and this figure reminds me so much of Gift 1/5 Yoko in the style of on her knees putting her hair up.
This figure honestly went completely under my radar, I didn’t even know she existed till my boyfriend brought her to the studio where we film AX Live. He had purchased her before we even met and when he asked me about her I didn’t know what figure he was talking about. Once I saw her in person I was just blown away by Kotobukiya’s work. As mentioned they are surprising me with this jump in Quality. It used to be quite difficult for me to recommend someone buy a Kotobukiya figure, but they have me eating my words, which is quite rare!
