Souchaku Henshin

One of my most recent discoveries (about a month and a half ago) is a range of japanese action figures released by Bandai whose title translates as "Armour Transform." It mainly focuses on the Kamen Rider franchise by Toei (I won't go into any depth here because there are plenty of other sites that can do better than I can, try wikipedia.org)

Anyway, I've got quite a collection going and may put pictures up at some point. I've looked high and low for information about upcoming figures and I'm intrugued by the latest developments. The figures from Den-o (the new series) are complete with several more points of articulation including two for the waist and the ability to do that "c'm'ere" gesture from old japanese movies.Additionally there are now to be SH versions of Ryuki Survive and Knight Survive released, from what I can tell, in June. Roll on the rest of 2007!

Check back for pics of the ever-growing collection including most of the Ryuki lot, Faiz and Blade as well as Black and Black RX.

'Ello

Ok, this is my first blog. Yes, my first! Never tried one before and I thought I'd give it a go.

The reason for me setting my blog up was initially because I'm bored. Took a week off work to paint a wall, put up shelves and clear some boxes out of the garage. It's now Wednesday evening and my total efforts this week so far involve sleeping until noon, making meals, going to the shops this afternoon and creating a blog. Alright, it's entirely my fault I've not done anything aside from some disagreements over the colour of paint for the wall. That said, I'm out most of tomorrow on a trip to Liverpool (at my own leisure :D) so chances are come Monday morning I'll have a list of things to tell my friends at work that I told them I was doing that I haven't (except for the garage, that's the only item on the list that I didn't add myself)

Ah well, just see what the rest of the week brings. My account balance has gotten a boost due to today being payday, so the trip won't be entirely unproductive (I hope!)

See ya.
