Event Journal by Akiba Hobby, Jouji Risosu Fusoku, Moeyo!, & Tenra Blog; Updates from Griffon & Kotobukiya; & more

Well, that's it for World Hobby Festival. World Hobby Festival Ariake 18 Final was held last week, and as the name says, it's the final one. I guess increased competition, especially from Hobby Complex, gave World Hobby Festival a Subaru-style Divine Buster right where it hurts. Maybe the organizers can move World Hobby Festival to North America? Hey, I can dream, can't I? ^_^

Don't you wish you lived in Japan? They not only get to go to events like World Hobby Festival Kobe 28 Final, but they also get to go to multi-storey retailers like Asobit Chara City, Gamers, Mandarake Complex, and Softmap Amusement Store that all have an entire floor dedicated to figures. Luckily, overseas collectors like me have access to the Internet or else we'll be completely left out in the dark. ^_^;

Updates from Max Factory; Exhibit Pictures by Akiba Hobby; Reviews by Figure Jouhou Blog & foo-bar-baz

I thought I should update everyone about my "review" section. No, I haven't abandoned it. ^_^ I've been trying to set up a DIY photo studio, but it's still a work-in-process. Some of my test shots look amateurish, so I'm currently fiddling around with the backdrop, lighting, camera settings, etc. Hopefully, I can get it all set up soon.

Anime Expo 2008; Updates from Alter, Good Smile, Griffon, Kurushima, & Toy'sworks; Reviews by foo-bar-baz

Well, I finally bought my badge and accommodation/flight to attend Anime Expo 2008. It won't be the same as hobby-based Wonder Festival, but it's the closest available in North America. ^_^; I'm a huge anime fan too, so I'm looking forward to it.
