About

For many years I'd wanted to collect anime figures, but never could muster up both the courage and greenback to actually go through with a purchase. They always seemed too expensive. But in May of 2008 I finally threw down some money and picked myself up a TAKI Corp Horo. Dear god, what a terrible peice of plastic that was. I love Horo, but I found it hard to love her after seeing what TAKI had done to her. I decided enough of that I have to try something different.

So I bought Alpha x Omega's C.C. figure, my faith in anime figures was restored. What a lovely figure she is, and with that in mind I rushed off and ordered me another Horo figure. This time from Cospa... Hey, I was learning, cut me some slack. Cospa ruined Horo's face pretty badly, decently produced figure, but that wasn't Horo, no not that face. It was far closer to a masker cosplaying as Horo than it was Horo's own face.

Not giving up a hobby that seemed so hit or miss, I threw down even more cash trying to get a decent looking Horo figure. This time, this time I got it right, I purchased Kotobukiya's Horo and aha! She was gorgeous, as Horo should be, I was ecstatic! It was at this junction that I hit the tipping point, and have since been unable to recover.

Purchasing faster and faster each month it seems like I'm never going to slow down. 5 figures in the first year, 39 in the next! 53 in 2010!! And 16 already in 2011 with a further 20 on pre-order! Will it ever stop?! Yo I don't know!

Whoa... Vanilla Ice moment there, I'm so sorry about that.

Mexico Trip Log: Summary
22 days ago - Aka (+)
As expected I had absolutely no time in Mexico to write a post and little time to do so once I arrived home as well. Worse than all that however, I brought Horo all the way down there and only managed to get a couple shots of her, with only one turning out worth a damn. Really really disappointing i

It's been a long time since I've written a figure review, seven months twenty-two days be precise. In this post I look at e2046's Gathering knock-off release of Horo, originally produced as a garage kit by Tsuru no Yakata.
Mexico Trip Log: Packed & Ready to Go

Well I'm packed and ready to go. Managed to find a place for the smallest Horo figure out there, Kotobukiya's. Would have been nice to bring Volks' with me on a trip again, but it was just too tight a fit. As I said on Twitter, they really should have made a Horo figma, would have made this situatio
