Hatsune Miku Nendoroid part II

Here are all of the pieces that makes this Nendoroid edition of Hatsune Miku.


You can see the interchangeable body parts and facial expressions. Its a cool figure but one that sadly can't be played with as it is way too fragile… making this purchase a little disappointing.

Hatsune Miku Nendoroid

We got our very first Nendoroid… and it is of Hatsune Miku!


The Nendoroid series is a brand of plastic figures, 10 cm tall, created by the Japanese Good Smile Company in 2006. Nendoroid figures are usually based on the characters from anime, manga or video games and designed with a large head and smaller body to give them a cute appearance. Their faces and other body parts are exchangeable, giving them a range of different expressions and poses.

Fisher-Price Imaginext Ion Orbiter

The Fisher-Price Imaginext Ion Orbiter!

What a cool spaceship! Isaac wanted this one, so we got it since it was the last one left. We love the Imaginext series and our collection is a little insane! We have tons of figures, vehicles and playsets.

The spaceship is very cool. When pressing the button on the back, the cockpit actually spins. It also makes sounds and says phrases. It also fires two missiles. This is yet another superb Ion alien figure. It has an helmet.

Avengers Assemble

"Real Life" + Lego Guardians of the Galaxy

Isaac and I decided to take whatever action figures we wanted and play "real life". Real life as in both Isaac and I were action figures, and we were part of the story along with figures from Dungeon and Dragons, McFarlane's Monsters, Star Wars, G.I.Joe and countless others.

We had a great time!

Soon we will introduce to you who we are as action figures!



And here's upcoming Lego Guardians of the Galaxy sets!

Launch into battle against the Sakaaran’s Necrocraft in the awesome Starblaster and help Star-Lord to escape with the orb! Place the Nova officer in the cockpit and launch into the sky.

Minecraft action figures: The Enderman!

Enderman!

One of the coolest baddies from the video game. The figure is actually awesome! We love it.

An Enderman is a three-block-high humanoid neutral mob that spawns occasionally in the Overworld at light levels of 7 or less, and densely populates The End. Endermen will turn hostile when provoked. They are known for their spooky presentation, their unique abilities to pick up blocks and teleport, their vulnerability to water, and the odd noises they emit.

Minecraft action figures: The Creeper!

The Creeper!

I wasn't sure what to expect from Jazwares and their Minecraft collection but their Plants vs. Zombies series was great. Surprisingly, these Minecraft figures are cool too! There is lot of details and it actually looks like the character in the video game.

Creepers are common hostile mobs that use a suicide-style attack: They approach players and then explode, causing massive damage to players, entities, and blocks within a short radius.

You either love 'em or hate 'em!

Aliens are taking over!

Humanity's last hope have gathered on LV-426, the planet from the original Ridley Scott film which happens to be in our condo, to destroy once and for all the menacing Aliens.


Unfortunately for them, the Aliens have all teamed up in what should be one epic war.


Who will survive?!
