I just adore Tatty Teddy ~
Dunno if you have it in you country, but over here we have a company called Me To You who make a series of bears, cards, ornaments, statuettes and other stuff with the character Tatty Teddy He is a grey bear with a blue nose. I suggest you read his story, it’s not very long but is a really sweet one ^^
My fiance very kindly brought this for me as a post Christmas present.
Testing, testing...
My dear sweet fiance got me the lurvely Hatsune Miku figma for Christmas. She is very nice and very cute although I don’t like her alternative face (the teeth stick out too much)
I have found that Miku is very photogenic. The camera loves her, as do I. Hopefully you’ll love her too. After all, everyone loves Miku right?
Made by Max Factory and still availible in most figure shops at the moment, she always sells out fast though so get her fast or she’ll be going, going, GONE before you can even blink.
I love fangs on anime girls ~
I consider myself a very lucky lady as I received this figure as a Christmas from my brother. I love her a lot and she was a very pleasant surprise.
She is Noumi Kudryavka from Little Busters. She is 1/8 scale and stands at around 7 1/2 inches tall. She was produced by Toys Works and released in Late April, 2008 however she is now discontinued. Some international importers may still have her, but Hobby Search is listed as long sold out. Overall she is a very nice figure, he pose is dynamic, her face is cute, the painting is very good with nice shadowing details and no bad seam lines. She’s my first Toys Works figure but I must say I am pleased with the quality, if I saw another figure of theirs I liked, I wouldn’t hesitate to buy it. Also she screws into her display base and she is very sturdy.
I named him Hideki.
Today I wanted to show off some old pics of my sweet little YO SD, Hideki. Hideki is the personal name I gave to the doll, his company name from Volks is Kuuta and he is the 2nd release version.
He was originally released during the Dollpas held November/December 2007. YO SD by Volks are small dolls which are supposed resemble small children, but many people see them as ‘chibi’ dolls. Sadly all YO SD Dolls are limited editions so they can be pricey although most aren’t hard to obtain.
She's better then I imagined.
Finally, pics of Volks Dollfie Dream Dynamite Escalayer. She is VERY cute, I would love to get my grabby little paws on her.
I love her big eyes and open smile, first time Volks have done a dollfie dream with a smile like that
As noted previously, she will be sold at the Comic Market75 from the 28th-30th of December. She will retail at 60,900 yen.

Love love love this crazy face.
Yesterday my friend brought me the lovely cutie Rin Kagamine Nendoroid for Christmas. I got her early because we won’t see him now until after Christmas so he wanted to give them early rather then late.
She broke my Nendoroid virginity and I think now I may just be a bit addicted. Can’t wait to get my pre ordered Kaito nendo now, February 2009 seems so far away.
As expected from Goodsmile, the quality and sculpt of this figure is second to none.
Our Journey starts at Havant bus station.
Yesterday my fiance and I went out to Portsmouth for some last minute Christmas shopping and I was shopping for some new shoes. Since the German Christmas Market was in the city today, I decided to take some photo’s of my day.
Of course, this being England, our bus was delayed and running 20 minutes late. It’s quite common in England for busses and trains to be late unfortinatly.
Oh Volks you tease =/
Finally, we have new information about the Esclayer Dollfie Dream Dynamite, great. But wait, what’s this Volks? Why won’t you show us her head? Yeah, sad but true. Even though Volks have now put an information page up, they still haven’t shown us what her face mold is like. No signs of what her eyes, wig or dress is like either.
What we do now know, aside from this is that she will be sold at the Comic Market75 from the 28th-30th of December. She will retail at 60,900 yen.
There also appears be a dress set for sale which seems to be a school uniform type outfit from the series which will retail for 13,440 yen. That’s all the news I have for now, will update once I learn anything new about the elusive Esclayer DDD.
Fuko chan, always so cute.
In my family, Christmas is about close family and togetherness. We will have a proper Christmas dinner and spend the day together at home. Laughing, joking, reminiscing about days gone by. It’s always a cosy and heartwarming affair and it’s a shame when you go to sleep and the next day everything goes ‘back to normal’.
Of course, we still give and receive presents too. It’s not as important as the family aspect, but we still like it of course. This year though, I’m particularly excited. I am going to have figure overload this Christmas! It seems everyone has brought me figures, and my mum and nan gave me money to buy my own presents, so I brought figures with that too!
I’ll be getting 8 figures this Christmas, how cool is that. 4 are what I brought with my mums gift money, 1 is what I brought with my nan’s gift money and my brother, friend and fiance have all brought me a figure each to.
I’m going to have a lot of figure reviews to get through one Christmas is over.
The amount of time's I've been caught like this XD
I’m finally getting around to making myself a light box and I am very excited. Now I don’t mind getting down on my bum or my knees to take photo’s of my figures or dolls, much like the girl to the right is. The problem is though, England is cold, very cold and there comes a point where bruising your knees on the pebbled cement pathway in your garden to get a good shot becomes more troublesome then fun. Not to mention the pics will still be naff anyway because it’s always grey outside here. Indoor photo’s are even worse.
Time for a light box then. I already have the lamps, camera, tripod, backdrops and I’m picking up some daylight bulbs tomorrow. Good stuff. I’m excited to start experimenting with a new indoor setup and I can’t wait to start taking pics. Watch this space, better photos may be coming soon.
