Maybe The Expo Was Just An Excuse To Shop

Hm, I believe we have been through this before but I have a shopping problem. I guess going to the Anime Expo where there was much stuff peddled was a bad idea for some one of my condition but luckily I was capped at £100. Doesn’t help me at all when October’s Expo comes around with my having an estimated £500 by then….

So the spoils. Again at any chance I get, I went for a bunch of manga. I found it strange actually that after looking in many places, this was the first time I was able to pick up something from the Shonen Jump line. Gladly I did find this as Vol 5 of both Busou Renkin and D.Gray-man are one of my favourites to still get. I would have gotten more Negima as well but alas I only saw a Vol. 14 and no 13 T____T

My best purchase, has to be the RX-93-V2 Hi-V Gundam. I was looking for the Wing Custom KA actually and was about to set my sights on something else until I saw this beauty on display going for £57. I am going to have so much fun putting this thing together being that this is the first Gundam I have bought in a long while… Expect some posts about it maybe…

My friend who I went with bought a heavy arms custom and the Noir Stirke. I was about to blow my manga money on getting the Noir Strike as well because of its sheer coolness but I resided to later on ordering it. That should come in about two weeks.

So yeah, enough of the conquests, onto thoughts of the actual Expo itself. I found it okay, but it really wasn’t that much for me except as a shopping excursion for all of the niche items I would ever want under one roof. About the only interesting thing was seeing some of the really good DDR players and the Cosplayers. A new experience for me, I actually had fun Cosplay-Spotting. Man, was there a lot of Jariya’s.

Well anyways, it was still an enjoyable excursion and was only a twenty minute walk from my house so I was able to quickly arrive back at a place to get started on my Gunpla XD Expect some posts soon, most probably on the gunpla as all of my attention is attuned to that at the moment, and I don’t think I could concentrate on anything else until it is finished.

But after getting back into action with a huge Master Grade Kit, this could take a while… with the Noir Strike afterwards and also probably a 1/100 scale H.M.S. Victory, I may not get off my modelling binge for a bit =P
