First Ota-Shopping Trip

Posted by ミクミク [www] 

Yesterday I finally, finally decided to go to Mong Kok, Hong Kong with my friend to have a look at what goodies they had. Never expected official GSC imports!

So, running about the various shops as a giddy 5 year old, I came back with 3 things. >:D

1) Black Rock Shooter Nendoroid~!
2) Newtype (It was hard to choose because of my budget, I had nyantype as my alt to this)
3) G's Magazine

It's unfortunate I can't YETread japanese cause then I'd be able to read the article about some interview with Yoko and Aki about the new OP and ED of K-On. >_<

Some of my first BRS photos below, no particular set up, shot using my old Lumix and my lovely fluorescent desk light. :P

    Mong Kok = best shopping town in HK!

    Sadly, most of their hobby-related shops such as anime shops are open by afternoon, and not in the morning. I went there before lunch, so unfortunately, the shops were still closed. Had a plane to catch, so I wasn't able to return anymore. :(

      That is ridiculously disappointing. T_T Adding to your point, a lot of local Hong Kong shops open quite late (i.e. After lunch or just before), so the next time you come visit us or return to Hong Kong, make sure you plan a late night flight. :P

        Lesson learned! I was really exited when I saw how big the shops were... only to discover that they were closed. XD

    I heard that the BRS Nendo also comes with the OVA. Can anyone confirm this?

      Yep! I got my nendoroid BRS yesterday and it came with the DVD, this time the design is a photo of nendoroid BRS with the silly face (CHANxCO's face). I was quite surprised and I think I bought Hobby Japan for nothing XD!

      Yep! 50 Minute DVD Bundled in the back panel of the box with an annoyingly hard to open paper case. :P
