Asuka's day out

Posted by wasabi5858 

Took Asuka shopping at the Volks USA Store and took this opportunity to try out their new photo area. The new set is cool. They even have thrash bags and stuff to make the set more real. (and of course, I thought it was actual thrash and removed it and set it aside... ;/ duh )

After seeing their blog about it yesterday, I went and bought 2 bikes too for my DDs. I am glad because they bike is cooler than I expected after seeing it.

edit: fixed white balance for the indoor shots.

Some pics of Asuka in the new photo area.
Some pics of Asuka in the office complex right across the street.
My loot from Volks today. (jumping ahead, no SD in the bag.)

Thrash adds to the scene.

      The new photo setup is really fun. Lots of things going on. I should've take more pics from different angle. Didn't spend too much time in the cafe section.

    And Asuka looks awesome on the bike! That diorama is really well done. Lots of details there. And congrats on the loot! You really nabbed some cool stuff there!

      I am pretty sure I purchased the same one (off ebay) tho I may be totally off until I actually receive them > < (especially since it is noted to be 1/6 but 28inches or so long)
      Will definitely let you know once I can confirm it is right.

      A video someone else made.

        I have searched Ebay, Amazon and even the New Brite website. And I cannot find any of these. NB doesn't even list them on its website. Maybe they no longer make them? How much did one cost?

    Nice photos of your Asuka. That new photo area looks pretty neat. I'll have to check it out the next time I visit VOLKS.

      Hehe, while it is convenient, the temptation is great! While waiting for my items, they gave Asuka one of the $200 sofa to sit... it sure looks great and I had to keep telling myself "next time, next time!"...

    Great photos! A few were over-exposed though, no worries though. Thanks for sharing.

    Asuka is so cute! I can't wait to see pics of her on her own bike. I'm also jealous of your loot. I want that compilation book, but shipping to Canada from Volks is ridiculous!
