Ecole du Ciel has what it takes to interest me: obscurity value, curiosity value and hawt Mobile Suit-on-Mobile Suit action value. Plus the manga-ka is Mikimoto Haruhiko, who has an impressive set of character design credits including a number of Macrosses (and the animation direction for Do You Remember Love?) and War in the Pocket. And the first volume arrived in my letterbox recently, so here I am talking about it.

I tried to do outdoor photograph this time, with Strike Freedom Lightning Edition as the object. This Gundam is HUGE! I mean it's a Non-Grade 1/60 scale Gundam, so that's why it's huge. With its Dragoon (wings) wide open, it could reach 60 cm wide and 50cm high.Let me tell you about this Gundam first.Strike Freedom Gundam Lightning EditionNon-grade 1/60 scaleThe price is JPY 9500. I'm suggesting at my brother to buy a Master Grade Gundam, but he's insisting to buy this. So this is it, the body part itself is just like larger version of HG Gundam. But the harder part is the cable and light in the body. I don't really know about the detail, but i know my brother finished assembling this thing in 5 days straight (he's not in holiday).The photo session itself is a total waste i think. I did my figure photo session before in my home (i live with my grandma). I did this Gundam photoshoot in my real home (mom and dad's home, but still in the same city). It's a 3 stories house, and i did this shot on the rooftop.Background does matter, i guess. I'm trying to create photos like some other blogs did, but i guess the background i have doesn't fit at all. Plus cloudy day made the photo even worse. Getting blue and clear sky is crucial to get good photo.But that's not the worst part. As the Dragoons are wide open, it vulnerable to wind, and.... You guess it, it fell to roof behind it (look at the photo)."HOLY $%^& !!!"Gladly, we looked behind the wall, and it only fell off 30 cm. And he told me to stop right away. That's why i decided to do a indoor photo session for next week. With this huge object, i can't really think the paper will fit as the background, that's why i decided to do outdoor photoshoot at the first place.I already ordered Haruhi Metamo Sp Color ver 1.5, Shana Candy Bikini, and Nendoroid Haruhi-Yuki-Mikuru. Hopefully all of them will arrive before Sunday. That way i can photograph all of them, so look forward to it!Camera info:Canon EOS 400DCanon EF-S 18-55mm

I’m dead tired. I spent the whole of Friday and Saturday directing traffic for this silly parade thing and reached home at 1am for two consecutive nights, and I didn’t even get to see the parade. Sigh. Episode 19 is pretty damn boring and the only high point is the new insert song LOVE TODAY by [...]

Gundam World 2008 will be held in Amusement Park Greenland, Arao City, Kumamoto, Japan. Pretty funny that the amusement park itself is called Greenland. Just for a moment I nearly thought the event would be held in the country Greenland. The event will be featuring an exhibit devoted to Char Aznable and the premiere of a large [...]

Before getting started, JAXA’s Space Solar Power System reminds me more of SimCity 2000’s Microwave Power Station’s than some War To End All Wars But Won’t. After all, the ensuing widespread fire is infinitely more compelling than watching cannon fodder being mowed down like it’s another day at the office. This isn’t strictly about Gundam [...]

Ahh, Gundam. The debates never end on which series is great and which series are utter tripe unfit to crust the shoes of the speaker after a walk through a field on a rainy day. Where is the solidarity? It’s gone on hiatus somewhere, apparently. Unfortunately, and this is the case with most of anime, people [...]

If you’re looking for a series with a bunch of attractive people (particularly guys) designed by a prominent yaoi mangaka and don’t want to watch Gundam 00*, good news! Anime on DVD reports that Media Blasters has licensed Night Head Genesis, which is about a pair of brothers with psychic powers and, uh…some other things. …I [...]
