Birthday of Ayanami 2015

It is March 30th once again, which means it's time to celebrate Ayanami Rei's birthday! This year also marks the year of the Second Impact! Thankfully it's not really happening or otherwise I wouldn't be alive to type this and 14 year old boys and girls will be forced to pilot giant robots...

So in lieu of piloting Eva Unit 00,  Rei gets to sleep in... On top of a dakimakura of herself.

Birthday of Ayanami 2014(ish)

It's time for Ayanami Rei's birthday again! March 30th is not only Ayanami Rei's birthday, but also her seiyuu's, Hayashibara Megumi! AND on top of that, it's also Kawasumi Ayako's birthday! Such a special day! :D Two of my favourite seiyuus' birthdays in one day.

Sadly, it's been a very depressing and hectic week for me, so I didn't have time to take any new photos of Rei. Good thing is I finally posted my photos from last year's Pacific Northwest Ball-Jointed Doll Expo (or PNWBJD Expo for short, which is still not that short).

Birthday of Ayanami 2013

Once again it's Rei's birthday! And sadly, this is only my second post of the year on this blog. I think I'm too involved on Tumblr... I will also be away on Rei's actual birthday. I'm actually at Sakura-Con in Seattle this year on Rei's birthday. I'll be wearing a Rei shirt of course :3 Anyway... I haven't gotten any new Rei things this year, so I'm only posting photos that I'm heavily backlogged on ^^; This has been delayed since last summer!

Christmas Doll Meet 2012

Better late than never... Here is the Christmas Doll Meet from December 15, 2012. I was under a lot of anxiety before and a little after this meet, so I didn't post this until now. I'm much better now, so I thought I should post before the year ends and the New Year's begin ^^;

I won't be writing much between photos and let you just enjoy them. I also posted these photos and more on my flickr.

Halloween Doll Meet 2012

Halloween is upon us! At least the doll meet was XD It's becoming an annual Halloween meet now where a lot of Vancouverites gather and get our dolls to dress up! There are over 50 photos, so I'm going to stay mostly quiet and just post them ^^;

Resin Peace

Two resin girls came before my Azone Saber arrived, but I never had the chance to introduce them to people properly. You've seen Rei before in a previous post, but I only took photos of her in nature and didn't provide much details. The one on the right is Ier from Souldoll... And I just realized her name is just Rei backwards... How coincidentally funny.

Saber the AmAzone 50

The return of the AmAzone Saber! This time she's multiplied her scale and became a 50 cm! Before I only had the original Saber in Azone 1/6 form and then a Saber Nero in DD form...

Anime Revolution 2012

Anime Revolution is a 3-day anime convention taking place in the Vancouver Convention Centre from August 17th to 19th. This is the first year for Anime Revolution. It features guests such as the English voice cast of Sailor Moon and Nakata Jouji.

Dolls and Beaches

It suddenly became very sunny in Vancouver in the beginning of May, so the group decided to have a meet on the beach on May 12th. Thankfully Flamebyrd brought an umbrella because dolls don't like the sun much ^^;

Taiga Hunting Sakura and Other Spring Days

It's been a busy spring. Taiga were sad I wasn't able to post the photos I took of her last month... It was quite a rainy April, so it was hard to take spring photos outside. This is one of those rare days where it didn't rain. Figured I'd take a walk around the neighbourhood.

Since I'm also behind on posting other photos, I thought I'd put them all together here ^^; And also on Flickr!

Obitsu at Sakura Con 2012

When the president of your favourite doll company is invited to Sakura Con as a special guest, you tend to want to go... So I did. He is Obitsu Saburo, the President of Obitsu Company, a company that is 100% made in Japan! All the design and manufacturing are made in eastern Tokyo in Japan.

Early March Doll Meet

Okay, so one more doll meet photos I'll post before I get around to my figma comic! This one happened just a few hours ago before I posted it! Which is a rare occasion, since I usually wait til weeks before I post them recently XD

2012 Backlog: January Doll Meet

Not even the end of the year and I'm already backlogged... Laziness and sickness got the best of me... Anyway, there were 2 meets in January. The first one took place on January 14th in Richmond.

2011 Backlog Part 2: Point Roberts

I quite a bit of photos from Point Roberts that it warranted to have its own post, though backlogged that it is... So I bought these new shoes from eBay and to save some shipping, I sent it to a package receiving service in Point Roberts. It's the first time I'm using this service. It's also the first time I went without my family, though I wasn't by myself for this short trip. There are four points of interest in Point Roberts that had some views and good photo opportunities. So we took'em! Even though I only brought two Pureneemos, I sure took a lot of shots with them, lol. This trip took place on November 10th... The day before Skyrim came out ^^;;;

Early Halloween Doll Meet

On October 16th, I went to an early Halloween BJD Meet, which is on my working day... But using creative timing, I was able to attend with no problem. The aim was to get our dolls in costume, but I didn't really have one for Helen... So I got her swimsuit and apron for sukumizugi meido ^^; Well it works for some cultural festival, right?? There are so many dolls and photos that this is probably the only paragraph of text I'll have and I'll mostly say nothing else, lol. Lots of new dolls and people too! Unfortunately I didn't have much time to get to know everyone... Let's get to it! There are over 70 photos altogether!

Lynn Canyon Park Doll Adventure

There have been so many events and outing lately that I haven't got a chance to post them all immediately. Like this meet at Lynn Canyon Park happened two weeks ago ^^;;; I thought about just leaving it, but there would be very nice photos I won't be posting... So here are the late photos... Better late than never.

ReaperofLeaves Birthday Sleepover

This past Friday was reaperofleaves' birthday and she held a sleepover party at her place. It was a bit far from where I was, so I guess it made sense to have a sleepover ^^ It took about 30-40 minutes drive without any stopovers or if the GPS doesn't lose its battery power... We came 3 hours late from the appointed time but were still the first ones to arrive XD I drove Galamirix and MysticaGrey along.

Cos & Effect 2011

What do you expect when you see the event called "Cos & Effect"? I was only expecting a one-day cosplay only event. Apparently I was mistaken. It was almost like a full convention minus the guests. A mini-con if you prefer. I thought it'd be a small event so I wasn't expecting a lot of cosplays, but I was wrong again! There were lots and lots of cosplays, some that I couldn't immortalize in a photo ^^; There were also some panels and vendors and artist alley! And it was a two-day event. Since I underestimated it I didn't take a day off for Sunday from work to go there. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted on the one day that I did go... I did regret missing that Swimsuit Competition panel -_- Hoping to find videos or photos of that event soon ^_^

Oh and I also wore the Kyuubey shirt from J-List... I didn't think it would get that much attention ^^; And I thought there would be other people who'd wear that shirt XD

Doll Summer Pool Party!

With me by myself in the house for almost a month, I thought it was a good idea to have some fun at home, so why not have a piece of summer doll meat, eh? Err... Well meetup with everyone and their dolls, that is. What I didn't expect was 20+ people coming over ^^;;; I was only thinking that maybe only 10-15 people, lol. Clearly I underestimated an Actual Vancouver Doll Meet! Ah also with this meet I've prepared a kiddie pool I bought real cheap from Toys R Us. We had quite some fun with it too ^^

This meet took place on August 6th and there are a TON of photos! Over 70 photos in total... So um, I'll stop typing now except for little tidbits here and there...

Featherfall and Obitsu 11cm

A semi-completed group order from Featherfall prompted me to start working on my Nendoroid/Obitsu hybrid using the Obitsu 11cm body that I got from Anime Expo. So I'll start with the Obitsu body right after the jump. It's a naked Obitsu 11cm body, but no details really, so I don't know if you wanna call it NSFW :P Just a warning either way.
