| My Wish List & Pre-orders!

| Overseas Otaku Buying Tips
Making online purchases/pre-orders especially for Jpop CDs and anime/game PVC figures have always been the best option for me (and many otakus who do not live in Japan). Listed below are my wish list, preorders and purchases from these reputable online companies. Your purchase via these links supports this site :)

 • YesAsia (Bought my Jpop CD/DVD here)
 • J-list (many 'weird' Japanese stuff)
 • HobbySearch (Comprehensive inventory
     but no free shipping and no shipping cost
     provided upon placing an order )
 • HLJ (very good alternative to HobbySearch)
 • E2046 (many figures & rules in resin kit)
 • Play-Asia (My #1 online shop)

More Evangelion love! Arrived a few days ago was 4 little boxes of Revoltech Miniature Evangelion series when I was in the midst of building and sticking decals onto my PG EVA-01. These little Revoltechs are the cheapest, highly articulated Evangelions money could buy and I have gotten them altogether with their accessories...

It's been quite a while since I last made my figurine photoshoot entry! So here goes... Based on Evangelion 2.0: You Can (Not) Advance, Revoltech Yamaguchi No.067 EVA TEST TYPE-01 New Movie Edition was out in mid-June 2009 but I was not aware of the release nor had the interest to buy any Revoltech until yesterday. The reason was...

How many of you actually backup your files periodically? Honestly, I am an extremely lazy person to burn or backup my files to CD/DVDs. In fact, I have never actually burned a single CD/DVD for backup purpose LOL! I buy hard disk drives, slap them in as slaves and manually copy important files to the new drive. Of course, a RAID 1 configuration would...

Like many otakus do, I spend big part of my time in front of my PC and I have been using MS Windows for many years until I got Fedora Linux installed very recently, just about 2 weeks ago so I'm a beginner when it comes to Linux. Today's web log is not otaku-related but to share with you fellow readers and otakus who enjoy computing...

While both terms "otaku" and "geek" may be closely related to each other, today's entry is focused towards the "geek" factor, featuring the upcoming high-end PDA phone, the HTC Touch HD! Specification of this sleek looking device leaked out last month and was announced officially at HTC's website later....

Year 2008, May 31st marks the day of my Canon EOS 450D purchase. I am totally a beginner when it comes to using a DSLR but after a few hours of self-learning, I think managed to shoot decent figure photos as below. Figma's Suzumiya Haruhi figurines were chosen as the subject...
