    Mask Help!

    By Ektris,

    So I'm trying to work on more lists for my Ultimate Checklist.
     
    And that means masks.
     
    And other collectibles. The Krana one is nearly done, I just need Swert to upload more of the images to BS01 to finish it off... Kraata is going to be an absolute nightmare, though. Kanoka I don't know where to start with for images, but that one's not a priority.
     
    But what I'm working on right now is the Kanohi list. I just found good images for nearly all of the 2001 masks, and oddballs like the Rahi masks and other one-off masks in later years are just going to have to be set images if I can't find good stock ones. Misprints, too, of course.
     
    But then I get to the Kanohi Nuva. Now these we have some beautiful images already. Like this one. And I'd love to use those. If they came in all 42 colors for the Kanohi Nuva, but they don't.
     
    Alas, I don't have very good image editing software, otherwise I could just try and recolor them myself.
     
    That's why I'm coming to you guys, in the hopes that somebody with much more skill and equipment than I could help me out.
     
    So if you've got some free time and are interested, let me know.

    Hey Everypony!

    By Ektris,

    You want pranks on this April Fool's Day?
     
    Well I'm actually liking this one.
     
     





     
    Especially TakanuvaSpike. It's really weird how perfectly the images fit.

    Didn't really buy much this month, which is fine since I proooobably need to cut back on how much I spend.
     
    ...
     
    Like that'll ever happen.
     




     
    April should be an interesting month, though. On the hunt for more Transformers and have some pretty interesting (non-Kamen Rider) figures on the way.
     
    Might even buy something BIONICLE again soon. Who knows?

    I am seriously horrible at keeping this thing updated.
     
    So Wawa's selling off his old collection still and I'd say I'm interested in his Jaller & Gukko. But I'm pretty limited on space here. It'd basically have to sit in a drawer unassembled (unless it came assembled) until I could take it home. Then cram it somewhere until I buy new shelves because I have no room there.
     
    But he's got a great deal on it...
     
    So for those of you who have the duo - would you recommend them? They aren't at all high on my wants, but I would have every version of Jaller then.

    Phobia

    By Ektris,

    Suggest a good one and I might just change my name to it for the next 30 days. Just for the lulz, of course.
     
    Totally not anything about being seen as "cool" for mimicking the staff's clear satire of rather vocal proclamations of being afraid of them.
     
    Nope, totally don't want to be cool.

    Well, it's the end of the month. That means time for another picture of all the stuff I've SPENTSOMUCHONUGH lovingly purchased.
     
     
     



     
    Huh, hadn't even realized I was buying two black and red bat-themed characters. But hey, they are the most awesome of the bunch.

    Valentine's Day

    By Ektris,

    I'm actually quite enjoying sitting in my room all alone eating chocolate and cookies.
     
    Because although I may spend the day alone, that's not to say I am. So I didn't get to take her out to dinner or deliver the tulips she so loves in person... Again... We're still together and we're making it work and I don't think I've ever been happier than when I'm with her. I can always look forward to a time in the future when I'll be able to do those things. I don't see myself not loving her any time soon.
     
    So Happy Valentine's Day, everybody. So what if you're single on this one? Even those of us who aren't can have to spend the day alone. You always have the future to look forward to.

    Fall Of Cybertron

    By Ektris,

    I'm sure a lot of you have heard by now about the upcoming Transformers video game Fall of Cybertron. If not, go look up the teaser trailer - it's full of buckets of hype.
     
    Well. It's Transformers. There's going to be toys, of course. With its prequel, we only ever got 5 figures - all of which were great, but there were still so many more that would've made great toys...
     
    FoC is not going to disappoint here.
     
     
     




     
    We're getting a fully combinable Bruticus! Of individual bots we've only seen Swindle and Brawl (and I guess you can count Onslaught for the Bruticus torso/head), and they look great. If they're any indication, this is gonna be one huge bot. And I love that.
     
    My wallet won't, but I sure will.

    January Haul

    By Ektris,

    Sooo here's most of what I got this month:
     
     
     




     
    I say most because these are what I care about lol. I also got 4 more Transformers from the EZ Collection, but want to sell them, and there's still 4 figures I ordered this month that haven't arrived.
     
    Oh how Epic Barney loves my first ever misprint...

    A Page Of Madness

    By Ektris,

    Seriously one of the strangest things I have watched ever. Of all time. (Wikipedia article on it.)
     
    The lack of a benshi [narrator] made it hard to follow, but that just made it all the more creepy.
     
    Oh how I'm loving this Japanese film class haha.

    Google

    By Ektris,

    Google. They be viewing the blogs. A lot recently.
     

     
    I hope they look at mine. And while they are at it, offer me an intership. Because that'd be cool. B)
     
    ...
     
    Lol.

    About Skyrim...

    By Ektris,

    I just realized I was playing on Novice.
     
    The game really should have made some sort of note at the beginning about difficulty. Or if it did, I never even noticed and it should have been clearer.
     
    Pushed it up to Adept. Anyone think I should go higher?

    Year In Bionicle

    By Ektris,

    As annoying as it may be to type the BBCode, here I am on my phone trying to get this one up lol.
     
    I really, really tried to flesh out and complete my BIONICLE collection this year. And while I definitely did a toooon of looking around, my actual purchases weren't that many. But two of them were at the same time pretty substantial... Regardless, I'm pretty happy with everything I've gotten.

    Year In Figuarts

    By Ektris,

    Up next, all my Figuart purchases:
     
     
     




     
    Please ignore the other random things in the background (and that it's a little too bright; took this one in a hurry).
     
    Also related would be the pictures I took for that contest I mentioned yesterday.
     
     












     
    I want to do BIONICLE next, because I've made quite a lot purchases of those this year, but I do have to leave (in a hurry and all), but expect that one later tonight. It just miiiight be 2012 already in my timezone by the time I get to it haha.

    Bored

    By Ektris,
