MY LIFE in BRUNEI

What I Did A Past Few Days

Posted by Munir bin Julaihi on Thursday, April 22, 2010 at 4:41 PM

Hey, guys! Sorry for not being active, I was having problems with my internet recently. I couldn't reach my Blogger either, since my internet gone nuts a past few days. So anyway, you guys might be wondering what were I doing a past few days? Well, here's the story...

The 1st Day,

I was having a discuss with my friends about being a Blogger by starting a new way rather than just posting about figures. So I tell them that rather than figures, what if I post something else, like say, what am I doing right now, or even posting about what costume should I get and etc., etc. And they were like, "Now that'll be awesome. 'Cause that's what Bloggers do." We were talking and talking and we even laugh at it. And in the end, we're saying goodbyes to each other and we're headed home...

The 2nd Day,

I always went to internet café, but due to the room who's filled with people, I decided to go on a tour for a bit. We went to Hua Ho Mall just to walking around, doing nothing. I haven't been there, like, 2-3 years now. I'm starting to miss that place. We went there to buy some food, and Syafiq went to toilet room, and I don't where Farid gone, but we somehow manage to find him at the stairs where it's near to 2 toilets. We went up to 3rd Floor to find the AV shop and.... it's gone. There's nothing up there. What all we see is the salon and the boutique shop or something. But the AV is gone for good. Same goes to Giordano shop. I wonder why they're gone...

The 3rd - 6th Day,

Got nothing to do, just staying at home, playing L4D, learning making movies using 720p, making music, and then playing L4D again, learning making designs, and all over and over again.

The 7th Day,

This is where my internet's gettin' better, but I haven't make any post since I was kinda tired.

And that's my journal of the day and the post of the day, I hope you guys are enjoy reading the post, and I'll see you guys sooner or later in the next post. ;)

PLAY ARTS KAI presents: Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker Figures!

Posted by Munir bin Julaihi on Monday, April 12, 2010 at 3:57 AM

Yes, well, not only Medicom making MGS figures, but SQUARE ENIX also making MGS figures, too. And they look BETTER than the Medicom version.

The release date of this figures is unknown, but it'll be released soon. If you're a huge fan of MGS like me, I recommend you guys getting this figure. For right now, let's just say we'll wait till they announce the figure's release date. And here's the prototype images (and the half-finished product):-

This is the images of Naked Snake/Big Boss made by PLAY ARTS/SQUARE ENIX. I tell ya, it's pretty detailed rather than FF series. (no offense to FF fans. lol)

Of course, he's poseable, unlike the Medicom ones, except the 12" ones. Those are poseable.

More "poseabled" Snake.

And this is the half-finished product that I was talking about earlier. There's actually 2 types of figure to be made and that is:-

1.) Sneaking Snake

2.) Battle Snake (or something)

And that's all for today's post, I hope you guys are enjoy watching the images, and I'll see you guys sooner or later in the next post. Oh, and sorry for making a short post, btw. ;)

UPCOMING NEW FIGURES NEAR YOU...

Señor Fungo Review's "Paranormal Activity"

Posted by Munir bin Julaihi on Wednesday, April 7, 2010 at 7:48 PM

Some of you guys might know what this movie is, and some of you might've heard of it. Some people say that this movie's awesome, while I say it's not. It's just doesn't make any sense.

I mean, I thought this movie is just like one of those "paranormal activities" that we usually encountered before, but when I watch he ending, it's sucks, for real.

Well anyway, my friend's making another video review of "Paranormal Activities" and goes by the name "Señor Fungo". Yes, the guy who's also do a review on "QUARANTINE". Here's a bit image reference if you guys don't know who's Señor Fungo is:-

(And yes, I make this poster on my own just using a Photoshop.)

I guess you guys still don't know him...

Oh well, nevermind about that, let's just jump onto the review video, shall we? :)

And that's all for today's post, I hope you guys are enjoy watching the video review, and I'll see you guys in the next post. ;)

"Kitbashing" Sheva Alomar - Day 3/Final Day

Posted by Munir bin Julaihi on Tuesday, April 6, 2010 at 6:54 PM

Hey, guys! Sorry for a long absence, I just got myself busy setting something up at The Mall (expo, mind you) and it was kinda exhausted though.

And the expo will be start by tomorrow, so if you guys wanna see some toys, foods, medicines, etc., etc., you can go visit at The Mall by tomorrow, starting 10 AM. It's not a big expo, it's just an ordinary expo, but I can feel that there'll be a LOT of PEOPLE comin' to Mall starting by tomorrow! :)

Finally... The day has come... For her FINAL DAY of "KITBASHING".... ('cause I end up selling her to Taga , so there's no big deal.)

Tell you the truth, I actually have no mood to kitbash her, don't know why. Instead, I'd rather kitbashed either Wesker or Snake. Maybe because she got this rubber body of hers which can't pose EVEN A SINGLE ONE.

And here's the images, as usual:

Sheva in her final outfit.

Yeap, she wears a yellow hood jacket, same as those 2 guys, but sadly, the size are too big for her...

Sheva pointing a gun with a sideway. Gangsta style! xD

You could tell that she's holding the same M1911A1 pistol instead of the Glock 18 or 19 or whatever the name is.

A side-angled view.

And that's all for today's post, I hope you guys are enjoy watching her last day of "kitbashing", and I'll see you guys sooner or later in the next post. ;)

HOT TOYS Albert Wesker ~S. T. A. R. S. Version~ Video Reviews

Posted by Munir bin Julaihi on Tuesday, March 30, 2010 at 5:30 AM

Awesome Wesker, as usual. lol

I may not have the S. T. A. R. S. version (and in fact, I don't want to because it uses the same figure, same headsculpt, but different accessories) but for those of you who still haven't decided which one to choose, maybe this videos will help you:- (sorry, I only manage to get 2 vids)

HOT TOYS Albert Wesker ~S. T. A. R. S. Version~ by sniper3300

HOT TOYS Albert Wesker ~S. T. A. R. S. Version~ by boulder1998

I think that's all for the vids.

You guys must be asking which version you guys should get or what's my recommended version, 'cause my friend always asking me which version should he pick. For you guys; it's up to you. 'Cause it's your money, it's your choice, end of story. But if you're asking me which one's better, I'd say I go for...

~MIDNIGHT VERSION~

Why "Midnight version"? I tell you why.

As a kitbasher, you should know that they use the same figure and a same headsculpt but different clothes. It's just not that right, y'know. I mean, only a moron will buy the same figure with different clothes. But for a hardcore 1/6 collector like John , Ike , Kaisan , K or any 1/6 collector, they don't mind buying the same figure 'cause they wanna complete their collection. But seriously, there's NO WAY I'm gonna another Wesker. That's just stupid...

Well of course, unless if there's someone willing to sell the loose S. T. A. R. S. costume and some accessories, I WILL buy 'em, so that Wesker can get another costume, meaning 3 altogether (3 = Midnight, S. T. A. R. S. and my own custom version).

And that's all for today's post, I hope you guys are enjoy watching the video reviews and I'll see you guys sooner or later. ;)

Oh yeah, in the next post, there will be NO "Kitbashing" Sheva Alomar but instead, it will be replaced by Naked Snake with his new camo. I'm still thinking which costume she would wear for the next one. :)

"Kitbashing" Sheva Alomar - Day 2

Posted by Munir bin Julaihi on Monday, March 29, 2010 at 10:27 AM

Tell you something; this takes me in about 2 days just to make one post. Can't you believe that?!

So, it's her day again, and it is a day for another kitbashing! Yay! lol

This took me a while to remove all the clothes and the accessories, same as the "Jason Voorhees" post, 'cause the belt seems a bit tight, so it just took some time to put it back on. Now that everything's good and everything's fit, it's time to show you the images:-

Well, yes, of course, she wears the same jacket as the "Jason Voorhees" one, but she wearing a different outfit which I'll show it to you later.

As you can see, she wears a soldier outfit that almost resemble like Wesker's, but it's different.

Different angle view.

Different position, closer-angle view.

Sheva hiding behind the wall.

Hmm... I wonder what "tactic" is she going to kill Wesker this time?

Sheva posing. Btw, the jacket's are half-open so that you can see what kind of camo she wears.

Bottom-left angle view.

Bottom-right angle view.

Closer view. Wow... She's beautiful... xP

And that's for the jacket. Now, let's take a look at the uniform.

This is Sheva, along with her accessories including the headset. She wears a "Tiger Stripe" camo, which it's included in MGS3, but NOT IN RESIDENT EVIL 5. In the game, she only has 4 versions;

1.) B. S. A. A. version

2.) Clubbin' Version

3.) Tribal Version

and 4.) Folklore Version

But you wouldn't never see her in this "Soldier" version. lol

Closer view.

Right-angled view.

Left-side view. I did mentioned about the headset, right?

You can see that she carries LOTS of STUFF like Naked Snake did, but she's not carrying any pouches with her. Maybe soon...

So, as I was saying about the headset, I put the "communicator" onto her holster...

...and I put the radio into the pouch and I put the radio pouch onto her belt. A new belt, not the brown one.

And for the accessories, she only carries the Scorpion mag on her left pocket.

For weapons, she carries Scorpion, M1911, her knife...

...a short Machete look-a-like...

...and a Beretta.

Sheva withdraws her knife and her gun at the same time.

Hmm... Something's not quite right... Is it just me? Or... does it?

I feel like I'm remembered something...

How should I explain this...?

More like a... déja vú ...

Bottom-left angle view.

And that's all for today's post, I hope you guys are enjoy watching the images as much as I am, and stay tuned for the next "kitbashing of Sheva Alomar. ;)

"Kitbashing" Sheva Alomar - Day 1

Posted by Munir bin Julaihi on Saturday, March 27, 2010 at 2:48 AM

Here it is... Kitbashing Sheva Alomar... Her first day being kitbashed. lol

After I got myself HOT TOYS Sheva Alomar a few days ago, I was wondering to kitbashed Sheva into someone else.

Then last night, I watched one of my favorite horror movies, "Friday the 13th" where Jason would 'LOVE' to chase people and slice 'em up like some sort of... meat. Mmmm~~~ meat...

Man, I fell like I wanna eat 2 large Pepperoni pizzas everytime Jason slicing people like nothing. (even though it's gross to watch them...)

Here's the images of Sheva Alomar, cosplaying as Jason Voorhees:-

Sheva using the jacket that similars to Jason's and wears the hockey mask. Oh, and don't ask me where I get that awesome hockey mask. It's VERY LIMITED in Brunei.

Different angle view.

Sheva's looking at you. Ooooh.... Scary... o.O

If you guys are wondering what's underneath the jacket, here it is:-

She wears the same belt and holsters, just that I add another belt and another knife that looks like machete but a bit short.

I placed the knife on her left (right if you see it in front) belt, almost exact same position as Jason.

Oh yeah, I haven't put her knife into her sheath yet. Maybe sooner... or later.

She wears the same boots, as always. The truth is, I really don't like these BIO 5 figures. Why? 'Cause they have NO FEET when I removing the shoes. NO FEET AT ALL. But thank goodness that they made a TrueType figures which that includes a COMPLETE set of hands and feets. I'll buy them later after my mom's cool down 100%.
