It’s Kiki in a cup! found this image of Kiki from Hayao Miyazaki’s Kiki’s Delivery Service on Soshi’s Tachikomatic Days via Otaku.fm. incredible how someone can draw an image on coffee. almost feels like a shame to drink it. ^^;

 
Gadget Grocery is an online electronics store catering to the Philippine market. They sell Apple products, cellphones, digital cameras and a few windows-based laptops, cheaper than that in retail stores at the malls. Read more about them here or click on the image link below to check out their store.

I remember my past encounters with electronics shops in the Philippines. Problem with buying electronics in the Philippines is that everything is too darn expensive. The last time I tried to get a laptop locally from a mall, I calculated the price, and as it turned out, it would cost the same for me to buy a round trip ticket and fly off to Hongkong, buy the laptop there and fly back. Which I actually did. ^^
Check out the site for electronic goods if ever you are in the Manila area. What I couldn’t believe though was that they’re selling Ipods Touch similar to the online apple store price. ^^

Was thinking of skipping this MG release, but now that I’ve seen the Hobby Japan Images, I’m not so sure anymore. ^^; Am not too keen on having the Impulse Gundam, however looking at it here confirms that it has great joint articulation, good frame, and a lot of weapons. ^^ Darn it Bandai! Must resist temptation! ^^;

Btw additional news from Gunota

Bandai Hobby has a site up for the special Phase-Impulse MG Edition promo video. Listed staff for the vid is director Mitsuo Fukuda, producer Satoshi Shigeta, and character animator Hisashi Hirai. From May 24th through August 31, people who buy the MG Force Impulse can download it for free though it’s not clear if this offer extends outside Japan. Further details and a preview of the video will be up May 15th.

Wonder if the MG Force Impulse Gundam is really that big of a deal. I mean it’s not even the main gundam in the series. Then again if they have to do all these gimmicks to boost up sales, I guess that means the Force Impulse Gundam may not be one of everybody’s favorite gundam, and would not be sellable on its own.

edit: btw has anyone noticed the Strike Noir pack on the impulse’s back on the upper right image? Looks like the Impule is backward compatible to the Strike weapon systems. ^^;

once again news via Gunota and images via Ngee Khiong
the Strike Gundam Bazooka free on Toys”r”us Japan. sadly folks outside Japan wouldn’t probably have the chance to get this.

didn’t bother with the rest of the images, however if you would want to check it out, please blog on to Ngee Khiong for more. ^^

the next GFF, although looks like it still doesn’t have enough decals for a version Ka. ^^ is this on anyone’s must buy list?
