December Purchase (2) - DX Fang Memory (2nd Buy), Ben 10 Omnitrix Touch, Jenny Dolls

Went to the Sheng Tai Branded Toys Christmas Sales today again... True enough to it's poster's claim, it has "new toys" added... Let me recall... Power Rangers Samurai Battle Gear Twin Pack ($?), DX Decadriver ($18), LRS KR Agito Belt ($?), DX Ongekishin Raigo Ongekigen Retsurai (aka KR Todoroki Guitar weapon) ($8), Handy Series (non-DX) Ongekiko Kaentsuzumi Ongekibo Rekka (aka KR Hibiki Belt and Drumsticks)($?), etc etc...


DX Fang Memory (2nd Buy)
2nd time buying this item, this time is for my DX Lost Driver to showcase, hahahaha... Was very scared that it might turn out to be a Korean pronunciation, but luckily, it shouts "~Fang-gu~"... Hahaha...Cost $15...




Ben 10 Omnitrix Touch
Not sure what it does, but maybe will safe-keep it till my little nephew turns to like Ben 10... someday... Cost $12, but is also selling at $20 for 2...



Jenny Dolls
For my little niece... The pink box one cost $5, and the black box cost $9... cheap...



Free Gift: Ben 10 Nanomech Figurine
Its...its... a free gift...



Probably will be going there again, hopefully got "new toys" that I don't have but will want...

Mods - (2nd Time) DX Meitou Onsaken's Blade, Upcoming Mods Preview...

My little nephew's original DX Meitou Onsaken has a modded 'blade' but as it was made of a quite flimsy and thin plastic, it did not last long under the 'harsh' conditions of playing and keeping.... Was already damaged quite some time ago, but only today had the momentum to re-mod the blade...

This time I used another toy sword's blade which is slightly thicker and rigid, but the trade-off is that it is not exactly what the show's Meitou Onsaken's blade looks like... However, since durability is the main consideration here, I don't really bother about this point... Still looks better than the original DX Meitou Onsa'dagger'...


The tip of the blade connector is damaged, and the broken pieces lost, so I had to drill a through-hole next to the tip and use a cable-tie to secure the blade connector to clamp the blade well... Not quite visible, so lucky...


A comparison of the 2 DX Meitou Onsakens' modded blades... the top is new blade mod, below is my old blade mod... Although my old blade mod is flimsier, it actually looks more show accurate than the new blade mod (which I think is a little too broad, and tip of blade is too curved...)


The new blade mod is also thicker too especially at the top of the blade...



Some upcoming mods, incomplete so far... Hopefully will be soon... missing materials to continue, hahaha...

"The same! Shin..." Why must they always say "the same"??? Cannot be different meh? No creativity, unlike Akibarangers' roll call speech, hahahahaha... Have to try spray paint the 2 blade parts, and also make a slightly longer handle to cover over this short one...


"~Aka-i aka-i, aka-i kamen no vee su-lee~..." I know the words are not spelt this way, just fooling around, hahaha... Belt strap is finally done... Now only left to make the "V" and "3" patterns to paste on the buckle front, and also a make battery cover since I lost the original one...

December Purchase (1) - KO (Remolded & Resized) Ninja Storm / Hurricanger : Ninja Sword / Hayatemaru

Bought this at a Mama shop in the market today...at SGD $14.10 after a discount of $0.80... hahaha... Actually I only wanted the weapon, hahaha...



The KO Ninja Sword / Hayatemaru, from Power Rangers Ninja Storm / Hurricangers series... Of course, this is highly remolded (eg. sword handle, hilt, etc) and probably re-sized, and super simplified such that the molding and quantity of parts can be kept at a minimum...



Some of the features, like the swiveling gun-handle and especially the clip to hold the blade in the sheathe, are retained, making it a still acceptable (by me of course) KO PR/Sentai weapon for collection... Length of the sword is about 33.5cm from top of handle to tip of blade...





The mold of this toy seem to be the mirror-image of the original one... Has new molded details too... Notice this mold still retains the belt clip feature, nice ...

November Purchase (6) - DX Grip Phone, KO DX Titan Sword, Other Toys for Nephew and Niece, DX Moya Moya Z-Cune

Bought the small Winnie the Pooh Bear soft toy, Barbie Kitchen Set and Princess Accessories Set at Takashimaya today, the rest are from Taobao.com which were delivered in the late evening...


DX Grip Phone
Did considered NOT to buy the DX Grip Phone as I had sort of decided not to buy Sentai morphers after getting the DX Shodophone... but this is too cheap to be missed, and also I had gotten the DX MagiLamp too, so couldn't resist and bought 2: 1 for my little nephew and the other for me... Cost approximately $9.30 SGD each...




KO DX Titan Sword
Its a KO, but it is almost identical to the real one (I think, based on what I've seen on Youtube...). Some similarities include the plastic mould used look the same (though not sure if size is 100% same, but it looks big enough as a DX!), the stickers are gold-reflective and the 'words' are same, blade-shoot-out function is retained with the same activation button, primary colours are still purple and golden-yellowish, extended blade edge has transparent plastics... The differences I thought are: no spinning disc nor (friction) sound, no chrome parts... Plastic quality is slightly above average (not the very brittle plastics type)In short, it is an excellent piece of KO!!!!! Cost approximately $8.85 (This is after the Taobao agent repack this toy and discard the big KO Ultraman toy that comes with it...)




Transformable Pokeball-Pokemon Soft Toy
Hee, so cute... actually I bought 2 of these and also 2 more (Raichu and a pink monster I forgotten the name) so that my little nephew and niece will have 2 Pokemons to battle with, hahaha...




Barbie Kitchen Breakfast Role-Play Set
Initially wanted to buy the 2 storey Barbie doll house at the toy fair at Takashimaya B2... but only 1 torn and tattered set left... Saw this at Level 4 and decided to buy it... Cost $49.90... Damn, now then thought if Toys R Us has, then I could have bought it with vouchers... sigh...



Disney Princess Accessories Set
For my little niece to dress up as a little princess, hahaha.... Hope she will like it... Cost $29.90....



Mini Winnie the Pooh Bear Soft Toy
Cost $3.90 per piece, and $10 for 3 pieces...



DX Moya Moya Z-Cune
Really no idea why I bought this... Must be the crazy low price (170 RMB plus 8 RMB domestic shipping)... But with the big box, the shipping fee (to Singapore) adds up a huge sum... Cost approximately $52.70... Nevermind, now need to find a proper place in the display cabinet to showcase this... A bit worried as when I tried to convert to the gun mode, the 2 body halves does not fit together but leaves a small gap... May need to read the instructions...

November Purchase (5) - DX Rocket Module, DX Stag Memory, Battle Pokescan, Minnie Mouse DrinksVending Machine, Mini Hello Kitty Soft Toy

Bought these at the Branded Toys Christmas Sales at Eunos Warehouse Complex...

DX Rocket Module from KR Fourze is selling at $25, way way lower than the (approx.) $55 in CSC...


Bought 2 DX Stag Memories (1 form my little nephew, the other for me) at $18 each... cheap... DX Xtreme Memory is also at this price, sigh... should have waited... Also saw the DX Astro Switch Kaban at $25...


However, I noticed the colours of the boxes differ sightly... Not sure if there is any thing wrong; have not checked yet... Hope nothing bad...


Edit: Bad... The sound memory itself is KOREA VERSION!!!!!! Arrrrggghhhh..... and the pronunciation is in KOREAN!!!!!! "S~t~e~a~k~!!!" it seems to say... sigh.... Bandai Asia... Hmmm.... Why does Bandai Asia have everything in Japanese but the most crucial item is in Korean... Reminds me of my DX Engine Blade, only that my Engine memory has Japanese pronunciation despite having a Korean casing...



Not sure what this is, but at $10 each ($18 if buy 2 sets), can buy and try...


This little drinks vending machine is quite fun to play... Cost $25, for my little niece...


$3 only, but couldn't find more...


Free gift...
