Mar Purchase (2) - Switch Morphin (Red) Samurai Ranger, Gashapon Astro Switch - Kiva & Cosmic, Candy Toy Ultra Seven Set, Gashapon Gaia Memories HK Vol 1
Power Ranger Samurai - Switch Morphin (Red) Ranger
Bought in OG PP, since it costs only SGD $7, instead of its usual price of $29.95... Cheap... and if I am not wrong, this is actually an old gimmick in Power Rangers figurine toys...
Gashapon Astro Switch - Kiva, Cosmic Switch
Then went over to CSC and bought some more stuff, all from 1 same shop... The Kiva switch is still ok, but the Cosmic Switch did not have the big head attachment that says the cosmic state henshin words, so it just makes the Fourze Driver produce some simple sounds... luckily it has light... hmmm... maybe I will wait for my sound-recorder IC chip to come and see if can make a big head attachment for it... Oh, Kiva one cost $6, and Cosmic Switch is $10...
Candy Toy Ultra Seven Set - #1 Ultra Seven, #2 Ultra Eye & Monster Capsules, #3 Videosceiver, #4 Ultragun, #5 Eye Slugger & Zero Twin Sword
My 2nd time buying this set actually, the first being bought them for my little nephew, who virtually has "destroyed" (lost somewhere in his home, hahaha...) them... So is this set for him? Nope! Its for me!!! Hahaha... Wanted the Ultra Seven figurine to display alongside the rough-face Ultraman, and also keeping the transformation devices from my little nephew to display later, since he is not into Ultraman now... This set cost $30, after a $2 discount by the shop boss...
Gashapon Gaia (Sound) Memories HK Vol 1 - Double, Kuuga, Eternal, (T2) Joker
Yesssss!!!!!!!!! Now I can have the T2 Joker memory!!!! ...what, you say no light?... Nevermind, my 3mm purple LED is on its way from China (actually not yet confirmed order, hahaha...)... No pre-henshin music nor Maximum driver sound? Nah, I don't really care, although I may try to see if can fit a sound-IC chip inside it, to have some extra sound... In fact, have ordered LEDs to put inside... Hope the processes go smoothly... This set also cost $30, after the $2 discount by the shop boss...
Edit:
WTH!!!!! WTH!!!!! The buttons are so stiff when the 2 parts are joined together, it is impossible for my Lost Driver to activate the sound... Tried to keep pushing the buttons, hopefully can loosen the rubber spring piece inside, but failed ... Damn, even after I tried to apply a layer of glue to "heighten" the black tab in the driver's main buckle (this is the piece that pushes the transparent plastic mechanism to in turn push the Gaiga Memory's button to make the sounds), it still doesn't work... I gave up and decide to wait for my small mini touch switches (to arrive from China) so as to install them directly below the button in the Gaia Memory... sigh... more work...

Japanese Toy Fair @ Takashimaya B1 2013
Went to the Japanese Toy Fair today, kind of disappointed over the super high price for the "new" Kamen Rider W toys... Shall wait for the crazy toy sales... Relatively high price even for the Gokaiger toys too... Maybe will ask my brother to get some of the stuff for little nephew when they go to Taiwan...
Gokaiger toys on display... Strange that they did not display the Gokai Gun... Anyway, heard the Bandai-asia version of the DX Henshin Keitai Mobilate has the body of the original Mobilate but the sounds of the re-issue Mobilate (the one with AkaRed key)...
Akibaranger's Itasha Robo!!!!...
Kamen Rider W toys on display... No DX Skull Magnum nor DX Lost Driver... Wonder if they will release the Gaia Memories (candy toy or gashapon ones)... Super expensive, even with the discounted price...
Wait a minute... Why is the DX Power Dizer (of KR Fourze series) here???
More KR figurines...
More toys like Ultraman figurines, transformers, etc etc are also available... Poor Astrotrain, badly transformed chest piece....
Bought a bag of gashapon toys at the 1-Bag-$10 booth... Counted about 22 gashapons in total, about 9 KR Fourze Astroswitches, 1 ranger key, some figurines, watches, etc... so average about $0.46 per capsule, not too bad at all...
Also bought 2 Hello Kitty soft-toys for little niece, at $14.90 for 2 pieces...

Mar Purchase (1) - DX NS Magphone

"さあ、お前の罪を数えろ... (Now, count up your sins...) "
This is why I bought the super expensive DX Skull Magnum and subsequently the DX Lost Driver... all because of a cheapo toy white fedora I saw earlier... and bought it ($4) only yesterday... hahaha....
