March Purchase (3) - Shodo Candy Toy Masked Rider 1, DX Astro Switch Set 2, KO LEGO Superheroes

Had my usual weekly trip to Chinatown past Sunday and got a few items while at CSC... First is the Shodo Candy Toy Masked Rider 1 figurine, which is a very nice figurine, with quite a lot of good joints for articulation... It is almost like a mini S.H.Figuarts figure, with lost of "posability" options... Cost $8 after discount...




This is how it will be displayed on my shelf!!!



Also bought this DX Astro Switch Set 2, as I wanted to collect "Circle" astro switches for my DX Barizun Sword... Cost $5...



Finally haul will be the 4 KO LEGO Superheroes: Ant Man, Hawk Man, Green Arrow, and Martian Manhunter... Costs $10 (for the 4 boxes)... Special thanks to stall owner as he allows me to pick the Ant Man box which is the newer series one that costs 3 for $10, many thanks!!!!...

March Purchase (2) - DX Fourze Driver (2nd Buy), DX Meteor Driver (2nd Buy)

Went over to OG in Chinatown and could not resist the temptation... bought the DX Fourze Driver and DX Meteor Driver for the 2nd time... The price is too cheap to miss... I mean, only SGD19 for each piece!!!!! Super cheap.... Did regret buying my DX Meteor Driver and DX Meteor Galaxy too early... The DX Fourze Driver will replace my little nephew's super old, torn and tattered one... Still not sure what to do with the old one...


... and re-bought this DX Meteor Driver just to prove that I am just unfortunate to have gotten a faulty one in my previous purchase... Weird though, although this new one can spin normally (and about 4 seconds longer than my current one), the sounds seems to be a little slower... anyway, this is not a big issue, as I found out...


... the new one seem to have a lot of sloppy paint apps... took 3 of such pictures, which the pictures did not manage to bring out the ugliness, you have to look at the physical product to really understand how sloppy the paint app is... as if it is a QC reject that accidentally found its way back into the packing box... Anyway, will keep it for now, as not sure what to do with it too... hahahahaha.... Probably will give to my little nephew or keep it as a spare in case the current one dies again (somehow)... Was tempted to buy the DX Power Dizer but did not eventually as I don't have a good place to display it... Yes, every single KR Fourze items costs SGD19, except the normal 3-Switches pack cost $10 for 3 packs and the Super Rocket and Super Drill switches costs $9 each (or is it $7? Can't remember...)...


Legacy Saba Saber and Legacy Dragon Dagger Display

Bought 2 sword racks from Taobao.com to display my Legacy Saba Saber and Legacy Dragon Dagger... Need to trim one side of each stands as the concave space is too small to hold the handles sufficiently... Also hot-glued the stands to an ABS sheet for better stability as they will be placed high up on the book shelf... Nice...

March Purchase (1) - DX Barizun Sword

Bought this at the Toys R Us mini "toy fair" at Tampines Mall 1st floor... costs only SGD19, super cheap!!!! ... Nice buy, very happy, hahahaha.... in fact the DX Fourze Driver, DX Hee-Hackgun, DX Billy the Rod, DX Meteor Driver, DX Meteor Galaxy also costs only SGD19 each... (but think the KR Fourze weapons are low in stock)...



This comes with a free Astro Switch No.27, the Screw module... which is weird, as this is a Triangle switch which cannot be used by the DX Barizun Sword (it has a "O" slot)... Basically useless, unless you have a DX Fourze Driver... hahaha....



... and the inside of the box...
