Went back to STGCC on day 2 not to look at cosplayers or shop for more toys, but to meet up with some local readers and avid Nendoroid and Figma collectors. Had a great time playing with their little daughters and just talking about anything and everything under the sun.
My little kittehs were immediately attacked by a very hungry Yako. Apparently her owner neglected her lunch? She needs to eat more to catch up with Yoko in terms of development and she isn’t wasting any opportunity!
The little ones had some costume exchanges. Little puchi Kyouka looks gorgeous don’t you think so?
Shana found her tsudere partner. Same facial expression, same hand pose, same cloak. They probably were sister in their previous life. Tempted to get a Louise now!
Drossel reveals her true form to me at last. <3
Something looks really odd here!
A showdown!
Have they made up?
A common enemy unites them.
From left to right:
Domo-kun, Domo-chan, Mono-kun
Kagami: Say byebye kyouka.
Kyouka: Bai bai!
Very happy to have met up with comrades Dcal, zh3us, JJ and Maverick. As a hobbyist in Nendoroid collection, it feels great that there are people out there who share the same passion as what you love. I high recommend people who share the same passion and hobbies to meet up every once in a while as you will learn lots of things from each other and gatherings such as this keeps you going as you know that you are (not) alone. ^^
Hope you enjoyed the pictures and please visit the other comrades blog for their own pictures, we all took each other’s daughters for pictures and I”ve got to say some of them really have crazily creative poses! Hopefully I’ll get to meet up with more comrades who love Figmas and Nendoroids as much as we do!

< ![CDATA[Looks like a fun meetup and quite a few of you attended? How many of you were there?]]>
< ![CDATA[LOL at the first picture! I've been missing out on some great Nendoroids because everyone's been buying them. That's what I get for not preordering. Still...I'm getting Ryougi Shiki no matter what and I'll continue to expand my regular Nendoroid collection.
That meet looks like it was fun. There should be a Nendoroid/Figma photoshoot at cons along with the regular cosplay ones!]]>

< ![CDATA[The ones on the floor are cloth provided by comrade Dcal. Other comrades also used the colored patterned paper provided by her for photo backgrounds. Did not use the paper for my shots though.]]>
< ![CDATA[All who love Nendoroids and Figmas are welcome if we are meeting up again on AFA!]]>
< ![CDATA[Most probably we will.]]>
< ![CDATA[The more the merrier! Comrade Dcal would most likely have a huge message plastered over her blog when the details of the gathering are finalised. Visit her burogu @ http://berribunzstudio.wordpress.com/ ]]>
< ![CDATA[Seems like there will be a lot of people meeting up!]]>
