I don’t know why I go to the manga section at the bookstore…

Monday, December 20th, 2010 at 9:20 pm

…until today! Dun dun dun….

I went to Indigo today and I decided to do my usual routine:

Check out the graphic novel (read: comic book trade paperback) section and see if there were any hardcover books that I like that have made it to the cheaper paperback format. Then, for the ones that have, I rationalize that I could probably either DL it for free or that the story probably isn’t/won’t be as good as I think. And I don’t buy anything.

Then, before leaving, I check out the manga section. I glance at all the titles and, like always, realize:
1. All the titles that I would want to buy right now, I’m waiting for the box set/collector’s edition
2. Any new titles I might want to start, I should probably read online first to see if I like it. No way am I buying one manga (no pun intended) because I will, as usual, go buy the rest of the set. But if I’m going to buy the rest of the set, I might as well wait for a box set/collector’s edition.
(BTW, damn you Scott Pilgrim for coming out with a Box Set. Difference between my 6 volumes and the box set 6 volumes: 1 box and 1 poster. In no way worth spending $56. Alas, it’s a box set I’ll never own…Q_Q)

Anyways, so I’m in the manga section thinking: Again I visit this place, never finding anything worth pur—
And seriously just as I was thinking that, I saw this!

I was like “WTF IS THIS…Ohhh, I’ve heard of this, they make references to it in the Death Note Box Set”…I dunno, I was super surprised but I guess that’s my fault as I failed to do research on stuff. That always happens.

Anyways, I just posted this because I thought it was funny that I was just thinking
1. “I’m never gonna find anything worth pur–” and then I saw it
2. I’m planning to finish my (final) Dark Angel novel today and that means I’ll have this to read after :D

And then I may (or may not) read some Wicked novels and then I’m calling it quits for novel reading until I really find something I want to read. Reading novels can be fun but once I start a novel, I really focus a lot of time until I finish it. Like, I start a book and suddenly everything else becomes priority two. I don’t like that. It’s all about balance!

Anyways, off to read…60-70 pages left :) I’m a reading machine suddenly

/warrenbot points at novel words and then starts pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew. bzzt. READ ERROR. I/O FAILURE. ACCESS DENIED. SHUTDOWN. …. *

Wargreymon

Sunday, December 19th, 2010 at 6:11 pm

I got my D-Arts Wargreymon in the mail yesterday. It’s sweet. Even better is the future release of Omnimon and MetalGarurumon.

Now, when I was younger, I purchased a Wargreymon…which happens to be the same size as the D-Arts version I got so I thought I’d post a shot-by-shot comparison.

Click on the images for a larger one

The Crest of Courage!

You want a piece of me?

Terra Force!

Look at those blades. They look vicious.

Omnimon – Old toy. Note his epicness in idea but crappyiness in toy.
Seriously, combining the two most powerful digimon, Wargreymon and Metal Garurumon….making a digimon with an awesome gun AND and awesome sword…and a cape! I can’t wait til the D-Arts version of this comes out.

My Digimon toys…I don’t have many, I’m a sucker for quality, not quantity (in this case).

I can’t wait for the D-Arts Metal Garurumon either.

If they do well, maybe I’ll see an Angemon, Angewoman, and a Magna Angemon. The rest of the digimon are whatevs!

/fun to pull out my lightbox and do some shots….tho it looks like my camera is busted :'( it won’t focus upon zoom-in :(
