HW Japan (HWJ) e-Store Review V1.2 (Update)

Posted by Starboykb On 11th February 2009

HW Japan is a hobby supermarket online store from Japan based in Shizuoka. If you are looking for plastic model kits like Gundam, this store is definitely recommended for you because they offer up to 20% off the retail price for both Bandai and Tamiya products which I also can’t believe it when I can’t stop browsing the website. Other items like toys, kits and tools including the books and magazines also offer up to 6% discounts.....

Mobile Suit Gundam Ecole du Ciel

I really missed the old days reading manga (comic) books when I was student. In Brunei, it’s truly hard to find many locals running comic shops business. I’m not sure if the previous manga shop is still around or not. But I guess it might already close by now. Running manga business is not really that good and easy here.

First Look - All 10% off in Anime-Export.com

Posted by Starboykb On 7/04/2009 04:35:00 PM 0 Comments

According to what it advertises in the banner at Danny Choo website. Anime-Export.com (AE) is another unfamiliar online merchant from Japan. Just like the others, they also sell action dolls, diecast (action figures), figures and plastic kits.

The website has a really clean design layout and all anime title is well categories. I did quite enjoying browsing around as it was really fast until I found one problem. I have no idea how they managing the out of stock items on their website and because of that, there are not that much available or listed items I can find in the categories.

For example, like Revoltech Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. It suddenly missing in the list after I found last two days ago and it didn’t even mention anything about it. To me, this is a bad impression without knowing if it runs out of stock or are already discontinue. Of course, the only way we can do is contact them by email directly. I choose not too because I currently not buying anything yet on this store. However, if I couldn’t get it, I will just give up and look for something else. That’s my habits.

I’m also sorry to say is not everything we actually hope for that exists when it comes to all 10% off. I find it quite a misleading. I did indeed find most of the items do not have any discount at all. The most shocking on my finding is the Figma Hatsune Miku. You won’t believe it when it was selling at 3,980 Yen. The price is nearly double compare to current Hobby Search selling for 2,261 Yen. I don’t know if it was a mistake from the system or from the moderate.

Nonetheless, I recommend buyers to be extra alert when you buy things over there. Even though, they do offer very good prices for some of the figures and diecast Japanese toys. Just remember that, most of their price may be double like the above finding.

Hospital Nightmare

Posted by Starboykb On 7/02/2009 10:42:00 PM 2 Comments

This morning, I went to the government hospital in KB to get my blood suck. I already reach 27 years this year, so it’s time to get myself check up. No matter how old are you, it would be wise to go for health check once every two or three years even you are very healthy. If you had money, i recommend you should go to Jerudong for full body check up. The government hospital doctors these days are now unreliable and they give a lot of excuse saying this and that until you slap their face with the proof of the result from other hospital, then they will start shutting up and take seriously on your case. I find it very unacceptable seeing this kind of doctor’s behaviors nowadays.

Why do I have to be so rude? I was pissed by one of the doctors over there few days ago when I went to hospital to made appointment for health check. My request nearly got rejected and giving me a lot of rubbish excuse that I am young, there’s not necessary for me to do check up. What the fuck it got to do with my age anyway? How dare this doctor bringing my age for an excuse trying to getting rid of me like that?

This same happen back last four or five years ago, whenever I said I want to do a health check, the doctor simply reject straight away. Sooner or later, one day we are going to see more youth die in Brunei because of such way of thinking.

I don’t really mind if they just mention to me the current hospital here does not have the equipments to do a full health check up. I only wish at least to hear the doctors can offer another option for basic health check that available or can be done in KB rather than just kicking me (other patients) away.

Never mind about that, it was a good lesson for me not to put my trust on the government hospital. Next time I won’t request any health check anymore because I will die early going over there listening to nonsense. I am going to saved some of my money and just go to Jerudong hospital for full health check up better. I can’t imagine experience like that ever again and had to convince the doctor myself for some health check. Geezz…

Kingston VIP Appreciation Gift Arrived

Posted by Starboykb On 7/01/2009 07:18:00 PM 0 Comments

It really took quite a while from FedEx to send over my Kingston VIP gift after they asked for my IC number last week. I have no idea why it took so long in the custom. Who knows, probably someone who made a fortune comes up with an idea trying to send the pirated copy DVD or VCD using FedEx express to pass through the security or something.

Well, luckily they just send over by this morning. It was a good timing and now I can relax a bit putting more programs without worried much on the capacity problem.

For your information, the gift send from Kingston Technology Company is Kingston DataTraveler G2 (4GB) USB thumb drive. How do I get this free stuff? Well, just head over to Kingston Blog and join their members for free. Earn KB point by posting any of your (MUST) Kingston related questions, picture of the products you purchase in any local computer outlets and post reviews or news etc. The KB point you earn can use for exchange for free prizes. Nice isn’t?

Seed vs Astray – Two Gundam Announced (Update)

Posted by Starboykb On 7/01/2009 06:22:00 PM 0 Comments

This is going to be an interesting years for Gundam fan. One of the latest Bandai projects known as Gundam Seed Vs Astray announced last month at 48th Shizuoka Hobby Show 2009. If I was not mistaken about the source, Dengeki Hobby magazine reveal two of the seven secret Gundam to be release under High Grade 1/100 this year.

So far, no names were given to this two Gundam. Introducing Gale Strike Gundam and Hail Bluster Gundam (source from SRW Hot News) Judging by the looks, we (fans/modeler) know they are same Gundam Strike and Bluster except with different weapons and looks. Both of them going to be release on August, next month for 2,625 Yen each (inclusive of tax).

The color is a bit weird and I’m sure most fans don’t like it as it somewhat looks too fancy. Anyway, they are going to be on my pre-order list. (Cancel pre-order! Not a good month for me as I have to pay my car insurance, yikes!) Hope they reveal the names and the rest of the secret Gundam including the last Astray.
