An Alien Life of Starboykb

The squad team member is one of the four released Grey Knights Brotherhood Terminators squad series. I am happy to say the quality of the paintwork is the same as Castellan Crowe and comes with a beautiful design. Not only that, you can feel the weight when holding the figure, it’s like the figure comes with a die-cast part.

    Never in my mind to receive double thigh parts in the DNA Design DK-27. The factory worker is good at packing the whole thing preventing me from noticing the problem. This set is hella expensive, it's not something I want to spend and ignore to get another one. I am now trying to source and get help from ShowZ in contacting a DNA Design rep to reproduce again because the Nemesis version is coming in March this year so there is a good chance they are re-releasing the upgrade version for it. Hopefully, there will be good news next week. I will be uploading the original review later.

This is an Ultramarines Primaris Captain wielding a master-crafted heavy bolt rifle and a power sword that comes with a sheath. The set only comes with a clock, and pairs of swappable hands. It’s a shame it doesn’t have the option to swap helmetless character heads because look a bit plain despite him being a captain. I may have to do mixing with other figures to upgrade his looks. Surprisingly, he is taller than the Librarian and comparable in size to Grey Knights Terminator.

This is the first champion character I wanted to collect from the Grey Knights wave 1 when I first saw it in the W40K: Chaos Gate – Daemon Hunters DLC. He has an awesome design quality and is beautifully painted. The awesome part about this set is you get the Black Blade of Antwyr which comes with a beautifully crafted effect part that you can optionally put together for display. His swappable head mod is also incredibly good and preferred over the helmet version.

Since there is no Nemesis version for Optimus Prime (Bumblebee Movie Ver.) available from the Transformers Studio Series, why not just get cheaper with high-quality paintwork and some die-cast parts from a knockoff toy for less than SGD 15.00? While the KO version is not near perfectly produced and has transformation issues in vehicle mode. Its robot mode is 95% accurate copies. You hardly find a difference between the original when displayed together.

The Ultramarines Primaris Librarian is the second wave released in 2022 which I asked the Game Workshop local dealer to help me purchase when it was put up on the official website. Good articulation (limited), is nicely painted and the quality is better than the Mcfarlane toys. Sadly, this figure comes with a few problems like loose shoulder joints and side armour plating easily popping off.

I have been eyeing this 3rd party MP size Classic Optimus Prime for a while and never knew about such a release until I search Aliexpress for some KO Transformers. There are positive reviews of this improved version and many are quite satisfied with the figure quality build. As a fan of the Classic series, I going to check out it myself since you still can get one for less than SGD 100.00 depending on where you source. I was able to get it from one of the local sellers who sold it to me for SGD 95.00, which is a reasonable price range for me after a few weeks of sourcing through the online stores. However, what I didn’t expect is how heavy the toy was packed inside despite the box looking small in my photo studio.

This is my first 4th Party KO Transformers that I wanted to get for a long time after seeing more and more fellow collectors displaying their Wei Jiang/Jinbao combiners at home. I simply couldn’t resist any longer so I decided to give NBK brand a try and check out the quality of the toys before jumping in for more.   Product Information: Brand: NBK TF Engineering 3349 Size: Voyager Version: Green (G1) Design Base: Copy version of Generation Toy GT-01 Gravity Builder My Rating: 7/10 Purchase Price: SGD 85.00 Market Price: Less than SGD 100.00 Other Version: NBK Yellow (G2) NBK Transparent Green Colorful (different combiner head and chest armour). Different Version: Omega Supreme (another cut-down and simple design)

Happy New Year and another new beginning day to start over. Last year was another stressful year and nonsense. Hopefully, this year will be better and can’t wait to clear all the remaining 7 months of the mafia bank loans. Travelling will not be priorities at the moment until my financial back to normal and stable. The year 2022 wasn’t good either for me when I lose the bonus payout completely. This affects me badly and has to extract backup money from my mom's savings to cover the losses at the moment. Once the bank loan clears, I can start to slowly pay back my mom's savings around September and keep some funds as a backup in case of emergency. My original plan is to pay using the bonus, but at the moment, nothing is certain about whether the current company going to pay me or not this year. If the same shit happens, well, time to plan for an exit. Of course, the main problem is also my obsession with toy collections. It’s not slowing down, instead, JoyToy X Warhammer 40K act...
