enjoy:D

Now it's time for me to introduce the only robot in doko demo issyo line-up. Please meet: Suzuki.
Since doko demo issyo is dominated by cute animals, Suzuki seems to a bit lonely and attractive at same time. If every story gotta have a villain, probably it's his role. I like to set him up as the bad guy, chasing around the others with huge drill in both hands.
I don't really know the history of Suzuki, but it appears that he has some sort of musical taste...talk about combining the rough and the soft side of him I guess...
For this Photo Session, I try out a new background color which is red mahogany, turns out to be a pretty nice one, but i still prefer the conventional black or white. The red mahogany background adds a touch of darkness feels towards the object. It fits for some figures, but I don't really know how it would look like in capturing cute figures (such as Spawn and Chucky:D)
The square head of Suzuki can be turned in order to display different expression of him. It is far easier to change his face compare to the other Doko Demo Issyo that needs a snapping to cto do that (which sometimes is a pain in the armpit). The big square shape though, creates some difficulties to stand him up, it creates this unbalance proportion in him...but I have handled some revoltechs so it's not that much of a problem for me:D

Just recently I take some picture of my action figure. It's Revoltech's Tetsujin 28.
Tetsujin is a legend. Created by Mitsuteru Yokoyama in 1956, several TV adaptation has been made, including the US version called Gigantor. Tetsujin was also mentioned in Urasawa Naoki's 20th Century Boys, where the main character imitate tetsujin as his robot drawing in the year of 1960. Shows how Tetsujin gives much influence in the past as well as the present.
At first, Tetsujin was build for military purpose. Things happen, didn't really goes according to plan, then Tetsujin ends up as a civillian robot. The number "28" shows that the construction of the robot has failed 27 times, and finally completed in its 28 attempt. It is remote-controlled, three stories high, and piloted by Shotaro Kaneda.
I really like the classic feel of Tetsujin! its rounded shape, memorable nose, jetpack, simple, clean, and looks strong at the same time! it's eyes show determination, warmness, and kindness. You can call it a robot with a stereotype protagonist style, or you can also call it having all aspect that a hero should have!
As for the action figure, it range from statues to gasaphon, from static figures to movable ones, from more then 30 cm to less than 7. I myself, choose the ones come from revoltech. It is equipped with some changeable Tetsujin's hand, alternative head (one with yelow eye and the other with red), jetpack flame, torn-up elbow, and a stand base. Very photogenic but the shape makes it imbalance and hard to pose. I really like this action figure, from the scale 1 to 10 i'll give Tetsujin a 9.5 (pardon my subjectivity of course :D)

Another Doko Demo Issyo
He is more of a "Black Toro"
This is a Limited Edition Figure by the way :D
I really enjoy taking pictures of Kuro.
He is somehow more photogenic than me...haha!
Toro is one of my favorite figure!
He comes from the Revoltech line-ups!
Revoltech is a figure line-up coming from Kaiyodo Company. The fun part of revoltech is the moveable joint that gives us a wide range of pose for the figure. They come with lots of accesories, not so expensive price, and tons of characters! I myself have a lot of revoltech in my collection, and still thinking of adding some more.
For this Revoltech, his name is Inoue Toro! He is from the Doko Demo Issyo (DDI) series of Revoltech. It took me awhile to find out that he is a game character. I don't play the game since it's only available in japanese. It's basically the figure itself that attract me to buy it.
There are three changeable faces for Toro (kinda reminds me of Nendoroids). Each face really captures the expression and emotion of Toro. There are no other accessories included (maybe it's due to the fact that Toro is the first character from DDI) but we can use the other character's accessories.

This is my next attempt on taking pictures of my figures.
Still using the same camera, but now the background is my room's wall. I thought that a piece of paper would look too "clean" for this figures
.
The model for this session is Spawn: Wings of Redemption II. It's a statue from Todd McFarlane Toys. Todd McFarlane is an artist who invent and sculpt this product.
Todd McFarlane does not only make Spawn Statues though , he also make Dragon (it's very cool I think), video game characters and movie characters figure. There are also statue of an athlete (damn, this guy is all over the place..).
But personally, I think that Spawn is the coolest line-up from McFarlane...and perhaps I'm not the only one who feel that way, because Spawn is the best seller among the other.
Spawn is a comic book character. The author is McFarlane himself -why am I not surprised-. Usually, McfFrlane releases two series in a year. This one in the picture is coming from the Spawn Classic Series.
Spawn Classic Series is the re-issue of the previous Spawn Statues. This one is The Wings of Redemption II aka. WOR II. the predecessor is of course, -except if you're bloody dumb in math- The Wings of Redemption.
It only takes about two years to make this figure becomes rare and expensive. Similar case happen to the WOR, which right now is very expensive and hard to find.
So, the next time there is a new release, get it before it gets rare...but make sure you got the money first...

One of the things that I love to do is collecting figures.
I really think that this hobby comes in one package with photography, because I don't wanna end up acquiring figures today, and already forget about it in the next day...
So here is my first step on taking my hobby to the next level.
I start off with a very ordinary mini photo studio, perfect for the poor and amateur photographer wannabe. Using a Fujifilm Finepix E510, a large paper for a background, and a flashlight with tissue to soften the lightning...o, by the way, I use books instead of tripod, and use my hand to hold the light.
The result is Nendoroid L

Nendoroids are figure line-up from Good Smile Company. They specialize on making chibi form of anime/manga character. It Comes with three changeable faces and some accesories. Nendoroids are pretty expensive and rare sometimes, but the uniqueness and cuteness makes it hard to resist.
As for this character, he is L. The main character of "Death Note". He is a genius detective, with the intuition that could make Detective Conan pee in his pants. the gloomy attitude, the way he sits on chair, or how he hold cell phones is something that the Death Note fans would always remember.
