Kira vs L

One is Light Yagami aka Kira, "the God of the new world".
The other is L, "the world's greatest detective".



These 2 are my latest 12" figure purchase, in a while. From the recent bestselling Japanese Manga, Death Note, the 2 main characters have been immortalised in 12" form by Medicom.


Sometimes less is best. Great box designs!










I just love playing with the articulations on L. He's able to strike a few iconic poses from the manga. Awesome!









It's amazing how different lighting & angles changes the expression of Light, excellent head sculpt!






Really looking forward to the next Death Note RAH, the cutesy Misa Amane. She will be my first 12" female figure.


Had some fun with Photoshop & added "backgrounds" for some of the photos:

"YATTA!"

Being a comic book reader, how can a show about people with special powers not catch my attention? I missed a few episodes when its was aired on local cable so picking up the DVD boxset was a must for me. Cool DVD packaging for a cool show!















A pity I missed meeting 4 of the "Heroes" when they came to Singapore on tour. I so wanted to catch the smokin' Ali Larter live! Oh yah, Masi Oka too (heh).

The Black Seeker

"Strike when the enemy isn't looking."

One of my all-time favourite Decepticon has finally gotten a Masterpiece makeover!
Having the coolest colour scheme among the original crew members of the Nemesis, Skywarp is back in all his black & purple glory. Basically a repaint of MP-3 Masterpiece Starscream, Skywarp does however sport a slightly different face mould. The toy transforms from a realistic looking F-15 Eagle to robot, & back.
