Final Fantasy 13 - Need Help

Hey all, I'm back!!

So on Saturday, I went back to the store to get some awesome stuff again from FF13 :D I was at first really happy that I got the 5 other figurines that I saw the first time I went to that shop last week. It was also a display set off course, because they told me that they have no more of this set.

I went home happily that day and only opened up yesterday only to see that one of them was damaged ( partially my fault for not checking before paying for it ). But right now I'm just trying to fix it.

This is what I bought:

creature kai volume 3

I realized there was no bahamut in the set, although I thought there was supposed to be him inside. (I'm not quite sure whether its a sure in or not)

As you can see from the left second guy, its hecatoncheir from the set. He is toppled over as his leg was warped to the side. I'm not sure if this is a defect with it originally being like this or its because of the weight of his arms at the side. But one thing I know for sure is I'm quite sad to see him like this. 

Right now I am trying really hard to get it back, but the solutions for plastic online are just to heat it up and bend it back. But without experience on this, I'm not confident of doing it. Plus having paid $132 for it, I'm not planning to ruin it.

Now only 2 questions bug me: Will I be able to get it back from the warping and make it look awesome again and if Bahamut was really in the set, then why is it I don't have it?

So that's all for today all, was hoping some of you might have the answers to the questions. Just pop it down on the comments section below :D

Final Fantasy 13 - Cleaned Up

Hey all. So today I have spent some time, taking them out of the individual packaging ( you can see it in the previous post). It was a display set, so I spent most of the time cleaning them up in my room.

Although when I was cleaning up, I could see some minor paint chips (small holes) and also some minor paint job errors. But overall, I think it is a really solid piece. After I was done cleaning up, I decided to take some photos of them. Thought to just share it here with you guys.


Group Shot

Lightning

Serah

Hope

Sazh

Jihl


Lovely models that I have bought. I am planning to go back to the same shop to browse through their product lines again to see what else I can get :D On the other hand, I am also checking the price for Play Arts Kai Cloud for a friend.

Right now, my aim is to quickly get my hands on a display case that is not too expensive. Hopefully you all could have some ideas to where to get them. Do post them in the comments, would appreciate it.

And that's all for today!!! :D See you all soon in the next post!

Final Fantasy 13 - Going for it

Hey all, sorry for not being able to post on this blog for so long. Have been kind of busy with nothing much of interest to write about. But today is different, its e-learning and I get to have some free time to finally continue blogging.

Recently (probably about 1-2 weeks ago) I started being in to Final Fantasy 13. It was one of the nicest game that I have seen, although some disagrees. The characters in the story are all pretty awesome to me. I spent the whole of at least 1 week watching through the gameplay of all 3 in the series as I do not have the game.

Just last week (Sunday 15 May 2016), I went with two of my good friends, Aimran and Fabien, to follow me along to a shop that specially sells anime stuff. My main aim that day was to try to find the Play Arts kai version of all 3 different Lightning. But they told me they didn't sell it anymore, what I see is all they have. Hence, I decided to walk around the shop, looking around the display cabinets with my friends and I found this:

Top row: Serah, Lightning
Bottom row: Jihl, Sazh, Hope

Sorry about the poor quality photo, I will post up much clearer pictures after I clean them up as after all, this was a display set. Although I was not able to get what I wanted at first, but I was still able to get the models that I am also going for.

This 5 figures cost me $115.

Hopefully I can get a display case before I take them out for cleaning.

See you all in the next post, that's all for today :D
