El clima en mi ciudad natal está un "poquitín" impredecible últimamente...
Usualmente tenemos un sol esplendoroso a lo largo de los primeros meses del año (uhmmmm, tuvimos unos días soleados hermosos, pero la mayoría de veces estuvo lloviendo... =((((()...
Este no es el Weather Channel, tampoco el Weather Blog así que, ¿por qué estoy hablando del clima?...
Mi fuente principal de "iluminación de estudio" viene de esa estrella en el cielo que llamamos "sol"...
¿Entonces, qué?...
Estaba ansioso de publicar este grupo de figuras que recibí de parte de un apreciado amigo mío (y colega coleccionista) de Singapur, como regalo y tal vez él estaba pensando que me había olvidado completamente de ellos, ¡pero de ninguna manera!.
El clima no fue tan colaborador y apenas unos pocos días antes pude hacer los preparativos para este "evento", pues no quería hacer una sesión fotográfica en un día nubado / lluvioso...
¡Sería una lástima!... Semejante regalo, merece unas buenas fotografías, así que hice mi mejor esfuerzo. =)))))
Hay un poco de todo en este grupo y lo describiré brevemente.
Primero tenemos una estatua de PVC de Vegeta en su versión de Dragon Ball Z, con la armadura sayayin clásica de Bandai, 6 1/2" de alto, muy detallada y con un trabajo de pintura limpio (me recuerda las figuras de Banpresto), fabricado en 2009.
Luego tenemos una estatua vintage "amada previamente" de Piccolo con su traje de la Serie Dragon Ball Z, hecho de resina plástica, 5 1/4" de alto, muy buena escultura, trabajo de pintura y como truquitos puedes quitar la capa y el turbante; desafortunadamente no hay información sobre la marca o fecha de fabricación.
Continuamos con una trading figure de Crowley Hamon, del set de personajes Gundam Mobile Suit 8 en 1; apenas conozco esa serie, así que lo único que puedo decir, es que ella fue parte de la facción Zeon y la amante de Ramba Ral, un reconocido militar táctico y experto en guerra de guerrillas, que fue asesinado durante un ataque a la White Base; Crowley murió cuando trató de vengar a su amante; para ser una trading figure de Bandai, está muy bien hecha e incluye una bonita base de exhibición transparente.
La siguiente figura es un raro gashapon de C. Works representando un viejo mini-diorama en el bosque, de hecho es la figura oculta de un set de 5, con el estilo del medioevo oriental, muy delicado, hecho en 2004.
La figura que sigue es un gashapon de Takara Tomy de su Serie Cutie Collection Marble Mascot; no tengo ni remota idea del personaje y no ayuda mucho el hecho que su nombre está en japonés =PPPPP; la figura es muy linda (en serio, ¿yo dije eso?), luce genial e incluye una base de exhibición amarilla.
Y por último pero no menos importante, otra trading figure de la que pienso es otra piloto de la serie Gundam (sí alguien sabe de ella, déjemelo saber =), con un trabajo de pintura y escultura pulcro, adivino que fue hecha por Bandai y usé una base de exhibición que venía en la caja del envío (¡quizás mi amigo pensó que funcionaría muy bien y lo hizo!).
El regalo incluía 2 diecast ya publicados... ¡Es apoteósico, muchas gracias, amigo!...

Espero verlos la próxima vez... =)
ENGLISH The weather in my hometown has been a "tad" unpredictable lately...
Usually we have a glorious sunshine along the first months of the year (uhmmmm, we had some beautiful sunny days but most of the times was raining... =((((()...
This is not the Weather Channel, nor the Weather Blog so, why I’m talking about weather?...
My main source for "studio lighting" comes from that star in the sky that we call "sun"...
So, what?...
I was eager to publish these group of figures that I received from an appreciated friend of mine (and fellow collector) from Singapore, as gift and maybe he was thinking that I totally forgot about them, but no way, man!
The weather was not so cooperative and barely a few days ago I could make preparations for this "event", since I didn’t want to make a photo shoot in a cloudy / rainy day...
It would be a pity!... Such a present, deserves good pictures so I did my best. =)))))
There is a bit of everything in this group and I will describe them briefly.
Firstly we have a PVC statue of Vegeta in his Dragon Ball Z version, with the classic saiyan armor by Bandai, 6 1/2" high, nicely detailed and with a neat paint job (it reminds me the Banpresto figures), made in 2009.
Then we have a "preloved" vintage statue of Piccolo with his suit of Dragon Ball Z Series, made of plastic resin, 5 1/4" high, very good sculpt, paint job and as gimmicks you can remove the cape and the turban; unfortunately there is no info about the brand or manufacture date.
We continue with a trading figure of Crowley Hamon from the Gundam Mobile Suit 8 in 1 Character Set; I barely know this series so the only thing I could say, is that she was part of the Zeon faction and the lover of Ramba Ral, a wellknown military tactician and guerrilla warfare expert, who was killed during an attack to the White Base; Crowley died when she tried to avenge her lover; for a trading figure by Bandai, is very well done and it includes a nice clear display base.
The following figure is a rare gashapon by C. Works depicting an old mini diorama in the forest, indeed is the hidden figure of a set of 5, with the style of the eastern medieval, very delicate, made in 2004.
The next figure is a gashapon by Takara Tomy from its Cutie Collection Marble Mascot Series; I have no idea about the character and it doesn’t help much the fact that its name is in Japanese =PPPPP; the figure is very cute (seriously, did I say that?), looks great and includes a yellow display base.
And last but not least, another trading figure of what I think is another pilot from the Gundam series (if someone knows about her, let me know =), with a neat paint job and sculpt, I guess it was made by Bandai and I used a display base that came in the shipping box (perhaps my friend thought it would work fine and it did!).
The gift included 2 diecast already published... It’s awesome, thank you so much, pal!...

The lady by the rockside is my favorite of them all. I think all the figures in this post is not bad, the painting finishing is still decent. It's nice that a fellow blogger/collector friends send some toys to you. That's what they call friendship without boundaries hehehe
you mean, the "lady in the forest" mini-dio by C. Works ???... hey, yep is beautiful, something really different to what i’m used... all the figures have the quality you can expect from the respective brands, with no issues... i totally agree that such gestures of generosity are something very special... being the second time it happens, i’m still amazed !!!
Nice to see them in your good possession and thank you for doing a post on them pal. These toys will be happy if they can express themselves like in 'Toy Story'.
the pleasure is absolutely mine my friend and thank you so much for this present !!! i will take a lot of care of them as with the rest of my gifts, you can be sure of that !!! =DDDDD
yeah, they are all great and better than that, they’re gifts !!! i’m so glad to have friends/colleagues like these and it’s not only about the gifts themselves but the constant support, that’s what really matters !!!... =DDDDD

My alternate blog in WordPress
From now, I will be publishing basically the same contents in both blogs, but for reviews before March 18, 2019, you must read my Blogger blog...
I’m a professional graphic designer and a restful collector, but above all: I’m someone who doesn’t take for granted anything, just because someone else says so. I think this hobby goes way beyond buying stuff here and there: anybody with money can buy collectibles, but not anybody becomes collector by doing so. I think as well that this hobby is, more than anything, about knowledge, about making sense of what happens around us and just like any other kind of knowledge, if it’s devoid of ethics, is worthless. I like to address topics around collectionism, including, but not limited to: history, industry, forums, groups, collectors, distributors, sellers, etc. I’m fully aware that criticism is essential for our hobby: everything is susceptible of improvement and we the collectors demand quality, but the industry around it doesn’t necessarily shares that vision. After all, well-targeted criticism always helps to detect failures and correct them, it’s like critical thinking: it helps you see things as they really are and not just as how they are presented to you. If you are someone who likes to look beyond the surface, welcome, if that is not the case, continue at your own risk...

These are detailed! Initially i thought they were banpresto items like you've mentioned. For trading figures they are worth while to own.
yeah, they are all great and better than that, they’re gifts !!! i’m so glad to have friends/colleagues like these and it’s not only about the gifts themselves but the constant support, that’s what really matters !!!... =DDDDD
