It's almost upsetting to think that with all the thousands he has spent on girly dolls, he could have found and hired a similar looking girl like that for real for most of the year. She might have even stretched to dressing up as a boat too for a bit extra. Age thing might be a bit of an issue though...
 
These turned up today from Yongnuo direct, no customs charges FTW. After an epic failure from one eBay seller and eBay finding the case in my favour and refunding me, I ordered from the YN store direct at a cheaper price too saving a good amount of cash.

And a boot organiser for tools, first aid kit and other essentials:

And a full set of velour tailored mats:

This handy blighter, much cheaper than a GoPro, less battery life but I'd be only using it for a short while at a time

Sj4000? I got one in decmeber, battery is a hour max but to be honest for £40 quid, is decent enought. Batterys are £5 each
 
Makes a beautiful cup of coffee. I wish I'd bought it last year instead of the £80+ Tassimo machine.

Now I just need a coffee bean grinder and some quality beans.

Paid my £30 ransom for this big box this week which arrived today. :)

Pretty nice box, the figure and character is from the game and TV series [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kantai_Collection"]Kantai Collection[/URL]. The TV series airs this week. :D

[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_destroyer_Shimakaze_%281942%29"]Shimakaze[/URL] (島風) (Island Wind) was the fastest destroyer in the world during WW2 at a speed of 47.1 mph or 40.9kn. Sadly for her and her crew she wasn't fast enough to dodge the bombers that attacked her. :(

Pretty much my most expensive figure at £120 that includes shipping and customs. :eek:[/QUOTE]

LOL
 
My eyes must be immune to IronWarriors purchases these days. First thing I said was "No way! IRC!"
 
I get the whole thing about they turn into warships of the IJN (still don't know where the crew is or who's flying the aircraft off the carriers), but why is standing with her arse sticking out and why is she wearing what appear to be bunny ears?
 
How are they quality wise?

The pile feels the same as the BMW ones, the edging is different of course where the BMW edging is tighter I guess. Given the very small difference in pile quality I think these are a bargain at £30 vs the £75 of the equivalent BMW ones. They also come with the fastener clips too.

How well it wears will only be known with time.
 
It's weird to us but Kancolle (girl boats thing) is huge in Japan right now. Like, full page ads in national newspapers.

At one point, they was thinking of renaming some of their Navy Ships to avoid confusion with Kancolle.

During the peek, they was getting a steady stream of people visiting the Navy and ships.

The game itself has increased ship model sales by 400% plus Windows Tablets sales went up to people wanting to play the game on tablets, but this is a year or so ago now. :)
 
but how is she a boat?

Think of her as a mascot. The characters take on the looks and styles of the ships of old while being creative. :) The official line is they are just normal girls but have the spirits of the ships that allow them to do stuff, so magic. :cool:

If she was anything, it would be a bike.

So you can ride her? :p

She's halfway there, she's about to reveal her poop deck :p

I can take her skirt off if you wanna see. :D

lol @ poop deck.

My eyes must be immune to IronWarriors purchases these days. First thing I said was "No way! IRC!"

I know right, many are becoming immune. My last figure that I posted few pages back didn't get anyone saying anything! :eek:

Also IRC is cool. :cool:

I get the whole thing about they turn into warships of the IJN (still don't know where the crew is or who's flying the aircraft off the carriers), but why is standing with her arse sticking out and why is she wearing what appear to be bunny ears?

No crew, other then "fairies" flying the aircraft from the planes that the Aircraft Carriers fire.

Why bunny ears? Because its's cute. ;)

Video showing them in action below. Most have already seen this before but I leave it here for the ones who haven't if you interested. It's safe for work and nothing weird.
