Imagine - The Man of Peace at 70

Surrealism had a great effect on me because then I realised that the imagery in my mind wasn’t insanity. Surrealism to me is reality.

- John Lennon

I would not let the day end without greeting the man of peace who shall forever be cherished in everyone’s heart.

A great man was born today 70 years ago.

John Lennon, thank you for the wonderful tunes and for being an inspiration to all.

Snaps and Reports : Collecticon 2010

It’s that time of the year again where our calendars will be filled with all those markings of toy sales and gatherings. October’s kick off was huge as there were a total of 3 events held simultaneously to satisfy toy nerds and enthusiasts.

There was the Hasbro Toy Fair at SM North Edsa; Cosplay Mania X at SMX and of course, the much awaited Collecticon 2010.

Naturally, I didn’t go to the Hasbro fair since I don’t collect any of the toylines that they carry. I wanted to visit Cosplay Mania X but I got stucked with all those toys from Collecticon.

Snaps and Loots from the 31st Manila International Book Fair

Primetrade Asia, one of the biggest local event organizers, along with Hero TV delivered the Best of Anime 2010, held at the SMX Convention Center. It featured a lot of activities of gaming and cosplaying. There were also several exhibitors that were selling toys and other geeky merchandises.

Although, that was just a co-part of a much bigger event that was being held —- The 31st Manila International Book Fair.

Normally, I’d enter the convention that caters most to my interests — comic books, action figures and cheap buys on top of those! Gatherings such as the Best of Anime are usually filled with these, but for a change, I went inside the book fair just to see what’s-what.

Animated Feature: Toy Story 3

What happens when toys are outgrown?

Just when you thought that a follow up sequel to what already is a timeless classic could ruin a franchise, Pixar has yet again proved everyone wrong! They’ve done it with Toy Story 2, and now they brought the awesome characters for another fun filled adventure that would make the franchise a perfect trilogy!

Toy Story 3

It’s very rare to see sequels outdo the first installments. Case and point, just check out Shrek. Ugggh.

I was on a rocking boat when I first heard of this. I got so excited over the thought of seeing Woody and Buzz on the big screen again, but saddened at the same time as this will be the final chapter of the franchise.

At the end of Toy Story 2, the gang made it a point that they’ll be at Andy’s side as long as possible. They still feel the same way at Toy Story 3. Andy however has grown and is now off to college. Woody and the rest of the toys haven’t been played with for so long and misses it so much. They attempted operation play time several times until they finally called it quits and accepted the fact that they’ll soon be stored in the attic or will be disposed of.

So what will it be for Woody’s extended round up family?

What’s Been Up and Toy Hauls : July 2010

I’m so behind everything already due to the tight time crisis I’m having for my thesis project. Haven’t read my new comic books; haven’t opened up a toy; can’t even scout for bargains at the hobby stores in which I walk by everyday! Hopefully, I’ll make it to the finish line and all these minor gripes will pay off in few weeks time!

For the mean time, I took some quick snaps of a couple new additions to my small collection that I hauled last month. Check em out after the jump!

F Yeah - Capcom and Namco Crossover

A lots of games were revealed at this year’s San Diego Comic Con — the con of all con.

A couple which I was really anticipating was the awesome sequel to Dead Space and the much anticipated addition to the Marvel vs Capcom franchise.

Capcom proved me wrong, thinking that their crossover with Marvel will be the next big thing in terms of fighting games, when they surprised everyone with the announcement of them working with their rival company, Namco, in producing Street Fighter X Tekken!

Oh man! Two of my favorite fighting games will be battling out in one gaming console? Sold!
