AFA08 Coverage
Anime Festival Asia 2008 hits open at Suntec Exhibition hall with lots of figurines, gundams, cosplayers, anime trailers + hobby shops and the uber long queue to get in!
Lucky for me! I get to go to the express lane to get my VIP Pass ^^

A Gundam Exia from Gundam 00 greets you at the entrance. So, someone chants “wore wa Gundam!” in the background lol!
Lots of figurines on display! Showcases of latest stuff from Alter, Goodsmile company, Max Factory and many others! i was looking forward to getting nendoroids there, but not much of a collection to choose from with the few local stores there.

Shana-chan! /love. by Goodsmile Company. That reminds me. I have yet to open the Haruhi Nendoroid I got at Aikihabara >.> *notes down in To Do list*

Haruhi was there! Haruhi is Kami-sama!

Power Rangers any one? God, how old is this franchise? I watched that in Primary 3 or 4 >.>
