malaysia%20flag123

Ok... I'm a cheapskate.. I didn't go and buy the flag and stick it on my car or house for our National Day.... I admit... I'm a LOSER!!

Well, come to think of it, I already have so many Darth Vaders... another one won't make much difference...

Ah, the album! The 30th anniversary collection (TAC) comes with an exclusive coin packed together with each figure. You can put the coins into this superbly made album, which has a beautiful mural depicting scenes from all 6 movies!

Boba Fett, Battle Droids

These are part of the Saga Legends Wave, consisting of repacks from previous years... found them at Parkson Gurney last Sunday... so shockingly sweet! I mean, how often do you see these troopers lying around?? :D

But my gf ask.. "Umm... didn't I get this for u last week alrdy?" (referring to the Episode II clone trooper)

Oh, that one was the Imperial Stormtrooper, Episode IV. This is Clone Trooper, Episode II..

Ok, time for a quick tutorial:

Episode II Clone Trooper, Episode III Clone Trooper, Episode IV Imperial Stormtrooper

See the difference?

Oh, and the Boba Fett is a must-have as it is repacked from the Vintage collection! Super-articulated and with a cloth cape! Perfect for posing with one of my favourite characters of all time:

Oh, but it wasn't only a karaoke session: it was an early birthday celebration for CheeSeng! He looked blur when suddenly the "Happy Birthday" song interrupted LeanFuat's emotional singing!

Ok la, they all look to be made of the same material.. haha.... well, they all *taste* the same too! :-S... but the 768 is quite ok.. it's actually roti tisu with chicken meat at the base... mmm... peeling off the roti was pretty fun :P

Part 2 (b): jalan-2 at Sunshine Farlim

Part 2(c): Supper! Go for Lok-lok!DSC05656

IMG_1382
Yeah, as a Malaccan, I can't help but add the comparison with Melaka's Lok-lok (or wat we call Satay Celup). The material is sort off the same, u have the usual fishballs, seafood etc... but in Melaka we have a Kangkung-ball! Yeah, dipping vege in there...go figure!

DSC05658
And of course the ultimate difference is the soup: Melaka uses a thick peanut-sauce, very similar to the satay sauce. It's so yummy that in the end, you'll be dipping in more frequently just to eat the sauce!

*Mmmm..................* :D

Man, just a casual weekend there can find so many stuff. Imagine if I live in KL! I'll hunt each and every store! Hahah......

Part 2: Transformers
Last time I wonder why grown up adults would buy toys of cars which can change into robots... Transformers :-S apa la... like kid toys.

Heh... until I also join them after I saw the Transformers movie (twice!)... check out these "kids' toys" that I have:

Autobot Jazz:

He's a Pontiac Solstice in vehicle mode. Sadly, he was killed by Megatron at the end.

Decepticon Barricade
DSC05609
DSC05612
DSC05613
An unforgetable character: He's the Saleen police car who tracks down Sam Witwicky.

Decepticon Bonecrusher
DSC05621
DSC05622
DSC05624
Remember him? Almost all the bad guys appear only at the end of the movie. This guy is the fierce one that fights with Optimus Prime on the highway. Yeah, Optimus sliced off his head using the cool sword move!

Decepticon Brawl
DSC05628
DSC05629
DSC05632
In the movie he is called 'Devastator', the huge tank that was in the massive battle in the city. Ultimately, he was defeated by an injured Bumblebee, driven on the back of a truck by Mikaela.

Barricade also comes with a small Frenzy!

Now it's Decepticon 3-1 Autobot

Poor Jazz has to wait for awhile before more Autobots join him!
