While I’m surfing the net this morning about Gundam stuffs, I accidentally saw this a Gundam themed café opened in Akihabara district, Japan.

According to what I have read  the café has a futuristic setting with a seating capacity of 60, serves various kinds of food, deserts and beverages. It also features videos that provides infos about the series that started 31 years ago also they are selling goods such as Haro Crunch Choco and Gundam Café Cheese Pie and lastly female staffs are dressed in costumes which I like when I saw the news, hey I’m just kidding.

I want to use this post as an opportunity to say thank you to all my friends, readers, viewers, critiques( if I had one), aliens, ghost, by passers, androids, pilots, otakus, cosplayers and the last thank God for everything that he has done for me (no crying!).

Oh before I forgot, yesterday I gave/bought myself a gift a SD AMX-004 Qubeley  and also I bought a cake for my Mom it’s her birthday today (the cake’s to expensive I’m broke TwT) yosh! More Birthdays to come to my mom.

About this unit, its not very functional as you can see because its an Super Deformed plastic model.The color itself sucks, you must paint it for you to be able to have the exact look. Arms and Legs does not have joints, it has two over sized funnels at its back, one beam saber, you can move the head up, down, left and right( well that’s fun ^^). The only reason that I bought this model is for my MG Qubeley AMX-004 to have a chibi version(LOL it sucks but it looks cute isn’t it minna san?).

~Before I forgot thanks for reading, Happy New Year to all “akemashite omedettou gozaimasu minna san” and eat/drink moderately!

でわまた！

Hounto ni gomenasai Minna (I am really sorry everyone) especially to my friends/readers/visitors/aliens/onlookers/etc. because I haven’t  wrote anything for almost a month now due to some personal problems and due to my laziness, well the problem is a secret but my laziness is revealed.

So much for that I saw an article posted by friend at his blog site iekcouldnotsee.wordpress.com about Fender(a famous guitar company) collaborating to Evangelion to release a electric guitar with Ayanami Rei as its theme.  Addition to that on the 1st of December an auction will be set for this said Item. I think this one would be a pricey Evangelion themed item so if you have a heck of money go and buy it for yourself and cherish your moment with it forever.

For the Specification of the guitar click “here“. and many thanks  to iekcouldnotsee.wordpress.com. Well thats if for now thanks for the time for reading my lame post.

They were chosen  from the 548 entries from the public(Lucky Couple weee).

The groom wore Amuro Ray’ss uniform during the ceremony and Yasuo-san sweared “I swear my everlasting love to Gundam in front of Gundam”.
