Pimpin' out one of my all time favorite sites.

www.myfigurecollection.net

It's a great site about Japanese figure collecting. The site is a database that helps the collector keep track of their figures. MFC also has a great community for collectors to post photos, articles, and chat on foruems. I totally love this site and hope others will too.

My name on MFC is RaditzFan. See you there. :D

It's been hectic! Moved out on my own again and switching to a new job after 4 years at Taco Bell/Long John silvers. I'm thinking of getting educated on becoming a tattoo artist and publish my comics. THIS WILL BE MY YEAR! YEAHHHHHHH! :D

Looks like I'm going to save up now. :D

Why I like action figures! @ 07:21 pm

Current Mood: blank
Current Music: "Hash Pipe"

I'm a girl that likes action figures. In fact, I have just as many action figures as dolls. Even though around 98% of my action figures are Dragon Ball Z and then around 95% of them are some variant of Vegeta.

The one thing I like about action figures is the are like sculpures that you can play with. The other is the detail of them and it's a challange to design a figure that doesn't look like crap, especially around the joint area.

To keep this short, maybe the reason is that I wasn't allowed to have any as a young girl. I was always told, " Action figures are for boys." or " Girls don't play with action figures". See, when I was in my teens that's when I started getting action figures. One figure led to another and another...My action figures are to the point where the collection is massive.

Well, I'm going to need to brush up on my essay skills.

Yet another Figure. What else! @ 08:26 pm

Current Mood: amused

No, it's not Goku. It's Goten!
Photobucket

Yes, it's Goten! I'm sure he's part of the series of the Super Warriors but I haven't seen one in the box for sale to be sure. Either way, Goten is kinda cute and seems to fit right in with my Goku Super Warrior figures.

Halloween Costume @ 06:49 pm

I'm already finished with my Halloween costume. The costume is the Great Sayaiman!!!!

Yeah, I'm kinda going as Gohan. Sadly, I maybe won't have enough time to do the helmet, just a white bananda and a pair of black Ray Ban glasses!

I'm so proud! Just like my Raditz costume from last year.

The Addiction of Video Games @ 08:44 pm

Current Location: Home
Current Mood: cheerful
Current Music: " Du Haust" Rammstein

Recently, I caved in and bought a used Playstation 2. This Playstation 2 is much better than the Xbox. It's saying alot as I love my Xbox. The thing that the Playstation 2 has going for it is that it is backward compatitable. I can play my old PS1 titles again! Also, I can buy old Playstation games that I've always wanted or rebuy games that I used to have.(Even though I was bummed to learn that Parappa the Rapper now has a much higher resale value along with Intelligent Qube.)

My favorite genre of video games is fighting games. Nothing is better than beating the snot out of someone as being a great stress reliver after a bad day. Battle Arena Toshinden 3 is one of my absolute favorite games. Hence my excitement on finding the original Battle Arena Toshinden at Game Haven, a store that sells used video games) for 5 bucks. I was very disappointed when I played it when I got home. Let's say after playing Battle Arena Toshinden 3 for so many years, I got spoiled and the original leaves nothing to be desired for me.

As much of a Dragon Ball fan I am, I couldn't resist picking up every single Dragon ball I can get my hands on. Much of the reason to pick up a Playstation 2 as some of the best Dragon Ball games are on that system. The one I'm really into is Budokai Tenkainchi 2 and it's the best one for me. I also have all the Budokai games as well. Budokai 2 and 3 are lackluster for me. I feel the structure of these games are poor as I love the original Budokai. The people who made Budokai 2 and 3 messed with the gameplay formula too much after the success of the first one.

On that note: the Tomb Raider series is overrated.

That is enough rambleness until another time. :D

Long time no see @ 06:05 pm

Current Music: "Paper Gangsta" Lady Gaga

Again to keep this short, I totally recommended Toy Story 3! It was totally worth the 11 year wait. If you are a big fan, go see it and you won't be disappointed!

On the collecting front: I'm into my Dragon Ball collecting still. Sadly, living out on my own takes a bit of money. Hey, bills come first.

I did manage to pick up volume one of Dragon Ball Z Kai. Here are my thoughts on the show. I love the faster pacing of the story than in the original Dragon Ball Z. The only thing that I dislike is the editing job. The viewer can totally see where new footage and the old footage meet. It doesn't blend well. Granted, the makers of Kai had to used film from the original but I feel that they would have done a better job on the editing where the footage wouldn't see obivious. Seeing old footage and then new footage is unpleasing. Also, they corrected alot of things. For example, in the original Dragon Ball in the first appearence of Vegeta in a different uniform(Neon Green/Orange/ Navy blue armor and red brownish hair) was changed to the appearence that Vegeta is well known for (White/Yellow/Blue with black hair). Dragon Ball Kai is not bad but I prefer the original.

Current Music: "What is That?" Baby Bash

A Long Time..No See.

Everything is working out great. I LOVE living out on my own. A little frustating at times but in the end all worth it.

One of my hobbies is working on my never ending epic of my Dragon Ball Z/Fairly Odd Parents fan fiction although its more Dragon Ball Z though.

It may not be published on the internet but I love it netherless.

Sorry to keep this short but See you guys next time! :D

Current Music: Dragon Ball Theme song stuck in my head.

It's been a while. At my current place, I have no computer at the moment(I'm at my Mom's house).

My collecting as scaled down quite a bit except for my Dragon Ball Z collection.

After saving up some cash, I got me a new Tattoo.





I love it! :D

Current Music: " I keep forgetting that we are not in love anymore" Micheal McDonald

The time has come! In a few weeks, I'll be able to get my Vegeta tattoo. Sweet! Personally, I can't wait. The pain is going to be all worth it! :D

On another note.....

As of now, I'm putting ahold on my collecting. A) I have too much stuff B) Bills come first and since I'm on my own which means more bills C) I'm quite happy with my collections as they are now.

That doesn't mean I won't ramble and talk about collecting. There will be of toy reviews, rants, and so forth. For the time being, my priorities has been shifted and there are more important things at the moment. Maybe when the time is right, I might go back to collecting. The time isn't right now.

Besides, there is only very few items I want to added to my collections which is the 12 Goku by Medicom, a few Dragon Ball Crazy bones, and a Super Saiyan 4 Goku.

See You later! :)

I'm back and ready for action.....at least to ramble way. It's official that moving sucks.....Big Time. In the end though its all worth it!.


I couldn't take most of my stuff with me. So, its either going to charity(I pick orphange!), givin' away (and no the Dragon ball, Fairly Odd, and Invader Zim stuff isn't going away), or trashed.

Even with all my busy work getting settled in, I managed to catch some episodes of Dragon Ball....not Dragon Ball Z but Dragon Ball.

It's kick ass! Dragon Ball is more humorous than it's Z counterpart but still has action. The show is a great stress reliver or want a good laugh.

The first time they summon the dragon, Shenron, Oolong askes for a pair of underwear. It's hilourous!

Sorry to cut this short. See you guys next time. :D
