Skelanimals X Qee Project - Toy2r update


We're very happy to be part of this project.
Thank you Kevin/Toy2r an Skelanimals!



Toy2R proudly announces the line up of talented artists participating in the upcoming collaboration between Skelanimals and Qee. This series will be released in multiple assortments featuring all new 3" Qee Figures based on the popular Skelanimals Characters. Each will included the Qee ...Keychain attachment to carry your Skelanimal Qee everywhere you go!

The designs were inspired by the Skelanimals brand but 100% original to each artist. This has been a labor of love where each artist was given full freedom to create their own idea representing their vision of Skelanimals.

This series includes designs from Jon Paul Kaiser, Julie West, Jim Koch, Pocket Wookie, Mshrobot, PO!, Voltaire, Rotobox, Nick Z, Albert Art, Jason Freeny, Lunabee, Reactor 88, Frank Mysterio, Chauskoskis and William Walison. Not to mention variants and chase figures randomly mixed in!

Be prepared to be amazed as Toy2R releases the Skelanimals Qees this summer!

As Skelanimals say, Eat Your Heart Out!

If this is wrong, i dont wanna be right..

hello guys! lots of games released during the past week, and here are just some of them im currently playing:

resonance of fate - this game has potential, i enjoyed playing this game, but it has a steep learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, its a blast to play. you can also fully customize your guns, and best of all, it has lots of costumes to wear, the other costumes was designed by famous japanese designers. i recommend it to jrpg gamers out there.

god of war 3 - wow, i was blown away by the intro movie and the first sequences of the game, the graphics are topnotch, the story is intriguing. i just finished playing darksiders, and it shows how heavily influence darksiders have on the GOW series, definitely a GOTY candidate

Yakuza 3 - honestly, i like this game more than GTA4, it has lots of sub quests, lots of things to do, but lots of sub quests are removed from the original jpn game. but what the heck, its still yakuza. cant wait for yakuza4 to be localized!

happy gaming gamers!

its raining unicorns and japanese mafias

hello guys! we are still busy finishing our 2nd half of the ganpla series 2, and i think its worth the wait. :) anyways, we have lots of pending projects, so it will be a busy summer for the two of us. here are some of the animes and games im busy with atm :)

gundam unicorn - 1 word to describe this anime. WOW. it gave me goosebumps specially on the last minutes of the anime, the animation is fluid, the design of the gundam is unique. the only bad thing about it is you have to wait til autumn for the OVA 2!! argh, this is torture.

summer wars - i heard its really good, from the makers of the girl who leapt thru time, i still havent watch this yet, but hopefully by the weekend

Heavy Rain (PS3) - hah! havent played an adventure type game in years since the lucasgames(SCUMM games, i miss those..) its a really great game for the ps3, the story is really good, and its like reading a choose your own adventure book. there are also some explicit scenes, so its for mature audiences only. if you have a ps3 you definitely would not to miss this. newline cinema is preparing for a movie adaptation of this game too. :)

Mugen no Frontier SRW OG exceed (NDS) - i love the first game, and the second part doesnt disappoint either. if youre an SRW fan like i am , dont miss this! same action jrpg with exaggerated animations like bouncing boobies hyok hyok

Zettai Hero Kaizou Keikaku(PSP) - nippon ichi + disgaea type + real time action rpg + tons of customizations = zettai hero! im addicted to the game since it first launched, and a definite must have for action jrpg fans!

well, march is almost over, and im really excited to get my hands on god of war 3 and yakuza 3, and by april MGS peacewalker is out!@!! cant wait!

UFC 113 - can't wait for this rematch!



I've been waiting for this rematch since shogun and machida last fought! I think a fan made the poster and video above which I got from shogun's website ;)
I am one of many fans who truly believes that shogun won the first fight.

Rotobox X Robotars - Custom Panda Z Robotars
















This is our custom robotars for the upcoming Robotars Custom Show by Jomike Tejido this April, 2010 at SM megamall. We decided to customize the robotars figure into Panda Z as part of our suparobo project series customs. We felt that the shape and the detachable forehead of the figure fits nicely with Panda Z :) we also made Pantaron.
Below is a photo of the robotars resin figure.

Vinyl on Vinyl featuring Rotobox Customs on NBN

NBN will be featuring VOV tomorrow , tuesday, Feb. 23, 8am, some of our customs and the celsius custom show contestants will also be featured, tune in tomorrow! :D

lotsa games to play argh!

I think you heard the news about the PS3 being hacked, well its true, but im skeptical about the hackers making a custom firmware about it, how can you download the content of a bluray disc? if you think about it, final fantasy xiii xbox360 version has 3 dual layered dvd discs, that about 25gb of content. the bd burner is still expensive and a blank bd costs around $15-20, the only solution for now is to have an external storage, lets wait and see… :) (BUY ORIGINALS MY FRIENDS! support the developers!)

we will be releasing our first half of the ganpla series 2 next week, so stay tuned! it took us a month just to make the first customs because of the parts (lots and lots of parts believe me)

ugh, lots of games will be releasing this coming week and next month, the games im excited about are resonance of fate(end of eternity in japan), last rebellion and heavy rain, but, here are some games ive been playing for now,

PS3

Star Ocean International - this game was released for the xbox 360 last year, but finally it was released for the ps3. everything is the same with the difference of an anime type portraits and japanese audio. the gameplay is like the tales series, it has a real time combat battle system. the story is a bit cliche to some older star ocean titles, but its still fun. i liked the gameplay of ff xiii more than this one, and the story is not as engaging as ff xiii, if youre itching for an rpg game, wait for resonance of fate.

Bioshock 2 - the sequel to the game of the year has arrived, the graphics are sub par, but the gameplay is still as good as the original. if you played the first one, dont miss this one out.

Dante's Inferno - well, honestly i dont like this game much, the story on paper might sound interesting, but its still heavily influenced by devil may cry/diablo, and compared to darksiders, i love the latter way way more than this title.

PSP

Classic Dungeon - the title might sound mediocre, but trust me, ive been playing this game more than all the recent games ive been playing. its a classic rpg/hack and slash dungeon crawler, and the fun thing is you can create your own characters! it is like 3d dot game heroes in 2D, and its not a bad thing. simple gameplay and addicting rpg action. this game is on my top 10 psp games of all time.

NDS

Sands of Destruction - another ho-hum title? NOT! the title might sound boring but the game is a wonderful gem to play! its a turned based strategy game much like the ff series mixed with kingdom hearts style animation. if youre looking for an rpg for the ds, try this and i assure you wont be dissappointed.

Dragon Quest VI - its a dragon quest game, i might be biased about it but the dragon quest series are my favorite series from square enix. i love the game, but its in japanese, so lets all wait for the english version(hoping it will be released this year)
