  • Banzai! Blurbies!

    • Banzai Beat forums going away

      I want to thank everyone for making the forums fun. But due to spammers I just don't want to deal with it. They make hundreds of accounts and spam the living hell out of the forums.

      so on that note I'm taking them offline due to very little use and I'm not watching my bandwidth bill be sucked up my spammers.

      Thanks again and look forward to a new episode in the coming days.

    • Setsukyie Rah-rah!

      Lol exams. Good luck! Or maybe you can just tell your teachers that you are not interested in ordinary exams. =D

    • Exams...

      I have exams today and for the rest of the week. *sigh*

      Wish me luck ^_^

    • Work...work...

      The work...It is piling up!!! Why can't reality and anime co-exist in peace?!??!?!!

  • Okay, with so many pictures I decided to split the Day 1 coverage to 2 posts.

    Here’s the second half so enjoy…

    Of course, no Toy/Comic/Anime related exhibition is complete without Cosplayers! (or also known as people who dress up as their favourite characters)

    So here are some pictures of said cosplayers.


    Even Exorcists need a break from killing Akuma…

    With the participation of the Singapore Garrison of the 501st Legion in one of the events, the place was crawling with Stormtroopers and even Darth Vader! Maybe they were searching for the two Jedi above. Danny Choo will certainly feel at home in this Convention =D

    Then of course there is the Cosplay Competition. Day 1’s theme is “Movies” and so we’ve got the contestants below…


    Rogue from X-men


    Star-Trek. I don’t watch it so no idea. But he has good showmanship =D


    Guy with Assault Rifle A.


    Guy with Assault Rifle B


    Guy with Assault Rifle C


    Guy with Assault Rifle D. Well, he’s from the movie SWAT apparently.


    OMFG it’s GODZILLA!!!


    Lord Voldemort from Harry Potter


    I’m not sure but I think she’s Arwen from Lord of The Rings


    Susan from The Chronicles of Narnia


    One of the Ultramen (there are too darn many)

    For the group category, we had only 2 teams.


    Pardon me for not knowing who they are but I am no Star-Trek fan. =D


    A Jedi Master and A Sith Lord. They unexpectedly put up a cool fighting skit and I didn’t film it T_T

    So that’s that for the cosplayers.

    While down at the Convention, I was surprised to see that Collateral Damage Studios had put a booth selling their stuff. They had some StrikerS posters they drew up which I had been itching to get but was too late to pre-order. So can see some of their works here. They will be down on the second day as well as the upcoming Cosfest 2008.

      Lord Voldemort from Harry Potter… Isn’t that Darth Sidious, aka Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars?

      I have absolutely no idea. I could be wrong but I can swear I heard the MC say “Harry Potter”
