P.O.P One Piece Strong World Figures
Megahouse Portraits of Pirates figures, one of the mostly highly sorted out anime figures due to their accuracy and likeness to the anime characters itself.
With the success of the movie, One Piece Strong World there came a line of P.O.P One Piece Strong World figures. This line was what started me to collect P.O.P figures as before this, to complete the straw hat crew would be nearly impossible as they are going for crazy amounts of money and i couldn't afford them. I may of started late but i feel that i started at the right time as this is a good starting point. As who wouldn't want a set of the straw hat crew in SUITS!!!
This is only a small portion of my collection of POP collection as of right now i need to buy more detolfs to display them. Hoping to make a row for the Seven Warlords, the New Sailing Again figures and the Battle of Marineford.

Dark Knight Rises Review - Spoilers Alert
It's been a while since my last post so i thought i would make a post about
my own opinon about the latest blockbuster movie, The Dark Knight Rises. It is
the conclusive epic ending of the movie and i loved it.
Watching the first screening at 12 am
with my girlfriend could not have been any better as now she is also a
fan of the Batman, but more of Christan Bale.
Christopher Nolans rendetion of Bane and Catwoman proved me wrong as i
enjoyed both these new characters as each bought a new playing field for the
characters. Bane espiecally bought a menacing feel as you could tell from the
get go that he was not a man to mess with. Sure his plan was ultimately Taylia
Al Ghuls, but it doesn't mean he didn't have a big part in intiating the plan.
The fight scenes were very enjoyable to watch as the scene with Bane breaking
Batman's back was one to remember from.
The only nick pick i could have asked from the movie would be for more
Batman. He is barely seen throughout the movie as he was from the beginning
isolated from the world and then he was demoralized and broken when Bane broke
his back. And the final one being John Blake his name being Robin. I betcha in
the cinema everyone was jumping for joy when they heard the name Robin, I on
the other hand was puzzled as Robin is persona not a name. They could have went
with Richard which also means Dick or Tim or Jason as these names are the
people who are Robin. But if people think that the next movie would be Batman
and ROBIN?! It would be silly to say that Robin would use he's name to become
the next vigiante. But no, instead Christopher Nolan tied up the triology so
that "Robin" takes up the mantle of being Batman as from the
beginning he wanted to represent Batman as a symbol, someone who fights outside
of the law to protect the law itself. And that is what it means to be Batman as
it carries a big burden and role to fulfil and Bruce Wayne saw that
determination and scene of rightousness in John Blake as he could fulfill the
role of being Batman.
In the end i enjoyed the movie very much and watched it for what it is. A
conclusion to an epic trilogy, sure it didn't meet up to the expectations of
the Dark Knight. But that movie was a masterpiece in its own and we should appreciate
movies by being more open minded. It was by far no where near "bad"
or "terrible" as people have been criticizing so much that the movie
fell short on their expectations. In the end they are opinions and they
shouldn't affect your judgement on the movie. You either hate it or you love it
and in my opinion i loved it. Haters going to hate.
By the end of this year I hope to collect all the Hot Toys Batman figures
as they are a very stunning collection to have. My only issue is that with the
Batman figures as i wished the rubber suit didn't hinder the articulation and
with also the fear that in the long run stretch marks would be shown if the
figure is left in a dynamic pose. All and all the figures look great and i hope
you guys enjoy my picture segment as there are much more to come.
