this past month I have been really busy with a number of things, endless house related projects (I am soo tired of painting things in the house) as well as helping in the planning and preparation for an upcoming party (to celebrate my parents anniversary), so I have not had much time to do anything for myself, also I don't currently have a photography area set up so I am unable to take quality pictures.
hopefully next month I will have something I can share.

sd gundam gashapon black tri-stars
so in my collecting I've managed to acquire a number of doubles, so many doubles in fact that I've started a second collection with the doubles. the last few times I've tried my luck at a gashapon machine I've always gotten a dom in the lot, so I decided to put them together to form the black tri-stars team.
I gave one of them a beam saber from another double instead of having three doms with bazookas which in my opinion would be a little boring. I'm not sure if these figures are real ones or knock offs because the colors aren't right and the quality seems a little poor but I like them regardless.

second hand gunpla
about a year ago I stumbled upon a gaming/toy store that sells new and used things, in their display cabinet there were a couple 1/144 ng (no grade) gunpla, I purchased them both for $5 a kit.
the two kits I got were the duel gundam (the one on the left) and the strike dagger (the one on the right), both kits are missing parts but at $5 a kit I don't really mind that much, when I bought the kits they had been assembled very poorly and I had to take them apart and fix them then put them back together (basically I had to rebuild them), I had originally planned on using them for parts and custom projects but I never got around to it, so for now they are just space fillers on my shelf.

my knife collection
I had wanted to take photos of something else but at the moment I don't have a good photo taking area set up.
my collection might be a little small but these are what I own right now (I think I might have one or two more but I don't know where they are right now).
from left to right: a small folding knife, a multitool knife, a folding exacto knife with compartment for spare blades (I keep it empty), a folding knife with a wooden inlay in the handle, a folding knife with a motorcycle theme (part of the handle is shaped like a motorcycle engine and it has an inlay with a picture of a motorcycle), a folding knife with a cheap plastic handle and a keyring added to the blade for easier opening (I only use this for opening letters and packages), and finally a fishing knife (I think it's meant to be a tanto style knife).

buyers remorse
buyers remorse, we've all had to deal with it at some point in time, be it a food item that tasted bad or buying a piece of tech just to have the latest version come out a week later.
so continuing on about buyers remorse, one of my friends is a bit of a collector but it seems he wants to sell off some of his figures, I've known that there were a couple he had that he wasn't happy with (paint was messed up, didn't want the figure as much as he thought he did, etc.) but I didn't know there were so many he wanted to get rid of.
he wants my help to sell them, although he has offered them to me first for purchase (there are a few I'd really like to have) but I fear I might get buyers remorse myself if I spend too much for them, there are a number of things I want to buy but I don't think I could pass up such an opportunity to attain certain figures, on a side note I don't know where I would even put them as I have run out of shelf space (and space in general) but I don't know, I guess I'll wait and see how much he wants and then make a decision.

persistent cold
almost all this month I've not been feeling the greatest, I've had a persistent cold, headaches, and so on, I've also been busy trying to organize my living space which has resulted in the loss of my photography area (where I take all my pictures), so for now I don't have anything to post but hopefully next month I will be feeling better and have the time and space to work on something that I can share.
