Its been almost 2 years since I first started this blog with the idea of sharing this poisonous passion of collecting toys. It all started out with a little 1/144 gundam Mark II and a fantastic Gundam0083 anime which helped me immensely in my journey. I did stop for a while however watching gundam 00 brought back the gundam fan in me and since then I have never looked back!
At first I only thought of collecting just gundams and gundams alone. But fate has it and interestingly due to a very good fellow blogger rockleelotus who sadly has left the blog sphere, infected me with all the cute nendoroids that currently are swarming my desk! I wish him all the best in his future projects, hopefully one day he might pop by again. Then a trip down to the Toys Games and Convection 2009 got me infected with another series of toys called Ugly dolls…they are so butt ugly they are cute. I pray I will not stumble upon another series of toys to collect in the future…but then who knows what the future might portend.
Personally as I blog I felt that I too grew with the blog. With a growing collection, soon I picked up the shutter bug syndrome…now I can never leave my house without the camera! (With a nice figure or two in the bag ^^) I am also very fortunate to have met a bunch of crazy fellows and modelers who have been very much the driving force to my long journey of becoming a better modeler! If you guys have any questions with regards to modeling, feel free to drop a mail or too here at d24duran@yahoo.com.sg
I’ll try my best to help if I can! Happy reading!

Wedding preps going well ^^ luckily no hiccups so far man….
new refreshing layout for your blog.
cmon chubbs, post something here ^^
Lol no i’ll lose my gunpla!!! lol…its tempting… though..
Hello there,
Say. You got a really cool Gundam toy blog there! You’ve certainly got the talent and precision of having a great showcase of Gundam toys you built. Wish I could find the time for myself to build these things…. I collect toys too mind you. But what I lack is the time. It’s fairly difficult to get all the details you want to express when building and blogging about them at the same time. So instead I have blog that talks all the mecha (besides Gundam) people like when they were kids. lol ^^
Was it hard when you first get into building them?
Heh thanks for all the encouraging comments mate😀 Time definitely is a big factor, and I am glad I have an understanding wife who gives me the space and time to pursue my hobby. I know its hard trying to balance work and yet finding the inspiration to blog about our hobbies ^^ For gundam kits it isn’t really hard building them, but what i do find very challenging is modding and painting them to suit my tastes!
Thanks for dropping by once again and enjoy your time here!
