Gundam : MG Sinanju Ver.Ka
2 people found the following helpful
February 1, 2009 Finally ShinanjuThis one awesome MG figure you must have in your display cabinet especially if you have Unicorn MG. However, here are the setbacks for this kit
1) Stickers and stickers
2) Weapon keeps popping off due to the design at the wrist
3) Same goes to the shield but on the shoulder there is a "T" joint to hold the shield

Ip Man (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)
1 people found the following helpful
January 28, 2009 Buy this DVD now!!!Donnie Yen is indeed Ipman. Great casting, directing, storyline, acting, fighting, set up and everything. Thank you Wilson and Donnie Yen for making such a wonderful movie. Just when you thought Hong Kong has no more nice movies to offer, Ipman came along. I hope the sequels will be equally good so I can collect them all. One of the best movie in 2008.

Gundam : MG Shinmusha Gundam
July 23, 2008 Shin Musha MasterGradeA nice figure to keep. Caution when you cut the "leg" it is rather complicated like Perfect Grade version. Head too white and bright should put some color there. Limited movement on ankle part. Stickers for two Shin Musha versions but I applied all stickers. Overall, still highly recommended.

Transformer : Henkei! Transformer D-05 Octane
July 23, 2008 Triple changerGood in vehicle mode but legs rather long when in robot form. Head not able to turn 90 degrees to the left or right, very limited movement. Not recommended unless you want to complete the Classic series.

July 23, 2008 Improved G1 series
Good in both vehicle and robot form. Feet rather small thus limited postures. Transformation at the back not good as the back will not hold on to its body. I am using both car doors to hold the back s to store it in place. Recommended for die hard fans only.

Transformers : Binaltech BT20 Meister feat Mazda RX-8 MAZDASPEED Version 2
July 6, 2008 Argent MeisterThis was released together with BlueStreak. Both of them were remolds of previous Binaltechs. Lower your expectations for the quality. I recommend Meister over Subaru as the transformation is easier. Caution, tranformation is likely to create scratches on its metal body.

Jumper (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)
Jumper (DVD) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region 3
(1)Our Price: US$13.49Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysJune 30, 2008 Only GodJumper? Imagine a person the ability to go anywhere he wants, provided he has seen the place. Anywhere includes the bank's vault. Play all you want and spend all you want with unlimited funds from the bank. Simply leave some IOU notes.
Great? Not really when you have a badaass villian played by Samuel L Jackson hot on your trail who thinks only God should possess such powers. His mission is simple, seek and terminate all jumpers.
Watch this show with an open mind and maybe you will like it more. I am rating this 3 stars out of 5. Recommended for rental though not for keeping.

S.H. Figures : Masked Rider 1 (Masked Rider The NEXT )
June 20, 2008 Super!!One glance and I am in love with this figure. Highly posable. Lots of articulated joints. The feet is made out of metal. Frontside toes bendable. Some parts are coated. Eyes are striking (transparent like the real thing). Mask not removable though but you can see the figure's hair sticking out at the back of the head. Bandai tried to make it as accurate as possible. Interchangeable hands. I would say this figure can do some impressive poses that will make you go awwwwwwwwwesome. Caution though if you bend the knee too much, the knee cap will fall off but you can fit it back inside. Conclusion - Dont wait buy it now!!

Gundam Seed : MG Launcher & Sword Strike Gundam
(1)Our Price: US$136.99Usually ships within 30 daysJune 14, 2008 StrikeOld mold but excellent plastic quality. Very posable on its own without the backpack and the weapons. Can attach both shoulders weapon system but can only set one backpack at a time with one weapon attached to the backpack. Recommended.

Cassandra's Dream (DVD) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region 3
(1)Our Price: US$10.99Usually ships within 7 daysJune 14, 2008 BoringBought this show because of Colin and Ewan. Even with these two, the show sucks. Thrilling? Powerful? Where? Which part? Skip this movie. Should have donated all the money to China instead of making this movie.

Gundam Seed Destiny : MG Force Impulse Gundam
May 28, 2008 Buy this now!!One of the best MG ever produced! Very awesome figure to add to your collection. Compartment on both sides (waist) can store daggers. The dagger fits nicely onto its cover so that it will not be in loose form when you close the cover. Small jet transforms and fits into its back. However, half of this jet's body will be exposed to the outside and there are no pegs to hold it onto the robot's body. Nevertheless, A must buy. This is indeed my favourite MG...... for now

Gundam SEED : MG Strike Rouge
May 22, 2008 Strike Rouge MasterGradeThis one is easy to build. Pink color plastics rather soft. Love the backpack where the side wings can flip downwards. Caution when assembling body parts, to fit in side first before the chest part. Very nice stand provided. A 3 inches figure is also included in this box. Overall, ok. If you like Strike, you may keep this one.

Gundam W : PG Wing Gundam Zero Custom Special Ver.
Gundam W : PG Wing Gundam Zero Custom Special Ver.
(1)Our Price: US$574.99Usually ships within 30 daysMay 20, 2008 Disappointed (Sigh)Coated parts are nice. Translucent parts rather fragile. I broke a small piece while trying to remove the "knee cap". Structure of the waist not good. Building this PG is a pain especially the wires!! Requires lots of patience. Wing mechanism not so good either. Caution : To exercise care when you fit in the legs. Most parts could break due to excessive force applied. For the price and the pain, not recommended unless you want it badly.

Gundam : MG Sazabi Metallic Coating Ver.
May 12, 2008 Coated rulesBought this because of the coated finishing. Care when you are fixing the head part (top cover) very hard to fix in and some parts might snap.
All five fingers movable. Water based stickers is a pain to me. Legs rather fat thus minimum posture at the lower part.
Recommended if you want him so badly with your Nu Gundam. Otherwise skip this.

Death Sentence (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)
Death Sentence (DVD) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region 3
(1)Our Price: US$16.49Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysMay 8, 2008 Ready?Great performance from the casts here. Kevin Bacon and John Goodman are excellent! Storyline is simple, father (husband) seeks revenge for his wife and son. Do not expect this to be a fast paced action thriller movie. However, worth watching. Recommended for rental. Watch out for "Mary Shaw" who did a cameo appearance as a judge here.

The Haunted Cop Shop (DVD) (Joy Sales Version) (Hong Kong Version)
The Haunted Cop Shop (DVD) (Joy Sales Version) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region All
(2)Our Price: US$10.99May 7, 2008 Ngau sei lei x 3A Classic. Humour and horror in one. Theme song very catchy. However, towards the end some parts got censored in this DVD version (where the vampire is chasing them around the old building) But consider little damage.
Other than this, a must buy. Highly recommended.

Vacancy (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)
May 6, 2008 Muah ha ha ha (evil laughter)Do not bother checking into this stupid motel. Let me see, kill people, record the killings into video tapes and put the tapes in the room for new victims to watch. Why not air them like tv series instead? There is nothing this movie can offer you except Kate. Luke Wilson, sign him up for the next SpongeBob movie. Him and Kate is like Beauty and the Beast.

Die Hard 4.0 (DVD) (2-Disc Special Edition) (Hong Kong Version)
Die Hard 4.0 (DVD) (2-Disc Special Edition) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region 3
(1)Our Price: US$26.99Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysMay 6, 2008 You are bleedingHe is back. John can do anything including crashing a moving car onto a helicopter. Storyline was fine. Action sequences were good. There were a few laughable moments. I have watched Die Hard 2.0 and 3.0. I prefer Die Hard 3.0 with Samuel L Jackson where they play the Simon says game and solve riddle / puzzles. Part 4.0 was not bad either minus Samuel and the riddles but still a must watch.

Flash Point (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)
Flash Point (DVD) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region 3
(11)Our Price: US$10.99Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysMay 6, 2008 Donnie Yen's signature kickThis is a typical good against evil kind of movie. 3 Vietnamese brothers, eldest likes to show off, the other two can fight. They ventured into illegal activities while Louis Koo is an undercover cop working for them. Storyline is simple and fine. Don't worry, once in awhile you will be entertained by some humor from Louis Koo. Donnie Yen? Well, if you have watched Donnie Yen's SPL (same director for Flash Point), you might be disappointed with his fighting style here. I went for this movie because of Donnie Yen. I love the way he fights. However, he seems to use more on Judo (not sure) instead of his common punches and kicks. That is why I still prefer the fighting scenes from SPL where you can really see how DY fights his opponents and the way he moves or even counterattacks. Overall, worth watching, go see how Donnie Yen kicks the crooks with style!!
