Konata’s Day Out

Got my Konata figma the other day. So it’s official, I’m addicted to Figmas. I had tons of fun playing with Lulu but now I’m having more fun playing with both Konata and Lulu. Oh and still no response from the place where i got Kyon.

First thing that happened once i let Konata out of the box. was let her cosplay as Lulu. She had more fun playing withnthe gun than anything else.

Even lulu enjoyed getting into Konata’s seifuku.

Well we decided to go out and get some food, but first we needed to put some gas in my brother’s car. Konata had never put gas in someone’s car so i let her help.

We got to Kokoros which is the local sushi place and it also happens to be my favorite place ever.

Konata was having a little too much fun playing with the food on the table, she was saying something about “GIANT TEA! GIANT SOY SAUCE!” So since she was distracting the other customers she had to be put away.

Then food came, this is the only roll i was able to take a picture of before my brother and his friend devoured them. I love Rainbow rolls since it’s a little bit of everything!

There are two reasons why Kokoros is my favorite sushi place in the area. #1 is this Jumbo Volcano! They serve it to you ON FIRE! You can see a bit of the flame in the middle. My camera sucked when i took the picture and my brother blew out the suhsi before i could take another. But this is so damn good!

And #2 on the list of why Kokoros is my favorite place is this! Fried Tempura Green Tea Ice Cream. SO FREAING YUMMY!

I’ve been super busy with School and work, and most of all my great aunt and helping out my mom. But i’m trying to get back to posting more often like i used to.

    AH! What have you done!? Though, I’d probably switch the heads on my figmas too. *stares at Haruhi and Lulu*

    Mmm, the sushi looks good but, the ice cream sounds a bit unappetizing. But I’m not too fond of green tea flavored things so : /

    @Larein:
    see i don’t like green tea much either but the tempura and whipped cream make it so yummy!

    @Kelly:
    i bought Lulu at Anime Expo for $35 and Konata i got from Kid Nemo http://www.kidnemo.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=3334

    @Nomadicwriter:
    when i took the picture, the people in the background came out of their car and posed and wanted me to take their picture, but i was in a hurry so i didn’t have a chance

    I have no idea what Fried Tempura Green Tea Ice Cream is supposed to taste like, but I’m making it the official desert of RaptorCon 2009 anyway.

    I got my konata too. Is yours loose around the head? Like where you change her face, her bangs fall off too easily

    LuLu’s head on Konata’s body is very very disturbing.

    Konata looks like she’s having fun!!!!!
    What you did to Lulu…reminds me what happened in Lost Colors on the PSP…
    He dressed up as a bride and oddly enough…looks like a girl…
    Still, it’s soooo wrong to see that…

    I’m Philip and I’m a Figma-holic. (everyone says -hi Philip)

    Very nice photo shots of Konata. I have two with me. Nagato and Lulu are enjoying the Florida sunshine at my parents house. I have eight more Figma on three separate orders! Hopefully when I return home to NJ there will be two boxes waiting for me.

    Yup, Figma rule with me. They are the only anime figures I collect.

    Regards.

    @Rin:
    if you mean this http://moe.imouto.org/post/show/31423/code_geass-lelouch_lamperouge-male
    then i totally know what you mean

    @Redmango (Philip):
    i collect more than just figmas but they are really easy to collect since they are much cheaper that it doesn’t hurt your wallet and the detail is so amazing.
