Sweet & cute discovery at Singapore Toy & Comic Convention 2009

I went to Singapore Toy Comic Convention 2009 (SGTCC 2009) and was quite bored with the range of toys and comic. The only interesting thing there was the display of Blythe doll (amazingly cute with freaky realistic glass eyeballs), and the artist gallery.

One artist which catch my fancy (and earned some money from me) is Stephanie aka Asuka. She made such a wonderfully detailed mini cake and bento and cookies and many many more.

Here are the 2 pinkies (Range Murata collaboration) at the cake shop, acting as waiters.

All those cute cakes are made by Stephanie. The totoro dolls also.

She also made a cake counter full with cute little cakes and cookies but they are not pinky scale so I did not take a photo of that.

I left Nendo L, Shana, Zetshubo Sensei and Sebastian at the booth which she shares with another artist.

L cannot decide which bento to eat.

Or the dessert to have.

That causes some commotion. A lot of people come and took photos! Hopefully more will buy from Stephanie. I hope she is not annoyed with that.

You can find more of her creation at her blog.

Here is a photo of her being interviewed.

Pinky Catch from Japan Trip

Finally I have unpacked and here are some of my catch that is related to Pinky:St.
I have a lot more but since they are not related to Pinky I do not post them here.
From Pinky


Wonderfest 2008 Pinky, Custom pinky legs (g-kit), and Yoikono Bukiset (aka Pinky:St weapon set) are from Vance booth during Wonderfest 2009. I was delighted to find that Wonderfest 2008 Pinky was still sold then and disappointed at the same time that there was no Wonderfest 2009 Pinky. Sacchin are bought from a shop in Akihabara, but could not remember where. I just bought her because I did not bring any pinky for the trip and want to take some photos. Gunslinger Girl Pinky:St are bought from Mandarake at Nakano broadway. It was second hand and it has been opened so it is actually cheaper than what listed on Mandarake shop online. I was really happy that I manage to get this.

Below are not pinky but the packages are from Vance / Mr.Hobby with booklet in Japanese which guide the reader on how to paint kits, do modding etc.
