Daily Whatever

It’s time for a bazaar of overpriced toys again!
Gak banyak yang dibeli kali ini, reserving money for other things. Still an adventure.

Sampe saat ini kayaknya blom ada toysfair yang gw datangin tanpa kehadiran grown men in painstakingly built costumes! Long live them!

And for no reason there’s a huge grinning hulk here.

And here’s my loot. Only one, but not too shabby:

Full gallery of TF here. Not much toys as costumed guys.
Full gallery of SHF Son Goku here. Again, not much.

This is a posting trilogy of epic proportions!

Part One berisi actual report of the event.
Part Two berisi actual report, part two.
Part Three berisi catatan petualangan dan loots.

Part One: An Actual Report

Setelah 3 bulan penantian (dan nabung!), akhirnya gw tiba juga di tempat dengan konsentrasi nerd tertinggi di Jakarta pada saat itu. Apa yang ada di Toysfair ini?

So what do I get for staying at the place with the highest concentration of geeks in Jakarta for 6 hours?

Baru masuk, udah ada segerombolan bapak-bapak ngobrol. Salah satunya pakai Decadriver dan bawa-bawa Diendriver. Goddamn Decadriver dan Diendriver. This is a nerdzone and I knew it.

Yep. Setelah menabung 6 bulan (di mana tabungan bersifat fleksibel: dia bisa nambah, kurang, nambah lagi, kurang lagi, nambah lagi, lalu kurang dan terakhir nambah lagi), akhirnya gw berani juga ngeluarin duit lumayan banyak di Toysfair.

Setelah menimbang berbagai macam item yang tidak akan pernah gw perlukan dalam hidup, tapi entah kenapa tetep pengen juga, gw cukup beli 2 item:

Jadi bikin ucapan selamat lebaran itu yang bagus :>

You have about four days.

1. Kalau di layar ada dua atau lebih robot dan tidak ada manusia, don’t close your eyes. Great fight scenes are abound.

2. Kalau di layar ada minimal satu manusia, lu boleh buka snack ato minuman dengan sesekali memerhatikan layar.

3. Kalau di layar ada manusia dan tidak ada robot sama sekali, silakan ngobrol sama sebelah dan tunggu kapan robotnya keluar.

4. Kalau di layar cuma ada Shia LaBeouf dan Megan Fox dan tidak ada siapapun lagi, silakan maen HP ato SMSan ato fesbukan. Tidur trus minta dibangunin orang sebelah pas robotnya nongol lagi juga boleh.

EXCEPTION TO RULE #1: Kalo robot yang ada di layar itu Mudflap dan Skids, lihat rule #4.

Enjoy the movie!

Kalo dicek, hari minggu kemaren Kamen Rider Decade gak tayang di Jepang.

TANYA KENAPAAAA

(that’s me on the right. Yes, the one wearing a pink-bug-costume-thing)

I don’t plan on doing this, really. Gw lagi lewat trus diajak cosplay jadi Decade. Jadi gw setuju. Kebetulan bosen juga muter2 Toysfair 3 hari berturut turut.

Gashapon Kamen Rider Kabuto: 40.000

Super Detail DX Son Goku: 96.000

Goku Style Monkey D. Luffy: 100.000

Being Kamen Rider Decade, punching and kicking on stage: Priceless.

Thanks buat anak2 ITokuB yang udah ngasih kesempatan

Also, gak semua yang lu denger di TV itu bener. Here is last Sunday’s Actual Dialogue:

Anak kecil: “Ini siapa?”

Gw, dengan helm Decade yang sama sekali tidak membantu suara keluar dari mulut: “….Kamen Rider numpang lewat.”

Anak kecil: “Siapa?”

Gw: “Kamen Rider numpang lewat!”

Anak kecil: “Siapa?”

Gw: “Kamen Rider Decade!”

Anak kecil: “SIAPA?”

Gw: “Well dammit kid, this never happened in the show.”

Menyenangkan.

Can’t really say much more than “there’s a shitload of toys. Shitload of ‘em”. Dari yang tua-tua sampe yang baru. Dari yang mahal gila sampe dangerously terjangkau.

Gak banyak foto dan gak banyak loot di hari pertama ini, but hey the loot was worth it:

Saya suka mainan tokusatsu. Wait, “mainan tokusatsu” tampak redundan. Lumayan bisa nemenin Den-O Climax Form dan Zeronos Altair Form.

Akan ke sana lagi antara hari ini dan/atau minggu, dengan tujuan berburu foto.

Twenty-two is a composite number, its proper divisors being 1, 2 and 11. 22 is the sixth discrete biprime and the fourth in the (2.q) family. With 21 it forms the second discrete biprime pair. 22 has an aliquot sum of 14 and is the fifth composite number found in the 7-aliquot tree. It has a 7- member aliquot sequence 22,14,10,8,7,1,0 of which the next two members are themselves discrete biprimes, 22 is the first discrete biprime exhibiting this property. 169 also has 14 as its aliquot sum. 22 is itself the aliquot sum of two numbers 20,38.

22 divided by 7 approximates the number π, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.

22!
