 this was the clip that made me fall in love with spheal  ^^ 

okay, so I just came back from the Ford dealership and we sat in the Ford Puma, and we got a good idea of what it is like. overall, it is very similar to the Ford Falcon. I had to climb into the front seats, but it was easy to get into the back seats. in the front seats, it was easy to put on the seat-belts. (the belt buckle has been raised quite a fair bit). As for the rear seat-belts, (depending on where you’re sitting) the seat belts are on the opposite side of the head-rests, so it can be a bit awkward trying to get the seat-belt to get into the belt buckle. (yeah, they’re kinda wedged into the seat. In comparison to the falcon, they have been raised a teeny bit, so it is a little bit easier to get it into the belt buckle) the head-rests do obstruct quite a fair bit, but I'm sure you can lower it. overall, the rear visibility of the puma is pretty compromised. it feels like you're looking through a letterbox. that is a bit of a concern considering how 'large' the vehicle is, but at least you've got a lot of rear parking sensors to help you with that. the seats are comfortable and supportive. I was surprised by how SMALL the engine was. Yes, I knew it was gonna be small, but I did not think it’d be THAT small. Despite the size of the engine, that 1.0 litre 3 cylinder engine is an absolute gem / fire-cracker.

there was enough clearance to get in and out of the front and the rear without too much of a hassle. yeah, that was the one thing that I was really worried bout. but yeah, nah. the doors open up quite a fair bit, so that's good. So yeah, those were my first impressions about the Ford Puma. Next time, we’ll go and sit inside the Toyota Yaris, and do a comparison. There are some things that my dad likes about the Puma and there are some things he did not like. He did not like the design of the head-lights and how they were bulging, but he likes the tail-lights. He says the seating position is slightly better than the barina and it’s pretty similar to the Falcon. He says the visibility is…good and of course, he likes the interior. Based on the pictures, there are pluses and minuses between the Ford and the Toyota. But yeah, we need to take a look at the yaris. Ultimately, it's up to him. I’m happy either way.  both are about the same price (roughly $37,000). Yeah, we're not gonna buy a car until after my sisters wedding, so there's plenty of time. 

I need these two in my life!!!  ^w^ 

Ohh man, I'm extremely happy bout this!!! ^^ 

Okay, at first, I wasnt happy with what we got in the trailer (the first 10 mins was just garbage. Mate!!! I dont care bout your shitty phone games. Just gimme more info bout Scarlet and Violet!!!),  but after I looked up some of the info that was on the official pokemon website, I was REALLY happy to hear that Bagon will be exclusive to Pokemon Violet, which is the version that I pre-ordered.  Salamence is one of my favourite pokemon, and IMO, Salamence is BETTER than Tyranitar 

Celebrating 50 years of the Ghost Rider...on pony town 

I'm just gonna leave this here...  ^^

Hey every-pony  ^w^ how are all of my cuddly pony friends doing today? 

well, it's time for me to go to sleep ^w^ goodnight every-pony :3

 hey guys ^^ sorry I havent been posting that much on the MLP Forums.  I know you guys wanna hear more about my little pony, but I ran out of things to post, and I dont want to sound like I'm repeating myself. If you wanna know what I've been up to, well...I've just been helping my dad find a replacement for the Barina. he wants a four-door hatch-back that is NOT made in china, korea, thailand or india. yeah, he wants something that is fuel efficient, and something that is safe, and reliable. yeah, we're either gonna get a Toyota Yaris or a Ford Puma. 

other than that, I've just been waiting for the 24 hours of Spa. if you wanna watch the race LIVE, here is the link:

...and here's a bonus:

also, it's my uncles birthday this saturday. yeah, it's gonna be one hell of a weekend. ^w^ I cant wait :3 

...and I've been taking a look at some of the leaks for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Of course, I should take it with a grain of salt, but from what I've heard, sprigatito will be a bi-pedal necromancer (basically, a warlock / magician), fuecoco will be a red alligator on all fours with a phoenix on its head and Quaxly will evolve into a sailor / pirate that is able to create a horse out of water. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. I'm not gonna make my final decision til I see the final evolution of the starters.

...and last but not least, Hasbro is gonna release something ghost rider-related next month. ohh man, I cant wait to see what it is!!!  

...anyways, how are we all doing today and what have you all been up to? ^^

*gives you all a BIG cuddle*  ^w^ 

 If I had a pet duck, this is how I'd take care of it  ^w^ 

I dunno bout you, but I think this is adorable :3

man, I'd love to see these two go up against each-other. that'd be METAL as f***!!!  kinda makes me wonder who'd win in a fight? 

*heavy metal music intensifies* 

hey every-pony  ^^ how are we all doing today? 

Well, it's time for me to go to sleep ^^ goodnight every-pony 

you're not gonna believe this, but my S button has started working properly. my mum turned on the heater at 6PM and I started playing some pony town at 8:30PM. I still had the issue with my S button. I was in a call with my friend of discord and...an hour later...it started working as if there was nothing wrong with it in the first place. I dunno if it was the heat from the air-con that caused the plastic to expand or it was me using a combination of the arrow keys and the WAD keys that fixed it. it stopped working on the 26th of June. you dont wanna know how hard I was pressing the button just to get it work. Yeah, I thought this laptop was kaput. well, it looks like it came back from the dead. okay, now that my S button is working again, I'm gonna be really gentle with it. I will need to replace the battery. when I brought it down-stairs so my dad could measure it (he's gonna get a cooling pad for my MSI and he wanted know what were the dimensions of my laptop. apparently, my MSI is slightly smaller than my HP.) 

(the Old one is my HP and the New one is my MSI. my friend on discord told me that my MSI is a significant upgrade in comparison to my HP.)

At the time, it was fully charged. as soon as I told him to press the S button, it shut off in less than a minute. my friend told me my battery is kaput / laptop is on life support and it needs to be replaced. so yeah, I'm happy that my S button is working. I'm a lil frustrated that I had to go and buy a brand-new laptop, but hey. At least I got a replacement should something happen to my HP.

okay, that's enough bout my laptop. A few days ago, I went to Oz Pop Culture to pick up my SH MonsterArts Godzilla 2004 and...there were a number of issues with it. (all of them were pretty minor, but I just wanna point them out) his left arm was not attached to the ball joint. I watched a couple of reviews bout this figure. they say some parts of the figure do pop off very easily cuz there's a lot of plastic clashing against each-other. Ultrazilla says 'this is normal for SH MonsterArts. parts pop off all the time and this universal to the line'. so yeah, nothing to be concerned bout. if ya ask me, it's A LOT better than having tight ball joints. I was able to put arm back on.

the other nit-pick I have is the teeth. it's a bit of a mess. it's not 100% clean, but...it is what it is. some of the tips of the dorsal plates have a bit of a warp, and there is some gaping in the shoulders, but...you can easily cover that up. It's VERY fragile in comparison to the NECA. I was expecting it to be a fairly solid figure, but no. (especially if you're talking bout the arms and some of the plastic that is supposed to cover the gaps) like all brand-new figures, it was very stiff when it came out of the box. it mouth doesnt open that much, but then again, I shouldnt really expect that much. it does suffer a bit from paint chipping if you're not careful. yeah, that's something ya need to aware of. then again, it was designed for adult collectors only, so it makes sense. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with it.  well, this is the first time I got to test out the articulation of an SH MonsterArts figurine and now, I know what to expect  

*gives you all a BIG cuddle*  >w< 

Y'know, I'd really like to speak like Princess Luna in season 2 / luna eclipsed, where she used words like: 'thou', 'thy', 'thee', and all that. Yeah, I love how she spoke in 'ye olde english' and it's something I wish they'd kept.  

Well, my brand-new laptop has arrived.  they told me it came in bout 4 days ago on the 4th. obviously, I couldnt pick it up because of the bad weather.  yeah, I wanted to pick it up when it was nice and sunny. yeah, so I'll continue to use my ol HP til it can no longer hold its charge. then, I'll let my uncle tinker around with it and see if he can fix the keyboard / replace the battery. if he cant...well, he can just scrap it. all I gotta do now is transfer all of my important documents onto a USB.  once I hand it over, that's when I'll start using it. 

Okay, so they told me I got a 2-year warranty starting from today. sweet!!! I'm pretty happy bout that  I still cant believe this was $1880, and I got it for $1200. if there was a time to get a brand-new laptop, I'm glad it was near the end of the financial year. yeah, they have some pretty good deals around this time. okay, so I had a chat with my friend on discord and he tells me my brand-new laptop is a pretty significant upgrade in comparison to my ol HP. I still can't believe that it is possible to get a decent gaming laptop for less than $1500. mind you, this was on special. 

Also, my SH MonsterArts Godzilla 2004 has arrived. ohh man, I cant wait to pick that up!!!  

*le boops every-pony*  ^^ 

 Okay, this is something that I HAVE TO get. 

(okay, I will admit, the star sabre is WAY too freaking small. I had a dark sabre and it was WAY bigger than that tiny thing. Also, I dont like how the sword is not a part of his wing, and it's not exactly accurate compared to the original, but...I'll still get it ^^ the jet mode looks exactly like the original ^w^ I have no doubt in my mind takara tomy will have a screen-accuracte version of this later on, and when they release that, I'll get that as well :3)

I grew up with the transformers armada toy-line, and it was a BIG part of my child-hood. the ones I wanted the most were Super Optimus Prime, Galvatron (I tell ya, that purple looks SO MUCH BETTER), Red Alert, Hot Shot and Starscream. out of all of them, starscream was the one that I wanted the most. ^^

(man, I LOVE how one of his wings turns into a sword)  (they should've kept this with the new one) 

All I got was the Lego 'built to rule' starscream for my birthday...

I still have it somewhere...disassembled.  yeah, I was a pretty destructive kid back then...

the only thing I remember bout the show was there was an episode where starscream sided with the autobots cuz he was sick and tired of being pushed around by megatron, and I just thought that was bad-ass. well, that and the fact that he used one of his wings as a sword. when I was a kid, I thought that was bad-ass and I still think that is bad-ass. 

to me, THIS is starscream. when I was young and I saw a lil bit of the transformers movie, I was excited to see starscream in the movie, but he wasnt anything like the one I saw in armada. (yeah, like most kids, I was unable to get past the part where Optimus Prime died. yeah, that should never have happened IMO.) 

yeah, that's the only thing I remember bout the show. it was the toys that I fell in love with. the mini-cons turning into weapons, fusing certain transformers to make them even bigger, ohh man...the amount of creativity they had back then...  I've been waiting for a really long time for this. (I tell ya, they dont make toys like this anymore)

back in the day, I remember when my neighbour / friend inviting me over to his place and he had the ENTIRE collection. MAN, I was SO jealous.  the fact that hasbro is now making modern versions of the toys that I grew up with, ohh man...the nostalgia...I'll happily buy ALL of them. f*ck it. I dont care!!! I WANT IT!!! 

EDIT: yeah, I watched this not too long ago and...wow, that's so tragic. 

wow!!! O.O  okay, so I just hopped onto the JW computers website and the very same laptop that I placed a $300 deposit a couple of days ago has gone back up to full price. yeah, it was $1200...

now, it's $1880.

yeah, this is why I wanted to get it BEFORE the end of the financial year. I know they have some really good deals around this time I wanted to capitalize on that  tbh, I didnt think it was possible to get a decent gaming laptop for $1200.  Yeah, there was A LOT of pressure to get this done as quickly as possible.  what's funny is that it is more than expensive than my HP. I paid $1700 for this laptop and I managed to get that MSI for $680 less. ohh man...if there was a time to get a replacement for my HP, I'm glad it was near the end of june.  

I'd LOVE to get a plushie of this!!! ^^  she is by far the most interesting character in G5  

Hey every-pony  ^^ how are we all doing today?
