Apparently there is this new One Piece movie-anime titled Strong World (http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/One_Piece_Film:_Strong_World) released by the end of 2009.. As usual, with the release of new anime or manga or anything in Japan, they will be accompanied by a bunch of different merchandises.. And of course, my favorite merchandise is the Gachapon! It's this machine that will suck your coins in and let go of a plastic egg ball thingy, which have toys or other things inside, excuse my confusing definition but i'm pretty sure each and every one of you must have at least tried your luck on one of those before, so i believe no further explanation is needed :)..
So anyway about the Gachapon (or Gacha for short) again, me and my friends found a couple of them in Takashimaya yesterday, and two of them feature the all-new Strong World version of the One Piece character figures.. I've been a fan of Sanji (http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Sanji), not for a specific reason, he's just funny to the core lol.. Anyway I've been hoping to get his figure but for no luck, my first try end up with Roronoa (Zoro), not that i'm a big fan of him or what.. But that's the try for the day, coz my lack of $1 coins..
The next day, or today, is the last class before the holiday (or study) week, yay! So after class we went back there, me still hoping to get Sanji, but end up with Nami --".. A bit down while we were strolling around the Orchard Road, we end up at Plaza Singapore, there we found another one of the same Gacha machine (while searching for presents for my friend's friends).. And apparently, this scary lady at the counter happened to have lots of $1 coins with her, just in case for things like this I guess.. I traded a $10 bill, too many I know, gave 3 of them to my dutt and let her try for a Keroro Gunso Gacha, which gave her the Keroro itself, but not the want she wanted, so maybe next time :).. Me, I'm not giving up til I get what I want, or til i stumbled upon the duckling lol.. 1st try, I got a Tony Tony (Chopper), not so bad, but not what I truly want.. Scraping through my pocket for the last chance I have, I let my dutt to do the honour and at last the Gacha let out the Sanji I want, yeah! I guess that's thanks to the luck my dutt gave me :D..
Conclusion: Today was fun :D
