Nendoroid



What is a Nendoroid?

As per the always accurate Wikipedia...

The Nendoroid (ねんどろいど nendoroido?) series is a brand of plastic figures created by the Japanese Good Smile Company in 2006.

The Nendoroid brand spans a variety of different products: the original 10 cm figures, smaller Nendoroid Petite figures...

....it's a toy.

Why would someone purchase this Nendoroid?

Personal preference and commercialism is a bitch.


How much is it?
From the official GoodSmile company they are usually 5000 Yen including P+P.
That' s about £27.24 or $41.33 as per December 2015. 

Not bad all things considered however and this BIG if you live in the UK you will need to pay custom charge for £21.04.

Is it worth it?
For gaming figures not at all you can buy the Metal Gear Nendoroid figures for £45 including P&P. If you require the unique anime figures check Crunchyroll first.

See pics below and as always have fun.

One for All Remote - Panache TV

A long time ago (5+ years) in this very galaxy i purchased a Panache branded TV from my local Asda.
 

I later discovered the company TV was pretty much a re-branding of a Beko TV.

Sometime had passed and like all things the remote had said its fair dues and past away (RIP).

I then discovered One for All remote and i thought it would do the trick it even had Panache in the booklet - code 1585.






It didn't. I did say it was a re-branded Beko TV - i used one of their TV codes and it worked. Even if i only Tested the remote for two minutes and all the options and buttons now work as intended.
The code i used was 2125 however you may need to try other Beko codes to see if they work.
