Just got back from the Plamodel Radicon show at Makuhari but need to head out again so will keep this short.
This has to be the worst press pass I've ever been given - you could easily make this on your printer - just like this one was ^^;
Yesterday n today were the press/business days and will be open to the public tomorrow n Sunday from 10AM - 800 yen to get in.
Todays event was held in hall 9. Smaller than Chara Hobby, TAF and TGS but enough to see to keep one occupied for a few hours.
Only going to leave you with GFF Kampfer for today. It looked huge for some reason - could be because I had my face pressed up against the glass ^^; Out next month and on my "to buy" list.
A lady at the Bandai booth gave me a press pack and said that I should ask her *anything*.
Danny: "when is the next PG coming out?"
Bandai lady: (rummages around her copy of the press pack that she gave me) "Sorry, I dont know."
Danny: "......"
Going to upload the rest of the report from either tomorrow or Monday.
"C3 X HOBBY" is another term for Chara Hobby and todays post concludes the coverage for ...(more)

I think your pictures are fairly well taken, but are you actually using a EF-S60mm F2.8 MACRO lens for every shot?  I'll have to buy into it if it's true.

I remember I built this 1/144 scale model kit 10 years ago. I wish the second version of the Kampfer is more different than the first version. Changing the shoulder and fore arm armor and add a new rifle is not enough.

Nice pics of the Kampfer!
Hmm, I bet the Next PG is Also Seed, not UC...

Talking about a next PG.....I really do hope that it will indeed be a Seed model.
PG-ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam will be a great treasure, because I like this model much more than it's successor Strike Freedom.

You weren't joking about the press pass. I've seen attempted forgeries that could trump that any day, and, trust me, I've seen some bad press forgeries in my time.

Congratulations on living in Japan. I can only dare to dream.

I usually try not to make second posts on a single blog entry however I thought this occasion warranted it. 
::CONGRATULATIONS ON BEING ON TV DANNY!:: ^^ 
hope you forgive me for making a second post. m(_ _)m

That should have been on her short list of answers.  Never say "anything" if you don't have "everything" in your head. ^^;  Me too, I use to assist a pro and often wonder why there are press passes.  So many official press passes look like forgeries.  You have been doing so many press days.  Is it hard to get a press pass in Japan?
I really want the Kampfer!  Thanks for the photos Danny.
You where on TV!?  Congratulations!  Nice things always happen to nice people.

Mm... Kampfer looks better in the GFFX line. But I'll be on the fence till everything's in order...

...also, Congrats for being on TV too, Danny.

Those who have noticed the TV appearance - will write up the post as soon as I can ^^;

Edward,
Re passes - I get invited to most of them. Just happen to know the right folks.

Marvin,
No worries - post as much as you like ^o^

Kelga,
PG Sazabi would be too awesome.

Reikai,
That would be awesome too!

Eddie,
Drop by anyway - its only 800 to get in. Getting there is a pain though.

Chitose Nanbu! Gallery pics next weekend probably.

Sandrum,
I made a mistake for the pic of the hall - that was the wide lens.

The Bandai lady sure is smart... I think when she said ask her *anything* I think she meant, what's her birthday and what are her hobbies LOL~
