The Collector Geek

I'm just a regular geek and otaku who also loves Japanese gravure models.

This is my first post in a couple of years since my Instagram page was disconnected from Tumblr. I had become disillusioned by the apathy, indifference, cruelty, and hatred in the world since the COVID-19 pandemic. However, a viewer who saw the rundown of my small Pokémon collection made my day even better. It inspired me to make more videos that showcase more pieces from my toy collection to share my joy of collecting and being a geek who is passionate about the various pieces of fiction that reflect our world today and years before and what we can take from it. It reminded me of a quote from Edith Wharton's poem, Vesalius in Zante, that I used as a graduation quote in 2002 from 8th grade. "There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it." If my videos have a way of spreading light to this world filled with darkness, then I hope those who watch them will spread that light to other corners of the world where people who are fighting the darkness need it.

Another epitome of beauty of a woman's abdomen with the Seong Inner Wrap and Butterfly Panties: Chai Xianghua.

Another Soul Calibur VI beauty, Sophitia Alexandra, also equipped with the Seong Inner Wrap and Butterfly Panties. Her abs are also beautiful 😍, especially with the sunset lighting.

When it came to Character Creation in Soul Calibur VI, there's more creative freedom, especially with the women's attire. I really loved Amy equipped with the Seong Inner Wrap and Butterfly Panties, showcasing her luscious abs and navel.

Other than Seong Mina, Xianghua, Amy Sorel, and Sophitia Alexandra have the most beautiful and sexy abs and bellybuttons when equipped with the Seong Inner Wrap and Butterfly Panties.

This is my Super Mario collection updated. I decided to give my carded Super Mario soft vinyl figure and pullback Mario Kart DS Mario Standard Kart as gifts. Of course, these are in anticipation for The Super Mario Bros Movie coming out in April 2023. #supermario #thesupermariobrosmovie #mariokart64 #shfiguartsmario #worldofnintendofigures #スパーマリオ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmc4PsROz71/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

To round out the good guys, I added Cybervillain Roxy (aka Escape from Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters). My only gripe is the color palette swap. I wish they kept it purple instead switching to lime neon green. #特命戦隊ゴーバスターズ #エスケープ #misakiayame #ayamemisaki #水崎綾女 #komiyaarisa #arisakomiya #小宮有紗 #powerrangersbeastmorphers https://www.instagram.com/p/CanooJvOEDh/?utm_medium=tumblr

Ever since I watched New Mobile Report Gundam Wing for the first time since it aired on Toonami and saw the commercials on TV in the early 2000s, I developed a desire to build Gundam model kits, or Gunpla. I started with a 1/100 Wing Gundam but it was a total disaster, but I gradually got better when I started getting more Gunpla kits from retailers like Wal-Mart and K-Mart. When US retailers discontinued selling them stateside sometime in the mid-2000s, that made me sad as a builder and my desire began to wane. When I started college in 2006 and continuing towards 2009-2010, a local comic book shop began selling Japanese model kits, including Gunpla. My passion for building Gunpla was rekindled when I found out that the Gundam series and the Gunpla brand was celebrating its 30-year anniversary at the time and it grew to fever pitch when I started watching Mokei Senshi Gunpla Builders Beginning G and other series that involved Gunpla building and Gunpla battles that were similar to MMORPGs. Even though I have improved as a Gunpla builder, I still have much to learn about the hobby as a whole. I still enjoy building Gunpla to this day, even as the Gundam series and Gunpla brand is celebrating over 40 years. There is one truth about this hobby that holds true even to this day. Gunpla can be anything you want it to be. The limit is your imagination. In the words of the Gunpla model building community, "Gunpla is Freedom". #mōkeisenshigunplabuildersbeginningg #gunplabuilder #gunplafighters #gundambreakermobile #gundambreakerbattlogue #ガンダムブレイカーバトローグ #ガンダムビルドファイターズ #模型戦士ガンプラビルダーズビギニングg #gunplaisfreedom https://www.instagram.com/p/CZF_wTlO22r/?utm_medium=tumblr

My favorite freezeframes of my favorite gravure model Shizuka Nakamura. I especially love it when the camera pans down to her abdomen and her navel. #中村静香 #nakamurashizuka #shizukanakamura #おへそ #bellybutton https://www.instagram.com/p/CVaz7U5L0oe/?utm_medium=tumblr
