We’re getting a new mecha anime inspired by the Brave Series of the 90s with Beast King War God Dandivine, produced primarily by the folks over at Good Smile Company and their Good Mecha Smile sublabel.

We’ve been seeing more and more of the new version of “Evasion Mode” Optimus Prime from Transformers: Age of Extinction, part of the Studio Series line.

Reviews would still be present, definitely, but they’ll be more of featured articles.
I’m targeting further expansion of my visual story telling through more photos across the site. Whether it’s an old section like The CATALOGUE, the relaunched One Shots galleries, or even quick blog posts. That also includes the new photo-oriented and responsive site layout.
