The G6900-GR3 is part of the new Casio G-shock Green Series collection. I don’t know how ‘limited’ it is, but I do think it is ‘limited edition’. You still can get it at watch shops, or at Sungei Wang as off now. Going price will be around RM300 ~ RM320, do not get ripped off!!

The green color used here is exactly same as the Frogman Love The Sea and Earth (model #GW-200F-3JR, note ’3′, denominating the green color) edition, popularly dubbed the ‘Kermit‘ by many G-shock enthusiasts.

The GW-200Z is the final edition in the GW-200 series, thus being coined the nickname ‘The Final Frogman‘. Caged in a titanium housing, it is anti-rust and is 200 meters water resistant.

Just got this in recently. The watch shops in Malaysia, both the official Marco and unofficial distributors are stocking them, so hurry and get yours before they all run out. Shops in Sungei Wang received from 3 – 5 units each, not sure if they can order more, so quickly get them while they are still on display.

Bite. Yeah, bite. Bite is Deja Voodoo Spells‘ (DVS) second offering, after their debut album ‘I am what I am‘ 5 years ago. Clearly, everyone knows that DVS’ lead guitarist, Rithan, is one of Malaysia’s top guitarist, who is also sponsored by Ibanez Guitars.

If you have expected to get more of ‘I am what I am‘ in the second album, then sorry to say, but you won’t. It’s more of what St. Anger was to the previous Metallica albums. Well, just sort of, not exactly. So, what has exactly changed in the 5 years between the first album and this one?

The album has already caught the attention of millions, with singles ‘Rock and Roll‘ and ‘Wanting You‘ voted to the number 1 spot on the Malaysian charts, Hitz Fm’s International Top 30 and an Anugerah Industri Music (AIM) nomination for Best Male Vocal. Bite was also nominated for 9 Voize Independent Music Awards, the most nominations for a single artiste, and ended up winning the most awards of the nights as well, including Best Rock Act.

The band have already won more than 10 awards, including Best New Artiste for their debut ‘I am what I am‘ at the 2006 AIMs. They are endorsed by Ibanez Guitars, Tama Drums, Wagen Picks and Ziljian Cymbals.

Casio America, Inc. proudly unveils the Limited Edition Go Green Project, an environmentally friendly series of G-Shock watch models to commemorate Earth Day’s 40th Anniversary. The series is compromised of three new G-Shock styles G5600GR-7, G6900GR-3 and G2300GR-3 with 100% recycled paper packaging, advanced solar technology and Earth Day inspired color ways.

Each incarnation of the Go Green Project features advanced Self-Charging, Tough Solar Power technology – A tiny, solar panel combined with a large-capacity rechargeable battery enables a variety of energy-hungry functions to operate smoothly. The result is an impressive solar timepiece that assures reliable timekeeping and greatly reduces the need for battery change. With its durable construction and unmatched solar power function, the Go Green Project provides an accessory that embraces the philosophy of reduce, re-use recycle.

Recently got my hands on the DID Che Guevara 12 inch figure. The box is pretty standard, flip open front with the accessories on the flipped side. The main box contains the figure itself, dressed in an army green uniform and behind it, a ‘L’ sized black t-shirt with Che’s face and a star design on the front.

The accessories are interesting, a pipe (not pipe bomb), pen, journal with lines on the pages, a cigar, and the standard army gear (belt, pouches and guns). Clothes wise, there’s a white t-shirt with Che’s face and star design (heck, would be weird if he wears a t-shirt bearing himself on it) and also a PVC-ish brown bomber jacket, which fits snugly over the uniform.

Tokyo Blue‘s debut album, titled A Naked Soul is a wonderful release from a local band. It’s a pure instrumental album, with no vocals. Hiro takes the bass guitar, Ywenna plays the keyboards and Josh on the drums.

The album starts out with Spark Of Life, which has a darkish sounding intro before moving into the main solo. The band starts to show off their own blend of jazz in Urban Rats, with piano versus bass duet/solo in the middle of it.

The Hot Toys MMS 103 X-Men Origins Wolverine is a pretty unique figure by Hot Toys. Firstly, if features a head sculpt sculpted by Kojun (who just recently joined Hot Toys and has done the head sculpt for the John O’Conner figure). The best thing about this figure is no doubt the head sculpt.

It is a pretty expensive figure, considering that it does not come with any set of extra clothes or weapons. It all comes in just one tray (I was a bit stunned when I opened it, as I am used to double trays). It comes with a dog tag, complete with WOLVERINE engraved on it, 2 pairs of spare hands, 1 pair of hand connectors and the stand.

The Casio Protrek PRG-130 (or PRW-130 with atomic sync, PAW1500 in USA) is a ABC watch, meaning that it comes with altimeter, barometer and compass readings. When showing the barometer (air pressure), it also shows the temperature. It comes in a nice brown box (outer box is a cardboard box, and inside is a wooden panel box) with a very thick manual. The model number for this one is PRG-130-1VDR (more info here: http://www.casio-intl.com/wat/protrek/triple_sensor/prg-130.html).

Besides the standard timekeeping, alarm and stop watch features, it also has a tide and moon graph. Not to mention that the battery is recharged using the solar cells on the face of the watch. On the ‘home’ screen, you can set the top display to either display a 24 hour barometer graph (data captured and saved every 2 hours) or a day (MON/TUE) display, toggled by using the Adjust button.

Hujan‘s second album, Mencari Konklusi can be considered as a ‘real’ album, considering their first album was actually a compilation of both their earlier singles plus a few additional songs. Do note the new band logo as well.

Hujan has really came a long way since their first green colored single which featured their signature hit songs such as Pagi Yang Gelap, Kuala Lumpur and Ahmoi Chantek which are now on their ‘must-play’ songs on their live sets.

Fast forward 2 years, when they won the award for ‘Lagu Rock Terbaik‘ at the Anugerah Industri Musik ke-16. Mencari Konklusi was released in September 2009 and is more of a mini album, rather than a ‘full length LP’. It only has 7 songs, which are

The DW6900MS-1 is a stealth DW6900 model with a the words and the EL button on the case in black (or in other words, not inked/printed). This was released as part of the ‘Military Inspired‘ series. Other models in the series are the Frogman GW200MS, Mudman G9000MS and the classic DW5600MS (which I will be acquiring real soon).
