Comic Fiesta 2009!
Dec 28th

2 weeks back, the same peeps who made Comic Fiesta 2008 a successful event were back organizing Comic Fiesta 2009 at Sunway Convention Centre!

With me having a less superior camera compared to the many DSLR users who was there in the event, i took much lesser pictures compared to last year. Noticed that there’s a change in the floor plan which i think was much more organized this time round.



Saw lots of repeating figurines as well as repeating artworks being displayed there which i still find it pretty magnificent with some new additions to the collections for display.


If only i could own all of them!
About the cosplayers, hmmm i’ve only taken a few pictures then.

It was this dude who admires Cloud of FF7 i suppose bringing his kick ass Buster Sword around that had me taking the first picture of the cosplayers over there then.


Then, i turned around and saw this female maid with her Samurai Sword getting flashes everywhere and that definitely shifted my attention!



please ignore the changes in weapon. =X
Cloud then moved swiftly approaching the Samurai Sword Maid and they started fighting posing for the cameras around…

yah like that…

and like that…
Speechless huh?
