When I started blogging I had made many hush hush posts that clamp many things together. I hoping to reorganized and repackaged and toys with more content and better picture quality. So here's another character from 'Stormer Riders' aka 風雲 which I like a lot. This character is known as Nameless (無名), a highly skilled swordsman who's like a mentor to Wind and Cloud. Nameless is renown for his heart of justice in the world of pugilists and he wields the famous Hero Sword.
I was very lucky I find this 無名 figurine selling at 'Comic Connection' CCK branch some time ago and getting it wasn't easy. I had to actually pay the shop three visits before finally owning it. During my first visit, the staff could not find the box and did not know the price. So I left down my name and contact number.
I got impatient a few days later and returned to the shop again. The nice female staff by the name of 'Zoe' didn't not forget me and had assured me that she would enquire for me as her supervisor was on leave during the period.
As promised, Zoe did contact me with the price of this 4.5-inch-figurine. Unfortunately, the box still could not be found and I was given a discount. Not an issue for me because it is the figurine I wanted most afterall. Just like Wind and Cloud figurines, Nameless' sword can also be removed.
you sure got your target bro, for the box replacemet you got a discount too :)
