Konpeitou!!!!! and Stocking too!!!!

Been a while since I put up any images. So here we go:

Went to Little Tokyo yesterday and checked out the market down there [Marukai, just underneath Kinokuniya] and I came across these little pieces of joy:

Little sugar candies called Konpeito (or Konpeitou if reading the Hiragana). I saw these and it brought me back to when I watched the anime "Stellvia of the Universe". The candies are exactly what was in the series. And I decided to pick up 2 bags. I guess you can describe the taste as sugar rock candies (literally).

One of my newly acquired companions is having a blast w/ them:

Yep that's Stocking Nendoroid!A perfect combination!

A side note about Stocking, I ended up buying an additional one as a travel companion after I saw what possiblities I could do while traveling! Can't wait to bring her out on trips!

What? Oh yeah! My AX11 recap! It's been a month. Next post, I'll summarize as short as I can and add a lot of my pictures.
