What is the Wonder Festival? It is actually a figure/toys/anime event that takes place in Japan. Usually there will be figures being sold here, with special editions just for this event.

The Tokyo Wonder Festival is an annual event to display and sell “garage kits”, which are sculptures that usually replicate anime and game characters, but also often recreate popular mecha/sci-fi characters and creatures. These models are extremely detail oriented, and many of these sculptures appear in very small quantities due to the amateur nature of their reproduction. Unusually skilled artisans are promoted specifically during the “wonder showcase”, in which their works are given special attention and limited quantities of their masterpieces are sold for high prices to avid collectors. Many of the garage kits now sold at the Wonder Festival are oriented around female characters, often displayed in very exposing and often erotic positions. The market for these figures has spread overseas, and they have now become increasingly popular among collectors in many countries outside of Japan. (Source: Wikipedia)

The Comic Fiesta 2007 was held on 15 and 16 December 2007 at Times Square KL.. I was kinda waiting for this day, as would all other anime/manga lovers.. I went on the second day.. I had my team building course the day before.. and I was lucky that it was held at that time.. Else, how would I be able to attend it? (Kuching->KL return flight by MAS would cost RM900 alone)
