I am here in the thrift shop yet again to find useful items for my art ~ but then i stumbled upon a handsome char aznable!
Story of it was, while i was strolling around the surplus, i came across with the frame areas, he was stocked up at the back, but the edge of the frame was sticking out with that gold color which caught my attention and i was like "that looks familiar, it can't be, no way" and to my disbelief it was actually my baby char! 😣
like who would dare throw our iconic char aznable!! (The previous owner ofc.) 😆
for those who don't know char aznable is the iconic villain of the early created gundam movies/series
Despite being a bad person i just got to love him, there's an anime movie of him why he became bad too, a very sad story.. 😢
Which i can't blame my baby char why he became a bad guy but then there's also a good side of him that i find sweet ~
Anyways!
All my hiver friends knows that i love char aznable so much as he used to be my profile picture and name in discord 😆 hiveph discord server to be exact ~
So if you ask me if i bought it? Nopeeeee! I asked the staff how much this costs and she said that its 250 pesos or 4.52 dollars..
Hell nah its expensive 😆 i was serious when i said my maximum spend on a thrift shop is just a couple of dollars , unless i really need it,
It was a battle of my heart and mind on deciding to purchase it..
The reason why its expensive was because of the frame! And i don't like the frames color nor it's quality... even though this has value like say for example since it's a collection from year 1989 it can also be considered an antique in the long run, since gundam is popular until now, I can also sell it twice the amount it costs to some fans of char too
but what really conivnce me to not buy it was, there was a flaw to this, if you look closely 2 puzzle are missing, so that lowers it's value a bit.
Also, i thought if i want him, i can always print all his pictures from the internet since i have a printer at home 😆 i can save a lot and can admire him to infinity and beyond by putting him on my rooms wall..
like of course you'd say if you are a devoted fan you wouldn't really hesitate to buy it, yes! but this is my stingy side talking hahaha!
If ever i'd buy it i want my char aznable to be complete ~
I asked the staff again if i can only take what's inside but of course They said the frame comes along with it..
Sad ~ but yeah ~ i had to turn my back to my handsome char, and thought that maybe in the next following days if they are on sale with a lower price i can still come back and buy it,
but then the following days when i visited the thrift shop again, it was no longer there, i guess there's a gundam fan of him somewhere and I'm happy 😌
It's not meant to be my baby char~ you and I will meet again and hopefully i can afford how expensive you are 😌
uwaaa. very cool. natuwa din siguro ung other buyer noh. fellow aznable enjoyer.
Truee 😌
