The Recon Unit Geisha: up close and personal

Sometimes when I look at my toys I think that I am too used to seeing them. I love hearing peoples feedback at the stall and emails, where a common one is the detail involved in them. So I thought perhaps I should try to show this a bit more in my photographs, and ta da! First up is the elusive Geisha....

Her description is:

The mysterious world of the Geisha. What secrets hide in the teahouses of Gion? Recon Unit goes undercover to discover the feminine skills behind bringing (salary) men to their kness with the flick of a wrist. This power must be harnessed for the HiiRagi cause.

And so behold!


oooooo...lovely ladies.....


I actually think their main secret lies in the beautiful red lips...


I actually use kimono silk for their dresses and then a beautiful shot silk for the obi. Feels and looks divine...


Another detail that only the geisha have is that they have two 'twinkle' spots in their eyes, if you look at all the other Recon Units, they have only one. I find two adds to the feminine allure...What do you think?

Viva le HiiRagi! Or HiiRagi invades France?

It would seem that everyone else is taking photos of HiiRagi at the moment rather than me (who should be!). My favourite pirate Captain Blueberry set sail back to France for a couple of weeks, but being the excellent minion she is, has taken a smaller member of the army with her to infiltrate the French! Bwahhh Ha hahaha haaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! or should that be Arg?!







Aw, he's a pretty cute Recon Unit, I must say. And can I say that I am LOVING the Star Wars angle....what a collection. I also realise that these images could have been taken anywhere and that she may not actually be in France. Yes, HiiRagi minions are THAT diabolical.

HiiRagi badge spotted on tropical island

One of the great things about Salamanca can be the people (and minions) that you meet (and convert). The following images are from an awesome Austrian guy I met and forced to take a badge with him, which he then took to Bali (unfortunately he resisted taking me as well). How nice does it look there?!





Some badges have all the luck....

Scoping scoping scoping training spots....

Where have I been?! I've been everywhere, man! (Sorry, that's a cheap shot and I know it). Lately the army and I have been heading beyond the safety of HQ and exploring new terrain. We woke up in this spot and I just had to share it with you.





How nice is that?! Even the most hardened World Domination Specialist and All-Mighty Uber-Leader of an unstoppable Robot Army (it's ok, I will stop there) has to take a moment to appreciate the beauty and romance of this spot (just don't tell anyone I said that). It's Lake King William in Central Tasmania if you're wondering and if you head up there, you may just see us running amok in the wilderness. Or maybe you won't, we're pretty good at hiding, I bet you can't see any robots in either image.



Oh and here is a token Wombat shot. I mean with a camera, not a gun. I want one as a pet but then I remember Fatso from A Country Practice and then I don't. Yep, how deep can one person go?
