Yay!! Just what I was hoping for!

Just out of curiousity: any laws for bringing replicas into the country? My blaster is a complete resin piece, so I thought I'd ask on beforehand... ;)
No problem with a resin replica even if looks real. Most of our weapons look real especially our MG-34 weapons as these were cast off the real thing. The only problem is those that are hollow barrel. May have to have it checked by the police if there is any doubt but that is not too difficult to get done.

Most of mine are either Resin or Hyperfirm or converted Hasbro.

In fact we have quite large selection in the Legion and I am importing more and more each day for our new troopers.

Well, it is quite realistic looking. But it is also very fragile, so I'm thinking about getting an Hyperfirm eventually.

Anakinsg: You import HF to Singapore?

Raksha: Which convention? The comic one? Depends on whenever it is.

Yes I import Hyperfirm into Singapore just check out my Hyperfirm link in Watto's shop to see examples. Most of our Hyperfirms are very realistic especially the Woodgrained and weathered versions. I have ordered for most of our troopers. They are not cheap but well worth the money if you can afford it.

I am the Garrison GML so if you need any help just let me know and I will do my best to help.

Well, today I made my official request for transfer to the Singapore Garrison!!

I'll be coming to Singapore probably the last week in May, then me and my wife will have 3 weeks vacation in the region in June, before she starts work on the 22nd of June.

Looking forward to meeting you all!

Ok, I now know when I leave here...

I depart from Norway May 29th, arrive in Singapore may 30th.

Me and my wife will then spend a couple of weeks on vacation in Asia, before we "officially" move in on June 22nd.

So, I'll be there in a few short weeks!

Just a question: As me and my wife are going to have 3 weeks vacation before she starts working, we thought we'd do some travelling in Asia.

We were thinking about Redang beach in Malaysia, but maybe someone here have any suggestions for decent hotel there? And what would be the easiest way to get there?
