Down To KL (Day 1)

I left Bidor at 3.15pm, heading towards KL. The weather was fine along the way despite the fact that it was being rainy daily. Upon reaching the entrance of KL, there was a sudden surge of traffic heading towards Jalan Duta (as usual). Bro called me at 4.30pm telling me that he just started his journey and stranded in LDP. I told him it was OK, cos' my coach still need at least 30 mins to struggle through the bottleneck. Eventually, reached Pudu, hopped off and walked towards Shell. It was...

Keng Woo & Cherrie’s Visit

Keng Woo & Cherrie Li visited my little Cybertron today. He is smart enough not to get lost as my housing area does not actually appear in the GPS. My Google Earth plottings that he printed out proved handy at last. Armed with his DSLR, his visit is not just meeting me up but also to look and admire my Transformers collection. This couple is the second guest that visited my humble little home. Mom fixed lunch and desserts for them, and boy they were full. We never leave our guest with...

Brown Goes Bonkers

Transformers mania has not only influenced millions of fans worldwide, but also to the British politician. The only person who got poisoned with this mecha craze is none other than the British Prime Minister - Gordon Brown. I am not sure if his statement was a mere joke but his statement does cause some resentment among the representative of the house branding him as childish. Check out this news article from Dailymail. "Just weeks ago, Gordon Brown claimed that he had saved the entire world...

Kitbash: Protectobots Homage

Robotcon 2007, a Transformers event where TransMY was closely involved prior to the Transformers Movie release was truly an inspiration for me to come up with this project for to 'establish' TransMY-themed Transformers realm that was geared up for future exhibitions and conventions. This project will be a debut to the 'launch' of more locally based TF kitbashes so that more members and fans might take up, thus pursuing this sub-hobby of kitbashing/customising as a main hobby apart from just...

Cybertron Down II

TransMY was down again. The last I logged was an hour before midnight. Upon loading the page, I was shocked to be greeted by error 402. Sensing something wasn't right, I checked my FTP. Fortunately my FTP was still functional, but I was sadden that my webserver was empty. The only remaining file and folder was found was a com_expose component in the component folder. I was surprised and appalled for the first time in my webmastering years, something like this could have happen. I would...

3 Days of Blackout

Nothin much to do during my Pt.2 leave. So I unboxed Blackout and took shots of him for 3 days starting the 15th, 17th & finally 19th. Honestly speaking, most fans adored leaders like Megatron more than henchmen, but in my case Blackout standout as the most interesting and well-developed character in the movie though being just a small-role playing henchmen. Thats why I so damn wanna own him as being one of the biggest badass frying up SOCCENT in the movie which was darn cool. The...

Cybertron Down I

Shit do happens and it happens today. My TransMY site was suspended. Reasons? For sucking off the bandwidth 9eventhough my package says its 'unlimited')! But all these are beyond my control. the biggest mistake is still wasn't me. The webhost did not notify me that my bandwidth has already reached critical level. Talking about ignorance, this is lack of professionalism I say. As a webhoster, you should have informed me when my site has already reached critical level. Not suspending my site...
