Back from A-kon~

With TONS of goodies.

First off, the Hetalia photo shoot. was.freaking.epic. I think we had everyone at one point (except Cuba, most Africans, Middle Easterns, Netherlands, and Norway). There was even genderbends, colonials, and Gakuen Hetalians!

I got so many photos, I don't even know where to start, man. Some of my faves, and if you guys request

I got the manga too.. XDD I was so freaking excited! They had it under the table and you had to ask for it. I also got to snatch a couple of Hetalia cellphone straps >w< I also think New Zealand is a girl.. it's so cute! Even though I think Vash should also have a sheep, just sayin' /gets shoot

Thank you so much for coming to the shoots! We had a blast :3 I will let our Hungary know what you think of her costume (I'm sure she will squee in glee...XD)

Spain was in the War of the Austrian Succession, Prussia, France and Spain in one side (that's how the bad-friends trio started) and England, Hungary and Austria on the other ;D

And if you look closely, the cover is slightly holographic. I even kept the ad inserts XD

I'm really glad I asked. Though it still astounds me why HETALIA of all manga would be kept under a table. And the owner didn't seem very nice, but hey, the store had the manga, so whatevs.

Y-you did? /is jealous/ I knew I should have come to the dealer's room early. But I seriously doubted they carried much Hetalia merchandise. I was surprised vol 3 was available at all. By the time I found an Axis fan, I ran out of money to buy it D: Though if I found plushies, I would have given up all my food money to buy it.

I think NZ is a girl too...and she's SO CUTE. I would want to go as her at cons, but there's still the hair color limitation >_>

PFFT. If I had my way, Vash would have been a GIRL. With glasses. And lots of testosterone.

Oooh. lol, I'm only starting in World history next year, so I'm bound to be made of history fail XD

I loved that War!Hungary so much! Everyone looked so amazing.

Thank you for uploading sharing these pictures with us. I was the Children's Day Hungary for that day. You graciously let me go through your Hetalia vol.3 (and I read aloud/translated several strips for those around me).

[star_jinin]

I KNOW RIGHT? I never really got a closer look, so if I saw that Hungary again, I wouldn't be able to identify her /fails/

And thank you for translating some of that! My friend and I were loling throughout the day at the Poland+Liet strip. Oh Poland, why so awesome?

YOU. *POINTS* FEM!JAPAN. YOU WERE THE FRIGGING CUTEST THING EVER. ;___________; *latches* I think I must've hugged you like three or four times every time I saw you. (I was the Italy with the white surrender flag and the pipe cleaner curl) Also these pictuuuures ;O; I haven't been able to find many decent shots of the WWII shot, and then BAM I find your entry. <3 <3 <3 <3 I can die happy now.

Thankyuu! Especially considering my cosplay was literally put together in like, half an hour (my plans to create my own cosplay was cockblocked by parent intervention), I'm flattered.

LOL at our ratios of Italies to Germanies. Wish more of them showed up for the...what, second day? Or the first? Doitsu got his Italia harem ;D At least somebody's happy XD

Yeah, I loved the uber-cool WWII shot too! Actually, I think I got shots from every gathering of nation-tans. Wish I could have done them up without my internet freezing on me x_x
