Just For Fun: Ikebana'GGuy

Added on by the ikebana shop.

Three years ago, we had some fun building a miniature soba shop. Remember?  This year, we made a miniature of our shop...and then some!

Before anything else, a little background.  Let us introduce Petit'GGuy (pronounce "poochi-guy").  Gunpla fans will be familiar with him.  He has a mascot-like existence in the Gundam franchise. He stands 36 feet tall and is very cute. He is also adept in the martial arts. ;-)

Hi! This display was pretty cute! These Gundam Petit'GGuy plastic models are pretty cool. I didnt know they had so many variations lol. For more info you can check out this site http://bandai-hobby.net/site/gunpla_petitgguy.html I hope you enjoy the video!

 

Anyway....

We made our version and called him "Ikebana'GGuy". (After all, "Gunpla is freedom!" right?)  He has our logo as his helmet.  The big Q on his chest stands for "Quinpool"--our street!  Here he is standing in front of our shop.  This is in 1/144 scale.

Let's compare the miniature shop with the real one!

And, to spice it up a bit, we installed LED lights!

Next time you visit the shop, say hello to Ikebana'GGuy...and turn his lights on!

A Little Squirrel Fun At Our Soba Shop

Added on by the ikebana shop.

Summer time in Nova Scotia...it's the time when our little friends in the woods come out and gather food.  So we thought to put up a little "soba shop".

Pretty soon, a customer came sniffing around. 

Hope he liked the food...

Nope, we didn't serve any alcohol.  He probably was just head-over-heels with our menu! :-)

Please come again!
