The grand entrance
Expect a very torching weather and BIG toys awaiting in our 3rd generation army display.
SAF will not disappoint you with all their latest display!!

If you are a boy/girl who loves BIG gun, this is for you~~!!

For me, the most worthy trip is going for the SAR-21 live firing, you get 5 rounds of ammo (with supervision, of course)

No…we are not heading for shower, this is the hygiene headdress to protect your pretty hair from the helmet :P

Overall, it’s a wonderful experience for the whole family, especially for the daddies and boyfriends who can brag about their lives in the camp.

Kamen Rider Decade final episode 31 trailer and introducing the new Kamen Rider Double promo

(wiki)

This has got to be the shortest rider series which runs for only 31 episodes this year. Well, hope the new Kamen Rider Double (W) has a better story though it’s intriguing for me (IMHO) to see the Ultimate Rider’s War in Decade.

Kamen Rider Double (仮面ライダーW（ダブル） or Masked Rider Double W is the upcoming eleventh series in the Heisei period run of the Kamen Rider Series and the twentieth Rider series overall. It is set to premiere following the finale of Kamen Rider Decade on September 6, 2009

Plot Summary

In the ecologically-minded city of Fūto (風都, translated as “Wind Capital”), there are many windmills and the people live in harmony. However, the Sonozaki Family (園咲家) sell mysterious USB memory sticks called Gaia Memories to criminals who use them to become monsters called Dopants, committing crimes with the police force powerless to stop them. The hardboiled (or rather half-boiled) detective Shotaro Hidari works with the mysterious Phillip who possesses the true Gaia Memory. Using their own Gaia Memories, Shotaro and Phillip use the Double Driver belts to transform and combine into Kamen Rider Double to fight the Dopant menace.

Below’s the promo video for the new Kamen Rider Double (W) after the trailer for Kamen Rider Decade final episode 31.
