Let's Do The News (April 11, 2012)

Excuse me Clarkson, did you say "smuggle"? Why would you say that?

Pardon me James but I don't want to say rude to our ASEAN friends especially those from Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and Thailand, but when it comes to those liking over Japanese MPVs, this is a different story. One such instance was the Toyota Alphard or the Toyota Vellfire. If you guys check in to the official Toyota Malaysia website, rest assure that it's not here because both the Toyota Alphard or the Vellfire are not available. Keep that in mind that the Toyota Alphard is available in, and I'll say this once and only once, aside from Japan, in Bahrain, Bangladesh, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Oman, Philippines, Russia, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand. Did we see Malaysia? No! Because the Toyota Alphard (both the petrol or hybrid) is NOT AVAILABLE in Malaysia! Need to say it again? 

What about the Vellfire? Clarkson, what about that?

Oh, about the Vellfire, it's available aside from Japan but also from Hong Kong only. That's it. What's the difference between the Alphard and the Vellfire? Well, the exterior is the main difference but the interior? Well, pretty much the same. Why would they want to ask? You know that the Toyota Vellfire is not available in Bahrain, Bangladesh, China, Indonesia, Oman, Philippines, Russia, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand. So why you may wonder that what's a Toyota Vellfire doing in the streets of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I'm sorry but, it's a smuggled car! SMUGGLED! SMUGGLER! SMU**(mmpphhh mmmmmppphhhhh mmmmpppphhhh!)

(laughing)

Please, enough with that!

Let me talk, okay? Let me talk!

No, please. Kindly enough with that and let's move on to the news. Remember the movie titled "Act of Valor", an action movie starring active-duty US NAVY SEALS? Guess what chaps, some Filipinos aren't impressed about that movie because of the opening scene where set set in Manila with Filipino terrorists killing the American ambassador and his son along with dozens of children by detonating an improvised explosive device (IED) inside an ice cream van. The Filipinos are directed by a terrorist mastermind named Abu Shabal from Chechnya who escapes and returns to Russia after the mass murder. Some Filipino said that this whole ACT OF VALOR movie is more, well, rubbish or seeing Filipinos are a bit more rubbish I think.


Richard, how come there are Filipinos arguing about that movie? Is it because they don't want to be harassed or something something something? Oh come on...

(laughing)

I don't really care if some movie are harming one's nationality but why? I used to offend most Indians, Middle Easterns, lorry drivers, and others due to my bad mouth habits but it's just me. Jeremy Clarkson.

(laughing)

Shut up Jeremy. No gloating in front of our audiences and let's move on...Hmmm...Hmmm...Hmmm...Oh cock!

What is it James?

It says here...oh cock...new PSP game coming up and it says it could be something from an anime titled "Tiger and Bunny"


How could they get so mental? You know that the PSVita should serve as the replacement for the PSP but why would they still make more PSP games in Japan?

Richard, there was that thing why PSP sales are still going strong in Japan so please, don't be cocky about it.

Uh okay... Moving on...Oh wait, seems that this new Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu anime will be a 4-part OVA and uh-oh...it's the finale!


Well, actually, a little less details for now but I'm sure this is a 4-part OVA serving as the final farewell for Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu. Okay, moving on...

You know pop star Justin Bieber?

(laughing)

Biebs? Hammo, you're into this?

No! I'm not! Anyway, word from the mouth is that Justin Bieber got himself a chrome silver colored Fisker Karma electric vehicle, this is how it look like...



Wait a minute...Chrome Karma? How? Is this some kind of witchcraft going on around here? Why would they made this for Bieber?

(laughing)

Anyway, you know the Porsche Cayenne? Guess what, they'll be releasing an additional model for the 2nd generation Cayenne in this year's Beijing Auto Show, it's called the Cayenne GTS, and here's how it look like...


The Cayenne GTS is motivated by an uprated version of the Cayenne S' 4.8-liter naturally aspirated V8 delivering an extra 20hp for a total output of 414hp (420PS). An eight-speed Tip-tronic S automatic transmission with an integrated auto start/stop function and a lower final drive transfers power to all four wheels. 100 km/h in 5.7 seconds (0-60mph in 5.4 seconds), reaching 160 km/h (100mph) in 13.3 seconds. The SUV's top speed is 261 km/h (162mph), while its fuel consumption on the European driving cycle is 10.7 lt/100km (21.9mpg US or 26.4mpg UK).


Huh? Huh? Is this somewhat an oversized Cayman R? Oh geez... I don't care about this newest addition to the Cayenne but never mind that...

There is news that the Malaysian carmaker, Bufori, said that it will be opening its doors in China and it will display the Geneva sedan at this year's Beijing Motor Show.



Bufori? What's that? I don't know that carmaker but by the looks of it, it looks retro and it looks British? How could the Malaysians do that?

Better not start asking questions, Jeremy. Please. You're embarrassing the rest of us all.

(Ahem) Chaps? I heard that Good Smile Company will be helding some kind of general election for figures made by GSC themselves. Beginning now until May 1, people will be able to cast votes upon their favourite Nendoroid, Figma and Scaled Figures ever released by GSC in the past for a possible re-run/re-release, and nominate various charas in consideration for future releases!


How does it work, Hammond? How does it work?

It's simple really. GSC has provided a list of figures released in the last year in three different categories: Nendoroid figures, figma figures, or scale figures. Voters can vote for up to five different figures in each of the categories. GSC is also showing the top 20 results from the ongoing poll in each of the three categories. Also, voters can fill out a survey for which figure they want GSC to create. So, what do you wish to see which figure they want GSC to create?

Mine, I wish to see a scale figure of Amagami's Ai Nanasaki in her school swimsuit. What's yours Hammo?

James, I wanna see a Nendoroid of Maid Sama's Misaki Ayuzawa...

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Hammond, you can't say something Hakusensha because we don't say it. Please refrain that, Hammond. And that's the news!
