First I'd like to thank Glenn from Ogilvy for the invitation, and of course, there's Noel and the rest of the Canon folks. If not for all of them, it would have been impossible to live in a world of nothing but TOYS! So yes, I'm pleased, very please indeed.

Long long time ago, there lived three friends:
Princessa, Thy-Dowager and ANdyStorm.
One fine day, the three friends received an invitation to Toy Land (or rather, Universal Studios Singapore in Sentosa) by none other than Glenn-the-great (or rather, Glenn from Ogilvy)! Filled with excitement, they literally jumped for joy!
Toy Land was this magically new hot spot that folks all across the city were talking about. It was said that whom or whatever that enters through the gates magically transforms into a toy, a living one that is.
It's simply magical! And very much amusing.
Happily, the three packed their stuff and made their way to Toy Land. True enough, when the three entered...
They transformed into TOYS! Oh so cute they were.

Even food was served in as toys. Thank god, despite looking like plastic, it didn't taste plastic at all. In fact, it was a pretty decent meal. Most of them had seconds (even thirds).
What caught the threes' eye was this:

And this:

Somehow, the folks that created Toy Land not only "animated" everything, they significantly reduce it's original size.
So anyway, the purpose of this "invitation" was unknown. What puzzled the three were the cameras on the table - they were the only items that remained, realistic-looking.
Soon it was revealed to the three that they were to each take one camera and explore the lands. Their was mission was simple, all they had to do was find the spots that were "un-toyed", with photos.
Exiting the "dining area" or so I like to call it, the three made their way to the castle,

which was not all that far away.
The closer they came towards the castle the more beautiful it looked.
Both Princessa and Thy-Dowager couldn't resist but dream of owning a place like such one day.
Through the castle's gates, they went, soon they found themselves...
In a place that looked pretty much abroad actually.
With police cars parked around. And suddenly...

The first sightings of an "un-toyed" location, in a strange colour tone which people here called "colour accent".

That particular street basically drew quite a bit of a crowd.
Fyi, toy transformation was called "miniature effect". There's also the "colour swap" and "fisheye effect".
Here was one "fisheye-ed":
And here's another:

Strangely enough, standing where they were at, they all became somewhat "un-toyed" but very much "fisheye-ed".
They kinda look like Pullip dolls eh?
The weirdest of all spots had to be the roller coaster:
For a second it was "miniature effect".
Then, "colour accent".
And sometimes, just real.
By the end of the day, they cleared almost all of Toy Land. But before they reported back to base...
A few for the road.
