[Cosplay + Goods] Hetalian Instant Pasta Day

Hello! A little over a week ago, we decided to cook the Hetalian pasta merchandise brought back by a friend from Japan. To make things a little more memorable, [info]pandarosi and I also decided to cosplay as Arthur and Alfred (respectively) that day. 

However, since we were all "cosplayed" up, we randomly hopped on the tube to Westminster, and took photos by Arthur's BIG BEN. This is where our fun-filled pasta adventure begins...

 

 

1. HDR Style Photos
Alien?
The tourists who were passing by that day were all looking at the direction that Alfred was pointing at. Is there a UFO??? There is UFO!

[DA Link]

My BIG BEN, Alfred! Buy me a drink and LET ME SHOW YOU IT! Arguably, the best angle for the magnificent display of his thick, sturdy...
EYEBROWS

 


2. Hetalia Pasta Sauce Free Stickers
Arthur: Alfred's like... this big? (He is clearly referring to the small sticker he's holding)

These were the stickers from the HETALIAN pasta sauce. Naturally, we opened up the Tomato-flavored, allied forces box first. It's because it was also the safer-looking of the two, I mean, what can possibly go wrong with tomatoes?.

 




 

3. Cooking and Eating the Pasta (larger resolution on clicking)
Pasta boxes
HETALIAN Pasta Merchandise. The other flavour is Vongole, and we'll probably review it some other time.
 
Allied Stickers
OHOHOHOHO. Arthur tops everyone else.

 
how to cook it
Complex cooking techniques and skills are required.

 




Okay, if this doesn't taste nice, It's Matthew's fault.

 
Four plates, 2 victims
Two other victims of Alfred and Arthur's combined cooking powers?

 
Hetalian Pasta Sauce pouring ceremony
"Welcome to my instant pasta diner."

 
Eating Habits
Alfred's unreliable verdict: Hmmmm... It's okay 8D.
Arthur's even more unreliable verdict: It's good! I quite like it.

NO REALLY?: In all seriousness, though, the pasta tasted slightly bland with a bit of a grainy texture. ORZ It was nothing too bad, but neither was it particularly good.

4. After PASTAAAAAA and drinking randomness (a.k.a. photos I did not bother to edit)
Y HALLO THAR IGGY IGGY...
 
Poland and Greece won't be too happy to see that face. Alfred, will you please stop grinning!.
Arthur getting his hands on Russia's divine water and enjoying it.

THE HERO SALUTE! Or is that a two-finger salute?

 




5. How can anyone forget DESSERT!!!
Dessert!


"Dessert"
(UK was actually one of the most relaxed countries when it comes to laws against the selling of Absinthe)

 

DESSERT

[identity profile] minath.livejournal.com 2009-02-26 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Awesome cosplay you guys!

lol, I love UK's expression in the vodka one. It's all "Russia must not find out we stole this from him. <<" I also like how UK looks all calm and dignified while America's like "HERO GRIN! 8D"



And that last one... Just... Nice. *_*

[identity profile] nighty-sha.livejournal.com 2009-02-26 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)

ARTHUR IS THE BEST DESSERT. <3

But beautiful cosplays and pictures. You guys look fantastic.

Oh my goodness, so cute and funny! ♥ Thank you for sharing these cute photos!

I had a good laugh indeed, lovely shots.

[identity profile] elsabroso.livejournal.com 2009-02-26 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
That last shot...just lie back and think of London in the Springtime, Arthur.

Very nice photoshoot! Hetalia pasta terrifies me!

[identity profile] gomimushi.livejournal.com 2009-02-27 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
It's actually not that terrifying. I'm a little worried about the Vongole one, but seriously, it's not that bad.

America was a little more iffy about it (says it's bland and grainy), but I thought it was delish...;;

I was pretty hungry, though..

*laughs*

You had a heck of a lot more fun than I did when I tried the Axis pasta sauce (which needed a LOT of doctoring to be tasty).

Bravo!

[identity profile] drunensis.livejournal.com 2009-02-26 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
These are incredible! My props to the cosplayers and cameramen. The costumes are great!

This was amazing! I love the costumes and the pictures, and and... everything!!

I loled when I realized England was wearing earrings. Totally not intended, I suppose

[identity profile] gomimushi.livejournal.com 2009-02-27 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
T..thank you!

XD I totally forgot I was wearing them, as usual. I rationalized it as a habit from the pirate n' punk days. ||OTL

[identity profile] twistedsheets10.livejournal.com 2009-02-27 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
Wow. This is just a fantastic and amusing shoot! You guys rock. XD

I loved the last parts!

[identity profile] ranalinde.livejournal.com 2009-02-27 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Wuah~ you guys look amazing. This is probably the cutest US/UK cosplay and photoshoot I've seen thus far. x3 <3

(Also, I like UK's fabulous eyebrows 8D)

[identity profile] sapphire-pyro.livejournal.com 2009-02-27 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
WOW! You guys looks so awesome *_*
