The Site
“I want to bring my figures to life and create a picture that tells a story.”
Kixkillradio is spreading the love for anime figures through figure/toy photography. It is an interesting passion and hobby, you can be transported into a world of fun, delight, and fantasy.
I Love Toy Photography
Sheryl “Sheng” Gonzales also known as Kixkillradio in social media and hobby community websites is a female toy and figure collector currently based in the Philippines. She is a graduate of B.S. Computer Science in De La Salle University-Lipa. She creates DIY videos for YouTube and photographs toys and miniatures.
The World of Anime Figures and Toy Photography
She started figure collection in 2010 and shortly started toy photography as her way to showcase her love for anime figures in the toy community. Her anime figure collection consists of Nendoroid made by Good Smile Company, Cu-poche by Kotobukiya and several scale figures.
She then enjoys taking photographs of her figure collection in an artistic way, creating a story. In addition to photography, Sheng is an artist that makes her own miniature props and diorama. She uses natural elements to bring her figures to life. She gets inspirations from life experiences, emotions, and selected anime & movie scenes. Sheng’s works have been featured all over the internet, local and internationally such as GMA News, Tokyo Otaku Mode, Goboiano, Diply pages and Bored Panda (See more here).
Her passion for art, crafts, anime figures and toy photography has given her great opportunities and fun experiences. She had worked with top Japan figure companies such as Kotobukiya and Good Smile Company.
She is Sony Philippines Ambassador.

Hi! I’ve added you to my blogroll with a banner and since I can’t find any fitting banner to use on your site, I’ve customized one myself for you using one of your lovely nendoroid photographs. I hope you don’t mind me doing so, or otherwise, you can always send me the banner you want me to use in the dimension of 174 x 60. I look forward to more updates from your blog!
I’m glad that you like it! You’re welcome!
Pyon~ hey there, mate! I must say, I like your blog! 😀 Moreover, May i interest you in a link exchange? 😉
Hello Sheng, just found your site while blog-hopping, has to be the best figure-photography blog I’ve seen.
I’ve added your site to my blogroll, would be great if you can add me back but it’s fine if not, I’ll keep yours anyway coz I really like your blog.
I also like to repost some of your pictures occasionally if you allow so, I always post the source.
Cheers, and keep up the great work.
Hi Miochan, I’m glad you liked my work! Sure, you may repost them. Thank you very much! ^_^
Love your photos and the sets you make. Great, great stuff!
Hi Clint! That coming from you means a lot to me. Thank you! I’m happy you loved my photos! ^^
There’s a lot of amazing stuff here! I only have one nenodroid myself which I got a few months back and wanted to do backdrops and photos with it, so your blog will really help with the tips and tricks : )
Really looking forward to seeing more! ^__^
You should take her out and start taking pictures then! It’s really fun! 🙂
Glad to be of help in inspiring others to do figure/toy photography. I will try my best to post more tips in the future. ^_^
Not a bad looking site. Definitely will keep track of your posts here. I think =p xD
Oh my.. it’s been more than a year since I commented on your about page! haha! How did you manage to removed the blue ribbon on the top of this theme? I really love this theme but it doesn’t fit with my content.. Gunpla and all.. haha! XD
Actually I don’t remember how i removed it. I used this theme long ago, and then changed and then used it again. I think you just have to play around with the Header section.. @_@
I think this theme will look just fine on your blog 😉
