Shinjuku should be nice for 1-day walkaround because of the concentrated point of attractions.

You need some time to travel to Odaiba and there's nothing much to visit, except the life-size Gundam and a good vantage point over looking the Rainbow Bridge, and point of attractions there require some walking distance.

For the same reason as Shinjuku, Akihabara also good for 1-day walkaround, however the whole street is for cosplay/gunpla/hentai/manga fans mostly.

Maybe I will cover all place by going direct to the attraction such as Gundam statue (Odaiba), Shibuya crossing, the dog statue (My arrival station is here), Shinjuku & akihabara (walk around)

35th Anniversary also can get it in Malaysia, it's the same thing. For 35th Anni, there's no special Japan model so whatever Japan has, Malaysia do too. Probably just a couple of weeks late. Also, buy in Malaysia can get extended +6 months warranty when you register the e-warranty.

the price is difference. and i also want to find the Gshock porter limited edition hehe

Please do basic research. It is something you can Google, so please do so. Forumers are kind enough to give you info, but do not take help for granted.
