Mirror Universe

Who’s a Star Trek fan? I’m not so much a Star Trek fan as much as I think this show is amazing. I’m sorry all you “Trekkies” who I’ve crushed by the previous revelation, but when I say the following show is amazing, I’d say that even non-fans like myself can really take notice of [...]

About the new additions.

April 13, 2008

When MPH first released the image of their tokidoki exclusives, [see here], I was uber excited. Like this: Then I found out that in order to get the newest additions, I was going to have to submit myself, and wallet, to blind boxes again. What’s that mean? These three additions will be included in the [...]

I feel like such a fool. People of the world, if you’ve been trying to comment on my site this week, and weren’t able to, you can now! I’m sorry about that, a “spam” plugin I was using seized to function and wasn’t letting anyone comment. SORRY! Feel free to comment and enter the Murakami [...]

Upcoming Release: Huck Gee Style *updated*

April 9, 2008

0

Huck. I believe he’s infamous for making something, releasing (though not always) a picture and the selling it like hot cakes through his ebay shop. Well, this Friday our awesome, yet overpriced artist [yeah, I said it!] is going to be dropping yet another piece. From the teaser it looks like a dunny, but I [...]

So what were they brewing?

April 7, 2008

I’d known when MPH posted the above image that their surprise was going to be Tokidoki’s Sandy in a platinum colorway. I was excited for the release, because Sandy is actually one of my favorite characters, which by the way, I’ve recently noticed I don’t own. She’s green and spiky, uh– that just automatically means [...]

Make a Papercraft!

Got some time? Then how about you print this snes papercraft and “build” your own old school console. Oh, if you’ve got time, make two and sent it my way, I’d love to use it as a prop in my photos. Click the image to enlarge and print. Thanks to deviant art user ryo007 for [...]

Soopa Show!

I have a file on my computer titled: things to post, and everyday I clear it up just a little bit. If you don’t believe me, message me and I’ll send you a pic. ^_^ [ekoala's flickr] Anyway, The Soopa Show flyer has been sitting in this folder for a while now. I didn’t want [...]

Comic Book Kubrick Cars

April 6, 2008

2

While on the search for tokidoki bags, one in particular, I stopped by Yoyamart and ended up seeing these Kubrick Mobiles. They have 5 different designs, but I especially love the Batman and Superman designs. Unfortunately, each design costs $24.95, if you want one for yourself click the link at the bottom. [Yoyamart]

Munny: Chicken Little Edition

April 6, 2008

0

It’s quite possible that other people in the interweb have already shared this, since it’s dated April 2007, but I just found him and thought the custom was too amazing. You can hardly tell it’s a munny, had it not been for the backwards body and hands– and the artist telling us it was a [...]

Did anyone notice?

April 6, 2008

0

I saved this image on my computer because it seems no one was as excited as I was to see that TokyoPlastic is releasing a new 4″ geisha! She’s yellow, which technically makes no sense in terms of the Drum Machine flash video, or their other creations, but it’s still a geisha to add to [...]

Brooklyn Museum: Takashi Murakami

April 6, 2008

1

My Mr. and I made our way to The Brooklyn Museum to check out Murakami’s exhibit today. AMAZING, stunning, marvelous, truly magnificent are some of the words that come to mind. Oh, and once or twice I thought perverted. The space they provided him with was overwhelming. He really was the reason to be there [...]

Flickr Saturday: Made in China

April 5, 2008

I am made in China, originally uploaded by doc18. Clearly, I haven’t been updating the “I Heart Toys” Group feature. Though it’s not Friday, I thought I’d still share. The original title was: I am made in China. I thought it was funny to just put “Made in China”. Doc18 is one of my favorite [...]

Seen: Mist at KidRobot

April 3, 2008

1

I went to see Mist at Kid Robot today. Unfortunately, it was the first time that I actually didn’t stick around for a signing or bothered to meet the artist. Whenever I go to these signings, I tend to bring my sketchbook to steal the souls of the very talented artists that create the figures [...]

Toy Baroness Dunny and Party

April 3, 2008

0

[image taken from Kidrobot's flickr page] I have a huge list of updates that I haven’t been able to cut down for what seems like weeks. I have a midterm, tests and papers/stories due, so please pardon the lack of posts these days. I’m not sure if you’ve heard about Toy Baronesses GID Dunny? It [...]

Reminder: Mist Signing

April 2, 2008

0

Hola peeps. Just a quick reminder that tomorrow is Mist’s signing at Kidrobot’s Pirate store. I’m headed there because though I’ve met Mist a number of times, I keep missing him for a sketch. How do I feel about the figure? I really have to see it in person to decide is I really want [...]
