It’s been a long time since I’ve posted about sneakers. Well, not really, I did write about the Tokidoki for Onitsuka sneakers– which, I’ll eventually get. I have however, been holding out on posting this image, because I’ve been trying to get my hands on a pair. Jon Burgerman teamed up with Nike to release [...]
I love expressing my love for vinyl artists through different mediums. What does this mean? I own tokidoki bags and pencils. I own Amanda Vissell, Tara McPherson, Tim Biskup (and many more) stationery sets. I have stickers, and shoes, Uglydoll shirts, etc. I like to show my love and appreciation for the art they bring [...]
I felt the need to post about this show, that is not being hosted in NYC, because my buddy is going to have a few pieces in it! The images and information were taken from ToyCyte, but I thought this would be a great way to congratulate Podgy for being listed in the show’s “artists” [...]
I’ve been waiting for the release of this little guy (and his super comfy speaker chair) since a little before NYCC, when I got the pleasure of seeing and holding it. Aren’t you jealous? I love tokyoplastic, will always be in love with their animations (Drum Machine is #1). The little lazy bum pictured above [...]
I hope what I’m about to say doesn’t just apply to the New Yorkers in the house; but, who grew up drinking $.25 juices? The term “juice” is being used very loosely here. Quarter juices were all the rage back in the day, and kaNO’s Bodega [referencing the shops that sold the juices] is really [...]
Oh, I swear, Flickr is the best place to find out what artists are up to. Charuca has recently added pictures of a custom she did for the House of Liu show at the APW Gallery. The show will be August 22nd, and will host numerous DiDi and MeiMei customs. It seems the designer, James [...]
Finally, an update! Please pardon my disappearance; I had to go away for work and then my internet went down. Anyway, during the weekend I recieved JLed’s newsletter and it contained a photo of his Golden Gamerita, which is now unfortunately sold out. She was limited to 150 pieces and premiered during TTF. I have [...]
Cleaning up my ipod nano by leo lau
I miss visiting the wonderful people of MPH. Unfortunately, because I’ve chosen not to work during the summer… I’ve shown loads of self-control so all my money could be spent during SDCC. I are a shameful character. Luckily, MPH is going to be hosting the beloved Julie West for (what I believe is) her first [...]
I think I will officially declare my complete and utter devotion to ToysREvil! Yeah, Andy brings me that many great news… I am your loyal servant!! [okay, maybe not so much your servant, but close] What news does he bring now? The unleashing of Tokidoki x Onitsuka x StrangeCo release. It’s Tiger tokidoki’s onitsuka mascot! [...]
Mad just dropped a bomb on his flickr, and a great one at that! Not only is he releasing his blue GID 10″ MadL (I know I’ve said this a lot, but MadL’s really are at the very top of my favorites list), but he’s also teamed up with ToyQube to release an exclusive design.
Can’t get enough of your favorite artists? Well I believe Fully Visual has found a way to display your love for your favorite artists even more. I just got word that The Art Liberation has placed lamps created by Amanda Vissell, Joe Ledbetter and Bwana Spoons on sale today. Each lamp will cost you $200 [...]
For those who don’t know, aside from wanting to go to SDCC for the toys and exclusives, I wanted to have a sit down with Max Brooks. I was introduced to the author through my Mr. who provided me with a copy of World War Z. [Seriously, it'll cost you $10 on Amazon, I suggest [...]
How could I have missed these news? Two days ago I got a flickr message from tokidokizenz.com, it seems they loved my tokidoki qee “hi” photo and posted it among a top 10? Either way, I immediately visited their flickr page and came across the image above. I love devilrobots’ tofu heads and this is [...]
I hate to break it to people, but during NYCC my Mr. and I were able to nab us a “radioactive” wee sticker. I don’t think we’ve taken a photo of it yet… but he’s made himself quite at home with us. I wasn’t aware that they technically weren’t on sale yet, and it seems [...]
Sometime last month, maybe longer, I finally attained some of the momiji dolls that I was in search for. UrbanOutfitters was experiencing pity for me and my lack of funds, and knocked their price down to $5 a doll. Well, now momiji has gone ahead and made their dolls even cuter. They’re releasing a special [...]
I will admit that before Peskimo’s collaboration with KidRobot to release their Bamboozoo figures (which I have yet to collect all 16), I hadn’t heard of this wonderful team. But, clearly, they’re going to change that, news of their latest prototype popping up on Andy Woo’s flickr have circulated the net like the speed of [...]
Ladies and Gentlemen, my truest and deepest apologies for not updating since Friday! I was busy taking out-of-focus shots like the one above during the 4th of July. I hope that all enjoyed the fireworks, even though ‘our’ country is going through many embarassing moments… I always enjoy a fireworks display, too bad I got [...]
In my head, I’ve written about the Heroes and Villains show already, but alas- I am wrong. I was distracted by Tim Biskup, as he is a participant of the show and all I can do is stare at his photo. *sigh* Someday, I will meet the man and tell him how much I long [...]
