Transformer Toys

Time to reveal another purchase from Tokyo.

This is from Takara's Device Label, a 2GB USB Memory, TIGATRON.

It has a twin Black colour Decepticon brother but it was still not on sales then.

Stuff from Tokyo

New find this year. Death Note, cute got 8 designs in mysterious boxes so this is the 2 I got this year.

Domo Kun! Tokyo Station Limited! One of my favourite character this year. Haa... and of cause Naruto Key Chain, missing Nin, Konoha. Made In Japan too.

Naruto Tokyo Tower handphone strap. Cute!

And finally Hello Kitty in the famour Black Egg clothing from Hakone.

More Nano Block

Earlier this year, I blogged about buying a Nano Block Set of the WWII Japanese flag ship Yamato.

Sad to say I still have not find the time to buid it. Maybe lucky for me, Haha.... I admit I took a look at the instruction for a couple of time and I knew it will not be easy.

For this trip to Tokyo, I found that Kawada came out with more Nano Block product. There is another super high level 1000 plus set of a Japanses castle (Like the Yamato). And they also came out with many more easier smaller sets.

I grab the Tokyo Tower and the Hokkaido Inu.


I told myself better start with the easier one and boy was I correct.

The Hokkaido Inu set took me 1.5 hours to complete! The blocks are quite small and you spent more time looking for time.

Anyway here is the finished Hokkaido Inu.

Tokyo Tower Here I come!

Coin added for scale.

My Toys

Saw a piece of Optimus Prime in a Toy shop 2 weeks ago and I though I got it. So went home and dig around and found it! Haha...

Think it is good to go through what you got once in a while. Its new discovery.

Here are some of my Toys collection. Er... though it is a good idea to take some photos of them to remind myself what I got.

Will try to do solo picture for them someday.

My "Cheong" Lego Chinhook and some nic-nac. Love the cute match boxes at bottom right from Japan.

The Lego (Made-In-Japan) Optimus is cool man!

Notice the classice original Sound Wave on the right. He.. My first Transformer.

I also love the LEGO Millenium Falcon Bag Charm on the Top Left.

Transformer Toys

In view of the Transformer movie, just to show some of my Transformer collection.

Shown here are my Binaltech collection. These are from Takara Toys company and gotta say the robots articulations are quite impressive.

Nano Block

Interesting find in Japan.

Its a Nano block buiding set of the Japanese WWII Battle Flag Ship Yamato.

basically it is the Japanese version of Legoes and each Nano block is about 4mm x 4 mm, claims to be world's smallest.

Good thing is the set is MADE IN JAPAN and I got it cheap at Y5880 when most shop are selling at Y7000+.

I think the finised product will be about 35cm long and look like I gotta find some space in the cabinet for it before I start my constuction...hee...

Aero Soarer

Got this TOMY aero soarer from HK recently. Haven’t really got the chance to fly it yet.

Cost me about HK$130 which is about S$20plus. Cheap! Saw they were selling the same thing in HK Toy R Us for HK$300!!!

Gosh you really have to know where to shop.

Basically it is almost the same as my helicopter, to be used indoor only. The plane is really light and is made up of Styrofoam and you charges it before you fly by attaching it to the remote control. It suppose to give you about 10min of flight time per charge.

Mini Heli

Bought the PiccoZ mini remote control helicopter over the weekend.

Quite fun trying to fly it around the house.

Still trying to trim the bugger and hopfully I can do that before I crashed it.

Transformer - More then meet the eyes.

ToNot long ago heard that the new Transformer Movie will be out next year. So just happen to came across the official website the other day and Man the sneak peak is cool!!

I am a Transformer Fan since young. I even bought the original Soundwave toys back in Primary school days. Don’t have lots of money back then but having my all time favorite Decepticon is real happiness.

I think I managed to catch all of the TV series and the original anime Movie. So this Transformer movie will definitely be on my must watch list in 2007.

A few year ago when I was traveling in Japan, I came across a high quality Transformer toys by Takara. Bought the toys and it really brought back memories. As I was pondering where to get the subsequent ones, I was lucky to find someone who brought them in from Japan at a reasonable price. So after a few more purchase later I am happy. Although now I got more spending power compare to the schoolboy me, I do not have much time playing with them now as I would like. Sad isn’t it? But at least they are there on my shelve waiting for me.
