Kamen Rider

Ksatria Baja Hitam! Belalang Tempur!
Those what we used to hear when we watch on tv long time ago (RCTI just started i think), most boys are crazy on this character, which i finally realise it was called Kamen Rider Black, part of the very famous Japanese character of

Kamen Rider series which until now still continue (with different characters every year). But the Black is the most cool design in Kamen Rider history beside my favourite, Kamen Rider Ichigo aka #1, i always like original or #1, and i always like the old/vintage related stuff (The Ichigo version, to 'henshin', he needs to ride his motorbike and run fast in order his belt's fan to move fast for transformation-indeed a cool and vintage things!)

I used to be a crazy Kamen rider fans, and collect most of Ichigo and Black version
check out my collection, the fun stuff is the hunting every single of 'em














Medicom & bandai








As for this week event, in cinemas we got new release of Jackie Chan's Karate Kid and old remake of one of my favourite tv show: The A team
Jakarta's Fair also already started and will be ongoing for around a month
for toy designers' fan we got munny custom and some introduction on tomorrow (sat) at 3pm, Grand Indonesia at Plastic Culture please do come! as i will be there too with all of cool custom people!
oh yeah, Lakers lost in today's game, sucks eh, but i still have a faithm Lakers will win this series and become the champ, go go!

The beauty of sneakers and toys

Last night, i got an offer for the Godfather x michael lau x mindstyle (classic version), an offer that i can;t refuse, so i made up my mind to order this beautiful figure, the price is a bit too high for me but we know Michael Lau is like the godfather of designer toys and i even haven't got one of his designer toys, beside Godfather is indeed a cool movie, (coincidently last night also got the screening of part 2 at HBO), here is the picture of the masterpiece (limited to 5oo pieces only) for more info u can check www.mindstyle.com





yup, it comes with a chair (and i might make one for the real size for me to sit.....i am in Furniture business!!)









The game 3 of NBA final just finished today, and Lakers won this game while it happened to be in Celtics and now the series of Lakers lead 2-1, 2 more to go, guys! but i admit it, this season of nba is full of surprise and excitement, please stay tune on friday for game 4 at espn, oo yeah the cool shoes that Kobe wore is awesome, it is the away version of Big Stage Edition, with lots of details on the shoes, for more info, check

last Nite are all about NBA final game 2 and MTV movie award!

The game 2 NBA final yesterday was not a good especially for Lakers and all the fans including me, in Lakers arena, Lakers supposed to grab another one win, while Celtics now already hold one, quite risky, i can't imagine Lakers gonna lose again, they should win, it's revenge time! no matter what, Ray Allen deserves my applaud, he broke a record for 8 3-pointers in a game, and the cool part he made 7 of 8, only on first half of the game...crazy huh
don't forget to check out the game 3 tomorrow at 8am WIB, go Lakers!!

in MTV on same time yesterday was an award show, MTV movie awards that surprisingly was broadcast live, MTV movie awards was known for surprising and fun stuff compare with Academy awards that a bit boring, this time around hosted by Asiz which i donno who but seems to be quite a funny dude, but my favourite one is the 'producer' Les Grossman, who was played by Tom Cruise (in Tropic Thunder), wow funny stuff, not to mention kissing scene between Bullock and Johansson, and many more

if u miss 'em, try check your schedules, it might screen again and again during this week
oh yeah those who wait for Jersey shore season 2, exclusive clip on latest Harry Potter, Last Airbender also don't miss them, and also kathy Perry latest song California girl is a must to see too

enjoy

Someone's junks are someone's treasure

In toy collecting, even on other stuff, sometimes the old and vintage stuff are the one that people intend to hunt, as example classic cars.....i love'em but for me to start this hobbies requires a lot more consideration especially space

As for old toys, i do have some (not that old) but some of u might remember them and u might thinking old times, good times.....

Here are some oldies that i still have at my home


GI JOE: a real american hero!!
these are the original ones, not the latest crap ones, i used to have many including the cool vehicles but now these what i got left
all these 3 are my fave:
Flint, Duke and Sgt. Slaughter (seen as a real life character in WWF-wrestling)

Flint is actually my very own first GI joe figure




The Simpsooons>>> love everything about this, Simpsons have already been with us like almost 23 years now..... and this figure is like the very old old one, not the one we know including the playmates and the latest kidrobot collaboration, still one of my fave, lucky still have it












MASK!
remember the cartoon series? where one vehicle can make into 2 modes of vehicles and this is the one i have left...very vintage huh? and i still got the driver (matt Trakker too - if only i miss on the cool mask) but still one of my treasure in term of toy collecting







Keep collecting 'junk" guys!

It is a bit like different atmosphere of shopping and more into urban, u should check the area out, it is on the east mall area level 1, The lomography shop finally opens in a mall, it looks nice in term of design, the Damn! I love indonesia also finally opens its own shop, before we only can see the merch in Plastic Cultre fx, i love the decoration of the shop, especially the area of famous people all together in one wall, the concept of involving Indonesia's people and art into a clothing line is already a good point, personnally i love the art of Batik, Gatot Kaca and etc. Win (also the owner of Plastic Culture) collaborate with Vj Daniel to have this unique yet a very nice concept for a clothing line. (not to mention some secret project that for me is pretty cool....hint: it's very limited!!)

Superman, The man of steel is just a superhero of all superhero, everybody knows him even maybe your grandma might know it, i used to be crazy of this character, i collect the comics and here are the toys, the left one is the limited one, that is 'angry version' of superman based on Alex Ross' visions, the way to get this figure is to buy around 50 copies of Justice #1 (for retailers) and u will get one, i just lucky enough to purchase from my fave comic book shop while i was in Melbourne, it's called Alternate worlds on chapel street


During my spare time when i was in school, i love to design a character on my own, sometimes create a cover of comic book and here are some sketch of my design and hopefully soon be made into custom figure This is just a sketch that i did from a comic book called Kaboom
I just called this guy '45"

Plastic Culture also opens in FX, which i normally go, i just like to go there even to go to cinemas (cheap and got more chance to get tickets) and even u can go drunk at blooming and minus 2. If u ever visit FX and GI, don't forget to visit these cool shops and if u r lucky, u got to meet the owners Joshua and Win, and ask them to explain the fun world of designer toys, (don't get me started in explaining the addictive of buying blind box toys), just ask them! i ask them and here i am in the position of falling in love with designer toys over and over again

oo yeah for those who haven;t follow my tweet please do @tomat45 (d0n't ask me why i got that nick since i was a kid, but for girls......just ask :)
