  • Kubrick Lost

    I’m a big fan of the TV series LOST — it’s the one show I watch religiously, every Friday night with my wife, as soon as a new episode is out — and here’s a surprising merch tie-in, Kubrick figures of the main characters from the show. Now, as much as I love Kubricks and…

  • Carnimals

    Lisa has a post up about these toys/figures called Carnimals. I just think they look cool, but there’s actually a wacky backstory to them — they live for 100 light years!

  • Koenji Animal Street

    Nice figures from Kaori Takahashi’s “Koenji Animal Street” collection, which are currently being exhibited at Gallerie Juillet in Koenji until August 14. Via Paul Baron.

  • Brockmann Figures

    Added these two Brockmann figures by Groovisions to my collection the other day. They are part of the Brockmann Extreme series. I picked them up at the Shin-Marunouchi Building, at one of the select shops on the 5th floor.

  • The Wonderfulman

    I picked up this figure, gacha-gacha style, at Beams T a couple of week ago. There’s a collection of them, designed by The Wonderful! Design Works, in a few different colors (black, blue, and gray). They were produced for Yujin’s Time Capsule series.
