Hello Gang.
Yes, i know there are already a lot of dedicated toys thread here...do we need more? well, i just wanted to start a thread to discuss toys in GENERAL ( industry, news, blogs, etc...) which will probably will not be discussed elsewhere.

I just want to share some blogs on spore toys collectors - why these two ? well, look at their collection!! very very big toy collections . this is probably due to the cheap price of toys in spore ( singapore do not have import tax/duty on toys).
One good thing i learn from ken is that i will definetly want to create my own custom cabinet to display my toys, minus the hot spotlight( which i always thought was a good idea?!)

Also would like to know how do you guys keep your toys? in box or displayed in your custom cabinet/Detolf ?? post some pics......


Local Toys only forum
My : www.play.com.my
SG: www.sgcollect.com.sg



And also of interest, this was not covered in local or spore news but a group of otakus in spore protested the strong arm tactics of a local anime distributor which is threatening to sue ppl who download fansub. they staged a protest in a form of TOY photo snapping session. Whats really funny was that 4 riot bus went to check on this.... i guess the police were afraid of ultraman cosmic rays and HE Man power of greyskull....

Myself now in penang and also plan to build a custom cabinet once i get my house.

Anyone from PJ area here that can help quicksilve?

I can help you ask a few, those carpenters normally did the shelves and display for Ultimate Toys shop, very good their glass panels can hold up to 7-9 kg + and very good quality workmanship

Thanks for the offer. not so soon though.
anyone know any spore online toy shop like xl.com ? am planning to order some toys from spore.....

maybe more ppl should post photos of their cabinet?

some guy made a very interesting PC using his hulk figure. i wonder if anyone else have come across TOYS + PC mods?

Nice, but won't the heat produced by the processor would melt HULK?
