My vinyl toys collection 2

Caty — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 11:21:56 +0000

My 1st ever collection of Dunny Series 5 is finally here. I bought the entire case of 25 and got 9 duplicates designs: 2 Devilrobots, MAD, Reach, Toofly, Aya Kakeda, Amanda Visell, JK5 and Sneaky Raccoon.

Actually I am not a die-hard Dunny fan and simply collect them just for fun as most of the design looks pretty cool. Since I am relatively new to vinyl toy collection, I didn’t know that even if I purchase the whole case, it does not guaranty to get the complete set (I realized that only after I bumped into kidrobot forum). I managed only to get 16 out of the 19 set. But guess I am still super lucky, I have the 1 of 600 Golden Tickets redeemable for an exclusive, 3-inch Huck Gee Dunny. This make up with the disappointment in collecting the complete 19.

I bought the following Tokidoki "Coca-Cola A Better Tomorrow" Trexi series from STCC by chance. Too bad I did not buy the other trexi from this series as they are all so adorable. Find out more about this series here. Look at the Bollicina in red. What I got here is the Bollicina Silver version, very limited edition.

Next were the pictures taken from Devilrobots, a design team of five from Japan which led by the art director Shinichiro Katai.

Devilrobots specializes in graphics and character designs and the most popular character of their is To-Fu Oyako as shown in pictures below.

The front left is the To-Fu for Tokidoki.

An adorable 16" Gum To-Fu.

What a colorful wall of Devilrobots creation.

There are some other toys by Devilrobots which I have seen from other booths as shown below.

Next was the comic artist Gary Erskine from UK.

Madcap is a platform devoted to aritstic conception and collectable objsects.

Pictures from the various booths at the hall.

Well, come to the end of the STCC. Although I have still tons of photos in my collection but would not be possible to show them all here. Anyway, there will be another post of Tokidoki Live Art Demo by Simone Legno, stay tune to my blog.

Singapore Toy & Comic Convention 2008

Caty — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 02:44:10 +0000

The first-ever Singapore Toy & Comic Convention 2008(STCC) was here from 27th to 29th June 2008. This was also the first international event of its kind in Southeast Asia to showcase the latest pop-culture trends in design, toys, comics, animation and gaming. I went down there on Saturday afternoon and snapped tons of photos from Tokidoki by Simone Legno and others e.g Devilrobots, Nintendo, BANDAI, Hasbro, Wizards of the Coast, Medicom Toy, Toumart, Madcap and more.

When I reached the entrance of the convention hall, I was first greeted by an Artist Graffiti Wall which was the collaborative artwork by artists which include my all time favorite Simone Legno(Tokidoki), Pete Fowler, Gary Erskine, Mori Chack, Kika and Nada, Devilrobots, Touma and more!
You can read more details about the designers at the Walk of Fame.

So, the first booth that I went to was of course the Tokidoki booth where sales of tee-shirt, necklaces, earings, caps and uchiwa were available.

I bought a bunch of vinly toys to display at my home, ounch, my wallet was “injured”!

Time for Simone’s autograph signing session.

Here was his completed sketch, for me.

Reaching the end of Tokidoki session from my photo album. There was one of the vinyl toy by Tokidoki was seen at Devilrobot’s booth, so will include that in the next section. I will probably put up another post of my vinyl figures collection in a later date.

Part 2: STCC 2008 The Devilrobots “mission” and others to be continued…
