"I collect toys and I love photography. Combine the two together and you’ll embark on a journey filled with fun, adventure and new discoveries every time you go out and shoot. I’m no pro, but I’d like to share with you some of the things I’ve learned through experience, research and experimentation as I went through my own journey in this fascinating (and did I say fun?) photographic field."

3A Michael Lau 12"

"3A Michael Lau 12" figure SDU ThreeA authentic" eBay sale $300

I ventured to a little store by where I work and managed to snag something that might be worth some money. An old 12" Michael Lau kit I remember seeing back in the day. Hand made shoes, custom head sculpt and some awesome accessories.



MUCH thanks to Robin at Heroes Club for helping me put this image set together!

Jim's Dollhouse Printables

Nice little site with various printable items for scale figures and locations.
"PLAYSCALE" is the area for 1/6th scale figures.

Zombie Stand Off at work

The upside about having a bookshelf at work, but not having enough book items to need it? ZOMBIE ATTACK area at work! I was looking at this the other day and thought that I might work up a little background for this as well. BIOHAZARD signs, a door...etc. Nice to look up here at work while dealing with work issues and see the battle raging on while I think to myself, "Well, it could be worse I guess." :)

Black Lagoon Kitbash: Holster is finished!

I just got word that the custom hoster I had made for my BLACK LAGOON kitbash is ready for shipping! Murray from CORRIGAN HOLSTERS did an amazing job!
This holster will go on the Revy figure. Completing the figure with a tattoo on her arm and some of the Triad gun hands - she is called Two Hands for a reason, after all! - will make me a happy boy....until the next bash I wanna do, of course.... :)

DEAD CELL: Jade Van Helsing figure from Triad

This is the latest offering from Triad Toys and it's looking cool so far.

I got one of the Triad figures a while back and they are sturdy little things, but the price point makes me shiver a bit. Like all figures of this style now, the price is in the $120 range and it puts it above and beyond what I'd spend on something that has no emotional tie-in for me. However, as figures go, I think this shows more style and "cool factor" than the Black Widow figure from IRON MAN 2 which looks like she's just...confused. :)

Nice stuff. However, if I'm going to drop many dollars on a figure, I think I'd go with something that had more of emotion tie to what I dig like the IRON MAN MARK III or the APEXPLORERS SPACE ADAM figures.

Cool figure, however. Toss in a vampire or three for her to fight and you'd have a lovely little set!
