It's nice to see someone else with a house that isn't pristine, white and airy. That Lucky Cat is much bigger than I thought he was.
dennis, cool baikin u have there! love ur colorful garamons, looking great in that cabinet. very inspiring collection, make me want to spend $ on toys right away.
I have a couple more old cases like that. There was an old mom and pop shop near our house that went out of business a couple years ago. Turned out the son new my wifes place of business which was a toy distributor here at the time and we started to get to know them. When they closed the store they gave me the cases. They are about 40 years old and were pretty dirty when I got them but I used to repair antique furniture so I took em and cleaned em up. Solid wood with mirrored backs and 1/4 inch plate glass shelves and rolling front glass, sweet. Got a cool old case for minifigs too. Only trouble is moving them, they weigh a ton! But no way I could have bought these here, easily $1500 for 1 in Japan.
absolutely awesome! Can we see a close up of your Anraku stuff?!? I love the Union 76 poster/painting - what's the story on that? Great display, super nice orange hanging shelves and a very tasty mix of vintage and modern pieces. I've got that same Modern Toys giant Gamera (in green) - it's huge. Even though I'm not much of a fan of Gamera toys - this one is amazing. I'm surprised more people don't have one in their collection.
They are a pair of paintings, here's the other: truly the most amazing hair I've ever seen painted on a Canvas. These painting were originally used as poster art for Union 76's "Goodwill girls". Sort of a gas station "Hostess" in the 60's. They are painted on silk, and I got them for a steal. I put them on layaway and a week after I payed them off, the antique store burned down! Truly my most prized possessions.
So much to love. The Exohead collection alone must let you sleep well at night knowing that no one else will ever have those super-awesome pieces. And then there's the 20 million other incredible toys.
So much sweet sweet eye candy in the PK love lounge! Man, there's something for everyone in there. Inspirational collection my man.
PK your collection is just amazing,it's all tha compliment's above and MORE!!! Hell I'm just speechless,so many beautiful piece's...
Yeah, I really like PK's taste and arrangement. And across such a wide range, vintage to contemporary. All over the place and yet it really works well together.
Looks like Ronald's been getting high on his own supply! Between you Doc and Moto, I'm really starting to be tempted by those Frankies. Especially that pink bad boy.
