Nice collection!

The World Is Mine.

thats pretty much all I know and that a lot of the searches I do on yja seem to generate lots of TWIM hits as well.

I have complete indifference to these but it's admirable to see a big collection of them.

Jesus. Are you missing any?

I have the orange Pumpkin Bomber in a Celga box somewhere in Japan, but that's it.

there's actually a ton more of these out there...including a large one that's almost 3 feet tall...problem with that one is it collapses at the joint in the feet from the weight of the body.

there's also a really cool "boo berry" one I;ve seen...

Isn't T.W.I.M. Hiddy's brother or something like that? That's quite a collection.

Nice focus. Toy Tokyo has a shelf of Bomber kids I check out everytime I visit, but it doesn't compare to this.

TWIM is a great company - very nice clothes. I bought my GF a TWIM jacket - super good quality - she wears it all the time.

The toys are nicely designed, but I think the line would have done better with a better variety of sculpts.

I had the pleasure of meeting Hammer-san in Nagoya a couple years ago. Very cool guy. Last I heard, though, the TWIM shop has closed.

Post Re: TWIM Army
Thanks for all the support. It has been a lot of time, effort, and money (did I say money) to get all of these. Some actually come from Super 7 back in the day. Some are secret base versions (black hedgehog), and yea, there are a TON more. The one with the brown hat is "suika" bomber, which is japanese for watermelon. The Japanese carve some insane watermelon, look it up. The pink mummy is probably the rarest, I heard there are only ten. I am still trying to fill gaps, so if you can hook me up, that'd be sweet. :D :mrgreen:

As for you haters, I don't go to your work and knock the dicks out of your mouth... :wink:
