TAMIYA: The definitive modelers jacket!
di Frankie (01/22/2009 - 09:43)
Few days ago, visiting an Hobby shop in Tokyo, I discoverd a special Tankers "CABALLERO" - US M4A3 SHERMAN TANK Model kit + Jacket Set produced by Tamiya in collaboration with The Real Mccoy's. The price tag is 80.000 Yen but I'm sure this should be bought by every serious modeller out there... (not, I'm not serious, since I still prefer to use the 80.000 yen to buy Japanese AV DVDs and Bishoujo games in Akiba)...

CHUBU 01: NEW JAPANESE ROBOT
di Frankie (01/20/2009 - 01:00)
Kazushi Kobayashi is a Japanese 3D artist who created a CHUBU 01: a robot from a parallel reality post war Japan, where the bots are the primary transport system. The style of these post-steampunk machines is so unique that the Tokyo Cultuart design shop in Tokyo (produced by the legendary BEAMS) selected it to be displayed in the Harajuku showroom.
The Chubu costs 28.000 Yen (ca $350): a pretty impressive price tag for a kit that needs to be build and colored before being put in our very own mecha collection.
