Making of Vinyl Toys….. Not all that impressive

Wednesday, April 7th, 2010

Ok, so I thought that the production of vinyl toys would be a bit more sophisticated than this video shows.  I just thought since the products that come out are so intricate, that they’d be, I dunno, more elaborate.  In the end it’s just some old Japanese guy pouring plastic into a mold.  wtf?  No robot arms making the plastic pieces?

If you haven’t realized yet, i’m really into toys that reflect some aspect of my childhood.  Whether it’s Star Wars, Comic Books, Robots, Ninjas, whatever… i’ll cover it.

This custom artist caught my attention (via SpankyStokes) with his custom Goku, Ryu, and Blanka (shown below).  His Flickr photo stream can be found here.  He gets a Geek Love Rating of 8.

24″ Super Shogun Stormtrooper

Friday, March 12th, 2010

Those of you with some paper to throw around, here’s a $300 (yes, xbox price) storm trooper to annoy the hell out of your girlfriends.  I’d probably put this somewhere in the bedroom with the arm sticking out, pointing to my wife’s side of the bed.  Geek Love Rating of 24, for 24 inches of geekiness (that sounded pretty bad).  Buy it here.
