A new hobby.. A change of taste.. And Interest..

It has been a year since my last update, and my interest on toys slowly fade away.. Somehow, action figures still amazed me to no end especially the astonishing Hottoys, to name a few.. It is time for me to move to the original hobby, the most sought after "junk of metal", the bond of man and machine, here it comes.. Superbike! In my case, it may properly called Street Bike due to nature and purposes of this bike.

It all started in an ordinary day a few years back, and maybe a decade or two, a young me still riding a skeletal frame with two tires called bicycle. Young at heart, always spacing out dreaming about the cool stuff which way too much for me to afford during that time, including the 'superbiking' thing such as today. Brought up in so so family, which father is 8-6 salary-man and mother as a full-time 'financial planner' at home, nothing much to share but an ordinary routine as a normal kid but with an exaggerate demands.

Just to make a boring life's story of mine become short, now I'm already 28 years old right now. And guess what, now I already owned a naked bike (some will called it super bike), quite a good bike for me, especially for daily commute or travelling for some distance from home. Fully imported from Japan, built by Kawasaki, and the most important thing for me, it is affordable and looks good. Powered by 4 cylinder engine, the exhaust sound output is super cool, and quite uncomfortable for me when stopping at traffic light, due to 'public attraction' during red light.

Please feast your eyes, behold, the z750, 2012 edition.

McFarlane Battle Damaged Robocop 12 Inch

My first impression after got a glimpse at this figure a years ago (at toys store of course!) was highly remarkable, uncommon and extraordinary, starting from the way he was packaged, paintwork, details especially damaged part, and also his backdrop (even the price is good enough). In my mind back then was, "McFarlane, I'll be your fan till the day I die"... And it stays till present.. Because they're affordable!
On the day that I got this figure myself from some guy from xl-forum (malaysian hobby forum especially action figure related), I bragged to all my fellow friends, describing the awesomeness of this figure I just bought, even if they wasn't interested in a slight bit. How crazy I am when come into the world of toys. ::sigh::
Till present, this fellow friend still in his box, untouched, and I already made a couple of photo shoot for him, just for a memory, the bond of man and things.
Briefly, this fellow come with his own display stand, or more like backdrop to me, one remarkable "big" gun from the movie, and his armor is severely damaged due to battle. See it for yourself the entire movie series, you may noticed which part he come from. Once again, I need to mention, the astonishing paint job that made the figure so real as they shown in the movie. The color cleverly choose, and blend together with the entire diorama.
Enough from me, here's several photo i kept, and I gladly share with u guys.

Tough looks! Murphy's from OCPD!
Details and paintwork to admire!
Close enough to a real thing, I mean on TV!

Note: This figure already sold to good fellow who is a collector himself. Take a good care of my partner, buddy!

McFarlane Spawn i095 12 inch

In 2004, McFarlane store already released the 6 inch scale of this fellow, one from the series 25 set, and directly materialized from cover art issue 95, and codenamed i095.
In 2005, once again, this iconic figure re-released in 12 inch scale, that came with highly detailed sculpt compared to the original 6 inch scale. Nowadays, this one become one of the most favorite figure in 12 inch scale, in line with W.O.R, Commando, Gunslinger and Flying Spawn (Mandarin Spawn too).
I'm done writing here, now it is time for some "show off", just for you guys, the "spawniac".. Have a pleasant viewing OK!


His cape looks awesome!

Unlike any others Spawn, this is one of the original appearance of Spawn character! Purist hooray!

Same as Wings of Redemption, this figure stand on his own display stand!

McFarlane Spawn Wings of Redemption 12 Inch

Ever took a glance into this series? I bet you already own this one, do you? The Wings of Redemption, as good as his name, this figure come with highly detailed wings of angel (if I may called that) that sprouted from the back of the dark hero, Spawn.
This figure already released in Alternate Realities series, in 6 inch scale, if I'm not mistaken, in series 21. Till now I'm not lucky enough to have that one into my collection. If there's one on eBay, the price is unreasonably high, for a 6 inches figure, maybe due to rare and availability of the figure in the market. 
As I'm already have this 12 inches one, proudly I want to share with you guys, the breathtaking art of redemption, Spawn..


Beauty from the dark perspective!

Detailed sculpt for his body!

  
This one come with pose stand!

Till present, I cant manage to get this fellow out of his box due to my way of collecting, MINT IN BOX, especially for this kind of figure, hard to get and scarce in market nowadays.

McFarlane Spawn Gunslinger 12 Inch

One of the famous Spawn in 12 inch series, the comic cover art from issue 119, Gunslinger Spawn.. Super detailed sculpt and cowboy theme, match together with accessories, make this figure one of the most valuable collection for Spawn collectors like me..

Here's some photos for you to appreciate..


Nice packaging and description!

Close up to show the detailed of the spawn body!

Realistic accessories and nice painting job!
