A (QUICK) LOOK @ MY VINTAGE TOY COLLECTION!


Today on my lunch break from work, I ran through my collection room after receiving several requests to show what I had laying around in my collection room. This was spur of the moment, nothing was organized, I could barely see what I was filming, and much of my stuff was very dusty or just passed over in a blurry glimpse... but still worth a view!

TOY HUNTING IN TOKYO & PICK-UPS



I took my kids toy hunting a couple of times this month, and since the last video I did with them was well received, I invited them back to hang out while I showcase what we found!



I also joined my buddy Kurodon on a short toy hunting trip to a small vintage toy and junk shop on the West side of Tokyo for our Kentucky Fried Gaijin channel. It had tons of vintage toys from the USA like MOTU, TMNT & Star Wars, along with a variety of Japanese odds and ends.

DRUNK X-MAS GIFT EXCHANGE : KFG


Sooo I've started up a new YouTube project with friends here in Tokyo called, KENTUCKY FRIED GAIJIN, and it promises to have more regularly updated content, more variety, and better production (sorry about my recent "lazy-as-hell" videos).

We've kicked things off on a brand new channel with our very first video, filmed a day after Xmas, featuring a drunken gift exchange.

Please check it out, and SUBSCRIBE :)

HUNTING @ TOY CATS w/ MAD HUNTER



Last month I had the honor of meeting and toy hunting with the legendary toy hunter, Rodrigo "Mad Hunter" de Orduna. After following his videos for several years and doing some on and off correspondence, we eventually ended up meeting in Tokyo during his first trip to Japan, and going on a toy hunt at my favorite spot, Toy Cats.

There I introduced him to my good friend, and owner of Toy Cats Showcase, Ishii-san. Together, Ishii-san and I further educated Mad Hunter about the world of vintage Japanese toys from the 70's-90', such as Henshin Cyborg, Microman, Dragon Ball... and even some obscure Japanese Star Wars items!!

Check out the video of our experience together below (and don't worry, although the title is in Spanish, 99% of the video is in English!) Enjoy!!
