Quote of the Day: Design

You know youve achieved perfection in design, not when you have nothing more to add, but when you have nothing more to take away.

Toys in Tokyo


Found a new collectors' figures/models shop called BLISTER (good name). Anyway... here's the flier I found in my bag of purchases... None other than our hero Jack Bauer in action figure form! I like the mobile phone accessory myself...

In the shop were two Andy Warhol action figures from the same company, one 60s style and one 80s style. Imagine Action Man with a bad grey wig!

I bought some Kubrick 'Bearbricks' and a Star Wars Kubrick 'Snaggletooth' figure, which turned out to be a tres rare blue-suited 'cahse' (or secret) version... so I the little guy might well end up on eBay for a silly amount!

Polish Film Posters




Here are some pictures from an exhibition I went to in Ginza, Tokyo just before Christmas. The exhibition was of polish film posters, mostly of Japanese films. I love Polish posters, and these were great to see in the flesh!
