October Purchase (2) - (Disguise) Thor Hammer

It finally fell from the other realm today... Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.... Hahahaha.... About 2 weeks ago I bought a toy Thor's Hammer... look at the 3rd picture below, it states "Thor Hammer"... ok, you win, call it the Mjolnir,... from eBay. Normally the price is quite expensive, but I was quite surprised to see it at this price (SGD$36.16, including shipping)... The company that makes this is called 'Disguise' and I believe this is a sort of Halloween costume-prop but hey, the design details follow very very closely to the one in the Thor movie!

Here's the Mjolnir in package... opps, accidentally twisted the handle by 90 degrees, the "arrows" should face the side, as seen in the Thor movie...


The 4 main characters in the movie 'Avengers'...


Back of the package...


Mjolnir ripped out... Very nice finishing that really mimics the feel of raw metal surface... Length is about 16"...  Lightweight due to the soft plastics used... Only worry is the strap-joint at the end of hammer is not strong and may snap off easily... Hopefully not...


A closer look on the hammer head... The patterns are identical to that found on the Thor hammer in the Thor movie... Amazing...


Top of the hammer head... Some weird inscriptions....



Waiting to see if can complete eBay deal of Sengoku Driver this Sunday... Hopefully...

Mini Kamen Riders Exhibition @ OG Orchard (3) - Merchandise

The toys... finally... Hahahaha....

The DX OOO Driver... as mentioned in part 1 of the report, I remember I heard the scanner read out "Falcon! xxx (couldn't hear properly, shoud be Tiger, I guess)! Locust! Ta-to-ba~~..." So buy at your own risk, or if some kind soul who has bought this Singapore version can help to clarify please, thank you very much... By the way, I bought the Super Best version (scanner pronounces in Japanese) plus the Super Best Medal Set in Sim Lim Square at $140 altogether....






Forget to take the picture of the First Hero Series (FHS) O-Medals pack, which contains three O-Medals in a pack, to be used for the FHS OOO Driver or Medal-Shooter (see last picture)... Anyway, the picture of the pack can be found in my earlier post of my haul...




This is the FHS OOO Driver... Visual inspection suggests that the size is identical to the DX OOO Driver... and later successful fitting of FHS O-Medals into the DX OOO Driver adds more convince to the suggestion above... As mentioned in part 1 of report, this version's scanner has no real scanning function and will read out the combos randomly, though I am not sure if it pronounces the creatures in  Japanese or in English... I watched some Youtube clips and the scanner reads Japanese fully... Hopefully this "Singapore" version does that too... Hahaha....





Some FHS OOO Driver inside plastic bags are seen lying quietly in a corner, maybe waiting for people to redeem them... Anyway, anticipating the next Shengtai toy warehouse sales!!!! Hahahaha... Oh!!!! Last piece of information: OG People's Park has lots of the (Samurai) Red Ranger Battle Gear Twin Pack selling at only $15!!! Cheaper than it was in the last sales...

Mini Kamen Riders Exhibition @ OG Orchard (2) - Column Wall Displays

Actually wanted to tell them the heading is wrong... Because... "2000 - NOW" pictures should include KR Fourze, KR Wizard, KR Gaim, and not just end with KR OOO... or at least change to "2000 - 2011" to be more accurate... Hahahaha.... just trying to be funny here, no offence... :P














Can sense I was getting more and more impatient as I took the pictures right? Hahaha... Final part of report coming up - The TOYS!!!!!!!

Mini Kamen Riders Exhibition @ OG Orchard (1) - Intro and Cabinet Displays

A short mini (pictorial) report of the Mini Kamen Riders Exhibition @ OG Orchard which I went today... Let the pictures do (most of) the talking...




This version of the DX OOO Driver is quite similar to the Korean and Taiwan version... it pronounces the Taka, Tora, Bata using English, ie. Falcon, xxx, Locust.. !!!! I thought I heard wrongly when a kid was playing with a demo belt lying at the area, but when I hear it for the 2nd time, I was like... wow, luckily did not buy for my little nephew... Maybe it is just the demo piece?? Not sure.. but... buy at your own risk...




This is the First Hero Series version of the OOO Driver... the sound produced by the scanner is random, since there is no scanning function... The driver cannot be straighten horizontally though not sure if any masters out there can/will want to make some modding... Though I must admit this is good enough for a cosplay though..at such reasonable price, hahaha....






Toys of the past Kamen Riders!!!




The DX Faiz Driver is the Korean version!!!!! Hahahaha....





Can't seem to find the DX Kabuto Zecter...

Up next, the wall "posters"!!!

Took some pictures of the toys sold in Takashimaya Level 4... There is a corner promoting KR OOO's merchandise...


Some items on display...



They even have the KR Gaim's merchandise!!!!


If you look closely at the price of the Special set, it is more than the added prices of the DX version (on the left of picture below) plus the lockseed holder (picture above) ... weird...


DX Trigger Magnum and W Driver on sale.... Quite cheap...


LRS KR Agito Belt costs $20, and the Triple-Henshin (???) Belt set cost $49.95...

Waiting for the next toys sales...

October Purchase (1) - DX Metal Shaft, FHS O-Medals, KR OOO Soft Figure, TRU Exclusive Hello Kitty

Went over to OG Orchard to see the mini fair on Kamen Riders... and it is really mini... also bought some stuff...

DX Metal Shaft
Accidentally saw a review clip on this item at Youtube recently, and thought it might be still be available, but could not find this when I went over to OG People's Park nor OG Albert... Price is $19.95... Quite a drastic difference to its normal price...


First Hero Series: O-Medals
These are the O-Medals to be used by the First Hero Series items... 3 medals per pack... Their size feel almost similar to the DX counterparts, just 1 single layer as the inner medal piece, and of course no electronics chip in it. I tried putting them into my little nephew's DX OOO Driver and they fits in nicely. Price is $2.95 per (blind) pack with "Buy 2 Get 1 Free" promotion... My little nephew got the Latorata, Tajadol and Katagiriba sets, can even form the Tatoba combo too, lucky, hahaha...


Kamen Rider OOO Soft Figure
Very cheap, just $3.95, so thought of getting 1 for my little nephew... Very similar to the typical Ultraman (mini) soft figures, with arms articulation (and very slight waist articulation, if you insist) only...


Toys-R-Us Exclusive Hello Kitty
Bought this at TRU for my little niece... Cost $14.95... Quite cheap for a Hello Kitty merchandise...
