It’s currently sold out, but I miss kids riding these. Now all they do is ride those battery mini-cars (some of them are cute, though xD), or just ride those Fisher Price plastic tricycles… or just play video games. LOL
Check it out at James Perse’s site.
Okay, not as cute as let’s say a super roundy hot pink scooter designed for Hello Kitty, but it IS cute for a brand like BMW. Plus, I would so totally get beat up if people see me riding one of these, but I would so totally want to ride it for at least one time. Check out more photos here.
I also want a green mint Vespa. LOL
xD
I just bought the whole McDull collection over at YesAsia xD, complete with a pre-order for the latest McDull film – Kung Fu Kindergarten… or McDull Ding Ding Dong <- buahahaha.
my mom will approve of that, though. She loved McDull.
And because YesAsia was offering extra special offers, I bought (finally) Battle Royale and Kim Ki Duk’s Breath, I just wished they had marked 3-Iron as well xD hahaha
crap, and then I wonder why I’m always pissed ass broke, eh?
And still, wanna buy more stuff xD – Wanna complete my Shunji Iwai stuff with Swallowtail Butterfly, which you should totally watch, because it’s oh so awesome.
3 a.m. online shopping it’s oh so dangerous~~~
Man, the Japanese~
I dunno if you remember the Tartaruga Folding Bike~~~
well, how’s about this?
designed by Shukuno Rintendo, they come in different models depending on the way their propulsion system works. Like the above Fire Trick Bob (please, don’t ask how this one might work, lol) at $10,000 USD roughly… yes, you read right- the Jokee at $9K, or the Aqua Trick Bob at only $8K LOL
Seriously~
Cutest thing ever!! The Lolo Pillow xD
There’s also the Chupacabra Pillow – buahahaha.
but £33, man~~~ each!
Then I got all “Hmm… I wonder what’s on deviantArt??”
I dunno if my wallet is, though~~~ xD
I haven’t bought anything non-Asian for… I dunno how long. xP
Wow, I still can’t believe I saw Bjork live, right in front hahaha for real. Nearly two years ago~~~ *sighs* – Anyway, here’s the link where you can see the video… it does get you pumping~ WEEEEEE
Continuing the trend on pricey stuff – yes, beacuse we love the economy xD –
*ironically* Thank you, Lainey… if it wasn’t for you mentioning Wong Kar-Wai’s In the Mood for Love, I wouldn’t have gone through all the Criterion catalogue and pretended to get a debt buying Criterion… because OH HOW I WISH I could buy more of those… especially since lately, so-called double-disc “special” DVDs have been SHIT.
Yes, I’m talking to you The Dark Knight 2-Disc “SPECIAL” Edition~~~
So… you know, just in case – gonna put this out there.

] – which I have on the cheap Tarantino edition. SHIT.
]But you know… any Kurosawa Criterion would be nice as well or Wes Anderson. Or you can be daring and buy this Twenty-four Eyes film (the 1954 film version of the made-for-tv film Yu did a cameo for…) or… you know something recent like Benjamin Button.
You know how I complain about the prices of regular items in Japan? Well, yeah… $30USD seems a bit too much to me, who has hundreds of albums and hundreds of DVDs. – You could say I have a pretty small fortune… 75% of all those items are probably not collectibles, but who knows… perhaps one day they’ll be rare items. Doubtful, but could happen…
Anyway, whenever I’m zapping and happen to catch Incurable Collectors (Coleccionista Incurable) on A&E, I think about the items I store away in my dusty room… and the ones my mom decided to give away *rolls eyes*
For example, I found this Franz Ferdinand signed copy of You Could Have It So Much Better from 2005 – nearly $150USD – It was, in fact, signed when the group performed in Vancouver and they had a signing session in HMV (used to be Virgin Mega Store). Does that mean I also have a worth $150USD signed copy of the album? NIFTY! And my friend (who went with me) has the companion signed VIP access pass.
Of course, we can get crazier than that… take John Lennon for example! A nearly $14K signed Sgt. Pepper LP, or… a John Lennon photograph by (and signed by) Robert Freeman at $12.5K, or… this John Lennon print at $5,5K, or a Yoko+Lennon Lithograph at $5,2K, or this REALLY cool Rolling Stone Lennon portrait by Ronnie Wood at $1K.
Still think you’re a crazy fan? LOL’ or are you intimidated a bit with those prices?
You know, just for kicks… take a look at these Greta Garbo items just because I like her so much.
This 1st Edition by Mary Webb which was read by Greta Garbo and signed at nearly $10k… yes, just ‘coz she wrote that. Or… this photograph that includes a letter (signed) to Garbo’s lawyer at nearly $3.5k, or simply this Garbo letter at $2.5k, or if you want to get simpler than that… you can always just buy a photograph of Garbo at just $695USD.
I wonder if… if I had the money, would I try to buy those items??? Would you buy pricey items and collectibles if you could afford it?
Yay! I got my Funhouse CD yesterday, and I thought “wow, I’ve got 5 P!nk albums.” I like to call myself (shut up, amy) Pink’s first Peruvian fan… which is not fact. Maybe… just MAYBE, there was someone who knew her and bought her album faster than me.
