Hong Kong Toy Hunting

Yup, was in Hong Kong a about 5 days last week, of course managed to free up some time for toy hunting...didn't know alot of places to hunt...so went back to the place where my buddy showed me....In's Point. Its very near to the MTR Yau Ma Tei Station Exit A2....Less than a minute's walk from the exit.



Walked around the building...basically the shops on the 1st and 2nd floor sells collectibles, mainly toys...here's some Hot Toys ( 12" figures)


The highly coveted Iron Man Mark I...but will not be anymore once its reissued!! Hahaha


One of the few if not the only shop that has Transformers Vintage...Nice Superion Giftset, Vintage Kabayas, Scorponok...


Fortress Maximus C-114, Piranacon giftset, some pretenders....the empty space in front of Fortress Maximus previously stood what i bought...hehehe

D-311 Black Zarak, 02 x Victory Saber giftsets, God Ginrai, some lucky draw stuff...

Walking further led me to this! Thundercats Sword Of Omens!! Have been wanting this since young! Asked the price and found out that they brought in this from Europe then they customised the lights and did some repaint to it...the costs was too unjustifiable for me to buy...so gave up...anyway, i came back to Singapore and bought one of ebay...hehehe



After In's point, on another day, went over to Toys R Us....tons of Dragon year Ultimate Optimus prime....


special items counter carries, Encore Twincast/Soundblaster, Commenmorative Rodimus Prime/Sideswipe.



Another corner hides Encore Devastator, MP-10 Convoy, Henkei Rodimus, Disney label Mickey mouse...

Not impressive at all...and the prices area really crappy...you can forget toys R us if you're looking for reasonably priced transformers...




Went back to In's point after Toys R Us and wallah...they have new vintages!

C-306 RoadKing (dont know if i got the number right), C-112 Autobot Clones, black animated optimus prime...

C-131 Raiden Giftset!!





Last day, went to Sham Sui Po for a meal...along the streets were lined with shops selling toys and lotsa KO transformers...


Well, that's all for me this round...if you need to know where exactly is In's point, i'd be glad to guide...just gimme a holla...next up, my hauls in Hong Kong...
