Hey guys, what's up? Welcome to another video *dab dab dab dab dab dab dab Mhhhhhhhhhh

(7th most handsome man of 2017, ladies and gents)

I'm sick

Which is okay, because I wanted to make this chill video for quite some time showing off my figurine collection

Yes, that's right. Who doesn't want to know about my

*????????????

Manchild hobby? Who doesn't care about toys. I know you do

HHMmmmMmm!?

Hmmm MMMmmmmmmm

...Mmm. for real, uh you may have seen in the in the back

I usually have some figurines there, and I got a lot of questions about them, so now

I'm going to tell you and start off right away with the ones I typically have: the Kawz figurines

Badupbadup

Ba Da Bup!

Dabuuuduppbup

buh dup babowww

got got all three of them, baby

Marzia my **lovely** girlfriend gave me these for my birthday

I'm very happy with these. These are probably one of my favorite

and that's why they just look so good. Now Kawz is an incredible artist..

I... Uhh..

I've been following his stuff for a couple years

These sort of figurines would go for like 50 bucks(50$) back in the day

And I think now they these just one range from like $200 to

(only $399, pewds?)

500 maybe I don't know. it's insane how popular they become they've sort of became a hypebeast

Symbol almost which is really strange

I got this Kawz tattoo you a couple years back

A one-in of one of his figurines my favorite one which I actually don't own. It's fine

I haven't I have the tattoo

I don't need that... and I saw it in the background of like a DJ Khaled video

And I just cringe so hard maybe it's unfair for me to judge

DJ Khaled's opinion on art

But I just I think a lot of people just want these

For the not for the sake of the artist and the artwork just because they're... they're a symbol now. They've sort of become a symbol of

The hypebeast culture we it's a shame because I think Kawz the artist has a really interesting history. He started off as a

Graffiti artist just scribbling on top of ads

in New York City super cool stuff

but then I think he got promoted a lot by really big celebrities like Kanye West and

Pharrell Williams and

DJ Khaled, and I guess me now if you want to get one of these

I recommend watching out for fake ones

Make sure that the bottom has

Medicom TOI China, so it's signed if it's really cheap, it's probably fake

I've seen a lot of these go for like 20 bucks on eBay. It's fake. You don't want to get fake stuff

That's not cool. I love this one this so this is the version that has the intestine

exposed and the why I rub that so essentially it's a the Mickey Mouse undead version

I don't know. I don't know what it is to be honest. This is an amazing piece of art

Let's put them on the show. I mean come on. They look great. They look great

next one you probably haven't seen

It's a figurine

Custom-made from Japan. I bought it in this store called Mandarake (Mandarake Mon) which is in Tokyo Shibuya?

they sell a lot of custom toys and figurines and

Vintage toys as well, I thought this was a vintage toy

Marzia gave me this one as well, so Marzia paid for half of these my head screws. It's..

It can move its leg

This one is from KIKKAKE toy. They do different versions of these like different colors

Different stuff like that. I think they are about 23,000 yen, which is like

$215 or pounds which is a bit expensive?

Yes, but I always like to get one of these from Mandarake when I go to Japan as a memory of that trip

And it's worth it like I know

For some people it might be outrageous to spend that amount of money on a figurine, but I'm I'm very pleased with it

It's a fine piece of art, and I would never get rid of it.

Another...

Collectible type of figurine is this brick bear

You've probably seen these they do a ton of different variations of these. This is the Mount Fuji version

It's very cool. It's another thing I bought because I wanted to get a memory from another Japan trip

I've been five times now, and it never gets dull. I know it's kind of a...

*"sexy" voice* He's a dweeb. He just loves Japan, but how can you not?

It's so much fun. Every time I go

and I want to get a memory of a figurine so I got this one this one is probably like 50 bucks 20

Bucks some variations of these I swear like a thousand or five thousand they're insane

I probably wouldn't get more of these even though they're... You can technically collect like a bunch of different ones

(Who turned off the lights?? Hold meh!)

It's a bit too simple for me

I don't I don't really see the mass appeal of these to be honest as much as I do with the Kawz

This feels more like a collectible

figurine toy. Kawz's work seems more like

Artwork to me at least that's how I see it.

And speaking of which another gift from Marzia *timid chuckle*

I'm paying for (OOF dog?)

a Gary Baseman porcelain

figurine careful not to drop this

extremely detailed

Extremely beautiful. This is number...

224 out of I think 815

I think this one is like 500 pounds.

Pretty expensive , but it's made together with a porcelain company Lladro. I love this art

I love Gary Baseman's art. He's another very underrated artist

I would say compared to Kawz definitely check him out if you want to get some like cheaper

But still really cool figurines. This one is more expensive because it's a special edition, but I love this one

I just realized he has the eye that actually looks like that tattoo that I have

Hey, I got tattoos of my figurines how about that?

Gary Baseman does just like Kawz?

Incredible piece of art and paintings I mean, but then he got into 3d art

And I think that's where he really shines. I think this sort of stuff is just so cool

Again, this feels more like an art piece of art, then then a figurine or something like that.

I don't know

Next up we have--very proud of this one!

It's Gundam of Zhu ku, I don't watch Gundam, I just loved building them

I don't know if that's a shameful thing to admit or not

But typically I would say building models so basically I built this myself

Just putting all the pieces together

You have to build the skeleton and then from all the exterior it took me a couple days at least

it's not very well, built because

Pieces tend to fall off. I'm gonna try to be careful, but like it can go into rocket mode so we can

pull all these off, and then this should come off as well.

Does anyone care about this??

I care so shut up. You can open up the helmet you can take off the

*Pewds breaking stuff*

You can take off the the thing and then move this up

and you got a little dude sitting there, and he can go into his power mode and

*Power mode initiated*

There you go look at that

*OOF*

I think is like every single piece of this are just bits put together

So you're not really I guess unless you glue it

You're not really supposed to fiddle with it and has so many goddamn moving parts. It's ridiculous

I'm not making a great case for this, I... This is the only piece I broke, okay? Shut up

Someone's gonna make a 20 minute video explaining what I did wrong as a response

Listen! I'm proud of this be quiet. There you go. Look. he's fine.

He's fine

Zaku is fine. Anyway, I would love to build more of these

This is a perfect grade version, which means it's one to sixteen scale if you want to get one

I think this is like 150 bucks, but you can get a smaller version

I think like I said, I think building models is kind of lame (nice try, Pewds. Nice try), but just because they're so well designed these... so cool

It's like you get a cheaper really cool figurine.

Next up, we have this Godzilla figurine. Yes!

this is actually just a toy.

Uhm, for kids

I love Godzilla

I mean how can you not love Godzilla? You have a country that gets... that goes through two of the most horrific

Bombing of history and then out comes this metaphorical

figure

That is just so badass

but what I love most about this thing is that a lot of people come over and they look at this and

If you move the legs, it does that! and it pokes their eye out

It's hilarious

Next up is another figurine for my second trip to Japan

Mandarake again; it's a custom toy. I love this one. I have no idea where it's from I don't know what its referencing, but

Illuminati, amairite? Look at that

I love how

asymmetric it is.Like all the detail it really feels like it's... it's

Personally just hand-drawn and made which I think is really cool.

obviously, that's not the case. That would cost I think a lot more, but I think it also has some Nazi symbols on it (Noooooo)

Which is a bit strange... and these titties? I just realized. But it's probably the Buddhism, but for the sake of ad revenue

I'm gonna put this one away now

Thank you

Remember what I said about the fake Kawz you gotta be careful because this was gifted to me as well. This is another gift

...and

It's fake. It has no sign at the bottom, the plastic feels kind of cheap,

It's kind of squiggly

Like you hear that? *clacking and clicking*

Which is a shame, because I love this art. I love this figurine. I'm not okay with art theft

I'm very strongly against it, but since it was a gift it can't be helped

It's a shame, but I still love it. It's still it's still a nice gift

I can't... I'm still very happy with it, but yeah, be careful if you're buying

Figurines to make sure you don't don't get fake ones.

My third trip to Japan, I got this bad boy

Mandarake as well

So cool. I thought this was a vintage toy when I bought it

But it's a it's a custom made from Japanese symbols. I don't know what they are. I love the scarf detail

I guess it's some sort of desert monster

It's like a scorpion or something like that turning to a... I don't know. it's very cool

That's all I know: it's very cool.

Come on.

Got another original fake Kawz figurine

I love the design of this one

This one is real. I feel like they... Kawz literally

was like since these figurines got so popular. He was all just like you guys would literally buy anything

I put out

You know I can-- I can just mess up the figurine you guys will literally still buy it and

Lo and behold!!

This is worth hundreds of dollars. I love... it's still incredibly...

Well-designed for being just a mess and it stands up fine like

it's

It's really cool. I really love it even though it's kind of kind of a statement. I feel like against

Against the consumers or its movement I suppose now from my latest trip in Japan

I didn't pick up any thing from Mandarake. I did buy this Blame! figurine

It's Killy. Blame! of course, he is the best manga of all time

It's a shame the anime wasn't that great, but at least you get some cool figurines out of it

And I'm very happy to finally own some Blame! merchandise, or

blam

I also got the Safeguard which is hilarious if you want to pose it I

*pewds amusing self*

I don't think this is how this toy was intended, but it's very cool

I didn't particularly like the Safeguard design in the.. in the anime, but the figurine looks really cool, actually.

I also got this, you probably saw in my blog

It's not a Gundam. I'm such an idiot

It was in the Gundam section of the store, so that's why I got confused and everything is in another language

But it's really cool. It's got the little guy on top which is dope. I can open up here

And I think there's a guy in there as well. Yeah, it is so it is kind of a it's like a mecha

The eyes lit up as well

Which is pretty dope. Very happy with it, nevertheless. Even though it wasn't what I wanted.

I also got this golden Gundam, which is so cool. I built this as soon as I got home

It looks so sick. This is like 20 bucks

Amazing. How cool is that? Come on.

I don't know. Just a quick show, because I realized I probably have been going on for quite a while

I think the back comes out

Yeah, it does. I guess this is like his wings or some

So cool. Drink (water, kids) every time I say "so cool" in this video

LAST, BUT NOT LEAST!

Tadaaaaaaaa

My favourite figurine. It's not a figurine you can probably tell that it's Gary Baseman, again

I have a Gary Baseman tattoo as well, actually. I love his art

This is like his... his Icon figure, Toby.

And he sold this... I think I saw a tweet or something that he's selling these and I was like

WHATAMIGONNADOOOOO???
