Sorry for the late video.
“Sky’s the Limit” has to be an uplifting song. I wish Biggie was still around…RIP

Remember those days when you were just a little boy playing with GI JOES? I spent hours and hours as a kid playing with my Gi Joes, making people kill, blow each other up, save the world, etc. I even was pretty good at making sound effects.
Face it, as a kid, I always loved toys and I still do. However, there was a lack luster of color or details in almost all the toys I had as a kid, so I would end up customizing or painting them. My skills at the time were horrible, but as years pass my painting skills got better and better.
I never really grew out of toys, I just went to different genre of toys. Apparently, now I’m back into figures, but more so highly detailed and articulated figures…hell call me a nerd, but this is what I have been doing and collecting.
My 1:6 Ninja, first customization for an action figure
Don't mind the JLed toys in the scene
I basically made the Ninja Arm and Leg Armor out of scratch. I even added a realistic rope to the grappling hook. Initially I wanted to sculpt a head, but that turned out to be more than I could handle. I then wanted to sculpt a mask, still my skills couldn’t make it the way I pictured it. I then wanted to make Ninja Tabi boots, but my I super glued my fingers to the glue tube….yeah I wanted more to happen, but I’m still happy with the way he turned out.
Hong Kong SDU figure, I added the Dunkle Shoes.
Close up of the kicks
Basically the only thing done here was the addition of the Nike Dunks. If you guys remember, I have a competition with my friend 50Yen regarding mini kicks. I do believe I just one upped him. Sure he has more mini kicks than I do, but I damn sure know he doesn’t have a figure that could wear them. As sneaker heads say, “whats the point of having kicks if you dont wear them?”
Oh no I didn’t….let’s wait to see what Bui has to return.

I know this isn’t a super old song, but this has the old school feel to me. I really wish Aaliyah was still alive, her music and voice was nothing less than soothing.
I used to listen to this song a WHOLE Lot in high school.
RIP Aaliyah

A few months ago I presented Tasha’s newest single “Please Don’t Go.” I’ve had a feeling that a male version of the song was going to come out, and I am correct. Enjoy

Yes it is true, Bruce Lee was one of my idols growing up. What can I say, I love Martial Arts.
I was lucky enough to acquire this Bruce Lee 12″ figure by Jason Ng.
Box detail is on point
Kung Fu Grip!
And to my boy Bui, you can’t get those Bruce Lee Kung Fu Shoes….

Not too long ago, Cindy, an old friend, said that I remind her of Tae Yang, maybe it’s the way I dress and that I like to dance.
Here is one of Tae Yang’s video that I find pretty impressive. His dance moves are pretty intricate and I haven’t seen a video from him that displayed this much dancing. I’m pretty surprised that his control is on point.

There’s not much for me to say, but clearly I think I would be a better singer/rapper than these two goons. One, the dude in the black has straight jacked teeth. Two, guy in the red BBC jacket is flossing super Viet status by wearing only a wife beater underneath.
The fact that these guys are using autotune makes it even worse. This makes me feel ashamed, yet happy that I am not like one of these guys.
I love my language and my culture, but really? Vietnamese hip hop isn’t something that really sounds “hard.”

What can I say? I love the chorus…

Growing up watching Cantonese movies and video series allowed me to learn more about Hong Kong actors and singers. Hell, I can recognize more Hong Kong celebrities than US/American actors and actresses.
Growing up I’ve always enjoyed watching series/movies that included Leon Lai. He starred in a lot of action genre type stuff compared to the “I love you so much” type of entertainment. He is also one of the singers I used to listen to a lot as a teenager.
Here is a clip of him from “The Empress and the Warriors.” The actual guy singing the song is Leon Lai.
Here’s also another one…this song is pretty old, I think I got the cd when I was in junior high lol.
