Red Nimbus store opens to offer Toki Doki items, Kid Robot and Vinyl toys

P5075198
A new pop culture store just opened last weekend in Robinsons Galeria, the new store – Red Nimbus sit on the corner of Jump Street Wing in the mall and they offer and sell authentic Toki Doki merchandise – tshirts, bags and baby clothes, Kid Robot merchandise, Vinyl toys and Harajuku inspired items. Sandy of Comic Odyssey told me about this after visiting him last Saturday’s Free Comic Book Day and he shared that his brother Gerry owns the big store. (More Story Below)




I went to the store as quickly as I can, because I got fooled on the ads that I saw in Facebook and I thought Red Nimbus is a local online store that sells Toki Doki X Marvel comics tshirts, but its my fault for not reading the small text below that they will open that weekend. Its great to see the store with a complete set up and interesting items to check out, Gerry told me that its their soft opening and I saw him very busy carrying boxes and sorting out all of those Toki Doki shirts, just like his brother Sandy, they love to set up and manage the store on their own. No longer need to buy Toki Doki items online, here you can buy and select your design from clothes to bags and even gift wrapper (I think I saw that Toki Doki gift wrapper on a table glass)

I didn’t noticed the Toki Doki X Marvel Comics tshirts, I’m not sure if it is sold out, but I will make plans to visit the store again and chec it out myself, I want a Thor or Wolverine Toki Doki shirts hehehe. I also spotted a cute Toki Doki long sleeve shirt for babies, I saw one design and I like to buy it for my baby boy Ashton, it has a price tag of P1,500. Vinyl toys are also available like the ones from Kid Robot and Dunny, I have little knowledge about vinyl art toys but I recognize some of the designs being sold there. Now we have a new store that offers vinyl toys for hard core art toy collectors, you can also place an order too here, just look for Gerry in Red Nimbus.

I read in their Facebook updates and post from fans, that there are pitches from their fans to have Red Nimbus a tie up with our local vinyl toy designers and urban art creators. Thats a cool idea, but I haven’t heard an update yet from Gerry about that, but I’m sure he is open to support our own creators, but then…he might focus first on establishing the store. I love the store, very comfy to look around on the items, and Red Nimbus is branded as a clothing store and not a toy store, well for me..its a Toki Doki x Pop Culture store.

Here are some of my photos inside the store (take a virtual walkthrough hehehe)

A trip to the grocery this Black Saturday

nokiac30615
Its a crazy Black Saturday for me for racing against time and avoiding lots of shoulder in a crowdy grocery here in our city. I went out to carry out some grocery duties for the family and I have with me is a paper with list of items to buy and a pocket money. Its my first time to shop carrying a big list of things to buy.
According to the cashier of the grocery, they felt that it was Christmas, due to the crowd today in our malls.

nokiac30616
My big list

I love to shop in our grocery,but today our grocery is crappy due to the half of it is under renovation, food and other items were relocated and it took me a hard time to look for the coffee section

nokiac30618
I bought 1 kilo of liempo, and I told the lady to cut it in cubes, then the cutting job of the lady was disturbed another lady as she borrowed the meat knife from her…ughhhhh we waited for another minute for them to finish their business, and me asking myself…isa lang ba ang knife na meron sila sa may poultry section ?

The long line

The Billboard talk series starts here

image

I’m always fascinated by these giant billboards posted in the high exposure areas of EDSA, whenever I travel to Manila, I always check my window inside the vehicle and look up to see the new release of billboards. I always plan to have a separate blog to feature billboards, but I don’t have another time to create one and update it regularly, I decided to post it here exclusively in my blog.

Let us start some billboards that I saw before reaching Ortigas City.

Bench billboard feat. Angelica Panganiban in a pink lingerie
Here’s one hot billboard of Bench Body, This billboard is located near Cubao, Its a pretty sign standing in the busy road between Cubao and Nepa Q Mart. Some of my colleagues said that there might be a hidden photoshop edit of this photo. Hmmmm.. I’m only looking at the curves and the left leg, photoshop fail ????

Sony Internet TV
Sony is massively promoting their internet on TV, but I can say that the internet TV is here since 2010 when Samsung launch the first commercialize TV with internet. I know we have this locally made TV that has internet surfing capability, but looks like mass producing and lack of budget made it to disappear in my radar. I haven’t tried Sony Internet TV, I’m curious about it and I want to compare it to Samsung. I have a new Samsung LCD TV 1080 HD series 9 here at home, it has internet TV, but the problem is that our wifi can’t reach the part of that room. arghhhh.

Sign in Camp Crame
Saw this big billboard infront of the gate of Camp Crame.  The message says it all, but It will be better if they include a photo or a symbol to show justice to victims of crime.

P3179509
Chowking Halo Halo billboard
I have now this extreme hate against Chowking Halo Halo, the one we ate in Chowking, SM Bacoor gave us a 2 week pain in the stomach,  me and Lace complains a lot of stomach pain after a day, in the morning, that runs till 2 weeks. We suspected that the Chowking Halo Halo we ate that day in SM Bacoor.
I curse a lot in my mind whenever I saw this ad on the road, You know its weird, because, a month ago, We ate Goldilocks Halo Halo and I woke up the next morning being super fine and healthy.
hmmmmmm. Another blog writing project for the Halo Halo Summer special of 2011.

Ok that’s all folks… I have a mission on my next travel to Manila..
take photos of
1. Belo ad feat. Jinkee Pacquiao
2. That Sharon Cuneta ad ..with before and after body photo
3. Im not sure if that’s Hayden Kho in another perfume ad
4. Charice Pempengco ad of her own cologne
5. Zebra ad of Rockwell
6. Smart and Globe ads in Pasay.
7. and many more!
