Welcome at FreeTime Toys

Hello everybody and welcome here. This blog will be dedicated to the few toys projects I will do during my free time. You can expect some toys rehab, some design adaptation and some brand new design.

If you are here you probably know my taste for Jumbo Machinder, so most of my projects are related to those big guys. Hope you will enjoy it.

What I have on my mind

A few days ago there was an auction for an uncomplete toy.
To be more precise it was this toy:


The Hasami Jaguar, one of Kamen Rider's vilains and one of the ten Popy vilains.

As you can see he's missing a leg and maybe you saw it a few times for sale as it seems that nobody wanted that uni legged toy. I was looking at this poor guy and something came into my mind. Something weird, it was a clear vision.

So today I present you this vision for your very own pleasure. Because it's not always about toys but also just doing fun and stupid stuff:






Well I can finish by saying that I've win the auction with not much fight going on and this project comes on my 'to do list' of things I want to do, but it can be a pretty nice challenge and I can't wait to start working on it.
There's going to be a few post I thing about that big guy.

freetimetoys.com

Hello everybody.
No images today, but a funny little story. When I've launch this blog I wanted first to create a website to show some of my toy projects. The name came quickly but after looking for the .com, the site was already taken and was for some kind of adult site, you see what I mean....So I've decide to do it with a blog here.

But it turned out that the site shuted down and the name was available again. I had to bid on an auction to get it. Funny as I get most of my toys on auctions, and I had to do the same for the website.
So now I've secure the site and redirected it here. Maybe one day there's going to be a real website, but that's for a future somewhere.
