Peter Kato’s Metal Fusion Turtle Tetsujins exclusively at myplasticheart!

April 25, 2012 Exclusive, Kaiju, My Plastic Heart, Resin, TrustPigs No comments
Wow, I'm loving the look of these new Peter Kato colorways for his "Metal Fusion Turtle Tetsujin." The classic robotic look is very appealing in general, but that transparent orangish resin really does it for me, like some nuclear energy powering the beast. I think I like the Metal Fusion Silver (right) better than the Orange version (left), but it's a close call. Not only are these these 2.5"-tall figures hand-cast, but they are completely hand-painted in metallic colors… including that myplasticheart logo in their chests. They are dropping tomorrow (Thursday, April 26th) exclusively in the myplasticheart web shop (and physical location, if you live in NYC).

Toys Online – Find the Best for Your Little One

April 18, 2012 toys online No comments

toys onlineShopping online is the best thing that could have happened to anyone who enjoys shopping from the comfort of home. Especially for the new mother, who is busy taking care of the little one, shopping for toys online is not only easy but also relaxing. Toy stores across the world can be accessed at the click of a button.

Shopping online involves a lot of research and information gathering. One can compare prices, get best deals and get them delivered at your door step. Here are a few pointers to how you can shop for your baby’s toys online.

Search engine: The first place one would have to hit when planning to shop online is the search engine. To begin with, decide what you want to shop for – the category and use the keywords accordingly. Make the search word as short as possible. In this case, the ideal search phrase would be – best baby toys online. Other options are – popular baby toys, toys for babies, and the like. Each of these will yield different results. Some may be common though.

Visit popular toys online sites: There are several popular websites for toys, where you could directly go to for choosing toys online. Remember that the retail websites give you better deals when compared to the other online toy stores. They also have a wider range of best sellers from the best brands. Check out online auction sites for lowest prices.

Check for safety standards: Once you have chosen your toy of choice, it is time to check for its safety. Some websites are consumer safety sites that help figure out if the selected toy or toys are in the list of hazardous toys or not.

Compare prices: Once you have selected the toy and ascertained the safety standards, the next move would be to see if the toy/toys are available on other sites. See how their prices compare. Look at the product guarantee and delivery policy, and then zero in on the best place to buy it from. Always factor in the shipping costs before making the final decision.

Validate the site: Once you have finalized on the deal, cross check the website for its authenticity by calling the contact number mentioned on the website. Check for the physical availability of the toys as compared to toys online to avoid undue delays in delivery and disappointments.

Discounts on bulk purchases: Some retailers offer free shipping on bulk purchases and also coupons and other freebies on such shopping. Check out for such deals. Check also for the taxes levied by the dealer. Based on the location, taxes might differ.

Feedback: Last but not the least, check out the feedback and reviews for the seller. This will minimize your chances of falling prey to fraudulent sellers of toys online
